    Wow, went on a Monday and it was busy.....having experienced it I can totally understand why! Fab service - attentive, but not overbearing. Good drinks menu (no cider I don't believe though) amazing food.....so tasty and huge portions! Can't recommend highly enough.

    I decided to take a break for about 7 years from this place due to a very unpleasant group experience at this venue. I gave it another try. Ordered a pasta which was decent and my partners salad was okay too. After halfway eating the food I realised that it was the incorrect one. I guess my expectations were high as I remember the food here used to be very good. Perhaps it’s the service. Atmosphere is nice though and restaurant setting is nice.

    It's kind of a low-effort Italian restaurant. The food was perfectly reasonable, but that's all. The swordfish was nicely cooked, but it came with just potatoes and a bit of slightly withered salad. Far too many options on the menu to choose from - which always makes me think a restaurant doesn't actually specialise in anything. The wine was actually terrible - both myself and a dining partner had different red wines, and we both hated them - they tasted like the cheap wines from Tesco. Place also needs a bit of a refurb - toilet was a bit grim. Also has only 3 stars out of 5 for their food safety certificate.

    Solid spot for casual Italian fare - the spaghetti vongole is delicious and the funghi pizza is decent (skip the tomato and onion salad). Buzzy vibe and well priced.

    this was my first time visiting santore on exmouth market, which i've always been intrigued by! we sat outside on a friday evening in the sun which was glorious. i went for the dutch veal in breadcrumbs which came with spaghetti pasta, two meals in one which was a big win in my eyes - sensational food. my partner went for a prawn pasta dish in a parmesan sauce (not pictured). We then shared a margherita pizza for a second course (ambitious)! will 100% be coming back to try more of the menu

    Managed to squeeze us in on a rammed Friday night. Absolutely superb. Fab Octopus Salad, amazing Woodfired Pizza and Tiramisu to die for. Interesting wines, very reasonably priced.

    Nice Italian restaurant located in central London. I ordered a folded pizza and it was delicious, the portion was so big that I had to take away half of it. The dessert chocolate cake is nice too.

    Good value and big portions but food isnt amazing. This is more of a place for quick work lunches than a special delicious meal. However food still good service great staff always friendly and prices are reasonable. Very big portions if you get the risotto etc!

    I can't recommend this restaurant enough. The menu was diverse, catering to all tastes. The food was cooked to perfection, and the presentation was stunning. The waitstaff were extremely knowledgeable and made great recommendations.

    Food was great! That ear shaped pasta with broccoli was amazing and something I haven't seen before in an Italian. The tiramisu was also very delicious and fresh. Totally recommend to go there with loved ones or with family

    The first time I tried this place was great. I had a gnocchi and I think it was really good. The second time I went for their pizza which seems to be famous. I think it was very average and I’m pretty sure they used canned mushroom! Not expecting it from an authentic place.

    A delicious meal out. We ordered 2 Pizzas and 2 Salads. The food arrived very promptly after placing our order. I had the Vesuvio Pizza which had a light airy crust and was toped with an egg in the centre, which I really enjoyed. For desert we ordered the tiramisu which had great texture with perfectly soaked sponge layers. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience with great service and a delicious selection of food to enjoy.

    We ordered the Buffalo mazzerello and funghi pizza, both vegetation options. Really good. Finished up with some desert and a cappacino!! Reasonable price for really good food!

    Great venue and lovely service. They knew exactly what we were there for without us having to lay it out, a quick snack to keep us going and so came out with a pizza already cut into two and on separate plates. Would visit again, decent value and obviously a great location in general. Beer that we chose was unfortunately only a bottle - unsure if they had anything in draught.

    Lovely pasta and pizza! The aubergine in the oven starter was also delicious. Prices are reasonable and you get exactly what you paid for, no more no less. The biggest downside was the extremely slow service.

  • 5/5 Mark C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great Italian classics at a reasonable price. Size of pizza is both theatrical and delicious.

  • 5/5 Giulia M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great and fast service and authentic Italian food. Been twice and always tried pasta. Cakes are amazing as well.

  • 3/5 Daniela P. 2 years ago on Google
    The pizza is good although the tomato sauce is too much. Pasta is ok, not a lot of flavor. Disappointed about paying 750ml bottle of water 4.20£!!!

  • 4/5 Bianca W. 2 years ago on Google
    Popped in here for an early dinner. Service was friendly. I loved the selection available, but was disappointed with the "garlic pizza bread", I was expecting garlic bread, but it was literally a whole pizza base with a thick tomato and garlic sauce on top! All that was missing was cheese and it would have been an actual pizza! It was way too big to be a starter too, it would be enough for four people to share as a starter. The sausage and broccoli pasta I ordered was absolutely divine though. Delicious and perfectly balanced. Again, a very large portion though. Great price for how fresh and well made the food is, and for the enormous portions of course.

    Lovely Italian restaurant on exmouth market, service was friendly but unfortunately slow despite it being not too busy. Food was good - worth a visit as they have a lovely outdoor area.
