Artusi in Southwark

Food was delicious, service was excellent, truly recommend!

Super tasty food, good portions and staff is so nice 🤤👍

A tasty and memorable lunch today. Will be back

Just wow! Delicious food, brilliant service - they could charge double what they do and I'd still go. A rare gem of a restaurant.

Underwhelming. Food wasn't bad, but lacked flavour and was unmemorable.

Fabulous food and service. Manager was so helpful and friendly. The food was sublime, and great to be able to have a small plate of gnocchi. They were the best I've had for a long time, melt in the mouth and delicious sauce. Will be back for sure

Enjoyed a wonderful family get together for Sunday lunch in Artusi catering for variety of ages. Great food with very professional service. Keep up the good work! Will certainly revisit next time we are in Peckham Ml

Always brilliant food. Always great service.

My wife and I have lived on Bellenden Road for twenty years but had never visited before. We decided to have our anniversary dinner there. What a disappointment, it was not worth the wait. The restaurant lacks warmth, both in atmosphere and the personnel. The food was okay, but my wife can cook any of those dishes to a high degree. The pork loin was completely flavourless, no seasoning in the breading (which was a surprise, there was no mention of it being breaded) so I had to ask for salt and pepper just to make it interesting. For the prices we expected food to a much higher quality. Worst of all was the service. Both servers were inattentive, indifferent and ineffective. I resented paying the service fee added to the bill.

I first came here soon after it opened and have been hankering to return ever since. The Sunday lunch set menu is good value, with three courses at £29. I started with a tasty pepperonata (stewed peppers, tomatoes and olives) served with very good bread and ricotta cheese. For main I had a decently sized cotoletta alla milanese which came with a delightfully mustardy salad and well-cooked potatoes. Rounded it off with a silky mascarpone ice cream. Won't leave it so long until my next visit!

Amazing food, top quality. Service was good too. All round excellent experience, the mandarin sorbet was the best sorbet I’ve ever had! 🍊

Outstanding dinner. The speck ravioli and white chocolate mousse were out of this world. Incredible- I can still taste them. Thank you Artusi!! <3

Always simply amazing food. Chefs table was great. Four courses to die for.....x

I had a wonderful meal at Artusi to celebrate my birthday with my family and friends. We were able to have the group table at the back of the restaurant and it was a perfect setting. Lovely atmosphere, delicious food and great value. Would definitely recommend to others and the staff were also lovely.

Really disappointing experience, as I’d heard such good things. The menu was extremely limited - only three main courses to choose from, two of which were vegetarian. The pasta dishes were really bland. The wine list wasn’t good. It honestly felt like the kitchen had run out of ingredients and could only whip up some bland pasta. The service was unenthusiastic and lacklustre.

Top quality food. Refreshing to go somewhere with a ‘curated’ limited menu that reflects the fact the dishes are fresh, chosen and developed by the chef, rather than being generic. Good value for the quality of food.

Everything is done incredibly well. Difficult to impress a diner with a bowl of pasta on a Sunday, but you do it exceptionally well. I love how much thought has gone into your wine selection (please keep that Valpolicella!), service is wonderful and prices sensible. Thank you!

Lovely lunch today, place was buzzy food delicious

Friendly, welcoming, excellent food...no stress

Great neighbourhood Italian. They know their stuff when it comes to flavour combinations. Can’t stop thinking about the sardines and bruschetta. Perfect. Dropped a star because we couldn’t relax between courses as they needed the table back. We were made aware of this in advance and understand the need to maximise covers but 1 hour 45 is not long.

We booked Artusi for a birthday celebration for 14 of us and the staff were absolutely amazing, quick to respond to my queries before the booking and on the night our server was so friendly, attentive and amazing with all of our dietary requirements and requests. The food was absolutely amazing, cooked so well and so tasty - would definitely come here again!

