Very bad service. Besides the barman, who was polite and friendly, the manager and the waiters ignored us and were rude. Unless you are willing to spend a lot, they treat you as of you were a burden, a waste of space or nonexistent. We were unable to order desserts because no one would take our orders.

We had the most beautiful evening here last night - thank you! It was my birthday and we received a warm and friendly welcome as first time visitors which was a great start to a wonderful evening. Our meals were absolutely incredible as was the wine. We will definitely be back. This restaurant is a true gem! A perfect evening - thank you 🤍

Avoid This Place – Rude Management, Overcharging, I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. The manager was extremely rude and disrespectful, making us feel uncomfortable the entire time. The atmosphere was tense, and it was not a pleasant place to dine. On top of that, they tried to overcharge us by adding items we didn’t order and sneaking in high service and cover charges. Worse, we were even given fake bills, which is completely unacceptable. If you do end up here, double-check your receipt carefully! The food itself was disappointing—not worth the hassle or the price. Overall, I strongly recommend avoiding this place.

Be careful about ordering the "specials". We had lunch for 4 and the main menu prices look reasonable for a Knightsbridge restaurant, The waiter told us about the specials but did not mention prices. I was very shocked to see my Dover Sole was twice as much as the other main courses we ordered. Put a damper on an otherwise good experience. They should produce a specials list, or chalkboard, with prices.

Especial agradecimiento a Antonio y Adriano por su amabilidad y paciencia en la parte de planificación de la misma.

We randomly walked into this restaurant, and it completely exceeded my expectations! We started with a shared seafood fettuccine, ordered sea bass as the main course, and paired it with a bottle of white wine. Everything was absolutely delicious, and we enjoyed every bite. We finished the meal with a classic tiramisu, which was simply perfect. The warm atmosphere, attentive service, and incredible food make this a place I’ll definitely visit again. I can’t wait to try more dishes from the menu. Highly recommend!

I’ve never encountered such appalling service as I did at this restaurant. First, they charge for using a tablecloth—yes, a tablecloth! To make matters worse, they brought out so-called "complimentary" bread and dip that we never asked for, only to later inform us, “Since you ate it, you have to pay for it.” How can they charge for something we didn’t request? They don’t even provide tap water, and instead, they charge £2 per cup of hot water—which they failed to mention in advance. When we realized this and raised our concerns, the manager’s response was shockingly rude and dismissive, showing no interest in customer service or basic courtesy. To top it all off, they add a service charge on top of the tablecloth fee, and despite the poor service, this charge is not optional. We asked for it to be removed, given the unsatisfactory experience, but they flat-out refused. The entire experience felt like a complete money-grab. The food itself was below average at best, certainly not worth the inflated prices, especially considering the dreadful service and extra charges. If you’re thinking about dining here, do yourself a favor and don’t. You’ll regret even considering it as an option for Italian dining near Knightsbridge. It’s not just the food that will disappoint—you’ll be frustrated by the poor service, hidden charges, and rude management. If you value your time, money, and peace of mind, stay far away from this place.

Nunca me había encontrado con un servicio tan terrible como lo hice en este restaurante. Primero, cobran por usar un mantel, ¡sí, un mantel! Para empeorar las cosas, sacaron el llamado pan y salsa "gratuitos" que nunca pedimos, solo para informarnos más tarde: "Como lo comiste, tienes que pagarlo". ¿Cómo pueden cobrar por algo que no solicitamos? Ni siquiera proporcionan agua del grifo, y en su lugar, cobran £ 2 por taza de agua caliente, que no mencionaron de antemano. Cuando nos dimos cuenta de esto y planteamos nuestras preocupaciones, la respuesta del gerente fue impactantemente grosera y desdeñosa, sin mostrar interés en el servicio al cliente o cortesía básica. Para colmo, añaden un cargo por servicio además de la tarifa del mantel, y a pesar del mal servicio, este cargo no es opcional. Pedimos que se retirara, dada la experiencia insatisfactoria, pero se negaron rotundamente. Toda la experiencia se sintió como un dinero completo - agarre. La comida en sí estaba por debajo de la media en el mejor de los casos, ciertamente no vale la pena los precios inflados, especialmente teniendo en cuenta el terrible servicio y los cargos adicionales. Si estás pensando en cenar aquí, hazte un favor y no lo hagas. Te arrepentirás incluso de considerarlo como una opción para comer italiano cerca de Knightsbridge. No es solo la comida lo que decepcionará, sino que se sentirá frustrado por el mal servicio, los cargos ocultos y la administración grosera. Si valoras tu tiempo, dinero y tranquilidad, mantente lejos de este lugar.

