This restaurant is fabulous. The food, service and wine were superb. We didn’t book, so our only option was to sit outside, even though it was February, the patio heaters kept us toasty. The highlight of our weekend in London ❤️

Had a delicious meal with my husband and my daughter celebrating her birthday. We chose seafood pasta options, which were all outstanding. My lobster ravioli in a bisque sauce was exquisite. The pistachio tiramisu was nutty, light sponge with a homemade touch. Thanks for making Ife's birthday a special treat. She loves Italian food and you didn't disappoint us! We will be back soon!

Delicious food and wine, we felt a little rushed by the server and admittedly we were a large loud group so possibly due to the small restaurant the sound can travel and otherwise was a lot of small tables close together but overall we really enjoyed ourselves and loved the decor and vibe

Dora was extremely good, we were impressed with the service and the food was excellent. She even told us about a sister restaurant at 64 which we will try .

I visited this place twice during my stay in London, and the food is so good. For mains, I ordered the ravioli, mashed potatoes, and bruschetta as a starter. Highly recommend this spot. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also very cozy.

Had a fabulous long lunch at this gem of a restaurant yesterday. Service was friendly & efficient and the food could not be faulted - beef carpaccio followed by mushroom risotto & a few too many bottles of rosè! Really sensibly priced - especially considering the location. Would def recommend & we’ll be going back! X

Had an early dinner there by myself before going to The Lyric theatre. Staff were friendly and lovely. Food was delicious. I ate all my favourite things. Sorry I forgot to take photos before I started eating, but hopefully you still get the idea. It was lush! Vegetarian options: I started with olives and a cocktail. Then had the aubergine parmigiana, the penne arrabbiata and a tomato and onions side salad. It was lovely.
