Such a gem in the midst of Soho’s chaos. Great atmosphere and amazing staff. We each had a pasta dish as we were not starving and shared a dessert between two people. Portions are a little on the smaller side but they will explain that to you upon arrival so no worries. Truffle pasta was the highlight of our table and the limoncello spritz was a very nice appetizer

Terribly uncomfortable evening sat downstairs at Lina Stores Soho. The downstairs room is extremely loud, and very cramped and hot because they’ve crammed as many seats as they possibly could down there. The staff barely have enough room to move around and are constantly having to physically squeeze past the back of chairs, making it super uncomfortable for both them and their customers. It was so loud that we struggled to hear one another at our table and for the majority of the hour we spent there, we could not speak to each other. The staff were inaudible at one stage. It was the least relaxing atmosphere possible and very hard to enjoy the meal and drinks with the chaotic feel of the place. I left with pain in my ears and feeling quite overwhelmed. Such a shame because the pasta although overpriced was really great. If you are booking to come here, I would strongly recommend sitting upstairs at the bar as downstairs is so loud and chaotic.

Friendly waiters and fast service. Also very tasty food. I ordered ravioli with cheese, it was very tasty, delicious . So I ordered a caramel tart, it was too sweet for me, but it would be great if eaten with coffee or tea.

I've been wanting to come here for some time and I would strongly suggest to book a table if you wish to try this place. I straight away didn't like the attitude of any of the staff, none seemed particularly bothered or friendly, it created straight away an unpleasant vibe. It's a very narrow and busy space, upstairs as well as downstairs which can be cozy or stressfull, here it's the latter. We've rdered the Burrata and Gnudi (which were not hot but still tasty) to start, followed by some pasta with lamb ragu and prawns, all to share. The pasta was very nice although the sauce was lacking a tiny bit of seasoning. We've never been asked if we wanted another drink or how our food was, I was missing some fresh pepper and parmesan for example. The plates were cleared and we were told the table is booked again in 15min, that was 1h15min into us sitting down. We quickly ordered a scoop of ice cream and were then again reminded we have to leave. We quickly paid and were rushed to go. Purely for the awful service (not one smile) and rushed dinner I was very upset with this experience. It was an unpleasant evening and I would not come back. I've had a lot of delicious and fresh pasta in my life and this place should not feel so cocky and put some more effort in the rest of it. It's a money making machine without the hospitality you'd get in Italy

Lina stores is well worth a visit, not just for the gorgeous food but for the hospitality of the staff. I had a funny turn in the restaurant and was taken care of by Lisa so so SO well. I could not thank her enough for putting me on a chair, having me drink water and giving me a cold cloth. Eventually we went outside for fresh air. She made me feel safe and calm during what could have been a scary event. Lina stores are very lucky to have Lisa 😀

It was a surprise from my spouse for my birthday, and it was truly a perfect choice. The staff were very friendly, and the food was equally delicious. We ordered the Tagliolini al Tartufo, which was the best pasta we’ve ever had; the taste is still on our minds. After the pasta, we ordered desserts, and our order came with a surprise—since it was my birthday, they also served us ice cream with our sweet treat. We tried Cannolo Siciliano for the first time, and it was delightful. The tiramisu was also quite good. The place was very charming.

The famous Italian deli has expanded into restaurants. This one on Greek St is small and buzzy. Friendly and efficient service. Simple menu with antipasti and pasta classics. Delicious with simple ingredients. Pasta dishes are moderately sized and cooked al dente. Good prices for West End. Two people with starters (fried artichokes and carpaccio) and pasta (burrata ravioli in yummy tomato sauce + spaghetti with courgettes) plus two beers and a non-alcoholic cocktail came to 70GBP.

This was such a great meal in Soho before a bight out and it was decently priced. The pasta was so fresh and flavorful. The focaccia is a must order as well as the Prosecco. We sat downstairs and it was a great vibe. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food is great, so definitely worth the visit.

Never been before so didn’t know what to expect. We had booked and were shown to our table by a very professional receptionist. It was busy downstairs but the staff were excellent, attentive and unobtrusive. We had forcaccia, burratta, gnudi, artichokes, followed by crab linguine, truffle paparadelle, chocolate mousse, lemon sorbet and pistachio ice cream. The food was excellent as was the ambience. Nothing was too much trouble even down to charging our phone. Definitely returning .

Main comment is portion size. We had the agnolotti. We received just 4 pieces covering a tiny part of the plate. My friend queried whether we'd been given a starter rather than a main but the waitress just said that it was a main and, yes it was a small portion and we were welcome to order more dishes! Tasted nice, but we were starving later on. Other dishes looked better in terms of portion size.

Very small restaurant and cramped seating. It was so loud in there, tables for larger groups were too loud if youre in a table of two can barely have a conversation. Wasnt a pleasant place to have a nice dinner/catch up with a friend or have a date night. Atmosphere really lets it down as the food was wonderful. And staff were nice. Nothing out of the ordinary in service but pleasant enough. Would suggest getting a takeaway instead and eat in the square nearby in summer to avoid the noise. Don't think I'll return to eat at the restaurant

They change the menu (I guess based on the season) however u can always find great and different selection (also vegetarian). They also offer some appetisers and small plates to share before the main, I would definitely suggest to try the Focaccia 🙌🏽 For dessert, you cannot leave without have tried the cannolo siciliano, trust me, u won’t regret it! 🤤 Super and friendly staff, the waiting time if u don’t book can vary depending on the day u visit.

It's a pretty unique concept - food court inside an old church. We arrived right after their opening time, so it wasn't really busy. Plenty of tables were available. Some of them were reserved for big parties. They have 3 level of foods varies from oysters bar, beef burger, pasta, asian cuisines, gelato, alcohol drinks, etc... basically, you would easily to find anything to eat here. We ordered a ramen bowl, Thai egg fried rice with prawn and chicken, and Pad Thai prawn. Honestly, we didn't like the food here, but the ambiance was nice. There was staff coming to take your bowl away after you finished. I was very satisfied with the matcha drinks here and gelato. I highly recommend to try the matcha lemonade (original and yuzu with ginger flavor).
