Cacciari's in Kensington and Chelsea

What a shame we weren't able to return during our stay! We went on the first evening as soon as we arrived, and it was the best way to acclimatise to London, with a gradual transition from Italy to the British kingdom :D they are very good, they make a pizza that will fly away and they had no problem making us a variation vegan, with veg mozzarella. Thank you all, and who knows we'll be able to return for that dessert soon! We took two space pizzas and the atmosphere is really super. Highly recommended if you miss home a bit <3

Excellent quality, friendly and polite staff. Very good pasta

Recently updated, looks fabulous, same great food and service.

Nice restaurant in the heart of South Kensington, with the feel of a French brasserie. Italian classics delivered really well.

Will not be scammed again. The slices of bread were about 4cmx4cm, nothing like advertised. Don’t recommend!

The atmosphere of this place is very cozy. The food was great. Would recommend to any lover of Italian food. The Cacio e Pepe was amazing one of the best pastas in London.

Not all rosy. My escalope Milanese was just a very large. over-breaded piece of meat, I suggest they should halve the size of the escalope snd add vegetables and a salad instead.

Newly renovated, beautiful! Food is good as ever and so is the service

Went with a group of work colleagues for Christmas meal, service was excellent.the food was very good fresh and well prepared. Would recommend this restaurant.

Overcooked pasta and poor quality pizza dough

We did delivery and ate very tasty. Generous and good will be the 2 words to remember. We recommend for refined Italian cuisine.

By chance we found this excellent restaurant, it immediately made an excellent impression on us, excellent first courses and very good pizza, we met the Sicilian manager and the pizza chef, kind and professional people like all the attentive and always smiling staff when we return to London fixed stop, see you soon

Very best people. Excellent service. Great Italian food.

Food was great, everything we ordered was really good. Service was very attentive and welcoming

I ordered on Deliveroo. I wasn’t sure about the composition of a dish and called the restaurant, a very nice lady responded and helped me. The service is great and above all the food particularly good. For a very nice staff and delicious food, I recommend.

Excellent place for anyone who feels a bit Italian today 🙌🏻

Lovely people, great service, fitting interior 🫶🏻

My first time at Cacciari’s; came with a friend on 11 December to celebrate my birthday and everything was fabulous; it’s hard to find an authentic Italian restaurant in London these days, so I will definitely return!

food was 10/10 and the vibes were v nice service extremely poor, we had to wait for ages for them to get our order, delivering food and getting the bill when there were no other customers. They missed items from our order and didn’t apologise and they were all just waiting around at the back

Delicious food. Lovely service. Great ambiance. Thoroughly recommend

I organised the Christmas dinner for my colleagues in Cacciari’s restaurant. The restaurant and the atmosphere was lovely. All the staff members were very efficient and the food was on time. Very well organised and the food was amazing. I highly recommend the restaurant, we really had a lovely time 😊

Food was good and Lisa was a very helpful and fun waitress.

Very nice restaurant with very good food

El cacio e pepe fue increíble y me duele la boca pensando en ello ahora. Mi pareja tenía pizza primavera, que también era excelente. Todo el personal era genial, pero particularmente Khan que nos sirvió. También estaba capacitando a un nuevo miembro del personal, pero esto no afectó su servicio a pesar de tener que equilibrar esto. La paciencia y la amabilidad que mostró con el nuevo miembro del personal fue encomiable.

Lovely food and excellent service from Laura and Lucia. They made my mums birthday extra special!

Quisiera expresar mi agradecimiento a la anfitriona Sonia , que fue realmente servicial y amable , muy profesional y enérgico. No solo hizo un gran trabajo, también fue muy amable y me pareció adorable. ¡Gracias Sonia!

Best restaurants in South Kensington💖

Enjoyed a great evening of dining and conversation in this warm, friendly Italian restaurant. We loved the very original Olipac cruet set (reminiscent of chemistry set and piston valves!).

They have delicious gluten free pasta. I love their crab tagliatelle and mushroom one. It is soooo good. I also enjoyed the chocolate cake. Amazing! This is my favorite Italian restaurant.

