Visiting family in between lockdowns and my sister said to try this place. So glad we did, I’m not usually a fan of pizza but these have changed my mind. Lovely place, staff were great and we left pretty full.

We were just driving thru Bethnal Green looking for a pasta restaurant when we noticed this oneIt was only six o clock but we were surprised such a large unit was empty but we were warmly welcomed and my wife asked for a glass of house red while we chose our mealWhat arrived was a huge glass of full bodied quality wine , one we'd have expected to be on the premium price listThe cheese garlic bread and seared vegetable + mozzarella salad we shared as a starter were delicious and generous portions tooI had the chicken Milanese which was crisply coated in the finest breadcrumbs with a tasty tomato sauce whilst my wife had the a garlic prawn tagliatelle with a few huge grilled king prawns on the top . Another delicious dishWe shared a seemingly home made tiramisu as we were pretty full but it was light and rich and delicious With coffees and a large bottle of mineral water the whole meal for two Inc service was about Sixty Pounds . We couldn't believe how reasonable it was as we've paid close to a hundred pounds for a meal of such high quality elsewhereIf I could find fault the food was served a little too fast . A five minute or more gap between courses would have been niceNext time we venture into East London we'll be returning for sure

To paint the picture I’m still sitting in the restaurant now, another lockdown approaching. I work in hospitality myself and I’m amazed. The service was great when I asked questions they were answered by a human the food was brilliant. The drinks were accommodating and had a lovely time. Thank you very much will be back

Gracias a Daniel por el maravilloso servicio de mesa de hoy. Todos disfrutamos nuestro almuerzo. Los niños pidieron pizzas y yo pedí lubina con verduras y patatas. Esperamos nuestra próxima visita. Mi primera experiencia fue visitar a un maestro de escuela para un viaje de clases, esto fue hace muchos años. Me complació ver que el restaurante aún estaba abierto y lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Esta fue la primera comida que tuvimos después del encierro y estamos encantados de haber elegido La Forchetta. No puedes equivocarte si vas allí. Las porciones eran lo suficientemente grandes, no tienes que añadir nada más, el personal es muy atento y probablemente el restaurante más barato de la zona.Mi esposa y yo comimos Linguini Frutti di Mare y Apollo Milanese acompañados de un delicioso pan de ajo. Sí, definitivamente le damos 5 estrellas de 5. ¡Gracias La Forchetta!

Casi me siento mal por no haberle dado una buena crítica a este lugar, pero hubo algunos problemas.Primero todo lo buenoMuy buen servicio, el personal fue amable y eficiente, el propietario debería sentirse afortunado de tenerlos.La relación calidad-precio era excelente, el vino de la casa era agradable y asequible, y las raciones eran de buen tamaño.La comida era buena, simplemente buena, no genial. Si tienes hijos, les gustará y a cualquiera que sea fácil de complacer le gustará. A mí me hubiera gustado lo siguiente, pasta fresca, o al menos más pasta al dente. un poco de condimento, un poco de sal y más hierbas.Las salsas eran insípidas y la salsa tártara en frascos para mojar en el aperitivo es simplemente perezosa.Volvería y probaría la pizza, pero si eso está bien, probaría en otro lugar.Lo siento, pero así es como me siento.

Porzioni abbondanti ma di mediocre qualità. Personale italiano che deride i clienti ovviamente in lingua italiana. Arredamento orribile e, nonostante a Londra i giorni di grande caldo non siano molti, all’ingresso c’è un ventilatore per dare una parvenza di refrigerio all’ingresso. Esperienza negativa

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.

Visité esta tarde (un miércoles) y estaba bastante vacío. Nuestro hijo se mudó a un alojamiento de Uni cerca de Bethnal Green Road, así que quería algo cerca.El servicio fue rápido. 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.

Ate here on my own whilst down for business as I was staying in the city view hotel around the corner. Food was average for an Italian, I had the cheesy garlic bread to start and carbonara for main, both were ok but I feel it’s a quantity or quality place. I ended up with so much more food than expected that I had to leave half of my main(no complaints on amount of food!).

A locally owned Italian restaurant that really hits the spot. My partner and I moved to Bethnal Green about 4 years ago and we’ve frequented La Forechetta almost monthy, usually for the £7.50 lunchtime special! The portions are huge, the food tasty and the atmosphere is great, nice and relaxed. In my opinion it’s the best Italian in East London and I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Dinner on a Saturday night. The restaurant is fairly big and was about half full. Despite that the old pictures on the wall and the decor give off a good atmosphere. The Carbonara was really good and the Calzone could have fed an army. The Tribbiano house wine was a bit rough but improved with each sip. The service was good and friendly and prices are reasonable

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.

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.

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

First impressions, the decor is so tired and out of date, probably hasn't seen a lick of paint since the 70's. Its such a huge space, it has so much potential but clearly they just can't be bothered. The exterior looks great with the neon's but when you get inside its pretty depressing. The lighting is also odd, not sure if they're trying to save money on bulbs, but its dark, not in a romantic way, more in a store-room of a supermarket kind of way. It feels like its closed.The pizza, completely uninspiring. Huge, soggy base and lacking in flavour. I'd say they have been making it this way for decades and never bothered to research any other way of cooking. It's not a proper stone/wood oven either, a big industrial beast. A smaller version of my oven at home, so I may as well just make my own.It's a shame, been living in the area for years and finally got round to trying it. Would have been nice to have a local go-to! It won't be here.

