ASK Italian (Gloucester Arcade) in Kensington and Chelsea

Ce restaurant propose un large choix de spécialités italiennes. Les pizza sont bonnes et offre même des options sans gluten . Les prix restent élevés pour une pizzeria mais en rapport avec les tarifs à Londres En résumé, une bonne solution pour déguster italien .

Incluso quizás no sea la mejor, tampoco es realmente una mala opción para este tipo de comida, hay siete alrededor del Gran Londres y esta ubicación es la occidental. Después de un Pompelmocello complementario y un servicio adecuado de Enver be. , llegó la comida pedida, nada espectacular y quizás siempre mejorable, pero bien servida y en una cantidad adecuada. Sorprendentemente, el cargo adicional opcional por la propina del equipo fue solo del 10 %.

Pasamos después de un espectáculo, con la esperanza de conseguir algo de auténtica comida italiana. Lo que nos sirvieron fue tibia y la pasta era como goma. Los sabores eran buenos y amigables con el servicio, pero la atención al detalle arruinó toda la experiencia. Cocinamos mejor comida italiana en casa.

Probably the worst Italian restaurant I’ve tried in London Tasteless food, Poor services Carbonara was watery Arancini they were hard as hell 30 minutes just to get the starters I really regret coming to this place specially on Valentine’s Day Not only that The floor staff was eating in front of the costumers And not even washing their hands Disgusting!.

Food was excellent and staff were very efficient!

Overall the food was cold and the ingredients used were substandard. The Calzone tasted plain and the ingredients used did not add to the flavour. it was overloaded with mushrooms and cheese. The starters were also cold and lacked any taste, the calamari was rubbery, and the coating did not stick properly. Also, the crostini was overloaded with tomatoes leaving it soggy. Isn't crostini meant to be crusty? After spending over £100, the experience was not worth it. I would not recommend.

I told the miss that took my order that I have a garlic intolerance. She informed me that almost all of their dishes contain garlic but I decided to sit. She came back and informed me about the dish I order, she recommended changes and checked on me after I was served. Small things that makes yo u appreciate a place and it's people. The food was also really nice!

Best experience ever lovely food !!! Jerry and Alfred were amazing

Very expensive.. staff weren't very friendly and they charge £4 on your bill at the end for tips. I don't mind leaving a tip but these ppl weren't friendly at all.

Very good food, risotto al dente, good calzone but a little spicy, good pizza, as well as the carbonara.

Very delicious food Enver the chef was very polite Excellent job

The place is nice and spacious and does not require advance reservations. The service is very good. The food is very ordinary. I expected it to be better than this. We ordered a margarita and a truffle. Pizza 10/5. Pasta 10/2. Fries 10/9. I recommend it and order it with hot olive oil. It is delicious with it. The place is nice and can accommodate a large group of people and does not require prior reservation. The service was very good. The food is not very good. I expected it to be better than this.

This restaurant has a very nice ambience and even better food. Upon being seated, complimentary house made lemonade samples were served to us to try and I can say that it was the nicest still lemonade I’ve ever had. I then had a very nice pasta dish with garlic bread. Overall I enjoyed it and would eat here again

Erion was very kind and served us after the kitchen closed. Very grateful for his hospitality!

Perfect welcome even for us who don't speak much English, served in less than 5 minutes after ordering. Succulent dishes!

Great place, pleasant service and very good food

Industrial and not very valuable food. Waiters who don't know foods that have a hint of Italian. Pay attention to the bill! It contains the indication of the tip which they then insert without consulting you! Very bad

the workers are polite and good quality of food

El anfitrión principal, JOVEN, JOVEN DE PELO RUBIO es EXTREMADAMENTE GROSERO! Grita a los clientes, tiene una actitud, ningún servicio al cliente en absoluto. Si yo fuera el dueño lo despediría inmediatamente antes de que te cueste más negocios. ¡NUNCA VOLVERÉ! Y tendré todos mis amigos en la zona que han estado escribiendo sus comentarios sobre su horrible experiencia con esta ubicación y el personal. ¡Tampoco tengo problema en volver a hablar con este miembro del personal!

DONT GO HERE!! EXTREMELY RUDE. Fire the blonde haired young man at the front and he serves sometimes too. He yells at customers and has no professionalism. I’m not sure if he is family but regardless he should be let go before he cost this location more business! I will tell all my friends to write their reviews of their terrible experience with the staff and location. Save your money everyone!

