Pinocchio Christchurch - Tacky and poor quality

If you like paper tablecloths and tiny serviettes and have low expectations of food quality then this is the place to go.The saturday after Christmas was heaving-waitresses were stressed and the owner looked glum despite having a full house. My veal was surrounded with a thick white floury sauce and the accompanying vegetables were too hard to cut let alone eat. The 'roast potatoes' were tiny pale under-cooked cubes swimming in an inch of oil-I felt sick. A bottle of ordinary rose wine cost about £11-I buy the same for 60p in Cherbourg. Time for this place to be updated out of the 70's as food was not so good then either!
