R. w.

We arrived a couple today at the Italian restaurant, it is located in a nice hideaway near Selfridge in London, a cute Italian restaurant with a great atmosphere, I ordered a pizza with pepperoni and mozzarella, and my partner ordered ravioli with cheese and basil, the pizza was excellent, the pepperoni was a little less spicy and unrelated To the peppery taste known to all, the dough of the pizza was baked almost perfectly, the sauce of the pizza a little less delicious but the cheese was excellent, the ravioli was perfect, the only thing we did not like was successful, at no point in each serving, none of the waiters had a smile Guests were 3 waiters and all with a sour face, the meal cost along with a drink £ 41.24 Reasonable price for the food, just a pity they did not smile it would give a better feeling, it is recommended to come to the place warmly ...

My wife and I had dinner here on Saturday night. Sat inside. Service and food were both excellent. VERY impressed by the friendliness and competence of the staff. Special thanks to Birol…. This is not a fake review - check my other reviews…

Lovely little Italian restaurant just outside st Christopher's place. Service was spot on, starters were large and delicious, very reasonable. Mains were also delicious and a good size and also reasonably price. Drinks are where they sting you in my eyes. Would Defo go back as the service and food was great. Just a heads up service charge is included in the bill.

Excellent Italian trattoria restaurant just off Oxford St located near Selfridges. Good menu choices,quality food and for London West End very srnsibly priced. Good staff made for an enjoyable meal after London shopping. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A. W.

Great service from friendly staff. We loved the food here - my kids gave the calzones five stars.

N. H.

Excellent food overall. The portions were very good value as well. Would return.

Fabulous service by Najim. Cozy warm and perfect veal! To top it off a complimentary frozen limoncello! Excellent I will be back.

E. S.

E. b.

Very good service and the food was amazing!! It was 3 of us and we all had different pasta and we all loved it. Good portions. Busy terrace but lovely

S. M.

High quality food and great location! A bit hurried by the owner but it didn’t affect our time there 👌

My friend and I came here overwhelmingly underdressed to dine at any restaurant after a photo shoot but were given a table inside without hesitation as all the outdoor tables were taken (for good reason). We were looking for Italian and I’m so glad we happened upon this place. My pizza margherita was exactly was I was looking for. Quality ingredients, simplistic but cooked perfectly. I thought I was back in Italy. The manager/owner..,? I’m going to butcher the name but I think it was ‘Brol’?? He was awesome. I had a fantastic white wine he suggested. The prices were fair, not inflated London prices(albeit being in a fantastic location) so price point was spot on. At one point after dinner I was telling my friend I could go for an amaretto and she had never heard of that liquor. Needless to say, our conversation was overheard and we had received amaretto shots on the house. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic and decently priced Italian meal with service that exceeds expectations. I’ll be returning soon with my husband.

Delightful, welcoming and authentic Italian restaurant. Delicious food and excellent service. Staff couldn't do enough to ensure our experience was enjoyable. Thank you!

M. G.

Delicious mushroom risotto 👍🏻

A. G.

k. a.

Absolutely love this restaurant, food and wine is fantastic. Staff are very attentive and friendly too. 👍🏻

F. K.

The service was great, we loved our ravioli dish and the restaurant has fantastic ambiance.

V. G.

Lovely food, outdoor space spoiled a bit by people smoking, would be better if smoking banned. Great portion size and delicious tiramisu, do not miss!

A. A.

The pizza was nice but the pasta wasn't good! Too much garlic in the sauce and the pasta was not al dente.

R. R.

We went here for dinner after a day out In London. The food was excellent. The service was very friendly and they took good care of us. The desert was very good in fact amazing. It made for a perfect end to an excellent day. Not many friendly places like this left. Family feel and food not corporate microwave.

R. N.

The pasta was delicious and very creamy with a generous amount of Parmesan on top of it. Yum! One the server who was Turkish was so nice and ended up giving us an amazing experience of the Italian cuisine! Great food and company. Well done!

雷.

the staff here is freindly and the food is quite delicious

G. P.

Nice little Italian restaurant just off of the main road. The food and the service were good. As we were there early evening on a week day it was very quiet so can't really tell how popular it gets during the busier times.

R. I.

2nd time here, food lovely on both visits, best cappuccino I've had in London so far. Only problem I got are the small toilets 😃

M. I.

Delicious food very good service 👍

M. L.

A hidden gem! Better than the chains of Italian food around there, both our pastas were very true to the original recipe. The service was quick on a busy afternoon.

A. K.

Great food. Amazing tiramisu!

