Independently run Italian restaurant with a very friendly owner. The panzerrotti is a favourite and the osso buco (special) was fantastic.

One of the best Italians I’ve been to in a long time. Antonio grows a lot of the veg used in the dishes and everything is made with love and passion. Me and my partner had the caprese with fresh tomato from his orchard and oregano flower and the fungi fondentte to start at both were incredible! The mains also did not disappoint. Friendly, caring service with a smile and a story. Could not recommend more, terrific value and quality!

What can I say - Antonio is wonderful and so is his food. He was super accommodating to us coming a little bit late and everything was delicious. The veal Milanese was to die for as was the pollo rigatoni. Please please come here

DO NOT GO. After a very small meal i had a dispute with the manager who quickly started swearing at me, grabbed my phone and called the policing saying i would not pay. I was trying to pay. Naturally the police thought it was silly but it was an unpleasant time.

Great little authentic Italian run by Antonio, has some great life stories to tell and makes a mean home-cooked dish.

The food was very average and expensive for the quality. Portion sizes are generous. The fried squid was over cooked and dry and the sea bass tasted old and not fresh. Service is not fast but all aspects were done by the owner so he was trying his best.

What a lovely place. Antonio is a superstar...he was by himself and miraculously kept on bringing us the most delicious food - a lot of which came from his allotment. He even got me eating rhubarb which is unheard of. It was my birthday and I was on crutches and he was so kind. If you're in a rush, don't come. If you want to be treated like you're in a Calabrian family's house and love grazing on fab food and wine...this is for you

Never been to a place closer to an Italian restaurant as this, you honestly feel like you are in Italy. Same genuine approach and passion to cooking and looking after clients. The owner is a very good host, something that has been lost in todays London catering industry. High attention for ingredients and this is reflected on the tasty food.

Delicately cooked swordfish with fresh herbs. Bread with a delicious crust on it. Such a warm welcome from the proprietor/chef who looked after us wonderfully. It was a cold December evening which made this especially nice. I'd take the lighting down a fair bit as a suggestion.

I booked having seen the good reviews online and the good value prices advertised on their website. Annoyingly, these prices are not accurate and dishes cost considerably more. For example, Veal Milanese is advertised as £11.50 but when you get into the restaurant it's actually £15.50. Weirdly, on our way in I noticed that it was advertised outside as being £13.50. What I thought would be a good value meal turned out to more expensive (but not as good) as our local Italian restaurant. It was frustrating that we'd travelled there on the pretence of a bit of a bargain only to end up paying more than our regular place. Price aside, the food itself was OK but nothing special.

(Traducido por Google) Dándole estas 5 estrellas porque el propietario, Antonio, también es el frente de la casa, el chef, el servidor, el barman, y se las arregló para ofrecernos una deliciosa comida, mientras entablaba una gran charla :) Llegué un viernes por la noche invernal y tenía los raviolis de espinacas (mi favorito del lote), filete de ternera, pollo cacciatore, panna cotta y tiramisú. Las porciones eran grandes ya un precio razonable. Antonio también prepara el postre, ¡el tiramisú estaba muy bueno! Give Antonio es un espectáculo de 1 persona cuando el restaurante no está completamente reservado, es mejor no venir si tienes prisa o esperas un servicio rápido. (Original) Giving this 5 stars because the owner, Antonio, is also the front of the house, the chef, the server, the bartender - & he managed to get some delicious food out to us, while engaging in some great chat :) Came on a wintry Friday night & had the spinach ravioli (my favorite of the lot), steak fillet, chicken cacciatore, panna cotta & tiramisu. Portions were big & reasonably priced. Antonio makes the dessert as well - the tiramisu was very good! Give Antonio is a 1-man show when the restaurant isn't fully reserved, it's best not to come if you're in a rush or expect fast service.

The food in this restaurant was absolutely outstanding; everything we tried was delicious without fail. The restaurant is at a rather unassuming spot on Blackstock Road, and so I hadn't actually noticed it before (even though I have lived in Finsbury Park for over two years) but we will definitely definitely be coming back here again. Antonio was such a gem and made our visit really special. Would definitely recommend a dinner here; also really good value, and big portions!

We came on a Saturday night and the place was dead which was a real shame. The food and service were great. Antonio the chef and the waitress were both really good and the value for money is excellent. We were given homemade bread and tapanade for free to start. The mushroom starter and chicken ravioli were standout dishes. If you live locally then give it a go as it's an excellent local restaurant which needs support.

Tried this restaurant before an Arsenal game, because of the good reviews. Can only think I went on their off day. Average food, and even allowing for pre football rush, the service was very slow. Added to that, it seemed expensive for what we had. Two decent starters, two over cooked mains, and two glasses of house red - £70, incl service. Unlikely to make a return visit.

We visited il Cavaliere for a birthday dinner for one of our kids and has a fantastic time. Nothing was too much trouble, various dietary requirements were easily and happily met. The food was fantastic . We had a variety of starters which ranged from freshly cooked crispy squid, awesome garlic prawns to more traditional Parma ham and melon. The main courses were just as fantastic. Lobster ravioli, Squid Spaghetti, and a terrific traditional Carbonara. Other Pasta dishes were tweaked to the individual needs of the customers. Nothing was too much trouble. Every effort was made to make this a special event for us. The food was fantastic and the service was just as great. Only one comment the lights need to be dimmed a bit, it was a little bright for a super restaurant. I would definitely go back again and so should you !!

Una joya escondida! Usted caminaría sin darse cuenta de que era un restaurante, ¡pero qué experiencia más increíble! Tuvimos una maravillosa botella de rojo recomendado por el chef según nuestros gustos y una ganga a los 22 años. Teníamos los langostinos y calamares para empezar, tan frescos, sorprendentes pero simples sabores. Tuvimos la carbonara y un tagliatelle de marisco (el nombre propio se me escapa), mi amigo pensó que la carbonara era lo mejor que había probado. He pasado mucho tiempo en Italia trabajando y este restaurante ofrece una experiencia genuina, el propietario y el chef son del sur de Italia y también conocimos a su encantadora hija e hijo, ¡una experiencia llena de familia!

So me and my colleagues discovered this hidden gem a good few months ago and can within a doubt tell you that we are obsessed! Not only is the food always delicious, they now serve HALAL chicken and bolognese!! There are a good selection of Pasta’s to choice from, you can even choose small, regular or large size meal. If you like a little spice, ask for the chilli oil. Make sure to include the garlic bread! And if you haven’t tried their brownie, you are missing out! There are few tables if you wish to enjoy your food there or simply do a takeaway! Service is pretty fast, but trust me, have a little patience because the fresh food is worth the wait! Sylvia and Cristiano are the kindest people! Beautiful place ran by beautiful people. For all those who love good hearty food, you need to visit!!

As a Sicilian, I was hoping for a good experience. The staff were very pleasant, the food not so much. Poorly made and tasted awful. Over cooked gnocchi that was clearly reheated and tough. Drinks not as described. Bread stale and tasteless. The complimentary olives you receive as soon as you arrive, pretty grim. Avoid.
