L'esterno del locale, con sala da pranzo a vista, fa venire veramente voglia di entrare. Poprio per l'ambiente così' carino, visto da fuori, volevamo provarlo a cena ma siamo riusciti ad andare solo l'ultimo giorno a pranzo, dopo la visita ai vicinissimi Museo di Storia Naturale e Victoria and Albert Museum. Abbiamo fatto presente di aver poco tempo, a causa del volo aereo imminente: sono stati cortesi, ancorché indaffarati, e velocissimi, nonostante il locale fosse pieno. Decisiva la presenza italiana, che si avverte in sala. Buona la cucina. La prossima volta a Londra torneremo senz'altro a cena, per gustare i piatti con più calma. Bravi.

Stopped at Orsini Ristorante to have a break plus coffee and a cake. As they were busy at about 3.00pm., I asked if we could have coffee and a cake and sit outside as it was busy. No problem and we really appreciated their understanding, the coffee was excellent and the cake was good too. Lovely staff.

Found this great little restaurant entirely by accident, directly opposite the V and A museum, and it will be somewhere we will definitely go back to. Friendly, quirky and with great food. Choosing was difficult because the menu choices sounded fantastic and had several of my favourites. The look of the other diners plates was very inviting. A very generous antipasto was followed by a really delicious squid ink tagliolini with plenty of seafood and exactly the right amount of chilli. Then we tried their amazing ice cream and sorbet . Diners nearby were tucking into delicious looking desserts too. Very Happy diners and seemed to be a lot of regulars. A regular who arrived and was seated next to us knew what he wanted. A large helping of crisp calamari was very quickly polished off by him before he started on a delicious smellling Carbonara. Great coffee too. A fantastic end to a lovely day.

I found Orsini by chance a few years ago, and booked again during a recent weekend break. This is an unpretentious little place here the loudspeaker for the place.I had one of the best parmagiana ever to start, while my lady hard a simple cypress salad. Mains were largely pasta and risotto, but I chose Collette which were done in a tomato sauce. Mrs G picked lasagne we shared a bote a d a choice pudding. Excellent service...highly recommended.

We stay regularly at the hotel next door, and were interested to try this place. It is simple in décor and modestly priced, but you get a big friendly welcome. The other diners when we were there on a quiet Sunday night were mostly regulars/locals or Italian, so a good sign. Apparently it is very busy on Friday and Saturday nights, so booking is probably a good idea then. The menu is quite straightforward, there are homemade pasta dishes, and some chicken and seafood mostly..... but I still found it hard to choose as so many of the dishes sounded good. The white wine (house) was very nice and a good price, especially considering the location. They also have some lovely homemade puddings. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. We will return.

Had a Saturday night dinner in this place. While going I was a bit puzzled. The restaurant was not accepting online bookings, which is a bit strange for London. Once there, the atmosphere was not very cosy. The place was quite noisy, so we did not expect much from the whole experience. However, as soon as the food started to arrive, we were pleasantly surprised. High-quality dishes, very well presented and very Italian. Service was also at a very good level. Would recommend the restaurant for its quality of food, but not very much for its atmosphere.

We enjoyed a delicious evening meal at Orsinis while staying at my favourite London hotel next door. We both chose risotto that evening, al funghi porcini (mushrooms) and gamberoni e zafferano (tiger prawns). Both were equally good. Organic white wine was perfect to this. Dessert was yummy tiramisu served in a glass, very like one I remember having in Rome. Even on a Monday evening the ristorante was full, recommend booking a table in advance. Looking forward to our next visit!

Orsini was recommended by friends to try on our recent visit to London. Orsini is a small restaurant and has a good menu. The menu is everything you would expect from an Italian restaurant. Unfortunately on the night we went they were out of several dishes we attempted to order. the items that we did order were good. Nothing overly exciting but definitely solid.

Piccolo ristorante con personale molto cordiale e attento sia il personale italiano che quello inglese. Ottimi i piatti. Consiglio la zuppa di pesce napoletana. Veramente gustosa. Non ho dato il punteggio pieno per due motivi: avevamo il posto vicino alla porta di ingresso rotta che nn si chiudeva completamente lasciando passare aria gelida e la pasta alla carbonara era buona ma non si può chiamare alla carbonara se si mette il Gongorzola. Se evitare il posto vicino alla porta e la carbonara ve lo consiglio vivamente

Came here for lunch with a friend after visiting the V &A.; Friend ordered leak & potato soup and I had pasta carbonara. The soup was the consistency of mashed potato. Plate could have been turned upside down and ‘soup’ would have remained in plate. My friend complained and reply was it’s very good soup taste it. Unfortunately it tasted worse than mashed potato, dull and bland. Served with boring simple white bread, no butter.

We all had pudding which were hard to choose as they were all so tempting. I would definitely recommend this family run restaurant

So many Americans still think it’s difficult to find great food in London at a reasonable price! Orsini in South Kensington proves them wrong. This unassuming Italian restaurant (close to the Victoria and Albert Museum), serves great dishes, lovingly prepared and served by a charming team all working to provide a great experience for their clients. They have a Super Tuscan red wine that is to die for. We ate the spaghetti, the penne Arabiatta, and the rockets salad. All the dishes being served looked great. This is a small restaurant so it’s a good idea to have reservations. Don’t be fooled by the low prices; this is quality gourmet food and lovely presentation. I honestly think they should raise their prices. It’s that good! And their food commands greater tribute. We will return tonight!

