Coco Di Mama in City of London, Westminster

Pretty much like eating partially cooked pasta. Sauce had no taste whatsoever. Would have done better buying a budget ready meal. The fries tasted worse than McDonald’s fries. My daughter bought this for me for a treat. Feel sad that she wasted her hard earned money

i had my Suspicions at first because this doesn’t look like a restaurant or anything but Wow did they prove me completely wrong. Coco di Mamá served me a Huge Delicious Bowl of Pesto Pasta and it filled me write up. Not to mention that as soon as I paid they had the food ready for me right then and there! Talk about super fast quality delicious food!

Grabbed a working lunch at the Victoria Street branch - a pasta special with chicken and chorizo: £6 for a pot noodle sized pot - probably would have been better off with Pot Noodle! It was warm-ish, but not hot, average pasta (nothing special - for all its being "fresh made daily") in a watery and tasteless sauce. The parmesan lent it some taste, but a supermarket sandwich would have offered more sustenance. The table I sat at was also grubby, with some really sticky patch which meant I couldn't use it.

Today i went to Coco Di Mama Houndsditch as i fancied pasta for lunch. I ordered the large special of the day which was Tuscan Sausage and Porcini. The large portion is £6.85 which is quite premium pricing for takeaway pasta. When i got back to the office and opened the lid what i seemed to have was a small portion in a large container. It was 3/4 full at best. Hardly any sausage and no porcini that i could see. Pretty disappointing really!

I’ve used coco regularly. The food is ok, but not generous on sauce, meaning sometime the flavour lacked, and at over £6 for a pot of reheated pasta this no longer seems good value for money.

Nice place to stop for breakfast - lovely coffee. The food is relatively healthy but a bit pricey. Friendly service.

Popped in as needed a quick cheap pit stop in central London , menu looked appealing as big glossy pics above counter looked very good . Food arrived fairly quick , service was robotic no emotion style , carbonara looked ok when arrived . Tasted ok for what it was , after closer inspection was just all pasta , tinyest piece of ham in the cardboard pot . Checked pic above counter and the pic was full of pieces of ham . Felt cheated . Wont go back . Match your promo pics and it may work

Came in here, only customer at lunch time, staff acted like they couldn't give a toss. Bad attitude and took ages. Got back to the office and realised my pesto chicken had no chicken (even though they'd charged me for it) and it was stone cold. Won't be coming back here!

Fancied something different for my lunch so tried the Tuscan Sausage and Porcini pasta. £5 for a reasonable sized tub or an extra £1.50 for the large. The Parmesan and chilli flakes on top was a nice touch but... 1. It wasn’t very warm; 2. It wasn’t very tasty; 3. The sausage bits were almost invisible, they were so small. I’d rather go to Itsu.

Can't recommend enough. Super good, great service. Never had the coffee but the meatballs and the carbonara are unfailingly good. Good portion sizes and great value.

I ordered the plain tomato sauce pasta with chilli and parmesan. It was a nice portion for less than £5 and the sauce and ingredients tasted fresh. My only complaint would be that I could taste no chilli whatsoever.

Apart from only preparing 2 coffees instead of 8, the service was okay. Only went in for coffee & should have gone next door. Pret' s filter coffee has more taste than the example given too me. Also it was so hot, even with milk, that we all had to wait ages before drinking. Go next door!

I have been to Coco Di Mama three times now for lunch. First time was great and I really enjoyed the veggie pasta and thought it had loads of flavour. Took it back to the office and it was nice and hot. The second and third times I got the same pasta, but when I came to eat it at the office about 2 mins later, it was nearly stone cold! It's a shame because I really enjoyed the pasta the first time I went, but not sure I'd get food from here again now that I have had two bad experiences..!
