   So me and my colleagues discovered this hidden gem a good few months ago and can without a doubt tell you that we are obsessed! Not only is the food always delicious, they now serve HALAL chicken and bolognese!! There are a good selection of Pasta’s to choice from, you can even choose small, regular or large size meal. If you like a little spice, ask for chilli oil. Make sure to include the garlic bread! And if you haven’t tried their brownie, you are missing out! There are few tables if you wish to enjoy your food there or simply do a takeaway! Service is pretty fast but trust me, have a little patience because the fresh food is worth the wait! Sylvia and Cristiano are the kindest people! Beautiful place ran by beautiful people. For all those who love good hearty food, you need to visit!!

   This place is a true hidden gem. Located downstairs in a small business complex, with the option to take away or there's several tables in this cozy and quiet eatery. Beautifully cooked pasta, rich flavours and decent portion sizes. The meat is also Halal. We ordered chicken pesto, creamy mushroom and Bolognese and they were all top tier. However, for myself personally, the pesto chicken was the star of the show. Perfectly creamy, nutty and herby; lovely thick consistency with every piece of pasta and chicken evenly coated. I could eat it every day. They also make a delicious chilli oil, which compliments the food so well and a fluffy garlic bread. The only suggestion I would make is to have a dairy free option (i.e. dairy free cream/cheese in the sauces or to garnish). The staff there, one lady and one man, were gems. Super friendly and welcoming, very accommodating and honestly great at what they do. I can't wait to come back again!!

   Collected a too good to go from here and it was absolutely stunning, the pictures say it all. Pasta was so rich with flavours of tomato garlic and a hint of spice. Came with some freshly made dough balls which were the perfect finishing touch. I would 100% pay full price, and will be coming back! Just a little trickier to find…

   The food here is so delicious, made fresh and the portions are decent too (a regular pasta is all I need). I'll always grab a box to takeaway but there is the option to eat in if you like. Sylvia (owner) is such a lovely lady, super friendly and she makes good recommendations depending on what you like. This place deserves more customers.

   Amazing little hidden place. The food was just really good. Simple pasta, very reasonable prices, and great portions! Nothing more I could ask for in the heart of Old Street. I had the medium creamy mushroom pasta for £6.20 and it was delicious! Will definitely be going back =)

   Silvia and her team create a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere and some of the best pasta I've ever eaten!! Full of flavour, perfectly al dente and incredibly generous portions. They also cater for events externally and you won't be disappointed with the food. Always super fresh, made with love and there's TONS of it! Go immediately if you love your tummy

   One of the best pasta I ever had in London. People here are so lovely and kind and I think this hidden place is so cozy that everyone should stop by.

   Hidden London at its best: wonderful homecooked inexpensive pasta (fiorentina and carbonara since you ask) in a quiet and atmospheric spot, cooked by an inspirational lady.

   A very well hidden gem! This is the best pasta I've had in London and is always a lunchtime treat. I told all my colleagues at work about this place and they thanked me for sharing this with them. The pasta is absolutely divine, full of flavour and the portions are hard to finish in one sitting!
