H. M.

E Paradiso. This is the restaurant I visit very often. First of all the service is fantastic with the nicest Italiano in London and one of the best Italian cuisines you can find in London. My favorites include the spaghetti alla bottarga and crab linguine. Of course thier house wine is of a great quality. This is a place I can strongly recommend to all range of people.

I. K.

We had dinner here together and the food was delicious and very fresh. We took two specials and a pizza and the wine of the month. The empty plates were a great sign. The service was friendly, prompt and accommodating for gluten free dishes. Recommended.

A. G.

Oliveto is probably one of the best restaurants in Central London. I can say this because every part of the experience has been perfectionised. The waiter was extremely helpful and was able to give advice and good information regarding the food available for customers. The toilets were incredibly clean, and the service was speedy. The people followed all instructions set on the reservation and in-person, and I would totally recommend this place.

A. L.

Thank goodness for this place, providing great service and classic Italian food, done the right way! Don’t be intimidated by the white linens and stemware for lunch hour, it’s a great place to order food at a decent price. I really do miss the crab pasta!

M. B.

Friendly and efficient service. I love a restaurant which suggest today's special. Some pastas which I never see in other Italian restaurant are on offer too. Wines are a little expensive side, but the one we had (chilled Valpolicella) was reasonable and good.

This is the best Pizza outside of Italy best in the UK. All Italian staff who know their onions as well as being friendly and attentive. If you don't try the Truffle Pizza you're letting yourself down. Fresh black truffles from central Italy with the most beautiful fresh taste. The cheese board is also a recommendations and even includes black truffles shavings in one of the cheeses. Fine fresh ingredients, good staff and even better wine.

As stated previously, the reviews given today (26.11.21) are given by people who viewed a TikTok live, and are boycotting. A lady visited the restaurant this evening, complained continuously about how terrible the food is and was quite rude to the staff members. She then tried to leave without paying. Once she left, she tried to re-enter the restaurant and was escorted out by a customer, not staff. None of the staff touched her. I watched myself and think the staff dealt with the situation perfectly fine.

J. H.

This is my favourite restaurant in London. It's probably my favourite restaurant in the world. All of the pizzas are outstanding but the pizza ai funghi operates on an unassailable level. Every ingredient in every dish is somehow tastier than that (apparently) same ingredient anywhere else. The style of cooking, as at all Mauro's restaurants, is deceptively simple but masterful. The staff are lovely. After coming here for over a decade I'm delighted to see they even have outdoor seating now!

A. A.

Me and my sister went a couple of months ago together. Food was good and the staff were nice. Thanks for a good experience! Edited: I just received a notification on my gmail to see that the owner had replied. I clicked on and saw the negative feedback. I'm shocked to see these recent bad reviews from all these trolls. I heard about what happened with this woman and the unnecessary drama that she caused. I wasn't there to witness what went on, but I can never imagine the staff at this restaurant abusing anyone, physically nor verbally.

A. C. F.

Food and Service was really good. We had several pasta dishes between us and the pizza was delicious!

T. H.

Great food and friendly service! Slightly expensive. So be careful with the starter which seemed to be a little overpriced. Pastas were absolutely devine. Pizzas from a distance were huge and looked great too but we haven't tried them yet.

G. B.

Amazing food. We had a pizza, the crab linguine and the lobster pasta. It was all excellent. Lovely service. We will be back.

A. P. S.

Lovely Chelsea local with an intimate atmosphere.Great house red to accimpany delicious pizza.Nice clientele and friendly service.Will definitely go back.Easy to park outside too.

The Drunk woman causing a disturbance in your Restaurant with foul language is always doing this when she eats out. She always complains shouts and swears so she does not have to pay.She goes by the name Chelsealeeart on TIKTOK her REAL NAME IS LEANNE MARTIN.

L. G.

I have been coming to this restaurant for the past 20 years. Never once disappointed, great food and quiet atmosphere.

R. M.

I love their pizza, it is delicious and authentic. The only complaint is that the Cos lettuce salad always has so much dressing on it and it was not edible last time it was delivered. There is no way to make a comment like sauce on the side through Deliveroo. My suggestion is that the restaurant puts it on the side.