Perfect Italian atmosphere! I have been a client for 10+ years and never been disappointed. The staff are nice and make you feel at home. Sizeable portions, healthy ingredients - I particularly advise the pastas (tortellini, tagliolini, cacio & pepe, Bolognese) and the chicken milanese! Alessandro

Where did it all go wrong? Majorly overpriced food for what it actually is, cocktails were mediocre and genuinely rude service. If you're looking for Italian food in London, this is one to steer clear from, unless you enjoy being disappointed.

The food we ordered was good, but the starter - arancini - was fantastic! If it were a main, it would be a popular dish. The staff were attentive and helpful even though we were seated outside, so they didn't forget about us.

The food was very tasty, but the experience was spoiled by part of the service. Most of the staff was good:we were welcomed, our glasses were filled with water upon arrival, which I always appreciate. Whilst my friend and I were still discussing what to order, one waiter asked for our order when I was still clearly showing the menu to my friend across the table, it was obvious we were not ready yet, that was a bad sign. I was not done yet with my starter (arancini with creamy sauce) that the same waiter started clearing the table and took away the sauce. Shortly after, our main dishes arrived when I was still eating my starter. I do appreciate a quick service but that was just rushing us out. After the main course, I finally managed to get up to the washroom as I hadn't had the chance yet to wash my hands. When I came back to the table, my napkin was gone. I was still contemplating ordering a dessert, but after that my friend and I decided to leave and have dessert somewhere else. So although the dishes were good, some staff need to learn the standard of European service and make the difference between a fast food and a more expensive restaurant where the experience is as important as the food. Also the restaurant was sooo noisy and loud, it was not pleasant at all.

A little gem in the heart of Kensington! Amazing food, great service with friendly staff. Good value for money, food was delicious!

Very cozy place, high quality service. The waiters are helpful and attentive. The food is delicious.

Este era el tipo de comida donde deberías dejar de comer, pero era tan delicioso que te mantenía yendo por más. Desde los aperitivos, pasando por la pasta, hasta el tiramisú y el maridaje de vino de Oporto todo fue fantástico. ¡Gran lugar de barrio!

Amazing food and excellent service. We had a lovely evening!!!

Great place! Excellent service, bar, food! Will definitely return!

Love this spot. Great ambience and service - Emil took very good care of us. We had the calamari, bolognese and pappardelle ragu - all incredible and for desert the tiramisu and affogato were delicious. Thank you

Fantastic service, took care of special dietary requirements and also welcoming of dogs. Not to mention, excellent menu and meals are always delicious. Thank you! p.s. Love the refurbishment undertaken at South Kensington!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cacciari’s and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, creating the perfect setting for a memorable meal. The food was absolutely fantastic – every dish was bursting with flavour, beautifully presented, and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. However, what truly made the evening special was the outstanding service from our server, Diana. She was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. Her friendly and professional demeanor made us feel genuinely cared for, and she went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Diana’s service added a personal touch that elevated our experience.

Lovely staff who were really accommodating to get a high chair for us. They magically remember your order without writing it down and they were really conscientious of my friend’s food allergies and helped her with the menu. And the pasta was delicious without being extortionately priced. Recommend

Wonderful good with very friendly staff. Great experience 👍

Super delicious veggie breakfast! 😋

Excellent lunch! The dishes were savorous and perfectly crafted, with impeccable service to match. We will definitely be back

Si te gusta el sonido de fondo que va boom, boom, boom toda la noche, entonces este es el lugar para ti. Descubrí que esto me metió la cabeza. Camarera bastante ambivalente aunque hizo su trabajo. Tuve escapatoria de pollo (milanés), que eran rebanadas delgadas de pollo seco en migas de pan. No muy apetitoso. Cuñas de patata y ensalada bastante buena. Al parecer el salmón también estaba bastante bueno. Pero la música de los golpes lo hizo una experiencia infeliz para mí.