Lasagne undercooked, bit cold and smaller portion than expected, won't go there again

I have been a last Friday and we really enjoyed the food and service! I highly recommend this restaurant . Thank you Dren for your high standard service!

Great place to eat after a day in London!

Horrible absolutely horrible. I do not know what work margarita pizza comes without basil and tomatoes we basically had over priced cheese pizza. Not good at all. I will not come back here ever again

I entered a not very busy restaurant with my wife and two children. I had to ask to be seated, ask to order, ask for another drink, ask for salt, pepper and Parmesan parmigiana, ask for the dessert menu and finally ask to pay. I know it’s called “Ask” but I doubt this was part of their vision. Food was 8 out of 10 and reasonably priced for the location, quality and portion size. 👍🏼 The service was terrible, staff was not attentive at all and definitely on the rude side. Made us feel like we were bothering them just by being customers. Unfortunate as that was the only let down of the experience.

We were freezing after walking with a suitcase and kids when we saw the place and decided to go in. The restaraunt is pure cozy and welcoming , just as the staff, very friendly and smiley. I was checking the menu, but I am very picky. I usually have ti see or smell something to say -this is what I want , since I can't finish a meal because I don't eat much, I want every bite ti be worth it. They have an online optuin where you can also check the menu , so I was going for one thing , but then something with fish sold me out with the picture they have uploaded. My husband had Calcone, I had fish from the specials, my daughter had pasta bolognese, and my cery picky almost 2, years old son , who is very picky as well-had chicken lecca lecca with potatoes from the sides. My husband said that the pizza reminds him as home-so delicious. I had the best tasted fish I have tried for a long time in a restaurant. The pasta also disapeared quickly :) but we decided that the chicken was the best because usually my son doesn't eat it fully , and this time he did-even with little help , cause we tried it. To be fair -I think my fish was the best, but so does my husband said about his pizza 😊 really nice and worthy place to visit. They also hve home made lemonade that is served whrn you get in as shot glass , so we ended up getting it as well, because the kids loved it. :)

This Italian Chain is really nice! We ate here for the first time in 2016 and have fond memories of the restaurant, so we decided to eat here again last week to see if it is still the same. The restaurant has such a lovely ambience and was festively decorated for christmas. The service was also very friendly. I am now vegan and am very happy to have such a good choice of vegan food. I ordered the vegan pizza Pesto Giardino. It could have been a bit bigger, but I still got my fill and it tasted really fresh. My mother had the Caesar salad and was also satisfied, except that the croutons in the salad were unusually soft and could have been filled with something. Classic croutons might have been a bit better. At the beginning we also got a little sip of complimentary lemonade, which was really nice. Overall we were very satisfied and will definitely be back.

Food was mediocre. But, it’s very cute inside and had great staff

Correct to eat in London, which is already a lot. Pasta a little too soggy, normal pizza and sea bass a little overcooked, Correct service but without personality

The oven aubergine raviolli pasta was a bit dry recommended to have more sauce

Very friendly staff and delicious food!!

Excellent food and service! We came with a large group of 60 people, the food was on time and smoothly served, everyone was really happy and satisfied with the Christmas menu and atmosphere. Thank you for the whole team!

Alfred was great! I’d come back next time!

Great experience and great food

I had great vegan Margherita pizza here - they also had a vegan spaghetti that looked nice, plus a vegan dessert. Lovely warm Christmas atmosphere as well.

Delicious food and very nice staff.

Lovely food, staff and atmosphere! They looked after us very well and we had a great time.

Our host Enver was so accommodating and was such a great host for our Christmas lunch! Enjoyed the food and the venue was amazing

Great service and I enjoyed the biscoff cheesecake

We had a lovely lunch here! Amazing service and food and festive vibes. Special thanks to Enver for being so friendly, helpful and professional! Definitely recommend :)

We had a very lovely team Christmas lunch. Tasty food and great service.

Very lovely staff. Had a nice Christmas lunch with colleagues and they were very accommodating. Would recommend for large groups.

Came with our work Christmas lunch. Really great, efficient and friendly service.

Enver served us today for our christmas lunch. The food was very yummy and our server was very welcoming and informative. Definitely recommend!!

