Giovanni Rana in Camden

Super tasty product. We had tastings in our supermarket yesterday and today. Jörg Kremmling carried out the tasting. He presented the products with a lot of passion and successfully sold them to the guests.

La pasta y el pescado frito eran excelentes. El servicio era amable. Pudimos sentarnos afuera. Una comida muy agradable, salvo el precio de vino, que era un poco elevado incluso para una ubicación en el centro de Londres. Sin duda lo recomiendo, ya que está situado en una zona tranquila peatonal, que sin duda es muy concurrida durante el día en medio de la oficina de acompañamiento.

A group of 20 of us went there for our colleague's leaving lunch. We pre-ordered in advance to avoid any issues with a big group. Although the company of colleagues was great, the food was in most cases more than disappointing as well as was the service.

Abbiamo soggiornato a Londra per una settimana e abbiamo pranzato qui per tre giorni.

I visited Giovanni Rana last week for an important business lunch.

Such a lovely place to visit, I have been there a couple of time with my boyfriend and I have never been disappointed Great food paired with a lovely a warm staff My favorite dish is Duetto tiramusu pistachio and coffee

I love eating in this place far from the crowd of the city I feel like at home the staff is attentive and always kind and food is great especially the pesto tortelli I truly recommend it

He estado en este restaurante antes de vino y estaba muy bien. Hoy era totalmente diferente. Tuvimos que esperar en la puerta mientras el maître facetimed su novio. Luego nos llevó a una mesa y a la izquierda por 11 minutos antes de que se le pidió a la orden cualquier cosa. El lugar no estaba ocupado. Después pedimos y nos tomó 52 minutos para nuestro principal cursos venideros. No son baratos en promedio 16 libras cada uno. El camarero no se disculpó y no venga y ofrecer cualquier tipo de pimienta negra o parmesano. Entonces nos ignoraron porque me quejé por el tiempo que se tomó para traer la comida. Somos una empresa de 600 personas y no recomendaría ninguno de ellos para venir a este lugar.

Very good pasta in its varied forms. Gelato good as well. Very pricey, however, and the service was second rate.

Lovely small plates and the rest of the menu was varied. Great wines and good value. Would return.

No estoy seguro de si este lugar cogí en un mal día, pero no lo recomiendo si estás remotamente empujado por el tiempo.

Llamé para un café esta mañana, y quedé muy impresionado. El extra shot que pedí fue allí y una gran pantalla blanca, estaba entregado. Yo estaba tan impresionado que tomó mi colleauges allí 2 horas más tarde y repetir mi pedido. Sé la diferencia cuando se agregó un disparo, pero esta vez era diferente a un asesoramiento letrado prepago sostienen que él había añadido. No sé qué ha sucedido con 'El cliente siempre tiene la razón" pero este lugar óperas distintas reglas. Sólo puedo poner este a personas que trabajan en lugares como este precio pin y no carreras en hospitalidad, que para mí es una pena. poco probable ir de nuevo después de esta experiencia.

Un almuerzo ligero con excelente pasta simplemente presentado en mi ravioles sabores. Yo tenía una pasta de queso de cabra con remolachas, únicamente vestido con una sutil además de romero y nueces añadido una gran oferta para el plato. El servicio estaba bien. El personal era haciendo un buen trabajo a pesar de estar un poco alargado. Posiblemente toque caro, pero estamos en una zona central de negocios. Dispuestos a recomendar sobre la base de esta visita. . .

We had the most amazing ravioli and the service was exceptional! Don't miss this place!

My second was OK not good as I was expecting. Tagliatelle with prawns couldn't fell the prawns flavour.

It's in a lovely area near Gt Portland St/Albany St. and the restaurant is well presented and clean.The lunch was delicious but really overpriced for what it is, 'avocado' in the mix, was served as extremely small very thin slices about one inch long. Teapot arrived with no lid and different members of staff said they were broken, or in the wash. Not good enough. Having had a good b/fast there before, I was happy to return,may give it a miss next time.