The service and the food was really good. The staff are friendly and always in good spirits with a bit of that Italian humour too!

The restaurant has a nice atmosphere but the tables are too close to each other. You have to squeeze into your chair. I asked for a minestrone soup since I wanted something light, instead I got an extremely spicy soup. I LOVE spicy but not in a a hearty vegetable soup. I mentioned it to the waiter and instead of trying it and offering an alternative he took the full plate of soup away and then brought the check. My friends risotto was tasty and good.

I stopped at this restaurant with some friends to have a quick dinner. Food is great,italian cuisine. Service way less. You can see trough the kitchen from a little window,chefs are eating while cooking,not tasting the food,which is not reasonable. We asked for the bill,but after 5 minuts the waiter was still having fun with some clients,so we asked again to another one. We received bread on the table and we got charged for it. They also added service charge without asking,we paid it without any problem. May not coming again if in the area

Really nice place. Food was good, however a couple of dishes we had were not authentic as we expected (the vitello tonnato had too much mayo and not enough tuna, the tiramisu was not a tiramisu). The specials were good however they were 2x more expensive than normal dishes and that was not communicated to us (and they were not worth the premium). The staff was very friendly.

This restaurant, hands down, has the WORST service ever. And to top it off they charge for Tablecloth?! Oh no, hold on, they bring some bread and dip as a complementary snack but then say “oh you ate it so you must pay for it” Umm no thanks. We didn’t even ASK you to bring the bread and dip. Do not even accidentally think of going there, you will hate yourself and hate the food that you had. You will absolutely REGRET even seeing it as an option for Italian restaurants near knightsbridge. You will REGRET even breathing the air around that restaurant. Please, if you value your mental peace, DO NOT go there.

The worst experience ever! It's weird how they open a business and be rude and hideous to customers. The minute we entered we were not welcomed. They charge you for the table cloth and handkerchief and call it "cover charges". The worst part was when I asked the manager to remove the service charge he said no he won't! I challenged him with the law and he said I don't care about the law pay and sue me! Of course I did not pay and if he insisted I would have called the police! Only one waiter was good to us and I thank him for his politeness in this unbelievably preposterous place! To put caveat on it, the manager told me when leaving that if I come again he won't give me a table! Who would ever think of coming "again" to such an awful place? Never go there, unless you like to torture yourself dealing with blitheting socially incompetent people who open a business in the UK and tell you they don't care about the country's law!

After a long day playing tourist, a warm, cozy respite was just what the doctor ordered. Welcoming and tending from the opening door, they nestled us along the far wall, served us soft bread and presented a list of tempting specials longer than their proper menu. I had the veal chop and my wife, the rigatoni. Delicious, friendly, and comfortable. We arrived around 9 on Sunday, when they seemed to be swimming in staff but not customers. With a French couple to our backs, a Russian party in the corner and some local Brits over there, the host charmed them all with his thick Italian timbre. It really was perfect for what we wanted and what we tend to like. The chop, by the way, was startlingly large but I just couldn't stop enjoying it. Our cabby picked us up right at the restaurant door and confirmed our gushing praise for the restaurant, echoing others. These little gems can capstone a trip like a sweet kiss good night. Buon appetito!

