Service/hospitality: ☆☆☆ The waiters were very friendly. However, I rated it 3 stars because we waited for a very long time before we were entertained and were given a table. Not to mention that we have also waited for a long time before food was served. Highly recommend to reserve a table in advance. Food: depends on what you order. The seafood spaghetti was a disappointment but the carbonara was great. The seafood platter was also quite good. I would highly recommend their garlic bread as a starter as well. Environment: ☆☆☆☆ great interior design with mirrors that create illusionary large space. But it is too crowded and a little small in considering the amount of occupants.

Probably one of the best Italian restaurants in London. Food is great, love their pizzas, staff is friendly (although sometimes very busy) and prices are not bad. Great when not too busy.

We ate here on a Sunday at 3pm having tried unsuccessfully on Friday and Saturday evenings .. moral of that story - booking essential! There is no parking so best be on foot, as we were. My first problem was settling on something to eat .. there was so much choice!!! And when the food arrived we all generally managed to not quite lick our plates clean 😅 The atmosphere is friendly and the staff great - very professional in that they will pick up on their clients' needs and be as involved in banter or leave you in peace as you require. Basically, if you want Italian food in a clean and relaxed yet genteel environment, then come here!

Decent prices compared to the quality of food that is served. We enjoyed diner at this restaurant, the pasta was quite basic but very tasty. Quite some variety of wine to choose from, so everyone can have a delicious wine based on preference. We waited quite a bit till the food arrived, but it did not really have any impact on how much we enjoyed our time here.

Perfect place to experience home style Italian dishes. The ambience is quite good. The menu has a wide range of vegetarian and non vegetarian options of pizza, pasta, lassgna, salads. The desserts menu is also widespread. Lovely restaurant near London Paddington with Italian vibe. 👍

This is a great place for Italian food. The food is cooked very well. There is good variety of options in the menu. The staff are very friendly. The manager Giuseppe is your go to person for anything you need and he is very friendly. He will even find you a nice table on the outdoor terrace if you ask nicely. Personally loved the vegetable lasagne. Also the desserts are very good too. All round, a great restaurant to dine out.

Good quality Italian food, but the service made this place memorably outstanding. Ivan was the most wonderful server — friendly and nice, explaining the variety of dishes, helping us make the best choices, showing us how to make some of the dishes better with the toppings, and even chatting with us about where to go in Italy. Lamb chops and veal were super tender. Chicken piccata was perfectly breaded. The lemon dessert was probably my favorite but though — and I’m not usually a huge dessert person. I would come back just for that.

What a gem ! Definitely the best italian restaurant we ever visit and one of the best in London generally. Really busy and lively restaurant with a great atmosphere 👌 We were looking for a nice restaurant to have a dinner nearby our hotel. There was a small queue and eye catching atmosphere when we were passing and it was the best decision we done. The food was nicely fresh and tastefully prepared, very good choice of pizzas, pastas, meat of all the kinds and a delicious desert menu. Highly recommended the fresh tomato soup, bruschetta tradizionale and spaghetti frutti di mare. 🤌 Very friendly and kind staff. Amazing service done for us by the handsome and very professional gentleman named Abdul makes our experience even more unforgettable. We were lucky to sit in his section every evening. He was really friendly, helpful, and gave us many advices for a London as well he has done an outstanding service for us. 👏 We can't forget to mention also the friendly and great Mr. Giuseppe which was doing always his best to get a table for us. Even if you walk in without the reservation you are getting the table. Definitely the best Italian restaurant in the heart of Paddington just a few steps from the Paddington station. We are always glad to come back and enjoy that amazing atmosphere, service and the food in our every London visit. Bravo, great job 👏🤌👌