I have eaten at Giovanni Rana on Triton Street several times both in small and large groups. I am impressed by the quality of the food (especially the pasta and charcuterie board), the choice of wines, and the impeccable service. The manager has been very attentive and made sure we had a fabulous dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I visited this restaurant on my hotel recommendation and it was a real pleasure to find a genuine, welcoming, neighbourhood-style Italian restaurant The highlight was the aperitivo, I tried a beer made with spelt paired with tortellini fried (such a creative and tasty way to eat pasta) and it was good and the service was very friendly.

Food was very good and plentiful portions. Service was great to start with and we were never rushed but clearing the main course was started before one of the diners had finished which was unexpected. Other than that, couldn't really fault anything at all.

I visited again in June as I have several times before and I have never been disappointed. Excellent menu that reflects a family style business while maintaining charm and elegance.Always a warm welcome and efficient friendly staff.I Highly recommend it.

This is a potentially good restaurant with interesting pasta menu which was tasty and well presented but they must sort out their ridiculously overpriced wine list. In most other respects, I liked it. It was a bit too quiet when we visited on a Thursday evening (pre-theatre) but perhaps this is a result of their overpriced drinks list.

Tucked away near Great Portland tube station. Really nice food served by charming staff. A good wine list and knowledgeable staff to guide you.

I was having a Skype working meeting sitting on the bar side of the restaurant. I usually love sitting on that side of this restaurant for my meetings or extra work to do.At some point a lady that must to be a manager or the owner in there started yelling in Italian with one of the staff and kept going on with that loud shouting at him.Even the person on the other side of my meeting heard her through my microphone.I tried to get the attention from the bar guy to pay my bill and he looked still shocked from what happened that he didn't even hear me calling him.

Today I went to the restaurant with 2 colleagues for a business lunch,We had to wait a very long time to be served. Restaurant seamed very understaffed compared to the amount of people having lunch. Only 2 waiters for around 100 customers. We got our drinks After 20 minutes we ordered and the food came straight after.I have to say that the yellow and green tagiatelli in saffron sauce I had was extremely good and the prawns tasted really fresh and the tiramisu was to die for.I got a bit shocked when I saw the bill, the restaurant is a bit expensive but I guess we paid for the quality of what we ate.

On the surface, this is a nice place conveniently located close to Great Portland St. The drinks and service are acceptable, but the breakfasts have a lot to be desired. Over the course of the last 2-3 months, I have visited on a couple of occasions and been equally disappointed on both. Most recently, i ordered the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs - what a mistake. Lukewarm, overcooked eggs sat upon a damp piece of semi-toasted brioche. The salmon was lacking in flavour and the portion was very small. The fact the dish was served in a small brass frying pan did nothing to improve the experience. A real shame for what could be a nice cafe near lots of my other local meeting spots.

Cosy, modern restaurant. Service was good and friendly. A lot of pasta variations, alternatives. Food was good and we didn't have to wait for the food.

Buona cucina, buonissima birra, servizio buono, tavoli esterni comodi e riparati, vicinanza con l'Hotel Melia,

This is an attractive modern restaurant but it needs work. The service was smiley but slow even though the place was almost empty. It took a very long time to get the starters to our table then (cardinal sin) our entrees arrived at the exact same time. This is very inattentive management. The fish and chips ravioli starter was excellent. But, our pastas though large in portion were not hot enough. (Were they held in the kitchen waiting for the starter to be ready?) A "large" glass of wine cost an outrageous £12. It was very ordinary and though the glass was large the pour was very stingy. I've had better meals at ASK and Prezzo for half the price.

Very good restaurant in a nice setting with excellent authentic food

Hace been in Rana many times. They are all very nice and when you are in a hurry, they can accommodate and be quick also! 😊 Lovely place

Restaurante muito bonito!!Ficam abertos direto desde o almoço até o jantar.Atendimento excelente!Comidas italianas deliciosas!Preço justo.Recomendo muito a sobremesa Tiramissu deles.

