  “Needed somewhere to go for a date and decided to pick here for the nicest of italian cuisines! the food was of a good standard and the prices were remarkable! however i do believe the portion size was a little bit scarce but im a greedy big boy so thats probably more of a personal thing. I'll deffo be coming back to try more of the menu as i said the prices were really good (especially in this economy)”

  “Absolutely stunning food. Booked on a whim, as staying in the area. Unassuming frontage, friendly, but not the best service, but the food i next level. I enjoy private Italian restaurants, but this tasted like you where being in someone's home. All the pasta is fresh and the sauces are amazing. Can particularly recommend the pea pasta. Like tortellini stuffed with a pea and creme fraiche mouse, served with a burnt butter sauce. Truly the best pasta dish I have tasted in the UK. Tiramisu is not too shabby as well. Looking forward to our next meal. If you are near Brixton, book and enjoy.”

  “Fantastic and cannot wait to return! The food is *chefs kiss*, after a few drinks, a delicious bowl of pasta? What more could you want. Nice relaxed atmosphere, music good but not too loud, easy to get a table. And the new hire, gentleman from Leeds (?) is great, very personable, attentive and funny but will also leave you to it. Thanks guys!”

  “A delicious meal every time we visit! Their Carbonara is to die for (authentic and so tasty every time). The service is also really good and the staff are always friendly and efficient. Do recommend if you fancy a nice bit of pasta! Be warned the restaurant is small so would reccommend booking before coming as it's popular!”

  “Came with a friend and her little one without a reservation and were quickly and kindly accommodated. Both our pasta dishes were spectacular (best vongole I’ve ever had) and for the price the quality was great. We never felt rushed, which in a small restaurant can sometimes occur but it was just all in all a lovely experience. Thank you for your hospitality!”

  “We popped by for lunch and had a wonderful experience here! The Spaghetti alla Vongole as well as the tiramisu were the highlights!”

  “We visited La Nonna in search of an Italian restaurant in Brixton that offers a pasta selection and found a lovely restaurant with exceptionally fast service and high quality pasta, we ordered the arrabbiata and the carbonara and they were both lovely with perfect portion sizes and weren’t too expensive. We also heard that the tiramisu was to die for and we 100% agree. We had an amazing experience and will definitely come back in the future if we’re ever back in Brixton. I definitely recommend this restaurant.”

  “Had such a lovely dinner at La Nonna Pasta Fresca. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, and you can tell they take their pasta seriously. We started with the arancini, which were perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy inside. The sauces alongside were great for dipping and added a nice flavour contrast. For the main, I had the pappardelle with slow-cooked ragu, which was absolutely delicious. The pasta tasted freshly made with the perfect texture, and the ragu was rich, comforting, and full of flavour. For dessert, we shared the pistachio cake with pistachio ice cream, which was the perfect way to finish the meal, beautifully balanced and not overly sweet. A special mention to Melina, our server, who was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Her service really stood out and made us feel well looked after. Would definitely come back again!”

  “I went to have dinner yesterday with some friends and overall the experience was very good. We ordered three starters: eggplant parmigiana, fried pasta, and burrata with anchovies. The one I enjoyed the most was definitely the eggplant parmigiana — it had an amazing flavor and was absolutely delicious. The burrata was tasty but a bit small, though it might also have been overshadowed by how good the eggplant was. We had a table for six people that we had reserved, and it was perfect. For my main course, I ordered one of the specials of the day: agnolotis with ricotta, truffle, and a sauce made with celery purée. It was excellent — really well prepared and full of flavor. The pasta was perfectly al dente, which I really appreciated, as one thing I can’t stand in some pasta places is when it’s overcooked. For dessert, we ordered tiramisu. It looked great and was fresh and tasty, but I was expecting a bit more intense flavor — either more coffee or a slight touch of liqueur. Still good, just not as strong as I hoped. We also ordered bread, which was excellent. Service was great throughout the meal. Overall, a very good experience!”

  “Went for the bottomless brunch. You get a good choice of pastas and some starters which were great. The Pasta itself was also amazing. They also gave us tiramisu as we were there for an occasion which was a really nice touch at the end. It did take a while for them to come serve us but they extended our bottomless brunch time to make up for it which was nice. I also don’t know if it’s the time we went but it was pretty quiet”
