Pane Cunzato - Pizza & more in Camden

The restaurant has its own charm, the decoration is special but fits the overall ambience. The service was very quick and courteous. The portions are definitely big enough. Had the calzone and the spaghetti with pistachio pesto.

Food was very tasty, only during desert we were looked out the door because there were people waiting outside. Under the guise of the table being reserved, so let's go. Too bad

I'm from Sicily so, I can tell The food is very nice Good service And not expensive I will go back soon

Best pizza is london, great service and amazing atmosphere.

A nice place, good food and fast serve.

Good cosy Sicilian place in Fitzrovia. We had lunch after museum. Decor very welcoming , service is attentive. Food is good, solid. Pasta dishes were delicious. I felt caponata was missing some caper flavours but was good. Tiramisu was excellent. We enjoyed the experience.

I really recommend this restaurant. The setting is very nice, and the servers are warm. It was 9 p.m., and there were eight of us: they welcomed us without hesitation and gave us a great reception.

We came across this little restaurant while in area. Food really good be warned pizzas are hugh couldn't eat all mine. A large choice on menu lots of vegetarian options. Staff are friendly but felt a bit rushed.

Very tasty Sicilian food in a nice atmosphere with cool music and nice waiters. Service is really fast and efficient. Bravi!

Everything was delicious, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Recommended especially for Italians who want to feel the flavors of home.

Everything was excellent, always a pleasure to come back

Great place to eat real Italian food! Honest prices. We'll be back as soon as we can!

Came here last night with some colleague. Nice atmosphere, delicious food and didn't feel rushed to leave. Friendly staff. My steak was cooked perfectly and your Tiramasu is a 10 out of 10

Excellent Italian cuisine and super hospitality. Advised

Perfect service, delicious food, great ambience. Not a noble Italian

we had been top an exhibition at the British museum and it was time for lunch. We liked the look of the menu, and also the fact it is an independent Italian not part of a chain. I had the mixed fried seafood which had plenty o batter and was quite filling but it was also tasty. I also had a peperonata side dish of roasted peppers as the fried seafood did not come with vegetables, Our desserts were a cassata and a semi freddo both very tasty . We also had sparkling water for two and two cappuccinos. Service was friendly, we did not need to wait a long time and price was very reasonable

We found this Italian restaurant by chance and I highly recommend it. Friendly staff and good food (for being in London), average prices, not excessive. I recommend the tagliatella with meat sauce, the garlic focaccia and the almond semifreddo. Even the coffee is like ours.

Tasty and crunchy pizza dough with quality ingredients

Nice place to relax and get a bite.

Not authentic Italian food! We were really disappointed with the meal, as it lacked authenticity. Everything was drenched in olive oil, making each bite excessively greasy. We found ourselves drinking a lot of water to compensate. The pizza was far too thin and overly oily—we had to use napkins to soak up the excess oil. The ham selection was also disappointing, worse than what you’d find at a supermarket like Tesco. Although the staff was friendly and polite, the food itself was far from genuine Italian cuisine.

Cinque stelle meritate. Un’ottimo ristorante di cucina italiana, per la precisione siciliana, nel centro di Londra vicino al British Museum. Pasta ottima cotta al dente, anche gli arancini veramente buoni. Buono il servizio cortese e con i giusti tempi. Non ha molti coperti per cui consiglio di prenotare.

“As a Sicilian, I would not recommend this place at all. The food wasn’t great—the arancini didn’t taste like authentic arancini, the pizza was very thin and burnt, and the pasta was sticky and dry. Apart from the lovely atmosphere, I wouldn’t recommend it.”

Buona pizza, pasta e insalatona. Se avete voglia o necessità di mangiare italiano è una buona soluzione. Non ci siamo addentrati nello specifico ma la pizza Margherita e una semplice pasta in bianco per nostro figlio hanno risolto una cena all'ultimo minuto. Gentilissimo il personale 🥰 ci hanno coccolati e accomodati anche senza prenotazione. Parlano tutti italiano!!! Grazie, ci siamo sentiti a casa.

As an Italian: good food and very kind staff! Surprised

We love the menu at this restaurant. Fresh pasta and it seems anything with eggplant is exceptional. Great service. Make a reservation; you don't want to be disappointed.

Wonderful place to eat a special Italian food! Highly recommended!

Lovely little oasis away from the hustle & bustle. Lunch was great and the staff were all lovely

Wonderful little restaurant for a late lunch before a show. Food and atmosphere were brilliant. Well priced too. The Pane Cunzato pizza-like toasted sandwich was delicious and to be recommended!