Pertenece a la empresa de pasta Rana. El servicio era estupendo. Y algunos platos estaban muy buenos (pasta corta con bolognesa y rellena de burrata con aceitunas y tomate seco), otros no tanto (pasta rellena de pecorino con tomate, piñones y albahaca). Le falta algo para ser bueno de verdad. Precio medio para Londres.

Only eaten here once, but the ribbon pasta with saffron prawns was really lovely and very filling.If you're with friends and want to hear them what they have to say, then this restaurant is quite noisy - but if you want a lively place and don't mind hustle and bustle, then its a great venue.Don't sit near the main door - or you'll get an icy blast every time it opens.

Siamo stati al "Giovanni Rana" vicino a Regent's Park la sera prima della Maratona di Londra. Pasta buona e ben cotta. Per chi non volesse separarsi dalla cucina italiana.....

Finding ourselves in the Euston area and wanting a bite to eat, after a quick bit of research,I happened across Giovanni Rana. Don't they sell pasta in supermarkets?? It seems they are one and the same; I had no idea they had restaurants too. We ventured in to the empty restaurant - it was though late afternoon. A nice menu with a good selection of dishes materialised - not your typical Pizza and Pasta fayre, some unusual things. We discounted having any wine, not at those prices......! I ordered the Gnocchi with bacon and blue cheese and my better half had a pasta dish with spicy beef. The dishes turned up in hot metal bowls and stayed piping hot; very nice they were too, though hardly exceptional. Clean, modern surroundings and decor, a pleasing place to have a meal.Omg

Best place for Italian ravioli! Every time I'm in London I come here!

Came by this restrurant during a business stay. We took the dinner outside. For starters we had a tapas which was soo tasty. For the main dish I had duckravioli. Woo it was good. So if you are in this area in London, you must try Giovanni Rana

Very good pasta like always! Tried the ravioli carbonara - AMAZING taste

Very fresh atmosphere, delicious pasta (also whole grain) kind staff. I am a kinda nightmare of waiters, since I am a vegetarian and my gore rises at mushroom ... but they handled any of my request on changing some ingredients without any problem.And yes, it's a London-like pricey place, but we didn't feel robbed. We have been there twice - 1 was a date, 1 was an organized business dinner for 50 people -, each time leaving satisfied.

Food was average and the same you get out of a packet in Italy. The staff were friendly and service quick but the dishes were too expensive for the quality.

Best Italian place in London! Ravioli and Cappelletti excellent!

Really good Italian food, service was good and everything on the menu looked good. Portion was a little small, but taste was great.

Il locale è carino e l'atmosfera rilassante, l'ideale dopo i chilometri macinati per visitare Londra. Ho mangiato pappardelle al ragù d'anatra, piatto ottimo e abbondante. Eravamo in 16, quasi tutti soddisfatti di quello che abbiamo mangiato, bambini inclusi.I prezzi nella media di un buon ristorante londinese.

We had a table booked for a lunch time baby shower, it was going to be a quick lunch. The wine both red & white was ridiculously expensive, the food very un-inspiring and again for lunch just far too expensive. Pricing themselves out of the market. Will definitely not be returning !

We went for a work colleague's birthday lunch, eleven of us, nice table in our own area and was quiet enough to talk easily. When food came two of the lasagnes were stone cold in the middle and more surprisingly two of the ravioli were also cold in the middle, seems hard to manage to undercook ravioli. Have no idea if this was actually fresh pasta but the impression is they were reheating food here. Dishes were taken away and eventually replaced with warm versions but meal was consequently not that great with four of us watching the others eat until their food arrived. Was surprised no offer was made in recognition of the undercooked meals. We complained to the waiter who removed the service charge but said he could do no more. We then complained to the manageress who was unhelpful, initially refused to reduce the bill because 'we had had the food we'd ordered', she couldn't see a problem, very reluctantly reduced bill by 10%. Eleven of us left with poor impression, each of us no doubt telling friends and family about our experience here, they could have done a lot better. The serving staff were fine and did what they could, the manageress's attitude was very poor in my view.

