It is summer time over here in Notting Hill. Popped in this amazing Italian dreamland and went for some tagliatelle burrata and pomodorini, a simple but absolutely delicious dish which is perfect for the warm weather. I sat outside, enjoying the delightful atmosphere which recalls me Italian trattorias. Anyone is so nice and welcoming. Well done! Definitely recommended.

Truly a gem in Notting Hill. Food and service are top notch but the VIBE is the best in there. Run by its owners and real Italian staff in the kitchen. Great Live music on the weekends too and great cocktails. You don't find this kind of places in London that easily anymore.

Don’t understand how this restaurant got such good reviews. The “Greek salad” came with wilted lettuce! The waitress said it was soggy and brown looking because of the balsamic vinegar which shouldn’t be used in a Greek salad. There was no bruschetta available as there was no bread. Also no WiFI as the password wasn’t working! Not a great experience at all.

BEYOND rude. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel like we were a burden. We had been told on the phone when we made the booking that we could stay for longer than the 2h allocated time seeing as this was our 4th time. When we sat down the waitress made us out to be liars which instantly put a sour taste in our mouths. The food was average, staff ignorant and we will not be returning nor would I recommend this restaurant to anyone! ONLY positive was that the singer was amazing.

A great Italian restaurant in the bustling Portbello Road district. The food was exceptional and the restaurant really vibrant. The pizzas and pastas were great. Perhaps I went on a busy day, but they struggled to manage the orders and people were complaining about waiting a long time for simple drink and food orders. I guess this happens when a place is bustling. I will definitely go back but on a quieter mid week day.

Skönt att komma in från en livlig Portobello road Market med trängsel och mycket folk. Sitta ner en stund och njuta av en god lunch. Uteserveringen var full så vi fick sitta inomhus, lite tråkigt då det var fint väder, men ganska skönt ändå. Solen tittade in på oss genom glasfönstret. Bra service och en god pastarätt.

I'm writing this review as the whole experience of booking a table is a joke! It took several phone calls and several emails which went unanswered for almost 3 weeks to book a table for a group of 9. After finally receiving confirmation, the restaurant called me a month later to cancel my booking as they 'forgot' they had already reserved the whole restaurant for a private booking. When I challenged the manager about the process and asked if it was standard practice to answer customers after 2 1/2 weeks she simply said 'we get a lot of emails'. We are now having to find somewhere fun to eat just before Christmas which is proving a challenge!

Over priced for a very basic Italian restaurant. Food acceptable but the restaurant lacks any atmosphere. We had bread and olive starters and no alcohol, no dessert and bill still came to £125 for 4 every ordinary pasta dishes. I came here before when it was a Swedish restaurant (was better then). It feels like they just stuck the "Italian" on the end of the name as the demand for Swedish food clearly less than Italian but the food needs to be better and cheaper or I don't see this place hanging around very long. So much rubbish food on Portobello nowadays. trying to attract the tourists, can't believe I fell for it being a local.

Location is perfect and the hostess and security guard were a delight. They owner or manager was so personable and helpful. Our server brought the wrong meal, and then fixed it. No problem. But at the end we waited 30 minutes for one dessert and watched as the restaurant morphed from a restaurant to a club. I think she forgot we were there? As people were lining up to get in we were subjected to them standing all around our table and smoking, which quickly switched the vibe from a romantic dinner to hurrying to leave. Food: bread was not fresh, pasta was! Ceviche was perfect. Never got that dessert :(

Underwhelming describes our experience of Lisa’s food and service. Neither were awful but likewise neither were anything special. A busy Saturday lunchtime in Ladbroke Grove saw our adult family venture into Lisa’s Italian restaurant. Given a high-table by the window, the first challenge was to scale the banquet seating… could have done with a leg up … and I’m average height! The restaurant filled around us and the atmosphere was nice. Our waiters were attentive, drinks arrived promptly (although the carafe of table water needed a quick reminder). Not a complicated order - gnocchi, 3 pizzas and a quinoa salad but for some bizarre reason every table around us, all of whom came in after us, received their order before we did - normally we wouldn’t notice but we were irrationally hungry. And to add to our despair, the hangriest of our party didn’t received his pizza until we had all finished our food! Pizzas - okay but I’m not going to write home about them. Gnocchi ditto. And here is where this review takes the tumble from an average 3 to an underwhelming 2 - weighing in at £14 the quinoa salad was at best paltry and I would even go so far as describing as pathetic in size and content. I only wish I’d taken a picture of the side-salad sized offering … preferably next to a pound coin for scale!!! You’ll have to make do with this close up and take my word for it! I think the recipe went like this… Take one small bowl Add 1) a teacup of quinoa 2) a piccola misura of rocket 3) ditto cherry tomatoes, olives & cucumber 4) and finally a suggestion of cubed feta. 5) and a sneeze of balsamic dressing! Having inhaled the salad in a few mouthful, it was decided that the food stalls outside would be our next port of call! So all in all, pizzas were… okay. Gnocchi was … okay. Quinoa salad was pathetic. Service was efficient. Timing was not great. £120 for 5 people including a bottle of house white (including a charge for service which is a pet hate of mine but I didn’t have the energy to ask them to take it off!) would have been fine if the food had been value for money - which in this day and age is key. Will we return…. No but it’s a tourist trap so I’m sure they won’t go out of business

Lisa’s is one of those inconspicuous slightly hidden restaurant gems where nothing on the menu seems over the top, yet every dish is done with love, care and attention to finshing details. And if you’re lucky enough to come in the live music evenings, you’re in for a treat. Probably the most endearing place in Portobello Road.

Was really looking forward to this place as it's one of my friend's favourites - but was ultimately disappointed by the very loud live music which was overpowering as soon as I walked in and throughout our time there. My friend and I had to lean forward and shout to each other, and repeatedly ask what the other said as it made it so hard to have a conversation! For a small, intimate space the volume should be adjusted accordingly...it was distracting rather than enjoyable or relaxing. Quite dark, could've benefited from candles on tables perhaps. Lacked warmth. Moving onto the food, I was just disappointed. When we ordered the bread I assumed it would arrive hot/toasted or at least a little warm, but it was cold (I should've asked, in hindsight) and when my pasta came out it was cold on the outside and lukewarm towards the middle, and quite chewy, as if it'd been sitting for a while. I didn't want to raise an issue and wait for a replacement as I was so very hungry. However the service was lovely and the drinks were well made. Had high standards as a few other restaurants I've been to in the area were amazing. Would like to come back and try something else as maybe it was a one off, but will not be rushing to.

Ate here at tables outside;during the week they do a set lunch for £10 Monday to Friday. It’s a simple set lunch of salad or bruschetta followed by chicken or pasta of the day which was gnocchi with tomato and cheese sauce and was the best gnocchi I’d eaten ever. Friendly service -very relaxed -would highly recommend.

So, check what time the business opens on a Sunday. On Google it states 12pm. I walk past at 12.30 and it’s still not open. I saw a man walk towards the door and get turned away. He told me they open in 10/15 minutes. I walked through portobello with my son and wasted my time. Please if it doesn’t open at 12 then don’t advertise it as doing so.
