Gotto Trattoria in Hackney

Tuvimos una reunión familiar en este encantador restaurante italiano auténtico. Qué súper hallazgo, una joya escondida. La comida estaba todo recién preparado cada día, con algunas opciones increíbles en el menú. Esta fue probablemente la mejor comida italiana que he tenido y los cuatro quedamos impresionados. Además de la comida increíble, el personal era profesional, amable, y nada era demasiado problema. Gran atención al cliente. Hablamos con el chef - Maurizio y Andrea. (Maurizio era un apasionado de la pasta casera y la cocina). Nos dieron una cálida bienvenida encantadora, estilo italiano real. Puedo recomendar encarecidamente una visita a este maravilloso restaurante. Tanto que volvimos a llamar el miércoles y nos encontramos con el manager Jonathan. Fue un placer dar comentarios positivos. Volveremos. ¡Ojalá pudiéramos ser asiduos, pero está un poco lejos de Manchester! (Gran ubicación junto al canal). Gracias.

Fuimos con un grupo grande para una celebración. El personal era amable y servicial. Comida deliciosa y a un precio razonable. Ligera mezcla con los detalles de la reserva (no es nada importante), pero se resolvió de manera cortés y eficiente.

Visitado en una noche cálida y sentado fuera. Personal amable y atento, gran ambiente y la comida era deliciosa. Definitivamente volveré.

Visitado para un almuerzo familiar. El restaurante es pequeño, pero tiene vistas al canal. El menú es pequeño con especiales añadidos todos los días. Los platos de pasta eran deliciosos y las pizzas cayeron bien también. Las porciones son grandes. Los postres eran sabrosos - me encantó mi affogato. La carta de vinos era pequeña y bastante cara. El servicio fue genial. ¡Volveremos!

El gerente Andrea ha sido muy amable y servicial. Tuvimos una deliciosa pasta alla Norma y calamares tiene aperitivos. Nos quedamos tan impresionados que también visitamos unas noches antes y probamos la pizza. Opciones sin gluten también están disponibles. Muy recomendable.

Amazing food and service as usual. Maurizio the head chef and the front of the house made us feel like home. Thanks and see you soon!

We recently opted for a lunch at Gotto Trattoria, a decision fuelled by expectations of an authentic Italian dining experience. The initiation of our visit was less than seamless; upon my arrival, despite the presence of numerous vacant tables, I was informed that our reservation could not be located. This slight hiccup was momentarily resolved when my wife emerged from the facilities with our children, allowing us to settle at the table for our reservation my wife had already found. The culinary journey that ensued was, regrettably, a mixed affair. The calamari failed to impress, lacking the finesse one might anticipate from such an establishment. On a more positive note, the pasta—undeniably homemade—was a delightful testament to traditional craftsmanship. However, this achievement was overshadowed by a ragu sauce so overwhelmingly infused with garlic that it masked any other potential flavours. My son’s pizza was deemed merely average, a sentiment that did little to align with our expectations of an Italian-owned venue’s capability. Service throughout our visit was, bluntly put, below par. The manager’s preoccupation with his computer at the front door appeared to take precedence over guest service, contributing to a palpable neglect. Additionally, the disappearing act performed by the other waiter only served to exacerbate our growing dissatisfaction. Culminating our experience was the decision to order decaffeinated coffees, a choice we lamented posthaste. The quality was so profoundly unsatisfactory that it left us questioning the authenticity of the beverage. In summation, Gotto Trattoria fell markedly short of the expectations one might hold for an establishment boasting Italian ownership and culinary heritage. With an abundance of dining options available, it is with regret that we must conclude our experience at Gotto Trattoria as one better forgotten. The pursuit of authentic Italian cuisine, coupled with service that cherishes its patrons, is a quest that will continue elsewhere.

I went to Gotto Trattoria with my friends for a dinner. The atmosphere was amazing, everyone extremely friendly and it really felt like being in an Italian Trattoria. The food was delicious (word of Italian!) and price is very reasonable for the great quality. Samuel, our waiter, treated us divinely: only because we had to wait a bit more than the standard timing, we had a bottle of wine on the house - so much appreciated. At the end of the dinner, chef Maurizio put some Italian songs and we all danced together. Well done, we will definitely go back! Thanks Samuel for the amazing service, you are a star!

Really delicious - particularly loved the maccheroncini and tiramisu. Lovely owner and staff too - super impressed overall!