J. J.

Great food, good value and quick service. Highly recommended!

L. J.

If you want to feel welcome and at home is the place that you must visit! Very friendly stuff, good wine, good food and really nice ambiance!

F. C.

This restaurant needs a little refurb as is quite dated. As per food, although our pasta was nice and tasty, I would object on how small the Calzone was and so overpriced, you had the choice to add ingredients at extra cost but never excepting to pay 18 pounds for it! I asked explanation to the duty manager but he wasn't very co-operative with answering. Central London prices yes but over pricing food, no!

G. G. M.

11/10 - amazing, freshly prepared food and every dish tastes like your mama prepared it! Prices are reasonable, service is great and I love coming back here and to bring my friends or family:)

T. B.

Had a really good pizza. Friendly staff with good customer service. Very limited menu and like many UK Italian restaurants they serve pasta as a main course? No veal on the menu either.

S. E.

Average food that’s edible rather than enjoyable. Service is fine and friendly.

D. R.

lovely food and very friendly and helpful staff. great ambiance

C. Z.

Sea bass amazing, garlic focaccia amazing, lasagna even more amazing! Excellent atmosphere would not hesitate to go again!

N. B.

Great food and service reasonably priced for a West end restaurant, but the whole place (including the toilets) definitely in need or refurbishment and modernising. Would not stop me going back though 👍

C. B.

Exquisite spinach salad - balanced with avocado, mozzarella and artichoke. Delicious and beautiful to look at. My friends all enjoyed their food. Looking forward to coming back.

L. C.

My husband and I had a cozy, romantic dinner here last night. We had awesome service, excellent food and a lovely atmosphere. The bruschetta was tasty and generous. The tortelloni in pink sauce was delicious. Have the tiramisu with amaretto! Big kudos from Boise, Idaho, USA!

D.

Very friendly service. Good value for money and better than any chain ! Pizza's were fresh and pasta amazing!

H.

Not bad Italian pizza

W. B.

Good italian restaurant. Seafood pasta is recommended. I saw good pictures on google before dropping by. But my plate did not have as variety of seafood as others have posted. Maybe some seafoods are seasonal.

Ammazing food the best tomato and basil salad ever, especially on a hot 22 degrees day. Great service

g. b.

Food is quality top & good, reasonably expensive, staff were pleasant, atmosphere & furnishing were lovely, short wait, generally a good experience

R. B.

Personnel is very nice but the food is ordinary and not cheap; but well, it is very touristy so real estate does impact prices

K. C.

A great place to stop for lunch and have a break from Oxford St. Apart from good food, I suggest a couple of Aperol spritz. They will really set you up for round two.

M. S.

the place seems nice, but I've tried only the cappuccino.. it was so expensive (3.85£ drinked in) and it wasn't a good one, I'm sorry

M. G.

Nice, quiet, warm place.

(Translated) Small Italian restaurant with various menu. You have options of indoor or outdoor tables. We went for fried chicken scalp with spaghetti 🍝 it was delicious and brochette. I would come again to try other menu items. He gets drunk at 10 at night. Many people fly in after ten and do not enter the restaurant. (Original) Small Italian restaurant with diverse menu.

(Translated) delicious! I stopped by without checking it, but the pasta is delicious and I go there many times. My personal recommendation is Arrabiata or Amatriciana. The entrance to the store is a little narrow, so it's a little difficult to enter with a buggy, but the staff are all kind and supportive. (Original) 美味しい！ 特に調べず、ふらっと立ち寄ったお店ですが、パスタが美味しくて何度も通っています。個人的なオススメはアラビアータかアマトリチャーナです。 店の入り口が若干狭いので、バギーだとちょっと入りづらいですが、スタッフは皆んな優しく、サポートしてくれます。

(Translated) Good Italian food in London Nice place, good food at fair price. Homemade lemonade however is not made on the spot which leaves its flavor a bit altered. Portion well served. Entrance eggplant but it looks like a main course, even though we ordered one for two people because the main course is well served. Noodles with very tasty sauce and seafood risotto with a single defect, absence of own cutlery for crayfish. (Original) Boa comida italiana em Londres Local agradável, boa comida a preço justo. Limonada caseira contudo não é feita na hora o que deixa seu sabor um pouco alterado. Porção bem servida. Berinjela de entrada mas parece um prato principal, ainda bem que pedimos uma para dus pessoas pois o prato principal é bem servido. Macarrão com molho bem saboroso e risoto de frutos do mar com um único defeito, ausência de talher próprio para o lagostim.
