Gola Restaurant in Hammersmith and Fulham

Excellent Italian Classics with quality ingredients and Puglia traditional dishes Host and waiters very friendly and professionals

Always a fantastic evening, great food, great atmosphere

It is my favorite restaurant in London. Great food in a charming and trendy, but not too much, atmosphere and real Italian Patron

Best Italian restaurant in Fulham/Parsons Green. Authentic Italian cuisine. Food delicious, a great service and a nice atmosphere. Really recommend!

We'd always wanted to try this local restaurant, having read good reviews and seen that it is well patronised. Sadly I have to report that the food was not great and we were astounded at the cost - over £200 for three bowls of pasta and two rounds of beer/wine. Two had seafood with pasta, one of which had a solitary prawn.... I chose carbonara which was cold and over salty. I am not in the habit of writing poor reviews, generally I vote with my feet. But on this occasion the eye watering cost has prompted me to write. I see that the restaurant is very often busy, and certainly on the night we were there it was buzzy and the atmosphere was great. I aways wish that local venues thrive and so perhaps this was an unusual evening. But we will not return and risk spending a lot of money in less than mediocre food.

Owner super rude and extremely cocky... Food and service very disappointing…

Good food, eccellent italian cuisine, good service! Top

First and last visit to Gola. Very disappointing. £200+ for three average bowls of pasta, four glasses of basic wine and two Peronis. Hopefully this was an off night as I want Fulham restaurants to thrive

Amazing place - super romantic back room, very friendly and welcoming staff. And the carbonara… mamma mia, just like my nonna would make

Gola is always a great place to go for an evening dinner…

We were a group of 3 and had an excellent meal with superb service. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Thoroughly recommend.

Such a fun atmosphere and eclectic decor. Service was amazing and food is delicious. They make you feel right at home

How to feel at home in London! Fantastic and welcoming location, delicious food and impeccable service! The strong point is the staff, starting from the owner who was super kind and helpful with my girls at lunch today! Super recommended!!!

Lovely service and great food! Compliments to the owner and chef

Sono stata in vacanza a Londra con la mia famiglia e per festeggiare il compleanno di mio marito, siamo andati a cena in questo ristorante che ormai è un punto di riferimento per gli italiani a Londra e che conoscevo già per fama. Piatti italiani con un affondo sulla Puglia, di cui devo assolutamente recensire le spettacolari orecchiette con cime di rape e salsiccia, dove l’aggiunta del finocchietto risulta vincente ( sono pugliese e so di cosa parlo). Ma anche la cacio e pepe, servita con mezza caciotta e la deliziosa carbonara meritano! Sfiziosi gli scagliozzi foggiani, triangolini di polenta fritta golosissimi che hanno trovato un connubio perfetto con la salsa al formaggio. Gnocchi alla nutella spaziali, con una granella frizzantina che amplifica e fa esplodere tutto il loro sapore. Un fine pasto perfetto! Il tutto in un ambiente stravagante e particolare, con personale attento e gentile e proprietari competenti e simpaticissimi. Prezzo giusto considerando la qualità dei prodotti. Veramente un’esperienza piacevole!

I stayed with my family while visiting London. Room furnished with flair, welcoming atmosphere, very kind staff and impeccable service. That said, I had the best cacio e pepe ever. Gola would be an excellent restaurant in Italy too, but being in London clearly has added value. Good value for London standards.

It's beatiful local great! Very good italian couisine MR Aron is a very gentleman! I should a thats all that's experience...

Great menu, great ingredients quality. Simply the best!

Abbiamo cenato in famiglia, accoglienza e servizio fantastici. Locale accogliente e con atmosfera molto particolare. Piatti superlativi..consigliatissimo

Beautiful spot in Chelsea. Great indoor atmosphere. Food was great and Aaron treated us very well

As a vegan I am always hesitant about authentic Italian restaurants however this blew it out the water! Fantastic service and fantastic delicious food! I would recommend here to anyone!

Great atmosphere, excellent food and service! We’ll be back for sure!

excellent experience, very welcoming environment, friendly staff, the best place in London to eat Italian cuisine!!!

Excellent. I had a pizza and it was so tasty. Well made but also the ingredients were high quality and rich with favours. My favourite Italian Restaurant in London

Cozy place, very nice, friendly and helpful staff. We are Italian and I consider the place to have the best Italian cuisine in London. I highly recommend

Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. Best Italian we’ve had in Fulham!

Miglior ristorante italiano a Londra! Carbonara buonissima! Proprietario e cameriera simpaticissimi! Super consigliato

Great meal, with good choices and a lovely ambience

Absolutely AMAZING… food was stunning… wine was perfect … and service phenomenal… they really gave you a warm welcome and made you feel very special throughout.