Friendly staff and excellent Italian food (proper Italian food!) The Chef (Maurizio) is excellent and has a clear passion for Italian / Sicilian specialities. The menu is short, but complete. The maccheroncini with mushrooms and truffle oil are a delight. If you are lucky enough you may also get some special Sicilian arancini on the menu. The area is also very nice, walking path, pleasant and great in sunny days. I'll definitely come back!

This was a decidedly average restaurant. The food was bland and average. The ragu lacked depth and flavour. The garlic bread was burnt in places and had a bitter after taste. The service lacked a smile. She seriously didn't smile once and sulked when we asked to have the service charge of 12.5% removed....... Good points. The pizza was tasty. The mushroom pasta was pleasant.

Went with my wife on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Decided to order selection of starters as we were not extremely hungry, and we were not disappointed. The Octopus salad is a must and the meatballs with fennel were packed with flavour. Did not try the pizza but looking at the table nearby it seemed very good. If you add great setting and attentive service, this place comes highly recommended

The atmosphere of the restaurant is really homely and comfortable. Nazarena was a lovely host for my friends birthday! Lovely, tasty pizza and great service overall.!

It’s a beautiful restaurant,great Italian food and very friendly staff. We were there as a family and served by Martina. She was so nice and helpful. We will definitely go back. Highly recommended.

We came in for dinner for 2, had the zucchini and arancini to start, both really tasty, followed by 2 pizzas. Pizzas were really great, will definitely come back! Great homely atmosphere and service was great as well!

I came here with my partner for our anniversary on a very quiet Monday night – there were only 2 other tables. We were greeted by the very friendly host and the impeccable service continued throughout. We shared the arancini and bruschetta for a starter, both were absolutely delicious but the arancini especially was to die for! I had the maccheroncini pasta which included truffle oil and Italian sausage and I s*** you not it was the best pasta dish I've ever had. Blew my mind. For dessert we shared the homemade tiramisu which almost made me cry it was so good. Along with a bottle of wine the bill came to just over £80 for both of us which for the quality of the food was an absolute bargain. I cannot recommend this place highly enough, it's a must visit if you're anywhere near the area.

We stopped for lunch. The appetizers were really good, I had parmigiana that was on the daily menu and it was delicious - my husband had pizza and it also was great. Thank you for the service Martina!

Cannot fault the service. Martina was so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and made us feel so welcome and at home. The Bologna pizza was to die for as was the mushroom and truffle pasta. And the negroni! It was the best my partner has had. We were so well looked after and have found our new fave Italian. Can’t wait to come back.

The place may not be the closest to London town center but it's definitely worth a shot! I have been living in UK since 2015 and so far i can state this is the best Italian restaurant where i ate in this country (I'm from Italy). It's the true representation of what fresh food means, not like the crap that they come up in pseudo FAKE Italian restaurant chains, pseudo Italian restaurants or the ones that they adapt their menu to the local cuisine. Me, my partner and my parents were served by two skilled and lovely waitresses (Martina & Nazzarena) that made us feel very comfortable and welcomed. I don't usually say this, but everything we tried was amazing. Therefore, i highly recommend it to anyone would like to have a great meal with real Italian Food!

We stumbled across this place after an activity at the velopark. The menu was full of delicious sounding dishes so it was difficult to choose but we all had pizzas. The Bologna pizza had a whole burrata on top with mortadella and pistachios….. the most delicious and indulgent pizza I’ve ever had! Our two year old loves his margarita pizza and the chocolate ice cream at the end was amazing. Great value kids two courses and a drink for £7. We will be coming back next time we are in the area.

We came here to have dinner with friends and it was a fantastic experience. The service was brilliant, our waitress was knowledgable about the whole menu and our special requests. We had the calamari to start with which was not too oily. Our pizza and pasta mains were all full of flavour and you could tell they make the pasta fresh and use premium ingredients. We were pleasantly surprised at the price when we received the bill.

Excellent gluten free and veggie options. Lovely service and perfect location for after the copper box. I’ll be back again!

Hi, I was there today and had a booking for 3 people and called in to reschedule.. The lovely lady on the phone kindly did this for us. When i arrived she was veru attentive, warming and brought a great energy. We had an amazing...

Fantastic food and atmosphere- we were a large party and food and drinks were served very promptly by a super attentive team!

