Cálida bienvenida acompañada de un almuerzo italiano memorable. Fuimos aquí por casualidad y no nos decepcionó. El restaurante está situado por una pequeña pasarela que es visitado por muchos fans de Ted Lasso y una caída constante de los pies de turistas y lugareños. El Tiramisu fue una delicia absoluta para terminar una gran comida. Espero volver pronto. (Jim, Hilary & Chloe)

Wonderful restaurant in the most adorable area of Richmond. We were traveling for our anniversary and are big Ted Lasso fans and were delighted to find this quaint restaurant selling Ted’s biscuits! What a delicious little treat and fun part of our experience while enjoying Richmond!

Small place in the heart of Richmond with very successful reinterpretations of some great Sardinian and Italian classics. We tried the fregola with truffle and the zozzona (carbonara amatriciana mix) both very good as well as a Sardinian thousand leaves, also revisited and really excellent, all accompanied by their myrtle sprits and the excellent service of the guys in the room. Recommended if you pass through Richmond!!!🤩

Weird-lots of good reviews so thought we were going to be in for a treat! Very friendly, wine great, menu very Italian, good so far. Hints and echos of what could be good traditional food but missed the mark by too much twill not risk visiting again. Bruschetta: has to be made with the best tomatoes and if they are not in season, don’t bother putting on menu. Tomatoes were anaemic, probably from Holland! Melanzane Parmigiana: almost okay but cheese was more like that in a Domino’s pizza, not quite right. Spaghetti Carbonara: far too heavy, stodgy and super salty. This should be a thing of lightness and balance of taste. The bacon is salty so you must use Pecorino to balance the saltiness. You should not use a Domino’s stringy heavy cheese! Could go on but can’t be bothered.

I shared a fabulous lunch here on Sunday with my dad. The staff made us feel really welcome and couldn’t do enough for us. The food was delicious, especially the chicken casserole and the zucchini starter. We ended up staying far too long as we were having such a lovely time. Thank you all for making our day so special.

After struggling to find somewhere to eat by looking on Tripadvisor as there’s so much choice in Richmond. We left a pub around the corner and walked past this gorgeous little restaurant. We could smell the food and it drew us in. After looking at the menu we could see a table for 2 and asked if we could have it. We didn’t think we’d be able to get in without reserving but the waiter was really helpful and sat us down. It’s such a lovely small restaurant so it felt intimate, the food was insanely good. Highly recommend the special Gnocchi!! The aubergine starter is also delicious. All in all it was reasonable for its location, busy, a nice atmosphere served with tasty food. Highly recommend!

Just to a warning to people visiting Richmond if they are Ted Lasso fans. This establishment is selling “Ted’s Biscuits” in a pink box. Assuming it was an establishment that could bake, I bought them. Reality is they bought a packet of shortbread in a supermarket and put them in a box for five pounds. Save your money. The bag with “eat like Ted” cost 70p. As a side note real fans who’ve watched the show know Ted didn’t eat the biscuits. If you’re going to do a scam do a bit of research and do it right

My wife and I had lunch here with a close friend. Not eaten in Richmond before and liked the look of the place as viewed on Trip Adviser. It was a very good choice. We are Italian food lovers and here, there are new dishes to savour, as it specialises in food of Sardinian origin that we have not seen on other Italian venues. So, we all had at least one dish that was of that variety and we agreed that all the food was delicious. Small but well chosen and priced wine list and friendly informative staff. Situated in a small paved street, it is intimate on the ground floor, but has a larger dining area one flight up. Very attractive and welcoming. The small kitchen is visible through half swing doors and the food is patently cooked with love and attention. If in Richmond again, we would certainly return

A Delightful Lunch at L' Assaggino We had a wonderful lunch at L' Assaggino in Richmond, and it was an experience worth sharing. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a charming Italian touch that made me feel right at home. We ordered the malloreddus with mushrooms and fregola with prawns, caprino and truffle, and it was a beautifully balanced dish—rich, comforting, and full of depth. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the mushrooms added an earthy richness that complemented the dish wonderfully. To finish, I indulged in the millefoglie dessert, which was an absolute delight. The twist with pane carasau arranged in a stylish way, with creamy and honey were a perfect combination—light, yet indulgent. A special mention to Manolo, who was a fantastic host—warm, attentive, and passionate about the food and service. His hospitality made the experience even more enjoyable. The combination of delicious food, great ambiance, and excellent service makes L' Assaggino a place we’d happily return to. Highly recommended! Thank you!

