Da Beppe in Camden

We had booked a table for 8 of us at 5.30 on a Friday evening after work. We arrived around 5.45 to find that all of the lights were off. We told them we had a booking and the member of staff told us they were closed.After some negotiation the lights were turned on and we were seated. A short while later the waiter came back and told us he had spoken to his manager and they were closed. We asked how long until they would open, would it be 1 hour, 2 hours? He said that he didn't know and it was up to his manager. He then suggested we leave and told us there is a similar restaurant down the road. Never before have I had a restaurant recommend we go to a competitor. This caused one of our party to cry, and he only stopped when we promised to buy him a balloon (he's not a child, he just really loves balloons).We walked back past Da Beppe (the same one that was closed) around 10 minutes later to find the staff member serving wine to a table. We were obviously confused so asked why the restaurant was now open when we were only just told it was closed. We were then invited back inside but fearing for our safety, we declined.We then went to Zizzi's by Goodge Street station. If you are looking for a restaurant that is open and serves authentic Italian food justa like mama used to make, I recommend you go there. 4.2 stars.

우연히 지나가다가 가게게 손님이 많아서 방문하게 된 가게인데 나름 성공한 초이스 같았어요 좋은 가격에 좋은 음식 가성비 좋은 식당입니다.디저트로 티라미슈 너무 살살 녹아요

This is one of those places where you can eat everyday, always something new and always full of flavours and taste. Not only the menu keeps adding new seasonal recipes but you can also talk to the chef and ask some special "off the menu".Must be one of the best places in London and more.

The restaurant as you would expect from Beppe, I have been following him for many years in different location and never felt disappointed. Not only good value for money but free entertainment from a real character ....