Total catfish, not a single Italian on staff, staff service is fine but they clearly don’t want to be there, food quality is supermarket level. Really quite disappointing for the price.

Good restaurant. I liked the setting and our table. The staff speaks Italian

The pizza is excellent: thin and fragrant. Nice atmosphere and very good service. Very good for London

Fried calamari a little dry and tough.

After days of eating terrible food finally a place where you can eat Italian.

Everything amazing! We were 14 persons and they satisfy all our desires. A true italian restaurant in London. Surely we will come again.

Great food, very tasty & very reasonably priced. Excellent service & lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Very nice place inside, welcoming and romantic atmosphere, very good food, you can recognize fresh ingredients and a good knowledge of Italian tradition. To return! Impeccable and super friendly service

Positive experience, true Italian cuisine, excellent food quality, impeccable service. The place is very intimate and well furnished, we will return next time we return to London. Fettuccine with ragù excellently cooked. Good bread

Dinner for two, very fast service and excellent service. Every time we went there was room, they treated us very well, and they brought us the food very quickly. Everything was very good, especially the Pecorino. The pizzas are very good. Recommended location.

We had a reservation, but there was no table available inside so we took the seat outside. But yesterday it was quite windy, I don’t think it’s possible for us to eat outside. The pizza just flew onto my face. Not to mention the platter. So the waitress came over and ask me “ Do you need any tissue?” I was so speechless cuz i don’t think some tissue can fix the problem. On our request, we changed the table. And soon we realize the food is not our taste. Before the lunch we are quite starving, ready for a big meal. But we cannot finish half the food.(Not to mention 1/4 of the food is flew away) I think it is quite obvious we don’t like the food here. However, when paying the bill, when I was asked how do I like the food, I was quite shocked. Speechless again. She tried to explain to me the meat on the pizza is not “ham” as I expected, that’s why I cannot appreciate it. Whatever meat it is, it’s NOT tasty. It could be our different taste( But my friend used to work in a Italian restaurant). But you are asking our opinion, isn’t it? And you are trying to persuade me and tell me my feeling is wrong? Also my opinion is quite self-evident with those unfinished food. There are much better Italian restaurants in London. Honestly, I like the environment. They got beautiful plates here. But really bad experience.Instead of being told that I placed the wrong order, I’d rather you tell me I chose the wrong restaurant.

Charming Sicilian restaurant. Excellent food. Warm friendly Italian vibe. The indoor seating looks cozy and we opted for outdoor seating on a vibrant street. Perfect for lunch and we imagine for pre theater. The owner is actually Italian and she says the recipes are inspired by her grandmother. We love it and will be back. Tip: start with the Pane appetizer. I loved the calamari.y husband couldn’t decide on desserts so ordered several and all are memorable. We really liked the Sicilian wine.

With Ruben, friendly, efficient and welcoming

Small charming restaurant, with delicious Italian food, for a while it was like moving to Italy. The staff was very nice, they treated us with great humor. Good atmosphere and acceptable quality-price ratio. We were pleasantly surprised, I recommend it 100%

Exquisite dinner in a welcoming location...romantic..enchanting..typically Italian, with the genuine flavors of our beloved Sicily, tasty and delicious dishes.....excellent service. The top in London for those who want to eat really well. ..

This place is really nice, because from the outside it looks like London, but inside it's an old Italian restaurant. When your plate arrives you want to eat all the things that food looks like, but when you eat it it's very delicious. When you enter it looks like practically all of Italy.

A stone's throw from the British Museum, a small Italian restaurant that really deserves…

A small piece of Italy a stone's throw from the British Museum....excellent lunch...excellent pizza and excellent beer....top of the children's menu is pizza or ragù ragù + ice cream!!! What can I say...SATISFIED WITH THE EXPERIENCE

Good food, pleasant staff, reasonable price, pleasant setting

All very good!! They cook really well and the welcome is spectacular, everyone is very kind. Very very recommended.

True Italianness. We discovered this place by chance, a stone's throw from the British Museum. It immediately made a good impression on us, confirmed by the food and service. Top place, very kind staff and quality Italian food. The owner, Italian, was super friendly and professional. Fair bill and proportionate to the quality of the service offered. Highly recommended!

A small restaurant with a unique atmosphere. Excellent food, attentive service and great attention to detail. We will definitely come back :)

Clean rooms, excellent food, friendly staff, I'll be back!!!!!

I loved the beer. The food was good too.

The food was delicious! I got the courgette flowers and the parmigiana pane cunzato and I love it. Service was over the top! Too kind!