Enver was a great server! Went above and beyond!

We had a lovely Christmas lunch for our team at work. Food was delicious and the staff were so sweet and friendly. Thank you!

Enver was great and the whole team were incredible! 5 stars!

Came here for our work Xmas party and the service and food was incredible! Especially Enver. Would 100% recommend coming here

Brilliant lunch. Great food and great service from Enver and the team.

Cutest little lemon plates, very convenient!

Quick, polite service, lovely food

Very friendly. Excellent pesto pizza. Fun drinks

Came in for cocktails and they were great! Staff also friendly :)

Festive cocktails are banging!!

Price is too expensive for mediocre Italian food

The starters, pasta (carbonara), dessert were all spectacular. Tasty food and friendly staff!

Their treatment of Arabs is very bad

Very nice staff. An extremely pleasant stay.

We came to the Gloucester arcade restaurant as a big group, with lots of different orders and dietary requirements, and the staff were so kind and helpful, they really made us feel welcome!

Perfect little evening for me and the kids. Good food choices for our needs. Staff were truly lovely and friendly with the kids

Great food lovely service I will be back again

The service at ASK Italian stands out for its attentiveness and warmth. A waitress name Ceren, was quick to welcome us, offer recommendations, and ensure that every aspect of the dining experience meets our expectations. Ceren’s knowledge of the menu and passion for Italian cuisine add a personal touch.

Amazing service! Loved the food. Will definitely go back again.

As he shall henceforth be known Alfred the Great Thanks for your brilliant hospitality, kindness and attentiveness to our table tonight and accommodating our group of 8 on the spot Your a credit to Ask Italian Cheers Tom

Dinner was great and speedy, even though was very busy

Lovely food, lovely service. Amazing restaurant!

Wir waren aufgrund positiver Bewertungen in dem Restaurant. Positiv: Nette und schnelle Bedienung Negativ: Tisch nicht abgewischt (klebrig) Geschmacklich weit weg von Italien (Pizza Calzone nicht durch, Pasta mit Stern…) Leider keine gute Empfehlung

I ordered sea bass with veggies, and it totally met my expectations! The service was fast, and they seriously took my allergies into account..which I truly appreciated. Would definitely come back to try the other aubergine ravioli.

Very flavourful food, happy ambience, great service and friendly staff!

Nice and very nice environment. Friendly staff

Mientras nos alojamos en un hotel en Kensington justo al lado del metro de Gloucester Road nos dimos cuenta de un pequeño centro comercial con ASK italiano en el interior. Pasamos a cenar y fue fabuloso para una comida casual. El servicio fue muy bueno, con un personal muy amable y la comida era genial, así como nuestro vino italiano. El costo era muy razonable para los estándares de Londres y volvimos a cenar unos días después. Por último, es favorito local incluir familias con niños.

Italian restaurant with very nice decoration. The dishes are very good, but be careful of the spicy dish, if you are not used to it because it is really very strong. A little extra for the desserts which are extremely delicious.

Top marks for a casual, yet quality meal. Complimentary lemonade, lots of options on the menu. The beef ragu tasted properly slow cooked. Pasta was perfect. Bruschetta was a little bland. Decent wines. Looks very popular and full of regular customers.

OMG! The lasagna is delicious!!! The appetizer and dessert as well. We devour our plates.

We have visited this place many times. The service is friendly though a bit slow sometimes. The food is very tasty. Decent portions too without being overwhelming

We took an all day tour and our bus dropped us off right across the street and we hadn't eaten all day. There was plenty of room and the food was AMAZING! It might be the best food we have had on our vacation. Might need to go again before heading home. The caliente calzone was spicy and really good. My husband got a pasta with meatballs and peppers and he loved it and I thought it was good too.

A group of 12 of us went today and despite our numbers the food and service was outstanding. Can’t fault. Well done waitress and cooking staff.

Esperé junto al escritorio mientras los dos hombres del personal armaban un escándalo con otros clientes. Cuando uno finalmente me dio su atención, me dio instrucciones de "sentarme allí" saludando a una mesa. Mi lasaña era muy pequeña y no particularmente sabrosa por el costo de £ 16. 50 . No - uno preguntó cómo estaba mi comida o si quería postre. y / o café. De hecho, me sentí completamente ignorado. Tuve que ir a la caja a pagar y me di cuenta de que, a pesar de la falta de atención, se había añadido un cargo de "servicio" del 10 %. Me habría ido felizmente más si estos chicos hubieran sido incluso vagamente acogedores u hospitalarios. En serio necesitan mejorar su juego.

