22 Ventidue in Barking and Dagenham

Everything about this restaurant was amazing, the staff was so friendly and the food was so delicious and authentic, definitely will be returning to try more items

Absolutely lovely food, restaurant quality 👍🏻

Unbelievable delicious food , we are regulars and always coming back , amazing service from the staff

Very lovely people.thanks so much for the food

Drove past a few times and often wondered what it was like. Decided to give it a go and what a great decision that was! Felt like an odd place to have an Italian restaurant! However, the food was amazing, great service by the lovely waitress and lovely atmosphere! Kudos 👏🏻 to the chef! Highly recommend and would most definitely be back soon!

I've ordered from here on 10+ occasions now. It's never a bad meal. Always lovely fresh food. Large portions and reasonably priced. Calamari, pizza, Tres Leche, Spaghetti Bolognaise, all amazing.

I have family in Dagenham who have been raving to me about this restaurant for ages and yesterday was the day my auntie took us there to have family meal. Mama Mia 🤌 I instantly understood after the first bite why its highly rated. Unbelievable tasting food and the staff are very friendly making you feel welcome. If you are in the vicinity and fancy proper Italian food that doesn't come out of Tesco fridge then definitely pop in and enjoy authentic Italian food 🍝.

Prices have gone up as much as 50% since i last ordered a few weeks ago & portions are a lot smaller. I know that costs have gone up everywhere but this is ridiculous!!

Hot and very tasty , amazing value .

Food was absolutely amazing, portions were amazing. Unfortunately I never received my 2 bottles of coke, and when you've paid £6 specifically for glass bottles it's frustrating.

waited over 1 hr for rhe food to ve varly warm. the carbanara had puddles of oil. the chicken apollo was tiny cold no peperoni or chesse.

Excellent food, arrived early as well 👌🏾

Amazing and proper Italian food 👌👌

Lovley food. Good price and really friendly. Will definitely be visiting again.

Lamb chop grill extremely tiny, not fit for an adult. The restaurant is far too sometimeish. They pick the sizes of lamb when it suits them. Ordered twice from them last week and the lamb chops were perfect. Its £20 for 4 chops and chips. They gave us a £6 voucher off, so we used it last night and the lamb chops were unbelievably so small, we just burst out laughing 😃 trick off the trade.....they make you think your saving, but their really saving on the meat.... Not buying off them again, because you don't know if you will receive a full dinner that night.

First time being disappointed with Ventidue. Delivery driver rung me, he didn't get out of his car. I had to take the food from the front seat. Fries tasted like they had been reheated in microwave. Pasta portion was half the size we normally get.

The Diavola pizza is the pizza I always order when I go to a restaurant for dinner. It was the first time we ordered it home. I want to mention that the Diavola pizza was so spicy that we couldn't eat it, it was too spicy. We are totally disappointed because we had 3 pizzas and two of them were Diavola. Please be respectful of the food, it has to be edible.

Amazing food and the staff were so friendly, would definitely go back!

Fabulous food every time. Always red hot. Totally lovely restaurant

As good as always, really surprised with early delivery.

Not your run if the mill pizza joint. Their pizzas are delicious and the prawn pasta is amazing. Friendly and quick service. Our go to Italian restaurant in Dagenham

Delicious flavoursome & fresh food, attentive service from Christain & excellent value for money. Jug of iced water & limoncello a nice touch 😊 A truly hidden gem of a restaurant in Dagenham, mum & I definitely be returning to sample more of the impressive menu.......5 stars!

SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!! The kind man who served us was so kind and full of energy :D

we always buy pizza from 22. I have to say this is the first time that we had to wait nearly 2 hours from then order been placed. even though delivery time was expected to be between 7.40-8pm, it arrived late!

Absolutely amazing! Did not expect this in Dagenham. Knew it would be good when we mentioned in local pub that we had booked a table and they exclaimed how lucky we were. Nothing to fault here. Atmosphere, food and value for money. Just fabulous! Christian & Cristina have made this a not to miss culinary experience.

