Pleasant outside terrace, lovely staff, really delicious food. Great place for a summer afternoon but can get hot if not under shade.

Despite getting a booking reminder 48 hours in advance of our meal there, all eight of us arrived to find it had shut two months earlier. Nobody had told us. If you like looking at newspaper covered windows rather than eating, you will love Bacco. If you like having to arrange alternative eating arrangements with nil notice, you will feel at home with Bacco. If you want a nice meal, tough - you're too late

The service and attenion to detail was extraordinary. I have two young guests not feeling well that day and the waiter has gone out of his way to come up solution for the meal which was not on the menu. The kids were very happy with the meal.and ate them all. They were feeling pampered with the excellent service.

We had a table of ten following a business awards ceremony in London, the restaurant is convenient as it's next to the Premier Inn where we were staying, we also dined at the restaurant 2 years ago when we previously attended the awards. The staff are excellent, good service and the food is lovely. In the summer i expect the rear courtyard area is very pretty and a little diamond hideaway from the busy London streets.

This place is a hidden gem. One of the best Italian restaurants i ve been in London. If authenticity it's what you want then this is the place to visit. A true Italian experience of food and hospitality. Amazing selection of wines from every corner of Italy and extremely professional staff. Cozy and friendly atmosphere throughout the night We were a group of 5 and had 3 courses each from A La Carte, I went for bresaola followed by spaghetti crab, which was superb and full of flavour. For dessert i had a chocolate mousse, couldn't resist it as i love Italian sweets..great presentation and the portion was just right. As a wine we have been recommended a bottle of Tignanello from Tuscany which was a bit pricy but well worth it. An elegant style with floral and fig notes, very sophisticated with a nice generous tannin structure. If you are a wine lover you will definitely enjoy that. Really recommend this place , looking forward to visit again!!

It's a good place to go if you don't like noisy restaurants, you can hear each other as the tables are well spaced apart.

Made a last minute reservation for two. Just wanted some decent menu, classic Italian pasta and wine. But because it was Valentine's Day, they setup a v-day set menu.. with very limiting options. For £55 pp (not including drinks) which we only realised towards the end. Wouldn't mind paying the money if I enjoyed the food.

For £55pp which we only realised towards the end. Wouldn't mind paying the money if I enjoyed the food. Ambience, service all aside- food was not up to mark at all. Desert was the only good part I guess. My partner left most of the food from each course. Totally isn't worth it. But again, may be the menu is better on a regular day. I felt mugged! Just because it was V day, the price for things were overpriced. And when I asked for a regular menu, they said they are only doing Valentine's menu. How ridiculous! For the price we paid, I could fly to Italy, have a decent meal and be back the same day! As an avid Italian food lover, I was heart broken. I am sorry but I shall not be returning.

Booked a table on Saturday for a simple dinner for 2 before a birthday party. On arrival to the almost empty restaurant, I was promptly given a table by a fire exit, (which I asked to change to a table away from the door and in a more pleasant part of the restaurant). The chair at the first table had also seen better days and sank down as soon as I tried to sit in it, which was another reason I asked to move. On being seated at my new table I was given 1 menu, even though I had booked a table for two. The waiter seemed disinterested frankly. When my partner arrived she was left to sit at the table for quite a while without a menu until we requested one. We ordered our meals and drinks, then had to ask again for bread, instead of it being brought to us. The first course of fried calamari was tasteless and bland, with more breading than squid and at £15 a portion it was not good value at all. When asked if I enjoyed my starter, I told the waiter that I didn’t like it as it was very dry. My £16 spaghetti crab was smothered in tomato sauce and it could have been any kind of protein in there, tuna, sardine, it’s impossible to tell. My partners seafood orecchiette was adequate, but was still £18 Desert was a dark pannocotta which was ok. £8, we asked to share one and two were brought to us, so 1 was sent back. The bill came to £115 (including an obligatory 12.5% service charge), and with a top table discount on the starters and mains knocking £30 off that total to make it £85, I really don’t feel this place is either good value for money or worth visiting again. The food was bland and indifferent, much like the waiting staff and the decor. I feel this is a tired West End restaurant, knocking out overpriced and sub standard food to people on business or shopping. If you are going to spend £100 you should expect a great meal and considerate service. This was very far from that.