The Cappelletti are always the best! This is a unique place to eat ravioli and pasta and not only!

We ate early evening and the kids really enjoyed it. Great pasta and nice atmosphere!

Great for fresh hand made pasta.Modern place where it's easy to have a business meal and drink.I'd recommend getting a drink as they give you free snacks usually.

Dined here with a work colleague one lunchtime. I selected the chicken salad that came with kale, artichokes and spinach. It was very enjoyable. Service was friendly, quick and efficient. I would eat there again.

We had a nice quiet table, there was plenty of food and good drinks. The service was ok, a bit slow but maybe the waiter was new. Overall a great experience!

I went to this place many time and they've never let me down! Great food, good service and a relaxing atmosphere.

Siamo stati invitati in questo ristorante da amici che vivono a Londra, e devo dire che ci siamo trovati molto bene, servizio attento e veloce, piatti italiani tradizionali.. da provare

The food is very good but: the restaurant is very loud, the service can be a bit unfocused at times, and it tends to be a tad expensive. Other than that, high quality, undisputably authentic Italian food.

The food was decent but the service is at best terrible!

Lunch here today with a friend - quick and efficient service. Food was excellent (my fired had the duck ragu and I had the lamb) great portion sizes.

This restaurant is near my work and had been a couple times for lunch in recent years with colleagues/suppliers and always had a nice meal. This time went in the evening with some friends and the menu was v different, only really offering pasta dishes and a couple meat options. No garlic bread as option to start (to share), the bread basket wasn't that great as alternative and no lasagne or anything like that on menu. Service was mixed and restaurant quite empty so not a great atmosphere. Also (as a non drinker) not much on offer in way of soft drinks, had previously had mocktails there but no longer on menu. Not sure if its new ownership but menu and service definitely not as good as on my previous visits so not sure i'd go back.

Disappointed. Service below par, starters/bread and olives didn't arrive so had to remind when mains arrived. Then no side salad came despite being ordered. Food itself was a little cold and compared to other Italian's we have tried this was below standard - a shame given positive reviews seen.

Good place for a business meal. Ok price and tasty. Staff very friendly and attentive.

Ordered bread for starter to share. After 20 minutes had to chase it up as hadn't received it (never did receive the olives!). Main courses took another half an hour or more to arrive - had to chase for these too! - and these were barely warm (didn't say anything as we didn't have time to wait any longer!). There was a time when you could be in and out in your lunch hour, but that is no longer the case.

Have been here a few times and the pasta is as good as always. Service always varies. Wine has always been a bit expensive, but now its increased to a minimum of £12 for a 175ml glass of red!!

Really good, excellent pasta and service.

I've been here countless times for lunch, I haven't managed to find a dish here which disappointed, it's fairly straight forward Italian classics, but delicious all the same. Staff are always friendly and helpful.

Excellent food, friendly staff and clean restaurant. I went here for lunch with colleagues, the food came out reasonable quick hence this is a good place to have lunch during office lunch break.

We used to be regulars there, but after the management change a year ago, this placed got trashed.... Poorly trained staff, breakfast waiting for 45 minutes (today we just gave up waiting and left), breaks in the supply (no salmon, no avocado, no orange juice - all due to a party two(!) days ago). We have mentioned our concerns a few weeks ago to the new owner, who apologised and offered coffee on the house. But nothing has really been done to improve the real problems. We will not be going there anymore, despite of being located in the same building.

We love Giovanni Rana! We work nearby the restaurant and go there at least once a week for lunch.Food is very tasty, with real Italian flavour. Staff is super friendly, polite and efficient! If you are in a hurry, it's the best place to have a full meal, as they can bring your order on 5 min if you ask them to be quick!I wouldn't say is the best Italian food I've ever had, but you get what you pay for, for sure.I would definitely recommend for lunch, if you are at work or want to catch-up with some friends.Tip: they have a really nice grains salad, if you're looking after a light lunch.