Delicious, fresh pasta. The Maccheroncini consisted of fresh homemade pasta with a creamy wild mushroom sauce/Italian sausage and truffle oil. Hands down one of the best pasta dishes I have ever eaten outside of Italy! (14.75£) The tiramisu here was amazing as well! (6£) The...

Fab atmosphere, incredible food, wonderful service. One of the best neighbourhood restaurants around

Dinner with my daughter and it was fab - such a lovely welcome, thank you, food was excellent and YES it is fresh pasta! Aperol Spritz was lovely too - highly recommend.

Bad experience, the food came with Anchovies when we made it clear we are veggie, had to push back upselling and literally argue for a discount to compensate for the wrong order, embarrassingly bad service. They did replace the food after I had eaten enough...

My girlfriend and I stumbled across this lovely restaurant very spontaneously, but we were so glad we did. The food is sooo good! We had a couple of starters including the burrata (outstanding) and the salami platter, then had 2 gluten free pizza’s - which...

Great food, great service, great evening and great atmosphere We will be back for sure 🌻 Grazie Marco!

We came twice, in family and during our vacations. Just one word : perfect. The food, the place and the waiters are perfect. Thank you so much for your kindness and this great experience. We hope to come back again!

We were served by Leo and the service was amazing, he was very friendly and catered to all of our needs. He recommended a starter and main for me to eat, and they did not disappoint. The location of the restaurant is lovely with a...

We had a lovely meal here - definitely recommend the squid and chorizo dish it was delish! The pizza was also great and the waiter was friendly. Would go back and recommend to friends. We went to the arcade game bar a few doors down...

We were a table of four, dining on a Saturday evening. The food was lovely, but the service was appalling. We had to ask for cutlery to eat our meals; we had to ask them to clear plates in between courses and remind them of...

We ordered 3 beers and 3 coffees. The coffees were cold, the beers tasted to water. Plus bad service, the buy is very rude. Won’t come again and would recommend to anyone.

5 out of 5. Marco and the head chef were lovey. The chef explained how he cooked our meal and made us feel very special………….

This restaurant definitely deserves it’s Michelin star, delicious Italian food at very reasonable prices. We got the deep fried squid with spicy mayo to share for starters. For mains we shared the summer veggie pizza and the tagliatelle with beef ragu. We were debating whether...

Martina, Eva and Alberto (staff) were excellent. They treated us very nicely and the food was very good i recomend the martini expresso!! . If i have something to say about this place is the great atmosphere and the staff. Will come again!!

We had dinner and sat at the terrace. A very cool atmosphere, the music was energetic enough to motivate you to have a good evening without being overwhelming. Alberto and Martina were absolutely on top of it and we never had to wait or ask...

I can’t believe someone said the best Italian in London, I’m genuinely shocked and also very confused. This is the worst Italian in London, food comes out Luke warm, food is meh, yet it’s so pricey. What can I say guys?

Would certainly recommend eating here. Great flavours and crust, I really enjoyed this place, the staff are really friendly. If you are in the neighbourhood check it out.

Me and my friends found Gotto after a long stroll in Hackney Wick and were really pleased to sit in this laid-back and charming restaurant overlooking the canal. Their pizza and pasta were utterly delicious , proof that all seems to be freshly made in...

Great night out with friends served by Alberto, and amazing meal recommendation by chef Maurizio.. definitely recommend!

A group of 8 ate here recently, The pizzas, although the list is slightly limited only 6, are some of the best I've eaten. The pizza base was superb. What I particularly liked, was that they served a selection of normal, white (no tomato) and...

Had a fabulous veggie pizza here. Excellent service and friendly atmosphere. My compliments to all the staff; you are doing a fantastic job.

Food was really fresh and tasted delicious. Excellent value as well, particularly for Stratford. Definitely will be returning

The food is amazing but is the second time I come back and the waitress is thanking the piss! The first time I came was 8.50 and i couldn’t take the order when I came back a few days later Around 8.20 she said that...

there is a lot of competition for pizza in London, but very few are anything like the pizza that we ate in Italian towns (away from the tourist spots). This is the closest I have got. I was so happy I went to say thanks...

I was ecstatic having just watched Arsenal lift their 14th FA cup by beating the Chelsea scum, but before my takeaway £8 magharetia, was even ready, my mood was lowered when I saw my fiends misshapen and undersized pizza. The box was a standard size...