We chose this place based on previous reviews, however we were pretty disappointed overall. Service was not great, likely due to us being in the far corner of the restaurant. Food was very expensive for what was served, especially the £4 surcharge for gluten free pasta which is shop bought. Although GF pasta is an option it is not clear which dishes are actually GF adaptable based on other ingredients.

Amazing food as always . Don’t miss the cacio e Pepe 😉 it would be a sin !

Gola was recommended through a friend and I’m glad I took their recommendation. The ambience was elegant yet playful. A mix of white linen napkins, tied in an abstract form, and eclectic art. Mostly white, clean lines with pops of color. The food followed these lines blending traditional Italian dishes we all love with some unexpected twists like the ravioli with a honey truffle sauce. In short, delicious and probably some of the best I’ve had, outside Italy. Lastly the service. Excellent. Personal and friendly without being intrusive. The owner, Aaron, greeted me at the door and checked on me several times, helping me make some decisions and recommending some wine. Julie, the server, had a genuine smile and was clearly happy to be there. She was professional and yet kind and approachable. Aaron’s elegant wife was always checking in on customers, many of whom were obviously regulars. A great experience. I’ll be back next time I’m in London.

I had a lovely meal at this cozy restaurant with warm lighting and soft background music. The staff was incredibly friendly. We ordered focaccia, burrata, Cacio e Pepe, pasta with ragù, cheesecake, tiramisù, and two sparkling waters, totaling £118 with an extra 12.5% service charge. The food was flavorful and satisfying, though the prices felt a bit high. It was my husband's birthday, and while we enjoyed the evening, it would have been nice to receive a small gesture like a complimentary treat or a "Happy Birthday" message on the dessert, as other places often do. Overall, a great experience. 4 stars.

Had a fantastic dining experience at Gola Italian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors and beautifully presented dishes. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a true taste of Italy!

Great food and service was sublime! Highly recommended.

Nice option in the area, certainly one of the best, good service, food is authentic and nice atmosphere.

Amazing customer service and delicious food. A gem in Fulham ! Grazie a presto !

The best Italian restaurant that I have tried in London living here for 14 years. Amazing Puglian food and amazing owner. Aaron makes you feel at home!

Dinner at Gola restaurant is like taking a quick trip to Italy. Parmigiana was the highlight!

Gola is best in Fulham. Awesome food and service!

Excellent place!!!! Very good food, incredible quality! Real real Italian! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Outstanding food on a Friday evening. The Chefs “Nervous” Pasta was awesome. Highly recommended. Best in Fulham!!

Zucchini frites and the black pepper pasta (we added crispy bacon) were delicious!!! We’ll be back :)

My favourite place in London, the best Italian restaurant in the Big Smoke

Best Italian restaurant in London!!!! The food is amazing, and the service is outstanding! I felt right at home.

Unbelievably good, do not go anywhere else in Fulham if you want authentic Italian served with elan. This is a phenomenal restaurant. The quality of food produced by the kitchen is absolutely top drawer. Off the charts excellent.

Great service, food never disappoints. A neighbourhood favourite

I would give this unique restaurant 50 stars if I could! Food was absolutely beyond delicious, authentic Italian food by an Italian family from the coast of the Mediterranean.

Good restaurant and very good food

Great and super food we will eat there again. That’s it really a really good local restaurant

Amazing!!! Best Italian!! Grazie!!

Best Italian restaurant in London

Super ristorante italiano a Londra tutto buonissimo e lo staff super gentilissimi,se volete sentirvi in casa consiglio pienamente. Per me miglior ristorante italiano a Londra...

Great food, friendly service, great cocktails and just the right ambience for a Friday night after a long week.

The best Italian restaurant in London, I recommend 100%

“Best Italian restaurant in London “ absolutely recommend

I went to Gola for business dinner and is safe to say that is the best Italian restaurant in London. I will back definitely

definitely best Italian restaurant in London

Superb local with excellent food and a charming service. Aaron runs a great restaurant

The best pasta in Fulham! Such a wonderful vibe and amazing atmosphere. The he service staff are just so nice we are so lucky to have this one of a kind restaurant in this are with the best carbonara around too!

As soon as you step in you feel like home. Aaron welcoming is second to none. Food wise, if you want to taste the real Puglia food look no further.Everything we try was delicious, very difficult to say what was our favourite dish, from starters to desserts was a joy to the palate. The only advice I can give is, if you go by car, make sure you park far away, you will be stuffed. We will definitely be back

Great as ever. Cheese and truffle pasta never fails and the sea bass was a a new one for me and was delicious

Delicious selection served well and a very nice atmosphere on a wet and cool night!

Incredible evening, the food, service and atmosphere were superb! Best restaurant! Top tip - get the ricotta and truffle ravioli

Some of the best food I’ve had in London. Not a joke, lived here two years and the first place that’s ever blown me away. You’re life isn’t complete if you haven’t eaten here

The best food, the best experience, the best service! I wish I live around here!