Rubel is an exceptional meter of great hospitality and professionalism. We eat very well

We loved the restaurant and the food. Typical Sicilian food. Very friendly employees. The decoration of the restaurant a 10. Decorated with great taste.

I had been in this restaurant a few years ago and loved it. Unfortunately after going yesterday I was quite disappointed with my food. I know Carbonara is not originally from Sicily but the pasta was still uncooked (I like al dente but this was too much for me) and swimming in an egg soup with bacon which wasnt crispy at all.. very disappointing from an italian restaurant. My friend ordered a Pistacchio pizza, which was very salty with not enough condiments on it. Even though the atmosphere was very relaxing and the staff was very friendly and nice, I'm not sure I would go to visit again.

If you are Sicilian skip this place (I am Sicilian)! On the picture you see the “pane cunzato” that gives the name to this restaurant.. what you get is a an unleavened dough, hard and half raw, with a slice of eggplant and some cheese of dubious origin. It was meant to be filled with “parmigiana” but it was completely empty, with a single slice of eggplant that was tasting of nothing. I had my partner taste it and he couldn’t understand what it was.. totally disappointing! As a starter we got caponata and burrata, which was slightly better but with no oil, no salt, no pepper, not even a single leaf of basil.. we paid almost 80 pound to eat tasteless food on “plastic plates”! My partner had the most expensive pasta dish with pistachio and shrimps, that were frozen of course (I told him not to order them but he still wanted to try them).. Lastly, we ordered a pistachio tiramisu, which was basically a normal tiramisu with chopped pistachios on top, so it tasted as a normal tiramisu and we paid it more of course… pistachio tiramisu should be made with pistachio cream and not with coffee.. I read other reviews made by Italians and I don’t really get their 5 star enthusiasm. From their pictures, you already see that the pizza this place sells is more of a flatbread. The pane cunzato is not bread, but made of the same hard pizza base.. they talk about italian atmosphere when there was not a single italian staff member. guys if you want to eat italian (sicilian) and good, go elsewhere! The location was also nothing special, you eat on plastic plates and the tables are fast food style. Never again!

Rubel was fantastic. Service was top notch!

July 2024 Italian restaurant run by Italians Good pizza and desserts, good coffee too. Advised

Well designed space, beautiful decor which feels very authentic Nice and attentive waitress and staff, we had a reservation via TheFork App which got us a 30% discount Pasta was good but a bit too salty in my opinion (had the carbonara) Other attendees had the sausage pasta and pistachio pesto and said it was good too

Pizza was epically portioned and thoroughly delicious. Lightly crispy, delicious pizza dust, and gorgeous toppings. With an excellent accompaniment of beverages. Will return ASAP.

I was able to try some arancine as appetisers, which were much smaller than the original Sicilian ones and served with cream. The Pane Cunzato visible in the photo is the classic one, but I had some olive oil brought in to add it to taste. It was good but not as good as the original both in terms of the bread dough (crunchier here) and the contents (missing the primo sale cheese). Finally, the coffee with cream and pistachio on top was very good. Courteous staff, very well decorated restaurant, classical Italian music at a decent volume.

I had the pleasure of having lunch at this restaurant during my holiday in London. I recommend it to all those who want to try the typical delicacies of Italy. Excellent pizza. Very friendly and helpful person

Even though we had a 30% discount reservation through The Fork application, they stated that they would not apply the discount because we did not choose from the main menu. We could not receive service and the discount approved in the application was not applied. A business where customer satisfaction is not a priority.

Such a lovely small restaurant. Great decor. Good service and very tasty food.

Small but welcoming place, a stone's throw from the British Museum and with Italian dishes. Pasta, pizza and more. Children's menu. Competitive prices especially compared to the quality. The pizza was really good, the girls liked the pasta and they were very courteous. Recommend if you are in the area!

A small corner of Lipari with attention to detail and excellent hospitality. Alicudi cunzato bread must be eaten! Nice atmosphere and lunch like in Italy!

I was a month ago with some friends, we ate delicious pizzas, genuine ingredients and excellent pizza cooking, impeccable service, I returned alone on Thursday and I must say that Mrs. Valentina's welcome was very kind because she recognized me after this time, real Italian cuisine and kindness of all the staff... ask for the Tiramisu, delicious!!

Nice place, excellent food, very welcoming staff,owner is very kind,

Amazing supplies/arancino Pizza had great taste Great service

Valentina and the staff are really super welcoming! We Italians felt at home, with a capital C. Impeccable service, as well as the dishes, very varied and exceptional! 5/5 star value for money. Thanks for the experience and see you next time. Highly recommended!