Randomly walked passed this restaurant and so happy myself and my partner followed our instincts to check it out. Service is swift considering the waitress is by herself she was attentive and constantly with a smile on her face. Love the music playlist and food...

A relaxed vibe is the best phrase to capture this delightful Italian restaurant. The staff display a sense of calm that puts you at ease and they make themselves available to help. The venue is tucked away near a canal in Hackney that provides the...

Second visit to Gotto and the pasta was just as good. Lovely fresh pasta with beef ragu sauce. Welcoming service and fair value for money. Recommended.

We arrived for a late lunch on a Thursday and we had the place all to ourselves. The staff were absolutely delightful. They were very attentive to the needs of a colleague who is a vegan. Every dish was delicious and prepared freshly. And there...

I’ve been a regular customer at Gotto for the past few years - and love their £10 Tuesday deals! Plus they do amazing courgette fritters and calamari! The only reason I haven’t given 5 stars is because they keep taking more pasta off the menu...

After 2 weeks in and around Naples, I was surprised to find a pizza in London that matches up to the standard I had got used to. The pizza here is delicious, made in the Neapolitan style, the dough is flavoursome, the crust just the...

Just enjoyed a perfect lunch at Gotto. Linguine dish was fab. Fresh pasta cooked perfectly with mussels and a touch of chilli. Good low alcohol beer too. Friendly quick service. Recommended.

Wanted to love this place but despite a lovely time i’ve just had horrendous food poisoning from eating here. maybe avoid...

Love this place amazing food. Good service and value. Plus yummy wine. See you soon. So good 😊 will be back again soon.

Visited at lunch for our daughters birthday. Service was good but unobtrusive - not rushed. The principle seems to be (a la Gordon Ramsey), create a small menu but make the food good. They did that excellently and each of our diehes were excellent in...

Proper Italian food shouldn't be hard to find in London, but it is! This little trattoria is simple and basic with great ingredients and a wonderful location next to the canal. The menu has been reduced recently and there are less specials, but it's still...

£20 for two soggy, small pizzas. Ordered as take away which I ordered and waited for (so no time delay leading to them becoming soggy). Waterlogged with watery tomato. Never again.

I've been to Gotto Trattoria twice this July and I love it! It's a super chilled Italian restaurant in a relaxed environment in Hackey Wick. When the sun is out, it's nice to chill outside with a drink and pizza. The pizza and courgette fries...

This is a fantastic restaurant and I would even say one of the best places to eat in hackney wick! The workers are such lovely people, who make sure that you have a lovely experience I.e brining our a desert with candle without being promoted...

Gotto Trattoria serves excellent pizza and pasta. It is one of the many restaurants that have opened at Canalside , in Hackney Wick. The food is good, the staff great and the atmosphere beside the canal is vibrant. You can eat outside, (as we did...

We came for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Understandably, it was very busy as the weather was beautiful, but the service was extremely slow. We asked for two mains and a sharing starter to arrive at the same time. The fried courgettes came after we...

I have nothing negative to say. The location is ok if you are working near by. Food and prices too. Nice service, nice music

Google maps Couldn’t find it so we got very wet walking up and down the river when we did we wasn’t disappointed !! Great setting even thou a wet evening and the restaurant is funky and down out well Service was different the ladies could...

Carbonara here is delicious - everything super fresh and full of flavour. Went on a warm Saturday evening and the whole place was packed - book in advance to get a table outside. Right next to a row of bars right on the canal so...

Unfortunately the restaurant don't have a single vegetarian main option. When I asked, they explained they only have two options which have rennet, I.e. aren't vegetarian, but if I didn't mind I could have one of those. No offer was made to increase the size...

We went with daughter and grandson. Good starters with the meat balls real standout with good use of herbs and spices in sauce. Mains really good with lamb skewers, marinated and tender. Also an interesting small spiral pasta with basil pesto and sundried tomatoes. Everything...

Today I visited with friends, the group included two children. The menu is anything but special; the food was mediocre (eg bland trofie and gnocchi, lamb meat cut was not so good) but the worst part was the service, which was incompetent and slow, and...

My bf and I decided to take a visit at gotto trattoria yesterday and we were very satisfied with the choice we made. Fried squid and deep fried mozzarella along with the sauces was a super tasty starter, following with pasta amatraciana and finishing off...