A. J.

Super pizzas and dessert. It's a busy family-friendly place, but the staff are never less than charming, even when rushing. Special shout out for the dessert wine recommendations!

D. N.

The food enhances and keeps the Italian/Sardinian traditions alive. The staff was incredible and stayed long after their shifts to allow us and other customers to finish our dinner. Lovely atmosphere, great food, overall would highly recommend and would travel to eat here.

A. M.

Brilliant! We had an al fresco dinner outdoors and it was a great experience - authentic Italian food, with great tasting pizzas. Loved my 4 Stagioni! Service was friendly and professional, would go again👌🏼

M. H.

Absolutely my favourite pizza in the world! It's true that it is small, and it is true that the service is not always totally brilliant (busy people, and a strange hierarchy that means only 1 person can take your order or your bill), but those factors are totally outweighed by how delicious the pizzas are. They are fabulous. It is the best pizza I've eaten in the world (and I've lived in America and Europe), no exaggeration. I love it.

A. S.

The room itself is very uninspiring, which often can be a good sign for Italian restaraunts, but this place just turned out to be a bit of a tourist trap. The service was slow, not particularly nice and not attentive at all. The food was ok, but nothing more than that. The pizza was bland, starters were average. The crab pasta was quite good, but it better be for £20! For £110 for two including a bottle of wine, I really would expect more than this. Unfortunately will not be back.

A. M.

Excellent pizza (hard to better in London). It's a shame the acoustic is so bright and the tables so close. It obviously doesn't always suit the staff, as the service here varies hugely from utterly charming to downright rude. Ignore that and just eat the pizza and you'll love it.

C. B.

We all loved the restaurant on a recent visit. The atmosphere is great, the decor is warm and inviting and the staff looked after us all very well. The pizzas were definitely the tastiest we have come across!

D. J.

Wonderful pizza, although no smaller ones for children. But they do have boxes to take it home. Rest of the food was great too. And very good value given where it is. The only negative it's the service which I would put down as mixed; good from some waiters, insistent from the rest

G. A. P.

Six stars! Fabulous staff, service and food! Our favourite Italian local. Best last pre lockdown dinner choice. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you in December.

S. D.

One of the best Pizza's I've ever had: Thin and crispy, lots of tomato sauce and a good amount of toppings (parma ham & rocket in my case). I also liked the atmosphere, the fact that it was not too loud and nice decor. It took a bit to get the bill in the end though.

S. B. T.

Pizza and pastas were delicious. Panna cotta was superb, especially the tartness of the raspberry sauce combined with the creaminess of it. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Though, the tiramisu could have had stronger coffee flavour. Also, the cuttlefish starter was a little salty, but tasty sauce.

M. M.

I had an awesome pizza here. The staff was very professional and attentive, and even though we came in late and when they were about to close, they still took our order. Even though the decor isn't much, the food is really good. Would definitely go there for an Italian lunch.

C. E.

I love the Lobster homemade tomato pasta sauce just like mama makes it! delicious! The service is usually good for a light Sunday Lunch.

C. M.

Excellent Sardinian food - among the best malloreddus I have had in London. Very convenient location, 2 blocks from Victoria Station. We found it very busy and noisy when we have been there, and the service was perhaps slightly grumpy and slow, but overall we were very satisfied.

A.

Nice atmosphere. Dimly lit and sophisticated. Interior is very classy and the staff delivers top-notch service. Highly recommended for first dates if you can afford it

S. D.

Unfortunately, I’d miscounted and booked for nine, and it wasn’t easy getting all of us into the narrow space. Sorry to the (slightly grumpy but still charming) manager! Most of the table went for pizza, with one linguine and one tuna. The pizzas, when they came, were enormous…just unfortunate that the kitchen got my friend's pizza wrong and didn’t bring either of us our food until everyone else had been eating for a good ten minutes. My salami and ricotta pizza was nice, if a little heavy on the tomato sauce. Portions are huge, all ingredients taste very fresh and it wasn’t that pricey for the area – £180 for lunch for 11 of us. Just a shame a few slip-ups (and a broken till) didn’t make it a four star experience…

J. W.

Delicious food that tastes like it comes from another planet, that good it feels. I’ve been here a couple of times and I can state that this Italian restaurant has no compare. Staff is attentive, authentic food for a reasonable price. Already recommended it to friends.