I had the most incredible birthday dinner at L’Assaggino Richmond, and I can’t recommend it enough! From the warm and welcoming staff to the authentic Sardinian cuisine, everything was perfect. We started with Parmigiana di Melanzane and Gamberi Piccanti—both bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. For mains, we had the Ravioli Scampi e Bufala, a stunning combination of langoustine and buffalo mozzarella in a spicy cherry tomato sauce with a touch of lemon zest, and the Fregola Gamberi e Tartufo, a rich and decadent dish of artisan Sardinian pasta with king prawns, goat cheese, tomato, and black truffle cream—simply unforgettable. Desserts were just as spectacular. The handmade tiramisu was light and creamy, while the Mirto Pannacotta was a perfect balance of sweetness and the unique aroma of Sardinia’s famous myrtle liqueur. We paired everything with a bottle of Argiolas Vermentino Costamolino, a crisp and refreshing white wine that complemented the meal beautifully. The service was exceptional, making my birthday truly special. If you’re looking for authentic Sardinian flavors, expertly prepared dishes, and a fantastic dining experience, L’Assaggino Richmond is a must-visit!

My friends from the US decided to visit this place because of a show they watched on TV and idk personally, I think it is craaaazy how much money they charge for what i'm 99% sure is just a walkers shortbread that you can buy from tescos etc. Now that's not to say this is on my friends for paying that much for shortbread biscuits - but as a local myself, seeing a local place rip off tourists like that, is quite sad.

I’m really sorry to leave a bad review but I had booked this restaurant for my friend’s 50th birthday. I had requested the best table in the restaurant. When I turned up, they looked surprised for my booking for 4 people and had to scramble to put two tables together. If that wasn’t bad enough, it took 30 minutes to even get tap water let alone place an order for a drink. The restaurant was cold and draughty. Food was okay, although my friend did not get the dish she ordered. She had changed her order but the waiter said ‘you changed so many things’, so it was uncomfortable when she was asked if she wanted a replacement dish, probably would have taken forever to arrive anyway, so want worth the bother

I used to be a regular customer of the restaurant for two consecutive years as I used to live in Richmond. Last year I moved to central London and still I kept visiting the restaurant for twice a month, sometimes with my fiancée as we used to enjoy the food and atmosphere there. Today, the same waiter who used to serve us (curly hair) turned out to be very rude & aggressive as they changed the menu and he didn’t explain to me that they included a different type of pasta that I usually order as a sea food. I was surprised that it wasn’t what I was expecting and it looked like risotto, I asked him kindly that I wasn’t aware but his response was so aggressive (even the chef was shocked). He continued to tell me that he doesn’t have the time to deal with customers like me who only come twice and month, order one dish and water and no wine (seems it’s main source of revenue for him) I told him this is not a kind attitude towards a regular customer who visited the place regularly and recommended other people to come. He went on to force me to leave and said he doesn’t care and me not coming again isn’t gonna make any difference to his revenue. This is a very bad customer service and the worst I’ve seen for ages, especially for someone who was always a loyal customer. Clearly a waiter who isn’t aware of the business risk the owner has to take to establish his name and someone who prioritises profit over customer satisfaction and good treatment can’t go any far. Also, there are many restaurants in the area that provide better food & service and surely can’t survive too long with this attitude.

