About Trattoria Verdi 🇮🇹
On Southampton Row in London, Trattoria Verdi serves pizza and pasta alongside dishes from across Italy in a long-standing dining room. A pianist plays live during dinner and takes requests from the tables. Fettuccine al salmone appears repeatedly on orders, and crème caramel rounds out the dessert list. The restaurant takes walk-ins rather than reservations, so diners arrive and are seated without booking ahead. Between the food and the piano accompaniment, the room settles into a routine that has held over its long run on Southampton Row.

Customer Review Summary
Live piano running through nearly every visit sets the tone here, with diners repeatedly pairing it to the fettuccine al salmone, singled out twice as a standout, alongside pasta, pizza with pepperoni and fresh basil, and desserts like tiramisu and crème caramel. Several reviewers name servers directly for warm, attentive service and good recommendations, and a few mention the lasagna and sirloin steak with peppercorn sauce as favorites. Bruschetta and half mussels also get called out as reliable starters. Diners describe the atmosphere as warm and rustic, with red candles and rotating dessert displays adding to it, and one review notes dogs are welcome inside. No recurring complaints surface across the set. Multiple reviewers say they would return, and one calls it their mandatory stop on every London visit.

“We had a fantastic time dining here on Southampton Row. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, made even better by the soft glow of the red candles on the tables. Everything we ordered was prepared perfectly. The pasta dishes were fresh and the pizza had such a great crust, topped with generous slices of pepperoni and fresh basil. It is rare to find a spot that hits the mark on both quality and presentation so consistently. We will definitely be back soon.”

“A lovely Italian Soho eatery with plenty of atmosphere. The place seems to be family run and offers nice Pizze and Pasta dishes. We also enjoyed a very nice dessert being tempted by the rotating display. Best of all the place is open until late and allows doggos inside. 🍕🍝🐕”
