The quality and quantity of the "delicacies" enjoyed were excellent. Fair price in proportion to how much eaten.

It a quant Italian restaurant with a great menu and everything we ordered was delicious. The spaghetti carbonara and lasagna were excellent. We found the staff to be were very friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this place if you want great Italian food. By the way, the Tiramisu is an amazing desert to share to top off your meal.

Delicious little local Italian, the service was extremely friendly and the food was wonderful - big portions, daily specials and all homemade! It had a great atmosphere too, we had a lovely spot right by the window where you could watch the world go by. Would definitely recommend as a lovely unfussy spot to grab a satisfying meal.

Full of volume. One main menu is enough for two people, so even if you order a starter, I think it would be better to have something light like a salad. The taste is also very satisfying! In particular, this seafood tomato pasta (I forgot the name, but it was on the bottom right of the pasta menu) is full of seafood extract and is the best. The only downside is that the tables next to you are so close that you can hear conversations, so I think it's best used with people close to you.

Our hotel in London recommended this restaurant. My husband and I am delighted they did! The restaurant is small and intimate. The decor is comfortable. The restaurant staff are attentive without being overbearing. The food is incredible. We started with the shrimp appetizer. It included toasts and at least 6 shrimp which have been sautéed in garlic/butter broth with fresh chiles. Very tender and flavorful. I highly recommend. My husband had the lobster ravioli with a shrimp/tomato cream sauce. Clean, fresh, not fishy and absolutely delicious. I had the spicy homemade pasta with shrimp and tomatoes and a bit of a kick from fresh chiles. Unexpectedly, I ate almost the entire dish myself. Usually pasta is overly filling. This dish was light and fresh and the shrimp were tender and perfectly prepared. For dessert I had the tiramisu (a standard tiramisu) and my husband had a semi-frozen dessert with almond and chocolate. He enjoyed it & of the 2 desserts his won as most unique and memorable. The wine by the glass was good, the cocktails were also nice. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Nice venue and food is fine good portions. What spoilt the evening was being informed we had to vacate our table in 5 minutes(we had been sat for 55 minutes at that point). This was announced at the same time as offering dessert menus! I asked for the bill and was told we had time to “share a tiramisu”! I should have refused to pay the service charge but didn’t want a scene in front of my daughter who I was treating to rare dinner out. Such a shame. That greed will eat at your soul.

We book a table for 9 persons here for the first time, everyone enjoyed their food, lovely service from the staffs and greeted goodnight to the lovely chefs (yes, they are an open kitchen), I would just say they are little pricey than the other Italian restaurants because they are authentic and the one and only Da Paolo in London, so it was worth it if you are looking for a classy Italian vibe but not spending too much £££ with the family and friends

Primi piatti arrived at the same time as secondi piatti and was cold There is almost no space between the tables, if you want to get up you have to have someone come and pull the table, it is very narrow. The chicken was tender and delicious. The black truffle we chose from the special menu was delicious but cold. They brought the dessert menu as soon as we finished our meal and brought us the bill 30 seconds after we said we would not order dessert. When we said that we did not want an account, they stated that they misunderstood, this did not feel sincere. The waiters were attentive and friendly.

A really lovely restaurant. We found it by accident, although I’ve lived in London for almost all of my fairly long life. We hadn’t got a reservation but they found us a really nice table by the window. The restaurant soon filled up with couples and parties of people. A great ant on a Saturday lunchtime. Incredibly friendly with excellent and attentive service from our lovely waiter and waitress. The food is great. I had a proper tagliatelle with ragu. Unlike most ragus, that are really bolognaise full of tomato, this was a proper meat sauce. The best I’ve had since we were in Sienna some years ago. Good house wine as well. A real find and on our list for more visits.

Unfortunately I could not enjoy the food due to the poor service of the waitress, we were the first to arrive and the last to be served the food, but this is not as important as the bad attitude, when I wanted to ask what the waitress had happened . with a very bad attitude and without letting me finish talking, he gave a bad excuse and then turned around without letting me finish talking, I think that the client is always right and no matter how tired you are, you always have to have a good attitude, I couldn't finally have the name of the waitress because she didn't finish serving us, but this was on 11/24/2024 at 8:00 pm at a table down the stairs

Be aware if you’re fairly tall as the restaurant is small and you’ll be told off for not moving your chair far in enough to make more space for diners at the tables behind you (that never showed by the way) when you do you’ll feel uncomfortable and cramped. Food was ok, had the steak which was ok but the vegetables and potatoes that go with it were so bland and dry that they were obviously an afterthought, steak could have done with some sauce aswell like a bernaise or peppercorn but at that point i was too scared to ask incase i was told off again for not moving my chair far enough in

We visited Da Paolo for dinner after it was recommended by a member of staff at our hotel. We were not disappointed. It is a little hidden away so I don’t think we would have found it on our own but what a find. The staff are great, very friendly and helpful but the food was amazing. Very generous portions, so much so that we had no room for dessert. The quality of the food and service is faultless. I would highly recommend but would advise booking in advance as it is very popular.

I came with a friend. It was a little chilly so we sat inside. I had braesola for starter. It was a huge portion, almost a meal in itself. I followed this with chicken escalope with spaghetti and then the chef made zabaglione for 2 of us. With a bottle of wine the meal came to about £67 each including service. The quality of the food is excellent, the service attentive and the surroundings are very pleasant. The only problem is that the restaurant is very cramped and if you sit in the aisle your chair will be bashed whenever someone walks passed which is annoying.