Had the 3 course meal with unlimited wine/prosecco for £35. The food was absolutely delicious and incredibly good value. Considering that it was unlimited, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that both the wine and Prosecco were very nice. The only thing I would have liked to see would have been more options for the desserts in the set menu. The service was speedy, and our waitress was lovely. We had a very nice time - would definitely recommend!

We had the £35 set three course menu with unlimited wine and despite the food being somewhat unexciting, it was very good value. The starters were excellent but the main courses slightly less so.

ate there on spur of moment after seeing how welcoming it looked from the outside, We were lucky to get a table on spec but I would recommend booking this restaurant. The menu was not very extensive, which can only be a good thing with a restaurant of this caliber, Everything was cooked to order and extremely tasty, Excellent wine list of Italian wines from every corner of Italy. We chose a Sicilian white which was extremely palatable, Service was excellent. A little bit expensive, especially when the service charge was added, which sometimes you forget about, but you do get what you pay for but if you wanted something cheaper, just visit one of the Italian chained restaurants.

Delicious food in a lovely restaurant. We were a table of 10 and all enjoyed our chosen.

This is my 5th time at Bacco and we chose the unlimited wine + 3 courses offer. The set menu that came with this was a wee bit limited but the dishes were indeed up to Bacco's usual standard so it didn't matter in the end. I had pappardelle with rabbit ragout and my friend the chicken leg dish; both of us happy with our choices. We both had the squid to start and again very happy. After the first couple of glasses of wine one does need to prompt a little for a refill but they do so with good grace. Service really good and ambience too, though it wasn't very busy the night we went. This is a firm favourite in the area now for me.

What a fabulous find! From the minute I walked in this lovely little restaurant felt welcoming and warm. The staff were delightful and accommodating, the menu had so many delicious choices it was hard to choose (although they do make you choose from either the fixed price menu or the a la carte, you can't pick and mix!). The wine list was great if a little on the expensive side, but the food was typically Italian and very flavoursome. Lovely comfortable decor, and a not very alarming bill. Will definitely revisit.

Enjoyed a perfect evening in the lovely and relaxed atmosphere that is Bacco. The special prices offered during restaurant festival month in London made it even more delightful. I was in awe of the smoked eel risotto. Perfectly cooked and with a delicate flavor profile. The scallop starter was a fantastic mix of spicey fresh ginger and shredded chilis accompanied by three sauces that made the dish really pop. It's worth a trip just to order these two dishes. If I were in London longer I would be a repeat customer. My compliments to the chef.

UNA NOTTE BELLISSIMA - We were looking for a nice, cosy spot for a girly get together after not seeing each other for a number of years. Having all lived in London before and been lucky to enjoy many nice restaurants around town over the years, we wanted to try somewhere new and Bacco did not disappoint. From the moment we walked into the restaurant we were greeted with smiles - the ambient lighting, beautiful decor and authentic Italian staff and Front of House made us realise in an instant that we had made the right choice. We went for a set menu with wine and prosecco and were treated like VIP's the whole night. Nothing was too much trouble and we were not rushed, but enjoyed a lovely long evening of freshly cooked Italian cuisine, flowing wine, great atmosphere and attentive and personal service. We had a giggle with the wait staff - the place felt like a fine dining establishment, but it was so relaxed and friendly, you were instantly at ease, a kind of 'home away from home' feeling. We all agreed that this was now to become our official "Renunion Restaurant", each time we have the chance to get together. Grazie a mille for a wonderful night - we will be back! :)

We booked a table for our anniversary dinner, surprised at how quiet it was, but apparently lunchtime is their busiest time. Excellent service from very knowledgeable and friendly staff who described the chef as "creative" which it certainly was - and I mean that as a compliment. I had soup to start, which was not your usual bowl of liquid, until rather a delicious concoction based on beans, with green vegetables with cherry tomatoes - sounds weird, but was really good. Hubby had crispy squid which was equally good. Mains was saffron risotto - again unusual, bright yellow, with shavings of liquorice to add a sweet taste; very rich, and very tasty. Our other mains dish was rabbit, which I'm told was delicious. We shared a homemade tiramisu for pudding, which was good.I'd definitely recommend this place, but be prepared to try something a bit different, and follow the waiters recommendations.