So basically, after many times i visited this place i have to say i am really disappointed with the management, specially with the hairless man. I have been recommending this place for coffees and meals but never again. Certainly, management should know that many people speak their language and maybe they should shut their mouth before saying anything and this should be also taught to the rest of the staff. Sei stato propio un cretino!

Great Service and great food. the pasta is great however my best discovery was the Tiramisu.This place has the best Tiramisu I have ever had. A must try.

Great for lunch meetings, simple but delicious menu and friendly service

Delicious pasta. Waiters gave us lots of time to chat. I would definitely come again and recommend the food to others

looked nice to sit outside so booked it but would not come back unless see some positive change. prices and menu look as are driven by profit and generally on the high range. few examples - spelt salad was a pack of spelt with few vegetables interspersed , where asparagus presence was rare and stalks rather than tops. no sign of Mediterranean herbs and flavours or good decent tasty oil. salt though was abundant ..again cheap way of flavouring. - prices for pasta dishes (my souther Italian partner had the cheaper 8 lemon ravioli for 12.5pounds,) are not far off those at Michelin starred Locanda Locatelli, which is a shame given huge difference and style in dining. -no sign of bread baskets or similar. if you cater to those type of diners loving fine Italian cuisine and high price range that is a must. conveyed some of this to the manager who appreciated to know. although I feel that price and menu approach might be dictated from above to turn profit quickly ..

Excellent experience. Convenient location. Our first meal in London scored very high. Made us feel that we're on the right foot.

I never write reviews but I am compelled to write one on Giovanni Rana, London having enjoyed a really memorable evening last night for 9 people. I made the reservation by dropping in..... the General Manager could not have been more helpful in facilitating the booking for a special,celebration with family from many countries with 4 generations from age 95 to 8...2 of whom had food allergies which were noted in advance ...on arrival last night the food allergies were fully recognised with specific menu recommendations...this is rare with many restaurants who often forget!The General Manager ,the chef and whole,team were so unbelievably attentive to all our needs and the food was absolutely superb ....everyone was also kind and amazingly helpful to us all and we really felt like you were treating us as family. We have all eaten all over the world and I genuinely think this was one of nicest meals that we ,as a family have enjoyed.We will really enjoy coming back for future gatherings as well as individually and will certainly recoomend to all our extended family and friendsDon Ray

Ottimo per ritrovare subito i sapori italiani. Pasta fresca preparata dai cuochi del ristorante con la tradizionale ricetta di Giovanni Rana. Abbiamo gustato delle pappardella ai funghi e dei ravioloni ai funghi porcini. Veramente squisito. Di certo un po piu caro rispetto alla catena di Giovanni Rana che si trova in Italia ma considerando il cambio di moneta non favorevole siamo sulle 8/10 eu in piu ma ne vale la pena per gustare la buona pasta. Molto cari i vini... meglio la birra in questi posti. Da provare assolutamente per chi ha nostalgia della cucina di casa italiana

Tha tagliatelle with prawn sauce was nicely done, the pacheri with sausage was appropriately spicy - albeit the sausage was scarce...too bad the service and attitude of the staff marred the experience. Service was extremely slow, though the restaurant was empty. The waiter completely forgot the appetizer, and when reminded, brought it out with the pasta. The bill was incorrect the first time, the second and the third time we sent it back, containing items we did not order and, to add insult to injury, a service charge! The staff did not appear apologetic in any way. We left dissatisfied, despite the nice food.

I booked it as it was very close to the Melia White House Hotel and I needed to plan something nearby for a bunch of people, I was a bis skeptical about this one but i had a go. And surprisingly I loved it. It's really big, modern, everything is home made and you can taste it. Really tasty, lots of flavours, comfortable, lot's of space, not noisy at all, and the service is great, informal...Pricewise is also good. Can't expect cheaper for what they offer, but it's affordable, which is good.Definitely in my mind for future events.

