Spaghetti House

Amazing Pastas and Stellar Service Await!

Nestled in a prime spot on Argyll Street, Spaghetti House is a delightful culinary gem that offers an inviting retreat from the hustle of London life. The warm ambiance immediately welcomes diners, setting a comforting tone further enhanced by charming Dean Martin tunes subtly playing in the background. My culinary adventure began with their arancini di riso, where each crispy bite revealed a delectable mix of mozzarella and rich ragu, perfectly complemented by the gentle heat of their arrabbiata sauce. The calamari fritti impressed with its tender center and golden crisp exterior, showcasing the kitchen's expertise in balancing texture and flavor.

For the main course, the linguine gambari asparagus proved to be a standout. The dish elegantly juxtaposed succulent king prawns with fresh asparagus and a hint of chili, delivering a flavor symphony that lingered pleasantly on the palate. The creamy carbonara was also delightful, demonstrating a nuanced balance of simplicity and depth. Throughout our visit, service remained impeccable, with the attentive staff keenly ensuring all our needs were met without being intrusive. Although the pricing aligns with central London standards, the quality of food and experience at Spaghetti House argues in its favor, positioning it as a must-visit for those seeking authentic Italian fare. Despite some reports of inconsistencies you might find in reviews, my visit was nothing short of splendid, making it a quintessential stop for pasta lovers in the heart of the city. — Nigel Gourmet