Loved this place and we have been regulars in there. But our last visit was something else. We have been always touched by the special service and the food is indeed amazing. Shame the owner seems to have no good manners at all. We have been having our usual table outside and we have been always ‘allowed’ to smoke e-cigarettes but this time we got a dry NO and when I asked why it is not allowed anymore, the owner just said ‘Because I said so’. Terrible attitude! Even though there were people around us with their vapes out. Same diners as us. We had to leave because to be honest i was shocked by the answer and couldn’t see myself enjoying it anymore. Such a shame we won’t be coming back there, and I would def not recommend it to any of my friends. When you are coming to dine, you are also looking for the whole experience and politeness is probably the minimum I would even ask for.

The food is very good but, logically, it is not cheap, for an Italian, about 35 pounds per person without asking for much. They speak Spanish. The pasta and desserts are delicious. I recommend Linguini, spaghetti, lasagna and tiramisu. They have tables outside because it is in a pedestrian zone.

This is possibly my favourite restaurant in London. It has everything you want from a great Italian restaurant - authentic recipes, fresh ingredients, good wine, all lovingly presented in a romantic setting. The servers are very friendly and greet my wife and I when we arrive as we've been coming here now for many years. Da Paolo is usually our go-to for birthdays and anniversaries, and I've recommended it to so many people that they're probably sick of me mentioning it. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Cosy but cramped Italian restaurant. Food traditional and plentiful. For example, a side order of a 'tomato and onion salad' could easily feed four diners. Service from a young manager and an Honduran waitress excellent and informal. But restaurant should remove a couple of tables. Currently, they are only a few inches apart, so that stranger next to u feels a part of your table. In an unattractive passageway, competing for outside space with other outlets infront and to the side. Still, would return, if I was in the area.

Cosy restaurant with excellent service - provided by an attentive, young manager and an Honduran waitress. Tables very closely packed together, and traditional food served in generous portions. Not really in an attractive position...on a narrow passageway - sandwich bar-type place opposite or to the side with its own chairs and tables competing for space; all arranged too closely together. Would return if in the area.

This was hands down one of the 3 top Italian Meals I have had anywhere in the world. And to find it in London England around the corner form our Hotel in SoHo is In a word amazing. We were running a few minutes late and I called up Mario who was so kind and out he dour reservations for this intimate family styled restaurant. When we arrived it was if we were old fiends with the entire staff going out of their way ti greet and help us. We ordered three course that we split tarting with caprese salad that was good but a sleeper compared to the tastes that were to follow. The real excitement was in the second and third courses, the Hand made ravioli with a cream Truffle sauce was breathtaking it literally permeated the taste buds with the taste of the Truffles. Generous portions and amazing district flavor made this a winner. We followed this up with a Veal Saltimbocca which was so intensely flavored it was unbelievable. I Woudl not have thought such flavor could come from his dish, but as I sit here today I’m wishing we lived in London so we could visit this fine restaurant regularly. To say this is highly recommended is an understatement. If you truly love Italian food are in London make a point of getting a reservation at this restaurant you will not be disappointed and like us will likely wish you had come earlier.

Came to this place due to the amazing reviews and had such a horrible service experience, I came alone and was given such trouble for a table. I was initially told nothing was available when in fact there were plenty of tables, I honestly thought they were joking with me at first and after asking for an explanation they seated me out of pity, wish I left because it was very unsettling to feel so unwelcomed. Regardless of good food or you do not treat people as such therefore I do not recommend this place!

Da Paolo's is always a joy. Romantic location, fine food, relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff. A must-try if you are new to central London, and just want to eat well, in lovely surroundings.

What a nasty experience. We booked the Teppanyaki restaurant at The Colony Club weeks in advance for our anniversary. It was meant to be a special night. My partner made the booking through OpenTable, and I was sent a separate email to confirm attendance. I accepted the invite. I read the policy. Nowhere in that email was I told that I would need a physical ID. If it was, I would have brought it. I almost always do. But this was a special occasion. I carried a small purse and was intentional about what I brought. On the night, traffic was bad due to road closures. We spent nearly an hour trying to get there and attempted to call the restaurant multiple times. Their phone didn’t even connect. No ring, no message, just dead. We finally got through via live chat and explained we were delayed. About ten minutes before arrival, we were told we would need a physical ID to enter. My partner had his. I had a digital copy of my passport, but they refused to accept it. What followed was the most humiliating and unpleasant encounter I’ve ever had at a supposed luxury venue. We were met at the door by a bouncer, a Black man, whose attitude and tone were immediately dismissive. He didn’t care about what we had to say. We explained everything calmly. We were polite. We weren’t causing a scene. But he looked at us like we were nobodies and spoke to us as though we didn’t deserve to be there. He didn’t try to help. He didn’t care that we had travelled nearly an hour and made a reservation. He just shut us down cold. We asked to speak to someone else. He said no. His exact response was, “You’re not going in.” And that was that. Eventually, someone named Diego came out. For the first time, I felt heard. He explained the situation clearly, calmly, and with respect. He told us about the ID policy and why the venue requires it. At least he had the decency to treat us like human beings. My heart genuinely felt lighter speaking to him. But by then, it was too late. We were still denied entry. We asked for a refund. Refused. We asked to reschedule. Refused. We left hungry, embarrassed, and completely disappointed. A waste of time, effort, and money. This isn’t just about being denied entry. It’s about how we were spoken to. How we were dismissed. How there was no care, no warmth, and no accountability. The Colony Club needs to review the way their security staff treat people!! You cannot claim to be a luxury establishment and have staff who lack basic emotional intelligence and people skills.

Amazing venue with great food and incredible staff. Restaurant opens onto canal. Some small tables outside for drinks (may serve food) whilst waiting for a table.
