I went in while shopping for Vivienne Westwood's World's End. When I asked a silly question like, ``Are the napkins on the table meant to be worn around the neck to prevent the sauce from spilling (actually, they were used to wrap the forks and knives that I brought)?'' You can just wipe it,'' he replied kindly. I ordered pasta, and of course it was delicious. I paid my bill and left the store, but I needed to use the restroom, so I came back and said, ``Can I borrow your restroom?'' and they kindly gave it to me. I thought it was a good store.

Proper old fashioned Italian which we used for coffee and apple pie as a stop on a long walk. The apple pie was excellent - just enough cinnamon to add a twist without overwhelming everything as would be often the case. Came with good ice cream too. Good atmosphere as well.

As a long-time patron of Mona Lisa Café, I recently decided to revisit after a hiatus. To my disappointment, I found that the prices had skyrocketed since my last visit. Previously, I used to enjoy a hearty breakfast for a reasonable price, but now a standard breakfast costs nearly £16, a hike of over 30 per cent. What was a fantastic three-course lunch deal for £11.99 has now inflated to over £20. I understand businesses have bills and overheads to cover, but these price increases seem excessive. While the food quality remains good, and the staff are as pleasant as ever, I couldn't help but notice that the café was unusually empty during my visit. The price hike seems to have driven away many of the regular patrons. Unfortunately, as much as I enjoy the food and appreciate the staff, I won't be returning to Mona Lisa Café. The recent price increases have made it too expensive to justify.

the photos you have are not from the Mona Lisa in Chelsea ? The mona lisa cafe has been feeding the comunity of Chelsea for over 40 years it has not yet gone back the old opening times so please check first but good food at an affordable cost is what has made it so popular with Locals and you never know who you will see in there i have seen Eric Clapton and Lenny Kravits and no one bats an eye its so easy going and the staff are always helpfull and kind Thats why 4 generations of my Family come here all the time my Granson first came when he was 6 weeks old he is 16 now so if you are looking for Decent food at afordable prices and an great Service give it a go

First time I went in the was 1980. Fantastic place then. Now the place is absolutely rubbish. None of the food items I ordered even tasted like the food I ordered. Everything is pre cooked and then dishes are fired up within minutes. The 1 thing I did notice was that the original waitress from 1980 is still there . She has been promoted to the till. Never again.

Lovely resto, definitely one of the better eateries on this stretch of Kings Road. Family run Italian café, not too far from Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. I tried their mussels provencal and for mains I had roast belly of pork. Awesome lunchtime meal! This mussel dish had light ingredients - fresh tomatoes, black olives, capers, garlic and white wine. The roast belly of pork, slow roasted, had tender and juicy flesh. There was a bit of nice crispy crackling on the side - excellent. Their prices are very decent for top notch quality dishes. I am told that their scrumptious breakfasts are also worth trying.

I ended up having to order another one to fulfil the hunger, but they were both very fresh, warm and full of flavour. Many thanks.

A long time visitor to this cafe. To my dismay the cooking is not a patch on days gone by. And the prices have almost doubled. They are trying to raise the clientele but at the price of the set lunch on the 23rd December they are wide of the mark. £25 for 3 courses. What a loss. And how sad.

Les portions servies pour le petit-déjeuner sont très copieuses. Ça vous permet de tenir sans problème jusqu’au goûter et passer le déjeuner. Pour le déjeuner, le restaurant propose un menu 3 services à petits prix, au environ 15£, et une carte avec quelques plats. Les spécialités maisons sont le foie et quelques plat d’inspiration italienne. J’ai opté pour le menu et ait choisi une assiette de foie a l’italienne qui était vraiment très bon.