Beautiful food and wonderful service - highly recommend

Food was lovely and the service was great definitely recommend this place

Truly enjoyed our meal here on the first night in London! Very convenient to our hotel and staff was able to fit us in because they were super busy! Truffle balls were delicious and I had a Bucatini Cacio e Pepe that was scrumptious. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Great little restaurant with fantastic food

An Unforgettable Italian Dining Experience! The food was exceptional and the prices more than reasonable, but what truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service provided by Sonia, Dian and Marco who went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. She was attentive without being intrusive and made us feel like cherished guests.Cacciari’s it’s a little slice of Italy right here at home!

¿Por dónde empiezo... vamos a empezar con el personal... recibido con una sonrisa siempre es bueno especialmente cuando entra en un restaurante .. pero no aquí, anfitrión gruñón muy desagradable .. asientos, mesa están demasiado cerca uno del otro mesa a mi lado estaban literalmente en mi regazo .. comida, pedimos salmón a la parrilla, presentación cero seco muy soso, pollo milanés, seco y necesitaba una sierra para cortar a través de él, Tagliatelle boloñesa estaba bien nada vale la pena escribir en casa. En general, no volverá allí en el corto plazo.

We ate bolognese pasta and diavola pizza, with focaccia and grissini for starters. For dessert, a tiramisu was delicious. The service is good although the food may take slightly longer than expected. Very pleasant and lively atmosphere.

The food is absolutely delicious, and I love the ambience. Lisa was our waitress and she was absolutely delightful. Great prices and great quality. A wonderful neighborhood restaurant.

Amazing authentic restaurant. Service is top notch, food quality fantastic. They just refurbished and the place looks fantastic too. Very high quality! Highly recommend!

Very elegant restaurant. The dishes are very good, tasty and sometimes innovative. The pasta, arancini and desserts are highly recommended. Excellent value for money.

Love this restaurant, very tasty Italian dishes!

We met a friend and the lively atmosphere made eating a more exciting experience.

We were told our wait would be 30 minutes & were happy to be seated in 20! A little loud but busy night. Staff attentive, yummy caprice salad & mushroom fettuccine! Chocolate gelato…ahh! Marco made us smile! Check it out! 👍

Food was amazing! A must go in London! The owner is so sweet & from Sicily!

Closed for renovations until early September 2024.

Very ordinary meal, not justifying the prices charged even for the neighborhood. Nothing to complain about the dishes but nothing very tasty either. In terms of service, we had to call again to get water, parmesan and coffee.

I often order from this place and it has amazing food - best pizza and pasta. But the restaurant itself is very old and worn-off.

Though no reservation made, we the group of 11 enjoyed a very nice meal here. Pizza and sphegetti are tasty and suitable for kids. Piadine with aged parma ham is a surprise which I tried the first time here. Staff are very nice.

I was a customer here since 2024 when I was permanent patient in Cromwell Road Hospital. I have to say they’ve alway looked after me. Moved to Dollis Hill now had fabulous take out from the restaurant as I couldn’t find anything of the same standard here. Well done guys, I’ll be there after my next treatment. Niall - the Irish guy

Great experience. Everything is just amazing.

The food here is amazing, definitely homemade and the flavors were off the charts. Worth every penny.

We were a party of 4 and all had something different. It was delicious and a real taste of Italy.

I cold eat the mortadella and truffle piadina everyday and I would never get bored of it. Italian food is always the best!

Good food and wonderful service. Must recommend

Very authentic, staff were lovely wold highly recommend

Good food but high price and the manager is not kind

It was very energetic - as in I couldnt hear my companions 😏. I do have hearing loss tho. The food was divine, and waitstaff lovely and attentive. try it - you won’t be disappointed!

Great pizza and affogato. The wine was average and pricy.

lovely location, nice staff, delicious food, short waiting time. The only thing I didn’t like was the music. I think something more chill would be better. But still, really good restaurant.

