   Fantastic Italian eatery with a brilliant menu and exceptional service. The entire place has a bit of a buzz about it and every dish I had was delicious. My only complaint would be the wine list - lots of nice wines available by the glass / carafe / bottle but no particularly "affordable" options which made the entire meal a bit more expensive than than I would have liked. Well worth a visit.

   The food is inexplicably sublime. The service is very good. We went for Dinner on a Thursday at 6pm, and it was loud in the Main Dining area. Also, the Main Dining area is pretty small. If/when we go again, I think we'll go for Counter Dining, as you'll get to see the Chef creating the masterpieces.

   We love this place but hadn't been for a while. Glad to see the standards are as high as ever. Great service, lovely space to relax and eat, and a fine wine list. But the big draw is the menu - all those regional Italian specialties. The suckling pig is unbeatable but all the dishes we chose were fantastic (Pappardelle with venison ragú, Wild boar sausage and Tropea onion, Roast suckling pig in white wine and bay, Pumpkin & amaretti cappellacci with butter & sage, and Taleggio & radicchio lasagne).

   This restaurant has been on my list for ages and I’m glad I finally came here! Service is so friendly and they make you feel very welcome. Every dish we ordered was beautifully served and tasted amazing! They even gave me a little birthday card and ice cream because it was my birthday! Love an Italian restaurant but this place is extra special! Will definitely be returning.

   Arguably the best pasta in London. Being a pasta fanatic, I’m surprised every time I come here to try something new. The service is top notch and prices are moderate for London standards. You definitely get great value for money. Highly recommend.

   I've been coming here for years. Glad to see that the food is as good today as when I first ate here. Service is friendly and quick. You can have larger or smaller portions for almost anything on the menu. The gelato from across the street is delicious.

   The dishes we ordered were generally really good, and our waiter were attentive and welcoming. But sitting at the bar seatings, the male bartender’s method of opening a wine bottle is just laughable. He opened every bottle without cutting the foil first, letting the wine pour over the foil that could possibly change the taste of the bottle. Another issue is that the prosciutto cutter is placed directly above a bloody bin. The prosciutto is cut and handled by bare not-washed hands, no food safety guidelines are followed.

   Wouldn’t want to bestow this monstrosity to anyone really. It was as disappointing as it was disgusting. Look, I was ever gonna write a review if the food was either otherworldly or if it was horrendous. I’m afraid it is the latter. Food: Awful food, I’m afraid. The calamari, prawn and courgette were terrible. The calamari and prawn are surely store bought stuff, not fresh. Tasted average at best. Then the baked potato? I could make it myself at home and I wouldn’t burn it… also there was no seasoning on either of the dishes. The cuttlefish with peas and mint. The cuttlefish wasn’t fresh again… and it was over cooked. There was no elasticity in the cuttlefish, a sign that it was overcooked. For the pasta, it was a marked improvement. The scorpion fish pasta was actually quite nice. Good flavour. The only bone I would pick is I think the pasta might be a touch too thick but I don’t think that’s a major issue. The ricotta tortellini was okay, a little blend but all in all, not too bad. The Bolognese with squid… I am not a fan. I was hesitant to order it in the first place as I felt it was a bit weird to mix squid with bolognese sauce. I’d love to try the steak but the only availability was a 800 gram cut which was too much just for the two of us. I wanted to try more dishes. So we went for the bolognese. It doesn’t taste bad… just doesn’t feel it was the perfect match with squid. Service: okay that was the highlight. The waitress who served us was friendly. I cannot fault them - even after I complained about the food. It was really commendable.

   One of the best Italian restaurant in London so far. We did celebrate a hen party last Sunday at Bocca di Lupo. The ambiance was welcoming, the staff attentive and well trained and the food was so so good. Like a proper Italian restaurant! Thanks to Giovanni, he made all the experience even better!