Absolutely wonderful. The only thing that’s going to dent the experience is its inevitable popularity once foodies cotton on to the fact the small menu is delectable. This understated establishment uses locally sourced seasonal ingredients and makes just the best fresh pasta in town

Had a lovely lunch here today. Couldn't fault the food, service or ambience. Everything was homemade (pasta, ricotta, etc)

Fabulous, tasty rustic Italian food. Lovely atmosphere, although quite noisy when full. It's a popular restaurant, quite understandably! So close to other tables we got chatting to our neighbours who all agreed what a lovely place it was. Menu is very short so choice is limited, but that didn't worry us.

Had another fantastic meal at Artusi. Great, flavoursome food; a good and well priced wine list and friendly, knowledgeable service. Artusi has never been anything less than excellent.

Food was very tasty, and very reasonably priced, it was a set menu on the day we went so it was extremely limited choice. But well worth what I payed for the quality of the food.

the food is pitch perfect, and the set menu is amazing value. good vibes and great service. highly recommend

Firstly, lovely staff who made us feel very welcome. Secondly, £29 for a 3 course in these times is unheard of, incredible value. Thirdly, the food was delicious. Hearty, wholesome and seasoned well.

I’ve been going to Artusi since they opened, and since I’ve moved away from the UK I make sure I go there every time I’m back. Best restaurant in London

Really lovely, neighbourhood vibe, well-balanced dishes, seasonal menu, nothing too fancy but really tasty and interesting, and they accommodated every single dish without dairy for my girlfriend. Couldn’t ask for more, loved it.

"We visited Artusi on 18th December and shared the steak special. It was absolutely delicious and very generous. Service was attentive, with a light touch, and we had a marvellous evening. We'll definitely return."

Great dinner( sharing) Had a lovely evening

Thanks so much to everyone who served us, and to the Chefs at Artusi Peckham. The food and value for money is exceptional. We’d recommend the Chefs table for any celebration with a larger group of friends and family. Just lovely. x

Been meaning to visit this place for a while and finally made it there last night. Lovely simple decor and friendly staff. The menu is small and changes frequently. Everything was delicious (the leeks in particular), we will definitely be visiting again.

Our favourite neighborhood spot. Food is fabtatsic, vibes are perfect. Always a winner!

Friendly staff warm atmosphere, and really tasty Italian home cooked food. Planning on visiting next time we’re in town. 🥰

Delicious food, big portions and very friendly staff! I have been here twice and I love it, I highly recommend their Sunday set menu for £29

An excellent fixed price Sunday lunch (£29 a head) that even catered for vegetarian & gluten free diners.All the dishes we had were great, such interesting flavours & the staff v attentive but not intrusive. We look forward to coming again soon.

Rather disappointed especially given the good I've seen. Visited for the Sunday set menu. The starters were ok. The main dish was disappointing, with watery sauce and little flavour. The dessert was good, but the caramel was too dark and very bitter, not in a nice way. Bit sad as I expected this place to be better. The place got busy so plan your visit and book ahead.

A really lovey small restaurant with a short, but delicious menu. There is an interesting selection of cocktails to start and snacks if you like. The menu had a vegetarian, fish and meat choice for starters, pasta and main courses with a couple of desserts. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced, a real treat for the tastebuds.

Lovely place, really delicious food - feels special without being too pricey. The back room is great for parties. Highly recommend

Another fantastic evening at Artusi. The food was top notch as always. A long term favourite that is consistently excellent.

A lovely anniversary dinner at Artusi. Food is superb, cosy and a personal favourite for great Italian cuisine.

Booked the chef’s table for 15 of us for a Sunday birthday lunch. Great communication with the team before hand - really helpful , lovely service and tasty food in a convivial atmosphere . Would highly recommend !

It is always a delight to have a culinary experience together with a good service and lovely environment.

Had the early bird meal. Was very impressed with the value and food quality, it included a main, drink, desert and it was absolutely perfect for a nice early dinner. The staff were friendly and helpful and the place had a nice atmosphere with good lighting. Will be going back to try the full menu!