Booked for New Years Eve. The restaurant is lovely and the team so friendly. The food that we had was delicious but the service was lacking. We didn’t receive any side dishes we ordered and even after asking about them twice, they didn’t arrive. One side dish came eventually but by that time we’d finished our mains. We were offered free deserts to make up for it but only one of our party wanted one. Unfortunately when the bill arrived, we had been charged for it but didn’t realise until after we had paid!!! We will try the restaurant again as it was really nice otherwise and we’re hoping the poor service was a one off.

Had a lovely dinner at this quaint restaurant in Kew. Friendly service, food was delicious I had the special pasta with Italian sausage and porcini mushrooms. My wife had the lamb ragu. Both dishes were delicious. For starters I have the spicy prawns (spice was 2 max) so not too hot for those who might wonder about the heat. The other starter was a bruschetta with burrata on top one of their specials. Rocket and Parmesan salad was fresh, right amount of oil and salt. Gavi was a nice choice. I would recommend and will come back

L’Assaggino – A Taste of Italy in Richmond L’Assaggino in Richmond delivers a truly delightful Italian dining experience, one that feels like a little corner of Italy right here in the UK. From the moment you walk in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere sets the stage for an authentic meal. The service is exceptional — our server spoke fluent Italian, adding an extra layer of authenticity and charm to the experience. They made us feel genuinely cared for, and their knowledge of the menu only enhanced the evening. The highlight, of course, was the pasta. It was clear that the pasta was freshly made in-house, with that unmistakable texture and flavor that only comes from true craftsmanship. Every dish was bursting with rich, balanced flavors — from the perfect al dente bite of the pasta to the expertly seasoned sauces. Each bite reminded me of meals I’ve had in Italy, and that’s no small feat. The attention to detail in both the service and the food made the experience stand out. Whether you’re seeking a casual yet refined meal or simply craving authentic Italian cuisine, L’Assaggino is a must-visit. I’ll certainly be returning to savor more of their delicious offerings. Highly recommended!

We booked a table of 7 for a 70th birthday. 1) they got the time of the booking wrong, which meant people were going to be late to the booking. 2) when we got there they only had a table for four, and so we had to cancel our dinner. They gave a lame apology of 'oh, next time we'll try better.' 3) when we complained they were rude and really didn't give a damn. We went to the restaurant 'Sebastian's' just around the corner instead. They were much kinder, squeezed us in on a Saturday night, and we had a tasty meal there instead.

So it had an excellent atmosphere. I would whole heartedly recommend this for a great night out with friends. Though I would imagine booking in advance is required as there is limited space. Our bill for 2 was around £55 per head.

Top Sardinia restaurant, simply a genuine gem :) If you are Sardinian, you’ll love this place! I’ve never had any great Sardinian dishes in London until I found this! Their home made pasta is simply delicious, especially the coffee one!! Yes, you’ve heard me! But the signature dish of this place is their Sardinian Mille Foglie made with pane carasau! It’s something in between Seadas, Aranzada, pardulas and cannolo siciliano!! This is a treat for your palate and soul! “Una vera coccola” that makes you travel back home if you close your eyes! Not kidding!! The tiramisu was so big I couldn’t believe it! The place is super cute and romantic and the staff simply looks after you as they do in Sardinia! You really feel at home! And any dish can be modified as they are freshly prepared. Grazie ragazzi to have made our 10th wedding anniversary lunch so cosy and simply special :) A presto :) I hope to remember the name of the guy who looked after us, Manolo? I hope I remember well!

We decided as the day was warm and sunny to eat outside, a great idea as it offers a great local vibe, with lots of people to watch. We were seated and offered water along with our menu.

Noticed this restaurant on our way to the Ted Lasso store as they had the pink boxes of biscuits inspired by Ted Lasso advertised in the window. We were initially looking to eat at The Prince’s Head, the pub featured in the show, but they turned us away as we didn’t have a reservation. So we wandered back to L’assaggino who had open seating at the time and seated us quickly. The waiter gave us some recommendations on refreshing spritz and appetizers to enjoy on the hot day. The limoncello spritz was a bit strong for me but loved the aperol spritz! We had the bruschetta for our starter which came with some complementary olives to snack on while we waited for our pasta dishes which were great. I had the mango sorbet for dessert which was perfect on the hot day. Before we left we got the pink box biscuits to go which we enjoyed later in the day and were so buttery delicious! Would def recommend stopping by here for a meal during your visit to Richmond.

