Thought I’d write a review since this place wasn’t open last week when I wanted to eat there and really hope it opens again soon. I’ve been coming here for six years ever since I moved to the area with friends, my partner or even just by myself. My friends and I love it as a down to earth, independent Italian restaurant with fair prices - so hard to come by these days. Their food is great - pizza, pasta, crunchy Ceaser salad and nice house red too. I love the semi-old school decor. I threw a bday party here on a Friday evening once and service was amazing for such a large table.

Surprised that it is under new management. So not as homely as it has been, nonetheless still a place to go to. Menu remains much the same as does the wine list. However, the profiteroles have gone and will remain a happy memory. So pudding list not much to shout home about. Unless the profiteroles are restored. Staff still friendly though. Go and eat and try.

Mythical, typical Italian cuisine, all delicious, from pizza to dessert passing through the first and second courses. Prices as great as their dishes.

As we arrived they were playing‘Congratulations’ at ear splitting level, really silly especially with young children present. Not much has changed with the new owners, they still have the boat! Food was ok, prices are higher, a pizza is now relatively expensive compared to other places. Service was friendly enough, the free olives were a nice touch but not enough of them for 4 people…. The Calzone wasn’t as good as before, maybe a slightly different pizza dough, it was a bit soggy. Wouldn’t rush to order that again.

Since this restaurant has changed ownership, the new forchetta has become one of my favourite restaurant in the area, I can surely say that the quality of the food has changed (in a better way) accompanied by a great customer service. Keep going like this ! For sure I will come back, and I recommend to everyone to give it a try! Cannot wait to go back there ;)

Super Italian food (we had spaghetti carbonara and pizza) . My son said it was the best carbonara he’s had and he’s had quite a few. We were served by Sabah, who was courteous and polite, but also showed he had a sense of humour - even in these trying times! Good luck in these challenging times.

This is a lovely little local restaurant. We took visiting family members for lunch and everyone enjoyed their meals, which ranged from simple pizzas to risotto and steak. The food was piping hot and hard to finish because the portions were so generous! The staff were all lovely, offered us a really warm welcome and even gave us an extra large portion of cake to share to make up for the fact that a couple of items from the dessert menu were out of stock.

Mi esposa y yo hemos estado yendo a este restaurante durante 33 años, en los primeros días se llamaba Pizza 1 Pancake. 2 personas del East End lo recordarán de esos días en los 80. Traemos a nuestras hijas y socios y hemos presentado a muchos amigos a este restaurante y siguen volviendo y eso debe decir algo. Recomiendo encarecidamente este restaurante italiano, ya que hay una gran variedad de comida y bebida a precios muy competitivos. Aunque los precios son baratos en comparación con otros restaurantes italianos, la comida es de primera calidad y el personal es muy amable. Un restaurante italiano fantástico que es asequible para todos los bolsillos.Gary, uno de los verdaderos EastEnders que aún vive en la mansión, disfruta.

Mi esposo y su hijo ordenaron el Brie frito con salsa de arándanos y ambos acordaron que estaba delicioso. Tuve morralla con ensalada y salsa tártara. Una gran porción para un aperitivo y estaban cocinados a la perfección.Para los platos principales maridito tenía espagueti a la boloñesa y tuve el linguini de mariscos que tenía un montón de mariscos. Ambos deliciosos. El hijo tenía una pizza de 4 quesos que era grande, agradable corteza fina y un montón de queso. Las bebidas eran una cola y una cerveza Moretti y la factura total era de 54. Agregaron un 12. 5% de cargo por servicio que no entendí porque el servicio había sido rápido y con una sonrisa.Definitivamente visitaré de nuevo.

I was staying at a hotel 5 minutes walk away from the restaurant so I thought I would give it a go. I ended up going there everyday afterwards!

Been here a few times, all times with family and it’s been a very nice experience with nice food, however my wallet has always felt quite a but lighter afterwards. Yes the food was nice (when nit smothered in cheese - you can actually ask for food without cheese), but it is a tad pricey. Desserts are also yummy and the staff very friendly. Worth a visit if you’re in the area.

I have arrived at the place a little after 4pm so I could not have the lunch dealsI have chosen the set meal where you choose a first and main course (4 choices each) and a desert Overall the food was good but nothing special I had the staffed mushrooms for first course which was ok. I had the Milano pizza which was good (very big for one person) and the panacotta desert which was not good Overall with a gift drink it cost about 18 pounds

Been living in London for 7 months now and this is by far the worst meal I have had. Who knows what mysterious animal was in the sandwich served to me? Only one thing is sure - it had a sad life and did not deserve this fate.The bun was surprisingly stale, having been stored in the fridge and still cold to touch. The owner also decided to add an additional 2 pound charge at the end, for lettuce and tomato. Both of which were days past their best.I implore every individual to not rob themselves of a nicer lunch – and try any other local establishment. Especially during the working week, where there is so much amazing food with markets on. Heck even the Pret across the road would be better.

