  “Ok so we found this place by accident. We went to see Portobello road market and we were kind of glummy bc it was a bust. Only 4 vendors. Booo… Well we were walking up the sidewalk and seen this darling eatery set back and it looked like something from a hallmark movie. Like the perfect proposal spot or movie scene for it. We stopped for lunch, ordered 2 mocktails and food. That food was huge!!! We had to take it to go and it was finished for dinner. We both agreed this was AUTHENTIC Italian ! The atmosphere, the lady of the house, everything. By far it has been our highlight of the trip. I’d tell everyone and anyone to visit. (Cost for 2 drinks, water and 2 dishes, £77) 10 out 10!!!”

  “At the end of a busy hot day visiting London we chanced on this almost grotto like gem. Superb service, fresh delicious food. We both ordered the fresh mussel 'soup' The anticipation was palpable as I hoped it was more mussel and less soup and how they delivered. Really flavoursome mussels by the bucket load. Then only I had room for more food so I ordered gnocchi, mozzarella and home made pesto. Again absolutely delicious. Would definitely eat again. All the chef's and most of the staff were Italian and their pride in their delicious food was apparent. Lovely place to eat and recuperate.”

  “Some of the best pasta I’ve had! Very cold beer and garlic bread topped it off perfectly. If you’ve just done a morning strolling through Portobello Market, then this is a total gem of a restaurant for a great lunch. The vibe is also first class…I felt like I was in Italy for an hour 😍”

  “Honestly this was the highlight meal of our time here. The atmosphere is charming and the food was so good. The darling bread with burrata and tomatoes was incredible! Do not skip the cookie dough dessert in the end. We will be back!!”

  “We went here based off of reviews but we weren’t very impressed. The pasta was extremely average, the carbonara had a lot extra liquid and wasn’t authentic tasting. Painful for £20. Good burrata and bread selection. For Italian food in London, I would choose somewhere else.”

  “Visited here with my partner on a recent trip to London based on the excellent reviews. Unfortunately I was not so impressed. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very quaint and gives the vibe of a classic Italian trattoria, unfortunately the service and welcome of the service staff was quite cold and standoffish. I had the carbonara and was offered the pasta well-cooked or al dente, I opted for al dente. It was a traditional Roman carbonara according to the menu. I found it to have a strange taste though, can't put my finger on what that taste was but it was off-putting. Similarly the porn star martini had an odd taste too. My partner had the chicken parmigiana which he enjoyed. Overall I wouldn't say this was a bad restaurant but I wouldn't recommend it to family and friends and I wouldn't return personally.”