I felt very looked down on and degraded and treated completely differently to elder more affluent customers and wasn’t subtle about this bias treatment. Also had to pay “cover charge” for table cloths and menu in addition to service charge which are basic resources which are a must in any food restaurant.When asked to split the bill they laughed in our face and said they can’t do, which is definitely not true as they use a basic machine i see in corner shops.

worst restaurant experience i've ever had. we came as a fairly large group of young girls, looking for a nice place to eat, knowing we could afford a decent meal as a treat but we have never been more underwhelmed and disappointed by this place. firstly, the food was decent- nothing special and definitely not worth the price for what we received. keep in mind a normal sized diet coke was £5.50!!!!!!!! the broccoli side plate was mid and could consider cooking it myself as was just soggy, boiled broccoli in a brothy liquid. pasta dishes was undercooked and hard. we were mistreated compared to other, older and more wealthy customers. we all felt very bellittled and looked down upon by all the staff. when we went to pay, we were charged a normal service charge AS WELL as a 'cover charge'. when asked about the cover charge, the waiter told us that we were paying for menus and table cloths. finally, we asked to split the bill so we could all pay for our individual food items. the woman serving us laughed out loud and told us that wasn't possible, when we know the card machine is one that we have used at work before, specifically for typing in different amounts for a bill. absolutely outrageous customer service and staff treatment, mortified by how they think this it's okay and after reading other reviews im seeing that other people have had similar experiences. furthermore, the prices online were different to the ones on the menu. not happy by the customer service and the food wasn't even brilliant for the food. please save your money and your dignity by avoiding this place.

This is with out a doubt the worst experience I have ever had in a restaurant. The staff laughed in our faces, lied to us and were rude and arrogant. We were a younger group of girls and strongly felt that we had a very different experience to others around us. The prices online are not what was displayed on the menu in store. We got charge what they called a 'cover charge' on top of service charge (which we would be happy to pay if there service was up to standards) this 'cover charge' we got told it was for table cloths and menus. My pasta was under cooked. finally when we went to pay they lady was extremely rude and sarcastic when she told us that 'it was not possible to split the bill not evenly as some people only got drinks. she lied and said it was not possible when the card machine that was used we use at our own work and know this is possible. leaving one of us to pay the whole bill and transfer separately. do not go here!!!

I am a student and went with a group of my friends as we thought this restaurant looked nice and seemed reasonably priced when we looked online, we sat down and the prices on the menu were a lot higher. We were of course still willing to pay but clearly weren't of the class that most customers were. We were unbothered by this until we felt we were getting treated COMPLETELY different to others in there. We were made to feel very out of place and like we shouldn't be there, We received the bill and asked to split it, we were met with a lady who was incredibly rude and told us this wouldn't be possible without explaining why? We agreed and had 1 person pay which made it more difficult for us and on top of this AND service charge, we were also charged a 'cover charge' (we had never heard of this) which apparently meant we were paying for table cloths and menus which any basic restaurant should provide for free. The money really wasn't the issue but the way we were made to feel, we wouldn't want anyone else to go through.

I would not recommend this restaurant. I am a student myself and felt frowned upon and looked down on. We had to pay 'cover charge' which they told us was the tablecloths and menus which should be provided for free by the restaurant as we was already paying service charge. I ordered broccoli with chilli and garlic, what I received was boiled hard broccoli in a pond of water covered in a few speckles of chilli flakes and two pieces of tiny chopped garlic on the side. this is absolutely disgraceful for the amount of money I was paying. The lady behind the bar had no manners towards us customers. She told us it was impossible for us to slip the bill, even though she had a card machine where you could type in the amount of money.

The food was good and the staff was great but the owner. The ruddiest owner Ive ever met he literally told us leave! And when i talked to him privately i told him the only thing that made us leave was your rudeness he said yeah i know it. He was proud of it!!!!!

Awful owner and very rude. While the servers at this restaurant displayed commendable service, the overall experience was marred by the owner's discourteous demeanor. Unfortunately, the owner's rudeness overshadowed the positive efforts of the staff, leaving a disappointing impression on what could have been an enjoyable dining experience.

I experienced horrible service and paid 55 pounds for a plate of white truffle pasta that was overly oily. The bread served was cold, and the burrata portion was extremely small. Additionally, the waitress accidentally dropped two forks and a plate on my coat, ruining it. I will not be returning and do not recommend this place.

Tourist trap with hidden charges, food is basic at best, for the price they charge , it is not worth a visit.

Excellent, authentic Italian food. I was a late arrival (after 9:30pm) and was accommodated without any fuss. Great menu, really tasty food, lovely staff. Not the cheapest, but considering the quality it's very good value.

Food and service are perfect. Make your booking only by phone. Expect the restaurant to be full and consequently noisy. That’s because it’s so good. Be sure to try the house white and to end with the tiramisu.