Complete rip-off, we came at lunchtime for the 9.95 pound formula and they refused the discount and wanted to charge us 100%. We complained and got a poor discount... so we paid 13-14 points each. What generosity. And to top it all off, they took the liberty of being unpleasant and telling us "it's your fault, you should ALL have said you wanted the discount". In short, a restaurant to be avoided, unless you like being ripped off.

Pizza abbastanza buona in ambiente moderno…buona birra alla spina e servizio veloce Prezzi forse un po’ alti ma d’altronde siamo sempre a Londra

A very beautiful and clean restaurant. It will amaze you with the delicious and delicious food it offers in the wonderful Italian style. The service staff is very kind and very cooperative, and the atmosphere is very nice for sharing with friends and groups. I recommend trying it and enjoying the wonderful taste it offers.

Love the food and the ambience, but the service was absolutely incredible. Drini was amazing. He made the whole experience. He is very knowledgable and anticipates the needs of his customers. This was the best customer service experience I’ve had in London.

Had a lovely late lunch with my half at this branch. Fast and polite service, great food, nice location, would definitely come back again. Thank you.

Drinni was our waiter and was excellent. He was friendly and engaging with us and made our dining experience pleasurable.

Food is excellent, especially the calamari and burrata carbonara. The cherry biscotti martini is also a must have. So good, we went back a second time on our trip to London.

Pizzas aren’t good, no taste and really dry. I gave 2 stars only because the lemonade was really good. In addition we didn’t receive what we ordered. Staff isn’t friendly, almost boorish. Music was quite loud. Overall not that great of an experience, I wouldn’t recommend.

L’accueil est moyen il faut chercher le sourire sur le visage du personnel 20 min avant de prendre la cde. Encaissement sans aucun sourire. je déconseille vivement

Really nice place with the best service .The guys and the most Erio was really friendly.We will come back 1000%%% .Thank you so much

Excellent service from Erion and the desserts where amazing!!

Amazing friendly experience from our Waiter erio (sorry if spelled incorrectly :) ) will be coming again 😌

Very normal and the staff are excellent

Great Italian food and friendly knowledgeable servers. We had a great meal with a lovely glass of wine and dessert.

I've been a loyal customer here for years, but today's service was disappointing. The waitress got my order wrong. The food was tasty, but it would've been even better if the staff had been more interactive or cracked a joke or two. The service charge was £15, and while the food was delightful, the service could have been improved. I decided to take off the £15 service charge from my bill since it didn't meet my expectations today.

The food had too little taste. My spaghetti carbonara had 6 pieces of bacon. The prices are not appropriate for what you get

We had booked ahead and informed staff that this was a pre-concert meal. So we were very impressed by the speed of service. Our food was delicious, and the Manzo Piccante I had had a nice chilli heat. All staff were friendly and helpful, even when the restaurant became more busy. We have been to ASK Gloucester Arcade many times before as it is convenient for the underground station, and an easy walk to the Royal Albert Hall. We will certainly choose this restaurant again for all the above reasons.

Reliably good food, served quickly. Great location. I liked the decor... a funny mix of Mediterranean lemon orchard and disco balls! Only disappointment was our waitress who didn't speak a single word to us or crack a smile the entire time we were there.

First day in London and we decided to visit this restaurant. The food was “good”, but the service is really very bad. He Slow service, the waiters come and go in front of you and don't even say “hello”. The price/quality ratio is too high. Bad experience, I wouldn't go back.

We went for dinner and the experience was great. Excellent service. During dinner we were served by three waitresses and the manager and they were ALL kind and friendly. Very good pizzas and spectacular desserts. 100% recommended

It was my first time eating at this Italian chain and it didn’t disappoint. The place was very beautifuly decorated and they even brought a complementary sip of lemonade. The food was great, though the portions were on the smaller side, but we were full anyway! It wasn’t too crowded either so we had a very pleasant lunch!

My daughter and I had an incredible experience for dinner tonight. The food, drinks and service was lovely! 🥰