I'm a fussy eater usually, picked the Pollo Alfredo with fries hoping for the Best. The most spectacular meal I think I've ever had, fries were amazing, chicken was divine and the sauce was utterly delicious. Cristian and Cristina were amazing hosts! If I ever come back to London, I'd come back here first!

Amazing food and service A⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️really kind thanks you guys!!!

This is our favourite Italian we visit as often as we can the food is delicious and the service is friendly and welcoming! An amazing little oasis tucked away in Dagenham 🥰.

Lovely local restaurant with really good food. Avarage £25 per person for a dinner.

Lovely Italian restaurant, friendly welcoming staff. My daughter booked up for her birthday meal with the family. Everyone enjoyed their food. Lots of variety. Would definitely come back again.

Very nice people… get a new menu because if my allergy… for free! Very nice restaurant. We come back this week !

very good and nice, however the sun was shining in my eyes and in my personal opinion, i found a certaing thing anoying, there was a constant clicking like noise outside on the table nearest to the glass which has 4 seats, the white box kept making iratating noises. Overall, amazing

Perfect atmosphere, lovely, friendly & attentive staff. Always go above and beyond. Food is 10/10😍🤤

22 Ventidue is the BEST Italian in the area. We’ve been here over 20 times. You must come and see it for yourself.

So glad we stumbled across this lovely restaurant. Very friendly and funny staff. Food was so tasty. Get the tiramisu!

Celebrated a birthday with the family. Food was amazing. Staff very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you, all was so good and tasty 😋

First time coming. Definitely won’t be the last! Delicious food, good atmosphere and reasonable prices! We left very happy and very full! The service was amazing, lovely and friendly staff!

What an amazing restaurant, food was absolutely sublime, beautiful presentation and the taste… wow. Fantastic service and everyone was really kind and friendly. I will be back!!!!

Why did we not come here earlier? Great intimate Italian restaurant (you can see into the kitchen while food is being prepared) which a great addition given the lack of quality Italian food in the borough. Service was friendly and prompt, the food was better than expected. Bruschetta was great, the pasta tasted very good and the pollo fungi dish went down well too. If I had to give something a miss would be the panna cotta as it wasnt as creamy as I’d like and feel like the gelatin may have taken away taste. Unfortunately, the takeaway experience was not great. The food was lacking and had I ordered for takeout, I think I would have never come to the restaurant. Definitely a place to dine in at and not one for takeout.

The staff was absolutely amazing, very friendly family vibe. Was lovely to see that 🥰 and the food omg so tasty 🤤 mouth watering! P.S. shout out to the gorgeous blonde that gave us shots on the house! 🫶🏻

We liked lasagna but it was cold with little meat and no cheese, pure dough I didn't like it

Cristian provides 1st class service, great atmosphere, comfortable feeling, friendly and the food is EXCELLENT, I'm going to make this my regular restaurant 😀

Absolutely lovely as always! Thank you!

First time I have been here even though I live in broad st excellent food excellent service and Christian was a really great guy I would recommend this to everyone prices are very good will definitely go back very soon

Loved it so much we ordered 2 night in a row! Seriously best takeaway delivery we’ve ever had in London (we had pastas, calamari, salads, garlic bread and desserts). Proper authentic Italian food by a chef that knows what they’re doing! Lady on the phone excellent help as well. Perfect.

Amazing quality food. I could eat here every day

Really happy with our order :) Had to call restaurant to notify them of nuts allergy before ordering and the lady on the phone was really helpful despite the restaurant sounding very busy. Fantastic food quality and value, will definitely order from here again and recommend!

Very enjoyable meal. Lovely staff and service.

Wow wow wow seafood pizza was something wow, presentation and taste 10of 10. Love it. Its my pizza nr1. Not for a first time they surprise me.

Today for the third time when I come to this restaurant. When I arrived, I sat down and put my personal things (my bag and a small bottle of water that had medication in it) on the table while I got comfortable and a girl who works at the restaurant came and opened my bottle of water that had medication in it and she put it in a glass without my permission. After she had emptied my bottle she told me that it was not legal to have my bottle with water on the table, something that seems unacceptable to me and I told her that she had to ask me first before touching my personal things and his colleagues started to laugh something that still she makes me angry. My main anger was because she touched my personal things without my permission and her colleagues were laughing. As a professional waitress you should not touch a customer's personal things, first you have to ask and then you touch. The waitress's behavior made me very angry, I got up very angry and left. Bad service with unprofessional staff. I will never come back!!