Pedimos una pizza en deliveryoo, cuando llegó nos quedamos tan decepcionados, la imagen se veía muy bien pero apenas tenía cobertura en absoluto muy muy escasa básicamente una base y salsa y no mucho de eso, con cobertura salpicada aquí y allá. Y no solo frío, frío piedra. Urrggghh

Mi marido y yo cenamos en este restaurante esta noche y fue perfecto. Teníamos agua con gas, cesta de pan de focaccia, pasta con gambas y el aperitivo de berenjena / berenjena parmesano. Todo fue fabuloso. Incluido el servicio que era de 57 libras. Por coincidencia habíamos cenado en un restaurante italiano para almorzar con amigos y era 100 libras para nosotros dos. Preferimos la cena e incluso teníamos sobras que nos permitieron llevar a casa. Mi favorito era la berenjena / berenjena. Era tan suave, cursi y gooey. Nuestro servidor María era muy servicial con nuestras preguntas del menú. ¡Estamos seguros de volver!

Our go to place in London for nearly all meals

Excellent food !!! Cosy place and Excellent service, specially by Carmen. She is so efficient kind and friendly ! Strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting London.

Lunch time meal, beautiful food and great service.

As soon as you enter the restaurant, you feel that you have arrived at the most fun party in town. Just a cool place. I ate wonderful gluten-free pasta and there was also a gluten-free chocolate cake. All the dishes we got were great, impeccable service.

We had an amazing evening , Food was outstanding , service was great and spot on! I special thanks to Gianmarco and Emil that make our evening so special! Ps: everyone MUST try Pistacchio Espresso Martini! Thank you 🧡

Great staff, amazing and very staty food!! Thank you for the amazing experience!

A truly italian special place ! Definitely the best Piadina in London… Cosy atmosphere and great staff

I recently dined at Cacciaris in South Kensington and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The restaurant has a cozy and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed meal. I started with a piadina filled with aubergine, which was simply delightful. The bread was perfectly crisp, and the aubergine had a wonderful smoky flavor. For the main course, I had the costata, which was cooked to perfection and served with tender, flavorful broccoli. The dish was a testament to the quality and freshness of their ingredients. To complement my meal, I ordered a Blossom Martini cocktail, which was a refreshing and well-balanced choice. And to end a nice Rasberry tart with limoncello!! It added a lovely touch to an already excellent dining experience. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

Great food and amazing service, the staff is really friendly and helpful 😄

Omg the butter and sage tortelli were heavenly. Had to come back to try out breakfast. Excellent service. Would come back again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Diana was an amazing host, she suggested the crab tagliolini which was absolutely delicious😍 everything else was perfection as well, this is definitely one of my top restaurants in London!!

Don’t book - you will be denied the best table in the restaurant that will be given…to people that not bot reserve. Waiter said it was a table for 4 but it was arranged to welcome a party of 2.

Authentic food! Will come back for sure!! HIGHLY Recommend 🥰

Great restaurant and great food! Reasonable prices and very tasty Italian food!

Amazing menu selection and amazing service with a smile. I've tried many cappuccinos in South Kensington, and so far this is the only place that makes them right and just how I like them -- solid foam, not liquid. Their food is delicious. Great pizza options, pasta and starters. Diana has been my host each time and she always recommends the right selection from the menu for me, and always greets me with a smile. This is my second time here, and I will come again. It makes a difference when you dine at a restaurant and they recognize you and pride themselves on taking care of their guests. Diana is simply lovely! The best!

Delicious food with variety. Great service from the staff and wide range of drinks. Inside a little hot when full and busy but that's expected with leather chairs.

A good family style place in South Kensington. Very friendly. Very good service. Has not disappointed me every time I visited. I recommend it.

I recently dined at Cacciari's in South Kensington, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The service was exceptional – the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and providing great recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious. I tried the Tagliatelle al Ragu, which was rich and flavorful, and the Burrata was fresh and creamy. The menu offers a great variety of traditional Italian dishes, all made with high-quality ingredients

Great pappardelle ragu worth the trip

The best food in London everyone will love it come and enjoy it.

Amazing dinner on Tuesday , I’m Italian and the food I can confirm was outstanding, Alex and Marco guide me and my wife during the experience with a smile making us feel very well looked after, Cacio e Pepe deserve a 5 stars.

The Cappuccino was amazing …in a perfect italian style … highly recommend this for special food and coffe

We loved this!! Had the pappardelle with cherry tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella, and the pappardelle with beef fillet ragu - both fresh and tasting amazing!!