Such a cosy and welcoming Italian restaurant with a great choice of authentic food and a lovely atmosphere. The pizza was huge and large servings of pasta too! Will definitely be back and will be recommending.

To be short: amazing, kind service and flawless food. Went as a party of 8 to finish off a bachelorette party. I tried looking for other restaurants for large group bookings but many only allowed set menus for large groups. However, this restaurant allowed great freedom for everyone to order what they wanted, and just individual portions rather than pushing for more larger sharing plates. We also asked to bring in an external cake which was taken care of swiftly; the servers looked so excited to help out to make a special dinner. We forgot the candles but they even provided us with one! The plates and interior were all unique and had a cosy yet creative touch! The food had great portion sized, came out promptly, and was perfectly seasoned - pasta al dente, pizza nice and thin. Thank you so much for creating an unforgettable night for us all!

I have been tens of times in this place, it's always delicious. The staff is very kind and professional. Highly recommended 👌

Eating truly Italian with ITALIAN raw materials and then cunzato bread, a Sicilian delicacy here in London, a pleasure. Well done and congratulations, in spite of the fake Italian food found in London!!

Top Sicilian flavours. Friendly staff.

Delicious Sicilian food, friendly and quick service, perfect lunch stop before visiting the British Museum.

Tasteless pasta and not fully cooked. Bad service and no understanding that it didn't taste good. No Italians running the place. Very expensive, no charm, bad service and not worth the visit.

Pistachio tiramisu better than in Italy.. a marvel of service and food

A nice piece of Italy, right next to Covent Garden. Staff is really friendly and the food is superb, authentic, from the Sicilian traditions. The owners are indeed Sicilians and show the love for their business. Highly recommended.

Very good value for money. Nice sicilian restaurant. As Italian and Sicilian, I would say that the quality is there. I felt full with a "Mortadella", otherwise, I would have tried more things. Clean bathroom. The only suggestion is that the arancine resembles taste, but not worth it.

Very nice place, great food, very friendly staff.

I’m Sicilian and try me: it a really amazing tradition Sicilian food. High quality of product, food very tasty and gorgeous!!!! Perfect location near British museum, the place is decorated and presented very elegant and attention to details. Customer service is best; the owner makes you feel at home with kindness and good manner. I got pizza calzone, arancini and I’ll go late for a pane cunzato take away. Love this place!!!! One of the best REAL AUTENTIC Italian place!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing little place with happy and friendly staff!! We tried many of the different dishes and 2 different pizzas in our group ! The calzones are massive and didnt see on till we where done eating or I would have ordered one.. so the pictures of them aren't exaggerated! Lucky happenstance for American Rednecks on a rainy day after the British Museum!

Good Italian restaurant with a cozy atmosphere

Small but very nice place, attentive and professional staff

A really beautiful place!! We found this very welcoming restaurant here in London, with delightful staff and the food… what can I say spectacular!! From cunzato bread to pasta!! Everything delicious! The first time we eat like at home and we are Sicilians!! Highly recommended!

The cacio e pepe was incredible. The portions are a little small but the price and flavour more than make up for it. The menu was small but everything looked and smelled really good. Had to wave the staff down to get any attention so ordering took a lot longer than I thought. Still a good experience, very worth going if you want a light lunch and some drinks.

I absolutely recommend lunch or dinner at this restaurant as an Italian and Sicilian.EVERYTHING EXCELLENT!

Beautiful restaurant decorated with beautiful details. Very good staff attention. Excellent food and reasonably priced

I'm an American and still experiencing things for the first time here. However, the food IMHO was bland. Little or no seasoning. And the person in my party who received the gluten free crust pizza said it was inedible. Wouldn't recommend.

The food was nice but not the best. It may have just been my pizza but it was horrible to cut up and when I finally cut it up, it all fell apart when I picked it up. It tasted delicious though and the staff were incredible, the decorations and furniture were nice and the toilets were clean.

A true Italian corner in central London. Delicious food, very nice owner. We had a really good time and will definitely be back.

Excellent venue Good food Ruben, the owner is very kind It's like feeling at home Excellent pizza

Really good food, sicilian are the best in the kitchen. Atmosphere is amazing, a lot of pictures of Sicily on the walls, nice to remeber.

Amazing place , food, staff, best Italian in London

Good Sicilian restaurant. Pizza was perfect, the waitresses were very friendly and the espresso was excellent.

It is a pretty place. The pasta we ate were delicious and the staff were very friendly! I recommend.

Very high quality and kindness of the products. Highly recommended!

Enchanting place. Impeccable service. And the food is delicious! The pizzas are amazing. Thin and crispy!! Super recommended