Titolare Aaron persona squisita, vi fa sentire a vostro agio , ma cosa fondamentale cibo ottimo grazie allo chef Made in Irpinia , veramente di alta qualità italiana, antipasto per 2 + 2 primi ed una focaccia con 2 calici di chianti 130 pound, servizio compreso ed amaro offerto! Andrei tutte le settimane per quelle orecchiette con le cime di rapa 🥺❤️ bravi non mollate !! Raggiungibile in Metro alle spalle del ristorante 150 mt

The only place in London to eat truly Italian is Gola. The dishes and the quality of the raw materials are of the highest quality. Warm atmosphere and professional service. The first courses, troccoli cacio e pepe, orecchiette with chop and cacio ricotta are remarkable. Well done, well done… I will definitely go back

Posto idilliaco tra una cucina ottima con selezione varia di piatti tipici italiani . Aggiungici simpatia e servizio molto valido a costi normali . Lo consiglio!

Overall pretty good - a little cramped if sitting down the back

Excellent tasty food and delicious . Had a great time .

Our food was delicious, fresh ingredients and tasted amazing - the Aubergine Gnocchi & Arancini Truffle would defo recommend!

Amazing service and such good energy from the whole team. Food is incredible and the price is very reasonable and worth it. Would recommend the ‘happy ending’ dessert if you’re feeling cheeky!

The food was really tasty, the staff was beyond friendly, and the decorations and music was on point. This is officially my new favourite place in Parsons Green.

Always a great night in Gola. Lovely staff, delicious food and a fantastic atmosphere.

So delicious! Would 100% recommend. The staff were all divine too.

We had a lovely dinner at Gola! Would highly recommend. Service was great!

Great food and vibe! Terrific friendly service too.

Ho festeggiato il mio compleanno di 50 anni Tutto buonissimo Aron gentilissimo e professionale Super consigliato Un pezzo d Italia a Londra

Love this Italian restaurant. Service is excellent and very good value.

Aaron is such a great host delivering first class food. Thanks from Mark and his friends from last night.

I found this restaurant to be a very impressive. Almost seems like its family owned. Although I cannot verify but it is lovely. All the staff are absolutely joyful. They are happy to serve you, they will interact with you iPhone, the whole experience very, very close to having dinner with Family food is amazing as well. The portions being very generous and sadly. I was not able to finish my plate. Because I ordered a starter and a main and that defeated me. However, I wish I was able to finish both because both of them were delicious. I would recommend this restaurand it's going to be on my Rota now

Really lively atmosphere, good food, great service delicious wines. Hard to fault really.

Great service and amazing food! We had each of the chef specialties, along with a pizza and pasta for the kids…all were outstanding. This is definitely a little gem on Fulham road!

Excepcional servicio. Buen ambiente y comida muy buena. Un poco alejado si estás en el centro pero vale la pena. Enhorabuena!!!

Gola is AMAZING… incredible food, fabulous atmosphere and the best Negroni’s in London!

Great evening in Gola, as always. Fantastic local restaurant

Gola has been our favourite restaurant for years. You just cannot beat it!

Instantly captivating and cosy atmosphere. The staff and service was incredible, super friendly and helpful staff. Food was incredibly tasty with a good variety in the menu with lots of vegetarian options!

Amazing venue- staff so incredibly friendly- food was fast and of the highest quality- our new favourite Italian in the area!!

Fantastic atmosphere, food and host! Cannot recommend it enough

A very friendly and authentic family-run southern Italian restaurant. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Ristorante italiano a Londra dove poter gustare dei piatti a dir poco fantastici proprietario Aron gentile e simpatico che ti fa sentire a casa . Lo consiglio vivamente se vi trovate a Londra non può mancare la tappa da Gola

Fantastic small Italian in Parsons Green . The staff were great & friendly . Lots of choice for starters & mains. Also lots of veggie choices . Between us we had Burata , truffle Arancini , calamari, and a sharing board . So many choices for each course ! First time we have been and would definitely revisit ! Special birthday in the group & they put a candle in the ice cream !

Sehr leckeres Essen und schönes Ambiente. Flinkes und Kompetentes Personal. Die Pizzen haben eine sehr leckere und frische Tomatensose. Nächstes mal probiere ich Trüffel, es roch bei den darauffolgenden Bestellungen sehr stark und schön nach Trüffel. Danke!

Siamo stati in questo ristorante consigliato da amici e devo dire tutto buonissimo cibo eccellente locale accogliente e il proprietario Aron una persona davvero simpatica e disponibile . Lo consiglio vivamente per chi si trova a Londra e vuole mangiare del buon cibo italiano