A great servicing and the authentic italian taste 😜❤

Delivery driver went to wrong address so food was cold. Otherwise would've been pleased.

A rare gem of a place in a totally unexpected location. Found by accident. Super friendly and attentive service and really high quality food. Also Great T Bone and even Tomahawk steaks... and the 'Tres Leche' desert.. wow, just wow! 😍🥰

It's a quiet, clean place and the food is great. Optimal

Food as always delicious. Arrived piping hot. Added bonus of the fantastic discount and free dessert.

I moved to Barking 6 months ago. I wish i found this place then. Wonderful food and unbelieveable service. I lovely family run restaurant which is decently priced and a beautiful bottle of wine

This ‘treat meal’ was above my normal take away price point, but taken due to positive feedback given by personal friends. I was disappointed at how long it took, but assume that may be down to cooking from scratch. However, what I did find unacceptable was something with each of the four courses. I consumed far less than 50% of each course, two courses in particular were so salty I felt it prepared by someone who has shares in Saxo salt! Recommendation or not, not ordering from here again. Big let down.

We went there to celebrate a birthday, we were a party of 13. The service was on point, they made us feel really welcome, cracking jokes, and the service was on point 100percent. The food portion are really massive but nice overall Highly recommended 100 out of 100. xx

Unbelievable place. I did not expect such high quality ingredients, freshly prepared food of such an amazing standard. The food was so authentic, absolutely phenomenal. We ordered few dishes, and every single one was absolutely sumptuous. The funghi risotto was the best I have EVER had in my life. The service is spot on, and they are so lovely. 10/10 recommend!!

Best ever lasagne, deserts and great staff. Well worth a visit

amazing, food still hot when arrived, have visited in restaurant and was lovely, good to know delivery is just as good! best restaurant in Dagenham by far!

Hidden little gem in Dagenham, who would have thought such place could exist. Amazing authentic Italian food. Service and hospitality was superb. The pizzas looked delicious and my spaghetti dish was tasty and plentiful I am looking forward to coming back again and trying other dishes Thank you for the great team who looked after us for my friends birthday

Excellent food. Great portions. Extremely tasty!

Another great meal from here. Cannot fault them.

Very disappointed with this order. Why you always rush your orders. Both pizza and garlic bread was way undercooked. Soft, undercooked crust on Italian pizza is abysmal. Also tiramisù was not set. It was very runny like a dense soup. Please do better.

Lovely food,can't wait to go back

Do not know where to begin. We are Kent resident but we just love coming back her all the time. This is like a home away from home for us. All the staff are so nice honestly if you want to see what a great customer service look like you must visit them.

we are always satisfied with the service. old customers here

I visit the restaurant two time, I liked the atmosphere and staff are nice and friendly, first time I had a spaghetti carbonara it was delicious and so creamy the second time I had a pizza, it didn’t impress me, it was ok. I recommend it, it is nice place👍 I will go there again definitely 👍

When we order pizzas we always order from here. Food quality is always good. Just this time they mixed up the order and delivered wrong pizza. Instead of pepperoni they brought something with olives , mushrooms and other stuff. Bit disappointed.

Pizza brilliant as always, usually all food used to be outstanding, but this time carbonara was the worst we’ve ever tried. Pieces of ham (thought would be panchetta) , sauce felt like mix of butter and milk, plain. Regular customers, but disappointed this time..

Amazing restaurant. Excellent service. Really lovely atmosphere. Family feel. Wonderful authentic Italian cuisine. Can't wait to go back.

Cannot fault this place. Always such tasty food, generous portion sizes and value for money!

It's the first time we have been here. And I'm not sure wot to order. So I look round the room and ask what is that and the staff wos really helpful and explained food was very good. Overall The night was very good. WE WILL BE GOING BACK VERY SOON.

Food is delicious and people are friendly. Such a little gem of a place ..

