What diners say
We visited the restaurant for lunch on Thursday. It is not the first time we have been for lunch here and we have always liked the food. For starters fresh asparagus was wonderful. The most liked was Milanese and fresh tuna fish. Both wonderful. The only complaint is the service. The waiters push you too much and do not let you enjoy the good food. In the end they make us wait more than 10 minutes to bring 3 coffees. Still ... we had a very good and tasty lunch.

The food is well priced but not really the high standard it used to be a few years ago. I think their prices have remained still but the quality is not top notch. It’s perfectly good enough for lunch and the service is the same unique experience, but I can’t help feeling if you want excellent Italian food, there are better places in the City, albeit charging slightly more. The scallops and bacon seemed more quantity than quality. The quantity was much better than Giorgio’s but the presentation was basic.

We were looking for a hidden gem and indeed we found it! A real Italian, rustic and felt like I was back in Italy in the 80s. So nice waiter. Not huge portions but would say correct Italian portion. Pasta vongole so tasty. And a simple statement no parmesan for you by the waiter, as it should be! The daughter loved pappardelle with meatballs, the meatballs were small and tasty, perfect so you could easily get a meatball with the pasta, good mushrooms and very good tomato sauce. And the espresso finally I got a nice cup in London. Loved it!!

We visited the restaurant for lunch on Thursday. The restaurant was very full. A fantastic atmosphere. We asked for Ossobuco on the menu, a dish that we had tried the other time and liked very much. Unfortunately, it is not in the menu this time, a tall, very funny waiter explained to us, but he suggested the famous Milanese. One of the chef's specialties, he told us.I asked for veal Milanese while my friend asked for chicken Milanese. It was truly a fantastic dish. A big well done to the chef and the service, who, although they were super busy, the food was fantastic. Well done.
