On a trip to London to show the great sites that this city has to offer to a friend over here from the USA for the first time. I took the chance and went to lunch at The Little Italy where a long time ago I had a super Italian lunch. As the tables outside were all occupied I enter the restaurant where another couple of tables had customers and a smiling well groomed young lady showed us to our table with with white table cloth and linen napkins. Always a good sign of a nice restaurant Luigi one of the owners of Little Italy suggested that the Branzino(Sea-Bass)al Cartoccio. It was cooked inside a greaseproof paper with sledges of tomatoes, fennels and seasoned to give it a superb taste. Deli...
The service at this restaurant was not good, especially when the waitress tried to take my drink away before I finished it. When I received the bill, it said I had ordered a cocktail when I had actually ordered a vodka lemonade. When I asked about this, the waitress told me that I should have asked for the regular menu, as that's how they price their cocktails. I refused to pay £11.90 for a vodka and coke and left £25 for my drink and pizza. The waitress insisted I come to the desk for a discount, but I told her she would only be getting £25. As I was leaving, I was stopped by a staff member at the front, to which I responded by saying to call the police. The manager inside then told me I co...
I went to this restaurant for my 20th birthday with 2 friends. The food and drinks were perfect, and the first 2 staff members who greeted and served us were amazing, fast, and very attentive. However, halfway through our meal, there must have been a shift change because 3 other staff members came in and the others left. I was very disappointed with their service. We had empty glasses for about 20-30 minutes and no one offered to refill them from our bottle, so we had to do it ourselves. We had to ask for the bill at least 4 times before actually receiving it. I used to love this place, but considering the service we received, I will not be going back.
Well I'm quite disappointed with this place, the drinks are well overpriced even for Soho, the starters were ok I could not grumble with them, however the mains were awful, we had lasagna and ravioli, well the lasagna I could make better at home, the meat use tasted like a budget version from a supermarket, the ravioli was a little better however the portion was small, there was no meat in the ravioli (maybe I miss read the menu). At the end when you get your bill they add a seating charge of £1.50 Per person, I never seen this and if I had noticed this before I would have avoided this place. Would I go back, only if changes were made.

I had a wonderful evening with friends last night before our theater show. I enjoyed the lively atmosphere of Soho and the charm of Little Italy. The service was great, the atmosphere was lovely, and there were a good variety of drinks to choose from. The portion sizes were good, and the food was flavorful, appetizing, and authentic. Although it's a bit pricey, it is definitely worth it. I will definitely be returning again and highly recommend it.
This is the kind of treasured gem you don’t want to share…. Neil (otherwise Nelly) is the kind of Maitre D you want front of house in any business that deals with people. He has an incredible manner, friendly and knows his business. It really helps that his chef is incredibly talented as the food is superb. We will be back. Thank you for taking care of our table for 12 1 !!
First time frequenting this establishment and have to say I will DEFINITELY be returning Had such an AMAZING time at this restaurant , food and service were 11 out of 10 made by the team on the ground in particular Neil who tended to our every need, developing our choices that were not particularly detailed on the menu made the whole experience unique and unforgettable
AVOID AVOID AVOID. Went here because the music sounded good from the outside on a Friday night. Inside was charged £15 a shot and £16 for a rum and Coke. In hindsight I should have left the drink and refused. I am used to London prices but this is practically criminal, especially for the dive that it is. Do yourself a favour and find literally anywhere else to go.

Been going for over 20 years and always incredible! No where else like it in London. Best atmosphere, food, music and staff x
Not authentic Italian food. We can cook better. Tiramisu is very soft. The pasta served hard not al dente.