Been in Stratford for a week of business training. Happened to find the place while walking along the canal and it was love at first sight. I came back there for lunch everyday. A great variety of Italian food with English and other cuisines twist....

We went in for a Business Dinner. The starters were simply great. The Main disch very good and the dessert delicious. Fantastic food in a nice location.

A great find close to the Velodrome. A simple but quality menu. As a small group we pretty much ordered everything from the menu and all us sampled everything! All dishes were great! - don’t let the simple menu put you off, is all excellent...

A great resturant right by the canal and a short walk from Stratfords Westfield. Great food and service with loads of options for a 3 course meal.

Myself and my partner popped in for an unplanned lunch on our bike ride. We started with a bloody Maria and a Pinot rose which were both great. We ordered the meatballs and burrata with focaccia from the antipasti and shared the seafood pasta. Everything...

Visited with 2 friends, not a great selection of main meals, exactly 5 mains. I had the gnocchi with pesto (to much pesto) my friend’s mixed meat skewer was very undercooked, but was cooked again to his taste. However the 12.5% service charge was the...

Went for a walk around the Olympic Park and came across this lovely little Italian. Located right next to the canal, with great views on a sunny evening. Food was excellent (try the lasagne!).

What a treat, but not a painfully expensive one. Loved the food, loved the wine and staff. Really is a great find and the gnocchi pesto, deep fried mozzarella balls and Sicilian wine made me and my companion very happy indeed. Also not to be...

I ate here today and it was lovely! The setting is lovely, right beside the canal which is beautiful in the sun. The service was good and I liked the fact you can see the kitchen, it feels like a cosy family run restaurant. Perhaps...

Went today with our 2 kids and we all loved it. Food 10/10 .. staff 10/10 .. drinks were great too. Loved it and will be back. Thank you for a great afternoon.

Came here for a birthday meal. Lovely setting, like a tiny oasis, in the east of London. Situated next to the canal, just along from the Olympic park, its a really nice setting for an meal.

Our food was good, but a man came in begging for money from diners. I signalled this to the staff, initially with raised eyebrow then with raised hand. Eventually the manager came over and said (to me, ignoring the beggar) that she never knew how...

I’m Italian and I had a starter and some meat with a spritz, all was very good and staff speaks Italian with customers and in the kitchen! Nice place on the canal at correct prices. Enjoy outside tables in a sunny day..

Stopped at Gotto whilst visiting family in the area. Great location and excellent fresh food. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend a visit, we had a variety of dishes and enjoyed all of them. Hope to return when next in the area.

We stumbled across this place during a exhausting bicycle ride in the Olympic park. Looked like a nice place for a cold drink and breather and it turned out we made a good choice. The staff were friendly and the choice of drinks although small...

Super friendly folks. But their bloody Mary's were like sea water with a hint of tomato. They kindly didn't make us pay but served it twice.

There’s lots of competition for your lunchtime spend at Here East and I’d never before been drawn to Gotto, but the concise and tasty menu of meals was a refreshing surprise and, although the portion size was on the small side, the food was just...

Stopped here after walking a half day up the Limehouse cut and Lea Navigation. We opted for the dish of the day. Shared a starter and then tucked into a tasty home made Lasagne. Nice glass of Chianti to wash down. Feels like a half...

I'm sure it is lovely, but how on earth do you find this place?!! we drove round for about an hour. East Bay Lane not on map, satnav found it amusing to take us down lots of dead end roads and even though recently updated...

Great place for lunch. The menu is limited however the food was fresh and tasted great. Good portion sizes. Friendly staff and a very child friendly place. Local beer available on tap.

Anyway... there we were... walking from Springfield Park to Limehouse (10 Miles) and we decided to stop for brunch. Lots of stupid people queuing at The Breakfast Club next door (sheep...) and we wandered in here! Lovely service, a brunch to die for, great coffee...

This place is amazing. We went as a group of 23 for an office Christmas lunch and had a set menu. The restaurant could not have been more accommodating or organised. The food was so delicious and the service was excellent. I've dined in large...

We went there as a large group and the staff were friendly and helpful. The starter waals tasty and I had what was effectively a clam and chilli pasta for main which was pretty good but some of my friends had the lasagna which was...

We went foraging in Wick Woodland and the walk ended up by accident outside this place. It was a friend’s birthday and 11 of us in all. The staff were very friendly, efficient and accommodating, considering we hadn’t booked. I had the aubergine parmigiana which...