Once again a great afternoon celebrating my husband's 70th birthday ! Food served very quickly to 17 guests , the pre order works well but happy to change anything at the last minute. Bora and all the staff work so hard ensuring that you have the best of service . Food very good as always . Would highly recommend if you looking for a good Italian and don't want to travel to far !!👏👏👏

My first time coming here, even though it is only 2 mins walk away. I will definitely be returning. Everything was fantastic. A food oasis in the heart of Dagenham. ❤️❤️❤️

Hidden Gem , great food, great service ✨

Was a great evening celebrating our daughters 30th birthday. 22 Ventidue accommodated 32 guest comfortably. The staff are amazing and also the food. We have frequented 22 Ventidue on numerous occasions and have enjoyed everytime. We will be returning and would highly recommend. Great welcoming, excellent food restaurant

So far I have tried many but 22 is the best and knows how to respect its customers

Me and my partner visited for Valentine. In fact the food and service took longer than usual but it was very very busy. However, when the food arrived was hot and extremely tasty while the service is always excellent. Thank you guys for doing an amazing job despite how busy you are. Can’t recommend enough!

Love the food and prices, All staff are amazing and friendly, I have taken friends and family there to dine a few times now , we all.love it. Started off with takeaway delivery's last year during lockdown absolutely yummy, then started eating there after. I totally recommend this excellent restaurant 👌

Overall the food was good however I did receive the wrong dessert (tiramisu instead of tres leche) but by the time I had realised the restaurant was closed. But I must say that the person I gave it too did enjoy it.

What a great meal we had at this family run restaurant. It was my first time here, but my friends had eaten here many times and wanted me to experience it. It did not let my friends down. A great meal with great warm, genuine, friendly service. I will happily return the next time I visit my friends.

Always made to feel welcome. Everything is great about this little restaurant

Not like them but my order was very salty (garlic spinach) and too much sauce (crab ravioli). I could not eat it. Usually fabulous food… what happened?

I highly recommend this restaurant; the food is fantastic, and they make you feel like part of their family; please book in advance for the weekend; it is always busy.

Just found out about this little place, what a loverly find too. The food was so very tasty and good portions too. I’ll be back ! And so will my friends - thanks you and a great service 🙏👍

My favourite Italian in all of London. Authentic Italian tastes with Chefs from Sicily, great customer service, always welcoming and always going the extra mile. If you find yourself in Dagenham I highly recommend popping in. And if you are lucky you might just be able to get a table ;).

This is my third visit to this little Italian restuarant buried in the heart of Dagenham. The place is very small and noisy but has such great atmosphere. It's always very busy any night of the week you go there which says it all. The welcome you get is as if you are their family members - just can't speak highly enough of the staff. They are so attentive! The food is authentic, delicious and very reasonably priced. Having been to Italy many times, I feel I can genuinely comment on the food. You always get a little tot of Limoncello which makes it all worthwhile. There is a small outside eating area with twinkly lights which I'm sure would be great in summer. There is nowhere else like this in Dagenham to eat out and we are very fortunate to have this place on our doorstep!!

Really authentic Italian food. Great food, great service and great atmosphere. My go to Italian when I’m in the area. We went for a birthday meal and it was a memorable evening. The staff are so friendly. I had a prawn starter which was outstanding and the seafood spaghetti which was delicious.

Just back home after a birthday meal at Venidue. It was my first time but it won’t be my last. The food, the service and the atmosphere was amazing. Authentic Italian food in Dagenham! It reminded me of a lovely holiday in Venice. I cannot recommend more highly.

Top place! Excellent food and service! We were treated like part of the family.💜 We'll defo come again!

Beautiful spot with perfect authentic Italian cuisine and 5-star service!

Great customer service, very welcoming and friendly. I would recommend the lasagna, the portion size is good and the taste is divine.

Risotto was horrible. It had a consistency of a soup.

Fantastic pizza and pasta at this restaurant

This place was certainly a pleasant surprise as I wasn’t expecting this place to turn to my favourite Italian. Hands in heart it was one of the best Italian food I’ve had with such a cute atmosphere. Thank you. I will be back!

The best place to eat hands down, the price and taste out beats the locations, even though I’m a local. Come and become a member