My husband and I had our anniversary dinner at Bacco on Tuesday. When I made the reservation I mentioned the occasion, the staff took extra care to organise a really romantic setting for us with candles and dim lights. The food was fantastic! I had the trout fillet with salsa verde and he had the lamb rack. It was all cooked to perfection and presented in a very attractive way. We shared a bottle of Pinot Grigio and I couldn't help my sweet tooth so I had passion fruit creme brûlée. I recommend with two hands.

We went there because I love italian cuisine, we've been there before and we thought not to take the chance somewhere else, we knew we liked it in the past, so we wanted to make sure we'll enjoy our dinner. Wrong. Nothing was the same, nothing was as tasty as it used to be. The menu is not very big, not too many choices. I asked for grilled fish, without any oil on top, the waiter was nice, went down to the kitchen to ask the chef if he can make it for me, he aproved, so now I was just looking forward to eat. I chose some mixed vegetables and mashed potatoes together with the fish. DISAPPOINTED! Totally, entirely! The fish came without anything in my plate than a piece if lemon and my "mixed" vegetables were: potatoes, spinach and some beans; as you can see jn my attached picture. I am sorry I didn't take a picture of my filet of fish. I haven't seen anything as bland as my food in this place! The waiter didn't tell me what would be jn my vegetable plate, because if I knew there would be potatoes, I would not order mashed potatoes as well!!!!! No passion for their job at all! No dedication! Thank God the wine was good! Never back again! Not even if they pay my transport and my dinner!

Cadre froid, plutôt cantine, tres bruillant. Le personnelle est acceuillant, service tres rapide. La pizza est bonne, la pâte est excellente, un peu trop de fromage.

I came to London to see Taylor Swift at Wembley stadium and stayed a few days for some sight seeing/touristy activities - I had a great stay at La Gaffe! I stayed in their single room, which is their smallest room. They openly advertise as being very compact, and it was...But I'm not traveling all the way to England just to sit in a hotel room all day so I honestly didn't care. But if you're traveling with a second person or prefer more space, I'd definitely suggest one of their larger rooms. My room was very clean...I wiped everything down with a disinfecting wipe upon my arrival (I do this at all hotels) and it didn't pick up a speck of dirt or dust! I prioritize cleanliness at hotels over room size, so I was very pleased. The room did not have air conditioning, but there was an overhead fan that kept temperatures comfortable on the two sunny days of my visit where outside temperatures reached 75f/24c. Breakfast is a plentiful selection of cold foods - they had croissants, rolls, bread for toast, hard boiled eggs, meat, cheese, and a selection of cereals. They also have condiments like Nutella/jam/butter, as well as juice, milk, water, and a basket of fresh fruit. The food and drink options were frequently replenished throughout breakfast so nothing ever ran out. They also have an espresso machine and will make you any coffee drink of your choosing, which I loved. I was perfectly happy with croissant sandwiches and lattes every day! The staff at La Gaffe were very kind. I tripped and injured my ankle while sight seeing during my stay; they gave me ice to help with the swelling and told me where I could find the closest pharmacy in case I needed anything. They also gave me good directions on how to get back from wembley stadium late at night, which I appreciated. Location wise, La Gaffe is great. There is a tesco express grocery store within a 5ish minute walk of the hotel that is open daily until midnight, so it's easy to grab snacks, a cheap meal, or a cold drink at any time during your stay. There is also a pharmacy, tons of restaurants, several bakeries, and many clothing stores nearby so there's lots to do even on days when you're jetlagged and don't feel like venturing far from the hotel. The hotel is a quick walk to the hampstead stop on the Northern line, which leads directly to tons of popular areas including Camden market, covent garden, Leicester Square, and Westminster. The walk back to the hotel from the hampstead stop involves quite a hefty hill though, so be prepared for a workout if you have luggage with you! All in all I'd absolutely recommend la gaffe to anyone looking for a great, affordable, no frills stay and I'd absolutely stay there again.