This place reliably serves great Italian food for surprisingly low prices. Some people don't like that the pizza isn't drowned in cheese or that the "food is too Italian" but I love it!

Excellent restaurant for every kind of occasion! As I'm not living in this area anymore, I didn't go to that restaurant for ages. But I did come back with my family and absolutely loved it as usual.Very generous portion and good quality of italian food will be served. We had 4 fromaggi pizza to start and had all pastas for main courses. The flavour was still in the plates, pasta cooked "aldente" on a big portion (which you can take away if you can't finish it - so no wasting here!).The service was excellent! Very professional, clean and super polite. Not annoying at all, it was a pleasant service in a pleasant italian atmosphere. The decoration is ok - and make you feel that this restaurant is their OWN owner and not a poor chain where the waiter work as a robot and bother you with their "everything is ok?" every 10 mins or are pushing you to finish your plates for us to leave asap to receive new customers, totally boycotting these kind of restaurant tho :/I definitely recommend this restaurant this place. I always went there for the past 6 years and never got disappointed! Well done guys :)A plus : i brought my italian friends there and they said that this is proper italian place to go - feel like you're in Italy.

Locale carino, sicuramente potrebbero rinnovarlo un po', musica italiana in sottofondo, personale italiano e non ma molto gentile, padrone del ristorante sempre sorridente ed ospitale! Cibo buono e tantisssssimo abbondante (preso due primi, come piace agli italiani. Frutto di mare e carbonara). A fine pasto ci hanno offerto anche un ammazza caffè! Carini, abb caro ma nella media londinese, tempi di attesa inesistenti quasi! Consigliato davvero

Wasn't sure when we walked in the place looked a bit in need of renovation but we had checked it out on Trip Advisor. Can honestly say it was an excellent meal, very tasty and lots of it and value for money. Excellent service from very friendly staff, will defiantly recommended.

The food itself was very good and warrants five stars. Also good sized portion. However the service - I felt very pressured to leave in an almost empty restaurant - plus the unwarned about ten percent service charge at the end left a sour taste in my mouth. (If it is in the menu it's in tiny writing)

Visited La Forchetta for lunch on Saturday and it was really nice. We were just looking for something relatively cheap and cheerful and it didn't disappoint! The restaurant was quiet also so service was great!

At the end of May Comicon a group of friends and I found this charming restaurant a couple of hours before our train was due. The waiter, although he spoke very basic English, was courteous and very helpful, offering to store our props while we ate. While the drinks were at 2.50 for a Collins glass, extortionate, the food was so divine I still remember it vividly to this day. From pizza and battered calamari that we shared, to what was the greatest sirloin steak diane for a amazingly low price (especially in London). It was unfortunate we didn't have the time to stick around for longer, because the atmosphere was relaxing and the place looked wonderful with an authentic Italian feel- almost as if you were there.I honestly think I'll remember that meal for a good many years to come, and I make a point to visit again in the near future.

Consigliatissimi pizza e risotto ai funghi(se non ci volete il pepe specificatelo, perché a volte lo mette). Il pesce non sempre dei migliori. Personale abbastanza gentile, soprattutto una ragazza

Nous avons pris des pizzas à emporter lors de notre séjour Londonien.Elles sont grandes et relativement copieuse.Elles sont bonnes mais sans être extraordinaire quoi !Ça ne vaut pas un passage obligatoire , vous ne louperez rien d'extraordinaire mais si vous avez juste besoin d'une pizzas pour un repas alors ce sera très bien !

In una zona terribile dove uscire a piedi è rischioso e i pub chiudono la cucina alle 19, riesci a mangiare una pizza anche a orari più italiani. Locale terribilmente kitch italiano ma ti salva la serata

Quite simply, the food here was spectacular! We enjoyed every last bite. The portions were more than enough, and super tasty. Cooked to perfection. We struggled to finish our meals, but we did purely because it was that good we couldn't stop eating! I had a large house red with dinner, which as a red wine lover, I was pleasantly surprised that it tasted nice! It was a decent red, no vinegary aftertaste, with a lovely oak flavour. Not what I expected for a cheap house wine. Usually a house red is barely palatable - if you're a wine drinker you'll know! The only downside I can say is that I ordered a limoncello to finish off my amazing meal. Unfortunately it was served only slightly chilled. From my experience limoncello is best served straight from the freezer, ice cold. All in all it was a very memorable meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and food here. The best bit being that the whole meal came to less than £40 for 2 mains, 1 starter served as a side and 3 alcoholic drinks (+ water). Bargain! If you ever get the chance, please try this place!

We came across this Italian restaurant by chance, as we were looking for a place to eat fast and easy, having a limited amount of time available. I must say that the service was quite fast, and we managed to finish out meal in 45 minutes, according to our needs.However, the food was absolutely average: an overcooked Risotto and a decent Pizza (although better than many others fake Italian chains), with no presentation whatsoever. Staff (all Italian) were polite, but never came to ask if everything was fine with the meal, and I doubt that some of them could really understand my English.Decor of the restaurant really poor: it is not enough to put some pictures of people eating pasta, to re-create the Italian atmosphere.Decent and at a reasonable price, but nothing special.