Gorgeous seasonal Italian food, great wine list.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed another amazing dining experience at Artusi on Saturday night. A cosy yet buzzy environment. The staff are always so welcoming and friendly, the food is delicious - the menu changes regularly - serving simple seasonal Mediterranean dishes packed with flavour. I had the pasta with Cavolo Nero to start followed by the fresh Mullet. A great wine list to complement the cooking. In would highly recommend a visit. Book in advance as they get busy!

I’ve been wanting to try Artusi for 2 years since I moved to the area and today I finally stepped inside for their Sunday 3 course set menu for £29. Every single dish was full of flavour, the staff were attentive and there was a really nice ambiance, I’ll be back.

Lovely food, great service. They handled am allergy really well. Totally recommend and we will be back.

I think I’ve just found my new go-to spot! I was driving to a bakery nearby when we stumbled across this gem of a restaurant. It was a Sunday, and we booked a table right away for later that day. The food was incredible—super fresh and bursting with flavour and the service was spot on. Honestly, what more could you ask for? Thanks for making our Sunday evening so lovely!

A consistently great local restaurant!

Don't know where to begin with this excellent spot. The menu changes every 2 weeks. It's an extremely short menu which I absolutely adore. They have a great menu of really delicious aperitif cocktails & a great wine selection. The icing on the cake was we could get any of the dishes gluten free, including the pasta. Service was great too. Literally 0 complaints, can't wait to go back.

Amazing dishes as always and friendly service of the waitress :)

Great food, better than we have eaten in Milan and Turin,

Really good restaurant with excellent food and service.

Every now and then I come across a dish that surprises and truly delights, here it’s the pickled sardine starter. The ragu was also so very good, we noticed the starter size has a different pasta to the main, perhaps they ran out but whatever the case the starter was delicious. The mains were nice too but we thought the starters were more stand out. One thing that could be improved is to serve cocktails in nicer glassware, served in a small water glass filled to the brim is not the same experience. Looking forward to next time.

Had a fabulous lunch, great food, friendly helpful staff, the place had a great buzz

Always terrific food at Artusi, the only problem is food envy, I want to eat it all! All 3 courses were terrific as was the wine. The staff are really lovely too, knowledgable and warm. My favourite restaurant in Peckham!

Artusi is consistently great, the service is personal and generous, the food is beautifully prepared and the atmosphere relaxed and friendly. I had my birthday lunch downstairs next to the kitchen with 13 friends which was a lot for the space but it never felt too cramped, it was perfect! Everyone loved the food! Thanks and see you again soon, Kevin x

A lovely neighborhood restaurant. The food was fabulous and service great.

An absolutely amazing night at Artusi - as always. They helped me and my friends celebrate my birthday in style! The food was exceptional and service impeccable. Thank you!

Always really nice, fresh and flavourful food with a great atmosphere

Great sharing table at the back, semi private area, delicious food and helpful service. The cake and starters (chorizo /ricotta peaches) were especially delicious. Thanks so much!

Service is a bit slow, but the food Is really good. The menu changes according to what is available on the day and the dishes presented are very elegant and delicious.

Beautiful food and immaculate service. Such warm, friendly and inviting people FoH and in the kitchen. Clearly they love what they do, and they do it so, so well.

Great well designed summer menu, very well executed. There’s a very small choice of dishes but given the small numbers of covers, that means quality is at the forefront. A small but interesting wine list. An excellent neighbourhood restaurant with a much wider reputation.

Fabulous cocktails, good flat iron steak, free corkage on Tuesday - top evening out.

Really good pasta on the lovely Bellenden road. The terrasse is lovely and pasta super tasty

We had a fabulous meal at Artusi last night. There was a large group of us and the staff looked after us so well! I have eaten at Artusi many times in the past and the big family style table at the back of the restaurant is our favourite place for a big group (up to about 12 people I think). Last night the food was even more delicious than normal and we had a fabulous time. I can’t recommend Artusi highly enough!