This looks like a stereotypical family-run Italian bistro, boasting less than ten tables. The food being eaten by others smells and looks authentic and tasty. However, this is not the reason for visiting. We are here today because this restaurant is next door to the location of Ted Lasso's house in the TV series and supplied the famous shortbread that Ted cooked in the TV series. Today you can buy it for yourself. £10 for five pieces of shortbread in a pink cardboard box, what a bargain!

Highly recommend L’assaggino! They catered to all our needs for a special event with a large group of us. The food was delicious and the staff were absolutely wonderful.

It's not easy to leave reviews like this, but you have to be honest. As an Italian, negative experience, bland pasta and small portions in terms of quantity and condiments. Sin

Went for some Ted lasso biscuits for my dad cost £9.90 and turns out it is just basic shortbread that you can get for 1 pound from b&m. Complete waste of money basically a scam.

Hot pasta dishes were warm at best, parts were cold. No seasoning so quite bland. I’ve cooked better fresh pasta at home. Not worth the money as missing very simple and key components to running a restaurant.

Four of us ate here this evening 20th July. Lovely simply laid out restaurant, creating a holiday feels with great atmosphere. The menu is pleasingly small but perfect, just the right amount of choices for starters and main courses which allows the chef to concentrate on creating beautiful and very tasty food. The service from the three ladies is exemplary and all very reasonably priced. We will definitely be coming back.

Tucked away in the historic Paved Court, a picturesque flagstone lined lane a stone’s throw from Richmond Green. Unaffected interior snuggled on a tight footprint goes large on charm, ambience and ease. Sardinian inspired fare - pasta based - is bound to delight with an insightful intimate familiarity and aplomb evident here. Delicious food. Limited vegan options. Service engaging, attentive and savvy. An historic Llliputian setting delivers a surplus of superlatives. So darn good.

A gorgeous little spot for drinks and a bite to eat. We ordered wine and starters. Natalia was super helpful and friendly. We asked to sit outside and she brought us the menus straight away and also suggested a blanket. The food was delicious and a good choice of wine. Excellent value for money and brilliant friendly service. Wish we'd had longer so we could have stayed for a main meal as the menu looked good. Natalia was brilliant.

Me and my partner on a recent trip to Richmond stumbled across this tiny Italian bistro and we were welcomed into the restaurant with open arms by the waiter. He found us a cute little table upstairs and left us to browse the menu. This place is small and dainty with a wonderful feel and ambience and that just makes you feel relaxed. The food itself was superb, I opted for the pulled lamb and green pasta it was exceptional, my partner had the carbonara, this was so tasty and creamy. All in all, brilliant experience, great food reasonably priced. We look forward to visiting again!

Good place to have a light dinner with a nice ambiance. I visited this restaurant without realizing it’s on the street where “Ted Lasso” was filmed. Many people stopped to take photos at the main entrance. The food was excellent, with good portions and great flavor.

Stopped in for the “eat like Ted” cookies (which were incredible btw). I saw how amazing the food looked! I had to come back for dinner! The food was amazing! Probably one of the best Italian dishes I’ve ever had. I wish I didn’t live in Maryland because I would be a regular! Highly recommend!!

What a little gem of a restaurant, first class food and first class service, will definitely return when we're back in the area, unless they can move to Greenwich

We had lunch here on a Thursday, it was surprisingly busy but that's because the food and service are so good. Would definitely recommend.

The host is lovely. Very warm and welcoming. However our server forgot to bring our garlic bread out before our pizzas so comped that and both myself and my friends pizzas had too much sauce on so we're very wet and sloppy. It's a shame as had a lovely salad there previously. Def better pizza places in Teddington.

Fabulosa comida y ambiente. Fuimos muy bienvenidos. Podría haber sido una triste ocasión para un velatorio, pero resultó ser excelente.