Went with my sons just before a comedy evening and found the pizzas very good and the service very attentive. Would definitely go back

I come here maybe once every few months, i wish it was more often. I have only visited in the day for lunch and the place is quiet. Don't let that put you off as it is not a sign that things are not well! We have ordered food here in advance for small parties and they get nothing wrong. Yesterday we turned up with party of 5 and ordered from the menu. We had main meals and some of us chose the main and soft drink deal which is good. Fantastic choice of pasta, seafood, rice dishes, salads. I have eaten the seafood pasta several times and it is as good as anything in a top seafood eatery. The portions are huge and lovingly crafted. Every time we order the dishes they are presented slightly differently and maybe the odd ingredient has been missed off or substituted but that is fine, it is always great. They don't skimp on ingredients. Staff friendly and fun and enjoy banter. Decor is a bit jaded but I always feel that i am on holiday and it is about as far away from Bethnal Green's grubby high street as you can get. I really feel transported to the Mediterranean. I bet it is a real destination in the evenings, some tasteful live music would be great addition or maybe some nice piped music. Please support this jewel in the rough. Great value if you are hungry and food feels fresh and home cooked to order. Not sure the hygiene rating though and this is a minor worry but it all looks clean enough and I've never had upset stomach after a visit. Huge pizza, huge plated salads and pastas.

La pasta é veramente buona. Diverse opzioni. Veramente consigliata.Per quanto riguarda la pizza ho chiesto una pizza con " mozzarella buffalo" é arrivata una normale margherita con 4 pezzi piccolissimi di mozzarella cruda sopra la margherita.E qui non sorride nessuno.

Went here one lunchtime in August when visiting London. The place had no-one in as it had just opened for the day but took a gamble and was impressed. Lovely food at a reasonable price, coffee was nice too.

I was in the neighbourhood any way, looking for something to eat. Was first om my way to the McD, till I stumbled on this place. It looks cavernous, and dark, but since I came for something to eat, I didnt really care.I took the lasagna, which was delicious and pine apple juice, which tasted great. Really a nice place for a quick bite with friendly staff.

Al dente perfection made with love, this is that rarest of gems in London where the food is made with love and you can taste it a huge space with retro70's decor there is a reason this place is still open they serve really good food at rodiculously low price if you are a hipster looking for the latest thing forget it but if you have eaten in Italy you will immediately love this gem a family run restaurant where the food is made with love and the pasta is al dente I think you can judge Italian food by their carbonara A bad one is terrible but a good one is hard to make and delightful the carbonara here is YUM! So if you fancy feeling like your tastebuds have taken a mini break to Italy without the price tag then this is the place or if you have kids there is plenty of space for them to entertain themselves with food they should lovea hidden gem unless you are a prententious hipster though even then this place may win you over with its retro charm and friendly stFf

Este restaurante es imprescindible si estás en Bethnal Green o el este de Londres. Realmente es una pequeña joya escondida que es tan diferente de la zona. A menudo comer aquí porque me encanta el ambiente en el interior. Desde el interior se siente como en Italia desde el interior y la familia un cordial servicio de atención al cliente. He leído comentarios sobre los precios caros pero como 25 años con poco ingresos me pareció que los precios en consonancia con los precios de Londres. 10 libras por un plato principal, que incluye las patatas y verduras a un lado y las porciones son muy generosas. Quizás es sólo yo ? Pero preferiría dar 10 libras para mantener un negocio de familia viva que £15 a un restaurante de cadena, que casi no necesita ayuda para sobrevivir. De todos modos, es romántico ya que a menudo comer aquí con mi novio y le gusta las opciones de carne en el menú. He comido la comida vegetariana y opciones de pescado y ambos eran extremadamente sabroso.

Not being veggie I was dragged along with a couple of friends who are. I thought the food was rather good and did't miss my meat at all. I agree with some of the other reviews that a couple of the dished could have had a few more herbs thrown in, but they still tasted nice.

So following on from the discriminatory reception from the well known il Bordello restaurant nearby, we decided to try a different Italian restaurant, one not as well known except to the locals of Wapping or well reviewed but I am so grateful we found this place. It is genuinely a little gem situated opposite Tobacco Dock. There are old ships sitting in a dry dock so the view outside is pretty cool. We walked in and were immediately warmly welcomed and seated at our table. The people on the adjoining table were locals and mentioned how good the food was so that was very reassuring. We ordered from the starter menu the gamberoni e rucola (pan fried prawns, garlic chilli), cornetto di salmone (avocado and prawn mousse wrapped in smoked salmon) and burrata (with ham on a bed of rocket with a sweet glaze) All of which were exquisite. Mains consisted of a lobster linguine and a fettuccine al salmone. The lobster was unfortunately a tad over cooked but was bursting with flavour and the linguine and all its sauce was worth licking the plate for. The fettuccine my partner had was so rich and creamy I was in heaven with the taste I had. Desserts; just a tiramisu. It was so light and delicate but packed with flavour. Drinks consisted of a couple of rum swizzles and a mojito. If you like your tropical pineapple and coconut flavours then this is the one for you. I even took one to go. The mojito was very nice but just needed a tad more sugar for my palate. I also ordered an extra pizza to take away cos I had such a good time and loved the food so much. Portion sizes were very healthy, not American size but definitely substantial Service was brilliant. It got a bit busy halfway through our meal with lots of groups and families dining but we felt cared for and appreciated for our custom. Staff saw us out after we finished eating with smiles and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place.