Topadres! Hele lekkere keuken, vlotte bediening. De authentieke smaken van weleer. Dichtbij natural historic museum en Harrods

The dining experience was average, lacking any notable highlights. Regrettably, the service provided was exceptionally unsatisfactory. It was evident that the manager/owner exhibited a disdainful and overbearing demeanor, which greatly affected the overall atmosphere. The staff appeared demoralized, as if they were constantly on edge. Consequently, I would not recommend this establishment for intimate gatherings or family outings. A regrettable miscommunication occurred between the manager and my partner, wherein he approached her in an inappropriate manner and unjustly shifted the blame onto her, rather than fulfilling his duty as a server. It was disheartening to witness his self-importance taking precedence over professional conduct. Given the multitude of alternative dining options in the vicinity, I strongly advise against patronizing this particular establishment.

I had the most delightful dining experience at Giovanni restaurant in Knightsbridge. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The menu offered a superb selection of Italian dishes and authentic. The ambiance was perfect for a romantic dinner or a special celebration. Giovanni's attention to detail and commitment to quality truly set it apart. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. It's a must-visit for anyone seeking an Italian dining experience in London

Velmi chutné Italské jídlo. Opravdu tradiční chutě. Obshluha byla spíše "svá" ale dodávala tomu atmesferu. Jediné mínus, že většina lidí před restaurací kouřilo.

Couldn't fault the food & setting but the service was slow. Not enough staff to cope with number of customers & we dined early evening!

Terrible experience. Had a disgusting insect in the dish. And they just took away the plate, said nothing, no compensation. Being so rude. And I even have to pay so much for this awful service . Nothing worse.

A very very very bad experience for me. Firstly, the staff there gave the wrong starter which we didn’t order. Then, we told the staff to get some bread but they didn’t give us until finished. Overall, it is difficult to get service in this restaurant. I felt it was a discrimination for us.

They gonna bring you a bread basket without telling you that it will cost you 2£ per person. The old guy (he is a manager or owner) was a bit aggressive. He served me and didn’t offer a specials of the day( I found out about specials when he was serving a nearest table). After they gonna put +12.5% to your bill (a service cost) without telling you anything about it. Don’t go here if you wanna spend a good time in London. Not recommended

What a find. Beautiful al fresco setting (as well as indoor) under heat lamps. Food quality amazing. The lobster pasta was a lovely tasty dish. Service was also good, polite and efficient with good knowledge of the menu and what to suggest. I appreciated the other clientele as well who were considerate towards their fellow guests and polite to all. A lovely find in a great hidden location - quiet and pretty for central london. Highly recommended for an evening meal al fresco with a great wine list and wonderful food.

We found this restaurant by accident and I'm so glad we did - the food was fabulous and the staff/owner were really nice. Really enjoyable Saturday afternoon lunch.

I came here a while back before I was vegan. The food was average. Now I hear there isn't a single vegan option on the menu, which is short sighted at best and at worst doing themselves out of business. Shame.

Thank you, Félix! Credit where credit is due! Félix, our waiter, made us feel welcome and comfortable as soon as we walked through the door. He recommended some fantastic dishes, and we indulged! He also took the time to explain the cocktails, the food, and highlighted the true stars of the show. The food was well-cooked and perfectly executed, and the desserts were simply divine. Félix really made my birthday a memorable one. All of us left applauding his world-class service and customer care! Thank you, Félix, and the entire Harry's team. We’ll definitely be back again soon – highly recommend!

Si hubiera una opción para darle a este lugar más de cinco estrellas lo haría. Desde el momento en que entramos, el dueño Roberto nos abrió la puerta y nos sentó a nuestra mesa. Mi novia y yo estábamos celebrando nuestro aniversario de dos años en Londres, de visita desde los Estados Unidos. Fueron muy atentos y nos registraron regularmente, pasando por encima para hacernos sentir especiales. La comida y el vino fue uno de los mejores que he probado en mi vida. El Tiramisu fue por mucho el mejor postre que he comido. Siento que soy parte de su familia y recomendaría este lugar a CUALQUIERA para cualquier ocasión. Sin duda volveremos aquí en nuestra próxima visita, tal vez incluso de nuevo antes de salir!