Hotel staff told us that guests found it delicious and so off we went. Clearly v good within the 3 block radius as it was packed to the rafters on a Monday evening! A good mix of regular locals which added to its popularity. Service was brisk and prompt, servers all friendly despite the pace. We ended up going back twice for dinner! The food: Starter - Baked mushrooms+ anchovies. Delish, should have ordered bread to mop up the salty goodness! Minestrone - ordered on 2nd night as it was rainy and nice to have soup. Light, delicious with that homemade Nonna taste. LOVED IT. Some might find it bland but you can always add salt. Pasta - Vongole, Prosciutto el Funghi and Bolognese. Huge servings all delicious! 2nd night had only 1 pasta as it was enough for both of us. Brava, brava, brava! Dessert - Apple pie. I couldn't resist and omg, this was 10x better than Harrods! Huge chunks of apple, and yummy pie crust. Came w vanilla ice cream and lashings of chocolate which it didn't need. Love this place...give it a go!

A traditional restaurant with great taste and flavour to their dishes. We had lasagna, calarami, linguine with clams and cod fish. All of them are great, especially the linguine with claims which sticks to its roots! Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone happens to be in the Paddington neighbourhood!

Edit: the second time visiting the food was just as amazing and the staff were much more hospitable and welcoming! Must have caught them on a busy day the first time. 5 stars now! Really tasty Italian dishes. We did have to wait half an hour to be seen, but the food came out relatively quickly after that. Pizza and gnocchi were very nice and tiramisu was nice and light. Would rate 5 stars if only rating food!

Very busy but the service was really amazing. Would book before coming here as the times I've been here have always had a wait. The food is authentic and really tasty - including the desserts. The owner is lovely and makes himself known adding to the nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend trying this restaurant if you're ever nearby. Thanks for having us!

Very good food and well served! Great choice for pasta. Waiters are super attentive. I just didn't like the wine very much, I didn't think it was of great quality

Great staff, everyone was very nice and friendly, they worked hard in tough conditions. Got our table fast, the food was delicious, great wine 🍷 service. My husband and I would definitely go back. Thank you for the great experience!

Great Italian experience in the city. There was a line out the door but we had been lucky to make a reservation ahead of time. They serve bread, antipasta, soup, salads, pasta dishes, veal, chicken and more. The mozzarella salad and antipasta were fantastic. The prosciutto fettuccine with mushrooms was good but not great. It lacked a little bit of sauce. Wine selection was good as well. Overall great experience and would go back!

Absolutely amazing food and service. My friend and I came in without reservation for a late lunch, and had a fantastic meal & time. Our waiter was very friendly and took great care of us. The seafood was fresh and delicious, and the pasta portion was massive. The bruschetta that my friend and I split in 2 was definitely the best I’ve had in London, likely due to the high-quality ingredients. The prices are reasonable too! I will be coming back here.

Best pizza in all of London! We were brought to the place quickly and in a friendly manner, the drinks came within a few minutes. The starters were more than fresh and would also be served quickly. The pizzas were more than delicious and well topped, the base was thin and crispy. The staff were friendly and fun. We would love to come back and really recommend it to anyone who wants a very good Italian pizza!

Italian food made with love and care. Staff are friendly, polite, always checking if everything is OK. Restaurant was very busy, lots of people in and out after their meal. The restaurant uses fish cutlery for fish, most of the places I go do not use any more. Fish was delicious (sole) Chicken with spinach and ricotta was also very good. Limoncello at the end of our meal. Excellent.

A restaurant established in 1957. We were expecting better. Good not authentic pizza. The food is not Halal so we got the fish pizza. Good size for £13. Rather have pizza hut. Service took forever even though it was poor ordered. Just a big standard place not worth eating. B average garlic bread like your get from Lidl. Can't get over the 40min wait for a pizza when it was not busy at 4.20pm.

Good and tasty food. Sufficient quantity and best taste. Recommended for authentic Italian. Also, the staff werebvery courteous and friendly and having a smile on face to serve customers. Been there on a busy Monday evening.

A great find a few minutes' walk away from Lancaster Gate / Hyde Park, this Italian restaurant boasts great food, a nice and cosy atmosphere, and friendly service. We enjoyed some great pasta and delicious deserts at very fair prices, especially when considering the location.