The food is great, I've been a few times and have the green and yellow pasta with prawns. I prefer mine slightly over and they're always more than happy to do it. The portions are incredibly generous. The balsamic glaze is amazing and I ask for that to go with my bread and oil. The staff are lovely and authentic and are passionate about Italy and food. My biggest gripe is it'd very very slow, so as long as you keep on top of them and prompt ordering and asking for the bill you'll be fine. If you have the time the food is well worth the wait.

Abbiamo scoperto questo locale quasi per caso, perché vicino al nostro hotel. Siamo entrati più che altro per curiosità ma era talmente carino ed il manager Emilio così simpatico, che ci siamo fermati volentieri per un ottimo aperitivo accompagnato dalle prelibatezze firmate Giovanni Rana. L'eccellenza italiana nel mondo, bravissimi !

I had a very nice experience, the place is very beautiful and big with a nice view on the kitchen, of course I ate the pasta and was really delicious.I will recommend to anyone especially if you love fresh pasta

I was meeting a client here and I was delighted with the entire experience. The welcome was friendly and fairly informal, the service was good and the meal splendid. I had the tagliatelle with prawns in saffron sauce. Really very good. My client had the special and was pleased with it. All-round very good.

Magnifica Pasta fresca italiana a un precio razonable en el centro de negocios junto a la central del banco de Santander en Londres. Muy atento el camarero, jarra de agua del grifo con hielo, se agradece por la extendida voracidad recaudatoria del agua embotellada.

Junk, overpriced fare, bad service and no idea of what vegetarian food is- never again will I return to this place!

This is right next to the office, so it can be busy at lunchtime, but I booked for an evening and it was very quiet for a Wednesday evening get together. Food is always good quality as the pasta is handmade. Some dishes can leave you wanting more in quantity, but can recommend the spicy sausage pasta for both quality and quantity. Loved watching people having a pasta 'party' ie. making their own, under instruction, and then accompanied by a glass of prosecco! But couldn't see where/how to book this...?

If you're looking for traditional italian pasta, this is the place to go. Good atmosphere and service!! Also, a good place to go for an aperitif during the week.

We have dinner here on a Saturday night before the London Marathon. We wanted somewhere close and was within walking distance from the hotel. We also wanted pasta, and this place came up. We arrived to be the second guests, it was early so we thought it would full up. It didn't. The restaurant is well furnished, modern and trendy looking, but with only 3 tables there among 40 it felt very awkward. The waiter was absent, and we could barely get his attention everytime we needed anything. It seems family owned, and they sat at the bar talking (including our waiter) so we were neglected.However the food was good. My mom had a ravioli with pear, gorgonzola and parma ham which was delicious. I had a lentil and butternut salad which was also very good.Perhaps this place relies on weekday diners from the offices that surround it, but if you are looking to go over the weekend I would not recommend it.

The menu do not include any caveats regarding service charges however they felt more obliged to apply it. Fortunately they agreed to refund the 'Optional. Service charge' however should have mentioned this beforehand as very cheeky!! Sorry guys only 3 stars..

Ate here today and was pretty underwhelmed by my food. I ordered a frito misto and a side salad. The salad was fine. The frito misto however was not. It was cold. Frito misto should be super fresh and thus piping hot. It was not. It was also 90% squid so not so misto. I did mention this several times when asked if everything was Ok but was simply asked why I hadn't said earlier. Unfortunately I didn't have time as we were in a rush as we had tickets for the theatre next door. Up to that point the service though friendly had been a little confused so I didn't feel it was worth risking missing the start of my play to highlight this mid meal. Maybe I just got an off dish but I think serving cold food isn't great.

Absolutely amazing place, good staff, good food...Bellissima esperienza di buona cucina italiana da fare se vi trovate in London, buona la pasta fresca!