While it’s called a restaurant and located in Knightsbridge, it is more of a cafe than a restaurant. We booked while we driving by and it looked alright from the outside. But the tables were very small and cramped for room. The owner was very welcoming. Apart from one other seasoned waiter, who checked up on us and finally got us what we ordered the rest of the staff were running around like headless chucks not knowing what they are doing. We had to ask 3 different waiters for the sauce that we ordered before we received it. We wanted to try 6 different pastas in smaller portions but we were it was not possible due to the size of the kitchen. This should give you some idea of the size of the cafe (not a restaurant) that we are talking about. Food was good as you would expect any good Italian family owned restaurant. £10 per glass of Burchino was pretty expensive for the caliber of the place. I believe that they may have a huge rent to pay and it would have to come from somewhere. I have travelled around the world and been to many Italian restaurants and in my opinion, there are many others deserve a 2nd visit than Orisini. They could improve their service by checking on their customers and delivering what they require as most customers would be willing to compromise on the ambiance if the food and service were good enough. I hope this helps.

Buon ristorante con cucina italiana, i ristoratori sono di origini campane e si vede perché le pietanze sono gustosissime ed artigianali. Gustosissimo il sugo fatto con pomodorini freschi e la mozzarella di bufala impanata. Nulla da dire anche sul personale, gentilissimo e professionale, una nota di merito per Domiziana che ci ha servito con una dolcezza infinita. Unico tasto dolente è il prezzo medio alto non per tutte le tasche ma una volta ogni tanto se si vuole cibo di qualità ci si può anche concedere qualche strappo alla regola.

Any time I can get tolerable gluten-free pasta, I rejoice, but the home-made pasta at Orsini's was the best I ever had. These days, most gluten-free pasta taste OK, but the texture is unsatisfying. The pasta at Orsini's was as good as any regular pasta. I had the Spaghetti Carbonara and was overjoyed at the taste & texture. Orsini's is known for their house-made pasta and the rest of my party thoroughly enjoyed their pasta dishes as well, including the gnocchi. The only downside - some staff didn't show up for work so the 2 waiters were really stretched. They did the best they could, but service was a tad slow. Otherwise the waiter was really accommodating and offered to give me a free dessert because it took so long to bring the sugar for my after-meal tea.

Me and my friend went there last night and I have to say it was a great surprise. The food was authentic Italian cuisine and I could eat it every day! The service matched the quality of food ... our waiter was brilliant - help us to choose, very attentive even we were bit misbehaving after a few drinks somewhere else :) I had spaghetti with mixed seafood, cherry tomatoes and chilli. My friend had tagliatelle with clams and white wine sauce. Pasta is home made! We also tried a bruschetta and berries cheesecake. Giving 5 star and will go back anytime ⭐️ well done to the chef! Also worth mentioning about their proper Italian wine list

My mother and I went for lunch before going to an exhibition at the V & A. We were taken upstairs then ignored whilst the waiter poured wine and chatted to another table. He then pointed to a table for two and said here ok. Which it was. He proceeded to go up and down the stairs a few times. We then had to ask for menus. Eventually he came to take our order. We waited 10 minutes before the bottle of prosecco arrived then ended up waiting an hour for our food. I had to go and ask how long it was going to be as we needed to leave for 2.30. Food arrived hot and flavourful but we had to eat fast and pay the bill. We didn’t leave a gratuity as the service was extremely poor. I have had the pleasure of owning a restaurant and if my staff were like that with customers they would not be in a customer facing roll! I expect polite attentive service not to feel like an inconvenience or forgotten about. Poor!

The meals are well balanced flavors that are light and delightful. The red sauce is so smooth and wonderful, and is grandmother's secret. Casual atmosphere with the focus on the food. Good location. Have gone twice in 2 days for the food.

Good food and service with moderate prices. Daily specials are a highlight. So good we went back two nights later. Friendly owner or manager was quick to remember us - always a good sign.

This restaurant was authentic with great portions and a great flavour! Inexpensive, considering the location, and a perfect pre-event meal. The staff were friendly and attentive. The decor was simple but cosy and the general feel was of family! The house wine was fab. On the down side the menu wasn’t vast but I find that less the choice equals better flavour and I wasn’t disappointed!

My first visit here about two years ago wasn't great but i decided to give it the benefit of the doubt. Two of us for dinner after the Dior Exhibition at the V&A.; Orsini is very close and just across the road. We shared a pomodoro bruschetta and had respectively tagliatelle bolognese and the squid ink taglione with seafood. Both delicious and generous portions. The service was attentive and humorous and the place was buzzing after 8 on a Friday night. I'll definitely go back.

Orsini is near the Rembrandt Hotel. Food and service are average. Grab a quick bite on the way to a show.

Found this little gem 20 meter down the street from our hotel (Rembrandt). Well worth a visit. Layout is simple and it is not a fancy restaurant. Having a strong family feeling; good food and great/friendly service. In the end of the course we were introduced to a platter of chees that they wanted to test and they didn't charge us for that. I will go back any day for another visit.

This restaurant was very close to where we were staying. It came with no recommendation but looking in from the outside, it always seemed full which is usually a good recommendation.

Though well-located, this small restaurant disappointed in the taste and temperature of the food. We only tried it once, so perhaps judgement should be reserved.

Nous nous sommes arrêtés par hasard avant notre visite au musée d’histoire naturelle. Quelle chance d’être tombé sur ce petit restaurant italien qui mérite vraiment le détour!

Definitely a good idea to get reservations. After being turned away from other Italian restaurants the day prior, we were finally smart enough to make them here and a good thing. Super busy place and very good service considering. With my family of 4 we had a large variety of starters and main dishes. We had absolutely no complaints. From bruschetta, calamari, carbonara, a derp fried breaded chicken with potatoes and several different wines. Portion size was perfect when compared with the very reasonable price. Staff was super friendly. I highly recommend it.

The food is fantastic - get the cacio pepe, the veal chop, burrata, canneloni- you can’t go wrong. A restaurant full of locals who love the place for the homemade pasta and great service. One of my fa
