Ristorante con cucina italiana...abbiamo preso bruschette con verdure molto buone sia le verdure che il prosciutto...... tagliata con verdure direi ottima ....buona scelta di vini, pollo alla figa.... non male.... do 4 stelle perché il locale è un po triste... l'apparecchiatura al tavolo minimale, nemmeno una tovaglietta...personale cordiale...

We had dinner here on Saturday August 17. The weather was nice and we were able to sit on the terrace. Helped neatly and quickly and questions were answered clearly, with some humor which gave a more personal feeling. As a starter we had a garlic pizza and bruschetta to share. Main courses were spaghetti, pizza calzone and a pizza with salami. Although we were satisfied, we couldn't resist tiramisu and crème brûlée. Delicious food, and definitely recommended to go to when you are in the area.

We used to come here a lot when we lived at Limehouse. Haven't been for 10 or so years, as we now live in Australia, but it was still fantastic. The Bruschetta is amazing. The menu is so vast it's really hard to decide what to order when you know it's all going to be so tasty.

I had the most delightful experience at this authentic Italian pizzeria in London. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by our server,, whose genuine Italian hospitality made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and reminiscent of a traditional Italian trattoria. The pizza was absolutely incrediblec, thin crust with the perfect balance of toppings. We tried the Margherita and la reine, both of which were bursting with flavor. The ingredients were fresh and high-quality, truly capturing the essence of Italian cuisine. I recommend the raviolis too. The service was exceptional. She was attentive, friendly, and provided great recommendations on both the menu. Her passion for the food and culture added a special touch to our meal. Overall, this pizzeria offers a true taste of Italy in the heart of London. Highly recommend for anyone seeking an authentic Italian dining experience!

Unreal! Absolutely horrendous! Never tasted food like it! In my 37 years of living, I can’t express how bad this was! I have never in my life complained if food wasn’t nice or not to my taste and just paid the bill knowing not to return, but I had to express this here. When I did at each course, I was then spoken about amongst the servers 3/4 times overly loud. They didn’t even have the courtesy to hide the fact that they were talking about table 3 and that they don’t like this or that. GOBSMACKED! One server said “ this isn’t LA it’s the UK” I am from east London and I told her as such! We have a home it Italy and we know real Italian food! I’m guessing the reason they aren’t in their home town cooking their Italian food is because they would have been disowned. AVOID AVOID AVOID! Funnily enough they only charged us for wine and gave us free shots!

Soooo disappointing. The service was good …attentive and friendly. The food was awful. Our starter to share was fried calamari which was tasty but obviously not fresh - frozen/microwave? Our mains were large portions and the salad and veg were fresh and tasty but the lobster was initially the wrong dish as it came with spaghetti which wasn’t the correct order. They replaced it with the correct lobster dish but the lobster was tough and unpleasant and the prawns were drowned in garlic butter. The monkfish dish was overcooked and drowned in a tomato sauce. They offered us a free shot which was nice of them but the quality of the food was not value for money in any way!!!! I certainly wouldn’t return.

We came here for a late dinner after a long day of being typical London tourists and what a wonderful way to cap off our day. My wife got the pasta bolognese. It was expertly cooked with rich, savory flavors, easily the best bolognese we’ve encountered in our travels. I ordered the gnocchi alla sorentina and I was not disappointed. It was perfectly cooked and well worth savoring. For dessert, we got the tiramisu because of course we did. It was perfect. The service was excellent. As touring Americans we are largely clueless about how things work; the staff were gracious and kind without being obsequious. We were not rushed in any way during our dining experience; the staff clearly wanted us to savor and enjoy the food. I would 100% recommend this restaurant, and if we were ever to find ourselves in the vicinity again, I would definitely go back. If you want a delicious Italian meal in the Limehouse area, look no further.

Last visited La Figa in December 2019 and gave it a five star review. Unfortunately I did not find it as good this time. The ravioli was very bland with no flavour at all. The wine list is small and very expensive for what it is. The service was good. It has the elements of a good neighbourhood restaurant but only if the prices are bit lower.

We have been to this restaurant a few times over the last 15 years as our friends lived nearby. Now our daughter lives in Limehouse, so for her birthday dinner, she booked this restaurant. We were booked early - 7pm & arrived on time. We asked for a table near the window which initially seemed an issue as they had only opened some tables. However we insisted & we were sat at a window table - what restaurant doesn’t want a window front with diners, subliminally encouraging others in as it looks popular? The service was quick & drinks arrived quickly. Our daughter enjoyed a strawberry daiquiri & the house white was good. For starter we chose to share a bruschetta with tomatoes & Parma ham- enough for 3. We were all happy with our mains. I chose the seafood linguine and there was an abundance of seafood & the portion was generous. Would we come here again - yes we would.

An absolutely incredible Italian restaurant. A huge selection of amazing food, great service and a nice vibe. It’s a bit of a secret. The decor is quite “modern Italian” but don’t let that put you off, this is one of the best restaurants in London. I have been here multiple times and each time tried something else that is fantastic. The courgette soup, sadly not often on the menu, is truly sensational.

Saturday lunchtime birthday celebration for my son with his wife and 2 young daughters. The staff are lovely, welcoming and helpful, suggesting different dishes to those on the menu and so accommodating. They are genuinely pleased to have little ones in their restaurant. The food was delicious, we shared a selection of starters the whitebait was gorgeous, the bruschetta lovely and fresh but the prawns were not quite what I expected, nice enough but not wow. Our main courses were wonderful. The shellfish linguine one with tomato and one with a garlic sauce were delicious the pizzas were brilliant and the tuna steak with its sauce super. Lovely Chianti and super coffees and ice cream. We couldn’t have asked for more, highly recommended.

Waaay too much garlic!!! To the point where it was overpowering even the chilli. The gamberi (prawns) tasted so salty it was inedible, while the rest of the sauce was salted too little.