This restaurant clearly has lost it. Seriously overpriced, poor service and very average quality of food. With the restaurant being integrated into our office block and probably soaring rents over recent years, Giovani Rana has obviously decided to offset these rising costs by increasing menu prices, smaller portions, and lower quality ingredients.Had lunch today with a party of 11 and not only was the food I had poor (warm squash salad) it was overpriced at £14.50 for what was a tiny portion more befitting a starter. My colleagues chicken salad was virtually untouched, the chicken was off, had a weird odeur and clearly of a poor quality supplier. Another colleagues calamari salad first arrived with no calamari inside and then when it eventually arrived, the calamari was not good.Over the last 12 months the standards have very visibly and gone down in this restaurant. Will not be coming back again.

Need to point out what a nice overall experience I had. The food and the welcoming warmth of personnel made it a special evening. Thank you guys.

Visited mid week as part of a large party (20+ people)The table set up wasn't the best set up for socialising, 3 very large circular tables pushed together so it was a bit of an odd set up but plenty of space so no real issues.The food was very nice, I always try and go for seafood if possible and I wasn't let down here by either my cuttlefish starter or the main of mixed seafood pasta.The service was by no means impolite or terrible, it just seemed a bit shambolic and unorganised as if they weren't used to dealing with large parties.When the orders came out the waiting staff had no recollection of who had ordered what and with 20+ people to serve both a starter and a main as you can imagine this meant there was a lot of confusion and a couple of folks actually started eating the wrong order (partly customer error there of course but you expect a restaurant to cater for for these things).There also wasn't a particularly attentive attitude to ensuring drinks were topped up either.It certainly wasn't a bad evening, the food was very nice but with two or three similar type establishments in very close proximity that I've also been to, there wasn't enough to make me go back here again.

I went to Giovanni Rana a year ago for its opening night and I was looking forward to come back as I enjoyed it a lot.This time I've decided to invite a group of friends for an aperitivo night and it was simply a disaster.We've been charged £10 for entry with a drink and the plate to have food. Result: a spritz was full of ice and the actual drink was less than half glass; even the beer (Poretti) was a rip off as it didn't even arrive to the minimum line.We queued to have food for 40 minutes (!!!) - the queue was long and slow because there was a very small corner with food served. Once arrived we have a small plate with mixed things but I'm sorry to say that the quality was crap. Pizza pieces were basically piece of bread with no toppings; full of bread but nothing else. Dessert was panettone which was dry and nothing special and the overall cost for the restaurant was very very low. Too crowded.Unfortunately the restaurant lost a lot of customers as we won't come back again as we felt ripped off and the quality/quantity of food and drinks was not up to standards.

Modern surrounding and reasonable service but I thought it was expensive, which would have been fine if the pasta was great but it was fairly average. So all in all a bit disappointing.

Si estás por Triton square y quieres una comida rápida pero con pasta de calidad, este es un sitio razonable. Con un coste aprox de 15-20 libras por un plato de pasta, te dan muchas variedades de pasta casera con rellenos muy variados. Recomiendo los raviolis de ricotta con pez espada. Buena atención, ambiente muy business.

Table offered was needlessly cramped, when quiet couldn't we have a little more room?, overall service good, with a very good descriptions of the contents on the Charcuterie Board, main was fresh pasta, very nice, atmosphere and decor good, nice meal, but not wow'd.

Sono a londra da 15 giorni,ieri sono stato a mangiare da Giovanni Rana.Bellissimo ristorante ottimo staff e buona cucina. Ho assaggiato i ravioli swordfish una vera goduria x il palato. O proprio l'idea che tornerò sicuramente.