K. M.

I love this place. Perfectly crispy pizzas and exquisite pasta but do not attempt to try both in the same meal. Highlights include both the crab and sea urchin pastas. Those who aren't regulars might be put off by the noisy atmosphere and the service which you think might have passed you by, but go with an open mind.

R. F.

Good pizza although I wouldnt go out of my way to dine there. Feels a bit strange to be asked every time if you have a reservation when the athmospheren is so informal. Good for a weekday lunch if you are not in a hurry.

Z. J.

Best pizza in the world. The vegetarian pizza with aubergines and or zucchini is my favorite!

C. H.

The sausage pasta was fine, but this place is best known for its pizza. The anchovy and caper pizza is a bit over-salty and over-cheesed, but the dough is nice and chewy, and the pizza was huge. Service was a bit slow and grumpy!

E. T.

I absolutely like the dishes and service, fantastic area very close to where I live. The cashiers are always welcoming. Would recommend to others.

H. S.

Authentic Sardinian restaurant with tasty food. Spaghetti alla Bottarga is very tasty, as well as the pizza / pasta with crab meat.

C. S.

I had the pizza al funghi here and it was delicious and well sized. I wasn't very impressed by the decor and the chairs were rather uncomfortable but the staff was very attentive and professional. Would come back for their food.

k.

Great pizza! Even our 4 years old Fella eat it half of it, well almost, as it is really big one! Nice, friendly staff.

A. G.

Very popular pizzeria on Elizabeth Street. Pizza's cost about £9-12. Good quality, freindly. Popular with children and adults alike.

D. B.

Come on, Zagat, seriously? 24 for this place? This is an absolutely average eatery, serving acceptable pizzas and reasonable pasta dishes: absolutely nothing to write home about. The main courses are tasty without ever being exceptional. The pizzas can only be considered "the best in London" by someone who has never been to Portobello, Princi, Rossopomodoro, Madeinitaly, Franco Manca, Santorè, Pappagone, Donna Margherita and a handful of others. No table linens, paper napkins, average wines on the list, and prices that can only be justified given some of the absolutely outrageous alternatives in the embassy neighborhood around. Add to that the frequently slow service (I've been there a few times for lunch and nothing could explain the times we had to wait in a few occasions) and this completes the picture. 52£ for one starter, one pizza, one pasta dish, water and coffee. It's a 19, 20 max.

D. C.

You need to book if you want a table. The pizzas were big and very good, the mushrooms were very tasty! We took a pannacota for dessert, which was also delicious.

P. A.

Consistently good authentic quality food delicious and lovely Front of house team

G. C.

Great food and very friendly staff! Both the pizzas and pasta dishes are really good!

S. S.

Egregious pizza with great ingredients from Sardinia. Nice wines and awesome digestifs. A bit small, it's worth booking. Check the other Olivo restaurants too.

M. M.

Amazing restaurant for trying genuine Sardinian food. Everything is freshly made, seasonal ingredients, the place is spotless and the staff has always been welcoming.

L. C.

Great pizza - we always go for dinner when having drinks at the pub opposite

S. E.

Top quality, the price is balanced to this. Great service and atmosphere. A lot of choise and if you come from Sardegna don't skip this place.

a. m.

Good pizza. Sardinian, so you can be adventurous and try sea urchin etc if tempted. Mostly a cheap and cheerful pizza place

(Translated) I was curious about this karasumi pasta and went there. Even in Tokyo, this amount of karasumi pasta is hard to come by. (Maybe Japan is more expensive.) I was very impressed. Carpaccio was confused with fish, but beef carpaccio was also cold and delicious. The staff's suggestions for white wine were also very good and it was a very good shop. (Original) こちらのカラスミパスタが気になって行ってみました。東京でもこの量のカラスミパスタはなかなか頂けません。（ひょっとしたら日本の方が高いかもしれません。）とても感動しました。カルパッチョも魚と迷いましたが、牛肉のカルパッチョも冷たくて美味しかったです。スタッフさんの白ワインの提案もとても良く非常にいいお店でした。