Delicious meal. Lovely staff. A very enjoyable dining experience.

Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. I would love to visit again soon!

Amazing food! Went for lunch, 3 choices of entry, 3 choices of main and 2 desserts. It was delicious!

Great food, atmosphere and service. Would highly recommend.

Love you guys, thanks so much for a wonderful evening- one of my fave spots to eat in all of London

This is one of my favourite places to eat in Peckham. Try it!

Thanks to everyone at Artusi who made our evening so special. We had the sharing menu and the food and service were exceptional. Not only was each dish delicious, fresh and generous, the menu as a whole was so carefully considered and perfectly balanced. We had a great celebration meal. Highly recommend.

This is my favourite restaurant locally. The food is always perfection - I'm never disappointed. Plus it's fantastic value which you can't often say about a London restaurant. I've had birthdays, baby showers and mid-week treat lunches (there's an excellent pasta + glass of wine deal!) here and I hope I'll be returning for years to come.

This is a delightful restaurant with a superb seasonal menu and well trained enthusiastic staff. I always enjoy eating there.

I always recommend Artusi to my friends. My favourite restaurant in Peckham

Adding an update to my previous review - the best team, food and atmosphere. Recommend the chef’s table for groups of 8+. I’ve been for lunch and dinner and both are well worth the visit! Great for groups with amazing platters of food. Staff were friendly and good atmosphere.

We had a delicious, joyous lunch at Artusi after getting married at Southwark Register Office up the road. The restaurant accommodated our large party and a number of tricky food allergies with ease. The staff was incredibly accommodating and made the celebration so special. Artusi is one of our favorite local neighborhood restaurants but I can’t overstate just how world class the food is. Folks visiting from NYC and the far reaches of East London were blown away by the set menu — watermelon and ricotta, pickeled mackerel, homemade crab butter pasta, pork and salsa verde and olive oil cake with fresh peaches. It was all divine!

Absolutely delicious food here, as always! Lovely ambience - relaxed and friendly vibe. We’ll obviously be back!

We booked the 6pm saver menu and it was quick and great value. Drinks especially were really good. Would recommend!

Delicious food and fantastic service in my neighbourhood! Highly recommend!

Friendly, relaxed and professional service. The food was so tasty and the atmosphere is wonderful. It's taken us too long to visit for the first time so we'll be back again soon!

A lovely small restaurant with interesting food and a great atmosphere.

Delicious, fresh food. Pasta was cooked perfectly.

Great food and lovely staff. Always enjoy a visit to Artusi.

Went for the 'early bird' special and it was well worth it: a large pasta dish, dessert, and glass of house white/red for 20 GBP cannot be beaten for value! Everything tasted great and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend this spot.

Fantastic flavours, helpful and friendly service. Will have dinner here again.

Sunday 3 course set menu (2 choices each) was innovative, seasonal, delicious & great value. Service, friendly attentive staff, ambience & wine list (Tenuta Stella Malvasia ❤️) all commendable.

Fantastic restaurant. We booked out the private dining room for a birthday. Brilliant food and really lovely atmosphere

Another great evening at Artusi. Delicious and generous spirited.

Excellent pasta, great wine to go with it

Great food from a small frequently changing menu

Our dinner last night was stunning. The menu was short and clever, and all so delicious. We (three) loved getting our starters, and then later our mains, simultaneously. Harder to do, obviously - and done perfectly. Such a nice change from the “all our plates are designed for sharing“ line. Anyhow a wonderful evening, thank you.

Superb linguine and friendly service. Not so happy about the house red but had a lovely Portuguese after that.

We have been to this small Italian Reston Peckham several times and have always enjoyed the food and the ambience. The staff are very friendly too. Highly recommend.

Very good food. However adding a 20% tip without any notice is not on. Perhaps that info should be on the menu? Sliding it on the bill and smiling is not respectful to customers.