Visited with business colleagues (9). Pre-booked so they knew we were coming and in any event it is in a Triton Square so surrounded by offices. The service was truly appalling, the worst I've ever experienced. The waitress was rude from the start and clearly didn't want to be there. An Italian accent isn't going to make up for such a dreadful attitude. After three attempts we finally managed to get some drinks. We chose the boards of meat and cheese to start, they were unbelievably expensive for what they were. The main courses were average, my pheasant ravioli was fairly bland and nearly £19. Then it took another two attempts to get another drink. By the time the dessert menu came I'd lost the will to live and didn't bother. My colleague's red wine never arrived. Finally three attempts to get the bill was only made more frustrating by the broken card machine they brought over. All in all a dreadful experience.

Vado circa 3/4 volte l'anno in questo ristorante, quando capito in zoma per lavoro.L'ambiente e' pulito, il personale (italiano) molto gentile.Vado sempre per pranzi veloci con clienti e che quindi si basano per lo piu' in un antipasto in comune e poi un main course, per lo piu' di pasta.Quindi la recensione non e' proprio profondissima, e me ne scuso.La qualita' e' buona, nello specifico oggi eravamo in 3 e abbiamo preso:Tagliere misto (taglierone)1 pacchero pescatora1 pacchero nduja1 paglia e fieno1 bottiglia acqua1 espresso1 cappuccinoTotale incluso servizio 91 gbp.Siamo a londra e il posto e' ben tenuto ma onestamente mi sembra un po' caro.Considerato che non abbiamo bevuto vino.Se non fosse per questo dettaglio avrei dato 4 punti invece di 3.

Η περιοχή σε προδιαθέτει για κάτι σχετικά ακριβό και το Giovanni Rana δεν είναι εξαίρεση. Ανάμεσα σε ψηλά κτήρια γραφείων και σε μια περιοχή που θεωρείται περισσότερο επαγγελματική παρά οικιστική πήγαμε χωρίς κράτηση καθώς ήταν ότι πιο κοντινό βρισκόταν κοντά στο ξενοδοχείο μας το Melia White House στο οποίο φθάσαμε αργά. Το εστιατόριο ήταν πολύ ζωντανό γεμάτο νεαρόκοσμο που περισσότερο έπινε από έτρωγε κατά την άποψη μου αν κρίνω από το "κέφι". Παραμονές εορτών έτσι κι αλλιώς το εστιατόριο παρότι αρκετά μεγάλο ήταν γεμάτο. Παρόλα αυτά μας βρήκαν τραπέζι για 3 άτομα και μπορέσαμε και φάγαμε.Το φαγητό ευτυχώς ήταν κοντά στις ιταλικές γεύσεις και έτσι αποφύγαμε το γνωστό "κάτι που μοιάζει με ιταλικό" που συναντάς συχνά στην Αγγλία. Το προσωπικό που μας εξυπηρέτησε θα το έλεγα τυπικό και ψηλο-αδιάφορο. Για 3 Prosecco, 1 μπουκάλι Verdichio, 1 ορεκτικό Fritto Misto, μια πράσινη σαλάτα, 3 πιάτα pasta διαφορετικά και 2 espresso πληρώσαμε 116 λίρες.

Juste à côté de l'hôtel, la situation est idéale . Côté cuisine : plats copieux et excellents. Mais le must a été l'accueil et le service absolument incroyable. Nous étions à Londres pour l'anniversaire de notre mère et le personnel lui a apporté un dessert en chantant et cela gracieusement. Coup de cœur pour Claudio, qui nous a accueilli et s'est occupé de nous toute la soirée . Personnage haut en couleur !

Ужинал с друзьями. Обслуживают молодые ребята-итальянцы модельной внешности, но профессионально и приветливо. Еда приличная и вкусная - хорошие сырные равиоли, нормальная рыба с морепродуктами, даже изящно. Приличная винная карта. С десертом им не повезло - тирамису я делаю лучше. В винной карте в разделе whisky and brandy из бренди было только нечто никому не известное и весьма жёсткое на вкус, так что мои друзья остались недовольны своим алаверды. Кстати, шерри нет вовсе. Но это не главное - поели и посидели хорошо, потому и оценка высокая. Да: и метро рядом, целых 5 станций.
