Pentolina in Hammersmith and Fulham

An excellent local restaurant tucked off the beaten track. Excellent food and friendly service in a very pleasant little restaurant. Would certainly return.

This is a neighbourhood gem in Brook Green. A husband and wife run small restaurant delivers a combination of warm and welcoming service with excellent food. I chose well (thank you to the server for his recommendations) with a fresh crab and caramelised tomato pasta and an incredible dairy and gluten free pistachio cake with date sauce that was so light it nearly floated off the plate. A delicious meal in a great environment. Thank you.

Il ristorante si trova a pochi passi da Shepherds Bush in un quartiere molto tranquillo. La sensazione di calore e familiarità che ti avvolge appena entrati nella piccola e deliziosa saletta è impagabile e viene confermata dalla gentilezza, mai falsa ed esagerata,) del personale di sala. Il prodigarsi per far fronte ai problemi di allergia di mia moglie è stato sempre attento e preciso, infatti un primo piatto è stato addirittura adattato alle nostre esigenze. Il cibo è gustoso e curato, con sapori stuzzicanti e veramente degni della migliore cucina italiana. Ci siamo sentiti proprio a casa, coccolati come in famiglia. Complimenti vivissimi!

Ich mag genau solche Orte. Schön hergerichtet aber nicht überdreht, die Speisekarte ambitioniert aber nicht blingbling, der Service in vollem Bewusstsein den Gästen einen tollen Abend zu verschaffen ohne künstliche „Hospitality“. Also - nach einem Negroni ( !) war die Sache sowiso klar. Ich hatte einen Oktopus in einem braunen Sössle als Vorspeise und breite Nudeln mit Wildschweinragout als Hauptgericht. Beides in einer Qualität wie es die Oma auch machen würde- und genau so koche ich auch. Ein schönes Fläschle Wein dazu und alles zu einem Preis der im Rahmen bleibt. Gut, dass wir heimlaufen konnten - zufrieden und glücklich!

A very good Italian restaurant using top quality ingredients & cooking with great care and attention to detail. The pasta is fresh and perfectly cooked. A short menu that somehow covers all the bases and very charming service. Run by husband and wife team who manage to keep the brilliant standards they have set as high as ever. It's the sort of place you try in vain to find when you're in Rome or Milan and yet somehow never do. And here it is in an unassuming street close to Olympia! Five stars!

Accueil souriant, petite salle joliment décorée et agréable terrasse sur une rue calme car peu passante. Plats et entrées de bonne qualité : produits frais, bien préparés, pâtes parfaitement al dente. Bons desserts. Choix de vins au verre limité mais le Puglia est très bon.

Such a superb find in Brook Green, booked at the last minute for my husband’s birthday. Super relaxed ambience with attentive service and wonderful pasta. Perfect combination!

Liten och vänlig restaurang med otroligt bra mat. Vi var två vuxna och en 6åring som åt middag. Fick bra rekommendationer från personalen och så löste de en enkel pastarätt till vår dotter som hon älskade.

The last time I had an Italian meal this good was on the Amalfi coast in Positano Italy!! Truly amazing dishes! From the appetizers to desert! Friendly staff! Warm, cozy and inviting atmosphere! A must go to!

Found Pentolina online whilst researching Restaurants close to Olympia. We were very impressed with every aspect of our experience. Attentive service, good choices on menu, had three courses, wine excellent, lovely bread, good coffee. Would thoroughly recommend, especially if visiting Olympia.

The food is extremely good but the staff are the main asset of this restaurant. I've eaten at Pentolina 3 times, so far, and every time I've been made to think that I was their most important customer. It is a rare skill! I will be coming back again and again. Thank you.

Genuin och synnerligen prisvärd italiensk mat på Londons kanske trevligaste lilla krog. En riktig pärla nära Hammersmith.

A small cosy restaurant serving great food! Nice fresh focaccia, delicious pate and then a perfectly cooked steak and a delicious vegetarian lasagne. Good service, good atmosphere, great food, very nice wine = good value

Have been here twice now and enjoyed both visits. Overall great but the fairly limited menu was the same both times with no specials and the main course portions are on the small side.

Visited on a Thursday evening. Didn't book a table; the restaurant was very busy but we managed to grab the outside table - which was great as it was a warm evening. The waitress quickly cleaned down the previous glasses and plates and wiped down the table - very efficient! We ordered the vegetable soup for starter, served with sliced bread - absolutely delicious. Mains: spaghetti with Cornish Crab; pan-fried Yellow Fin fish fillet served with sliced baked potato and vegetables. Again, delicious. Desert - tiramisu - one of the better ones I've had. Great service considering how busy it was. Sounded likely a real buzz in the restaurant Excellent service and great value at £80 including wine and service Would definitely return

I've only been once before while attending the annual LBF which was finally back after two years post Pando! There were supposed to be three of us here for lunch on the last day of the Fair but the other two couldn't make it and I'm so glad i went on my own. Everything from the friendly, super efficient staff to the bread and pasta is spot on. I even got a smile form the chef as I saw me literally wiping the bowel clean with the last crust. I also love they serve Rose by the glass:) It's a great wee place I so wish was around the corner from me. See you next year!

Absolutely loved this place. Best prosciutto and mozzarella in London,, excellent option to share for a starter and to leave room for gorgeous pappardelle with wild boar ragout - stunning. Sit outside on the pavement, inside if you like bantrous chatter with lively Londoners loving...

The best food in Hammersmith without question. We stopped by for lunch today and it was such a treat. We had the best meal we’ve had in months. For those missing travelling and what European food offers, this is a real treasure. The mind of...

I had a good experience, very good food and great service. Definitely coming back. Lovely place and very clean.

A fine and varied menu - more upscale Italian, yet in a relaxed atmosphere. The place is small and cosy, but not intrusive. The service is pleasant and relaxed (not the typical intrusive and fake "are you doing ok?" commercial service found at many other...

Excellent Italian food in a charming setting. The menu was good value and had some delicious dishes. From the pea veloute, octopus stew and scallops pasta, it was a high standard of cooking. The Tuscan focaccia served at the start was a highlight and the...

This beautiful rustic style Italian is tucked away behind Olympia. We had a superb lunch here on a Saturday. The linguine with fresh lobster and caramelised cherry tomatoes and the pacchen pasta with homemade sausage ragout and aged Sardinian pecorino cheese were both outstanding. Beautifully...

I've been to Pentolina a few times now as I work nearby. Better to give them a call before going as they can get busy. Everything I've tried on the menu was always very good. Service is discreet so perfect for work lunches. Plan on...

Lovely service, wonderful food (approved by the italians at our table), very nice decor and crowd! Highly recommended and definitely a destination in itself!

Love this place! The food is superb, the service attentive but not intrusive and the place lovely decorated. Can’t wait to go back.

I dined here this week for the fourth time in the past three months. Always great service and food and notably a local but serious-food vibe. I started with the grilled octopus, followed by the grilled halibut, coupled with an unfiltered organic white wine from...

Ottimo cibo italiano a partire dal pane fatto in casa!Abbiamo assaggiato la zuppetta di polpo, la ribollita,gli affettati e le orecchiette broccoli e burrata ,tutto buonissimo ! Il mio piatto preferito rimane paccheri con capesante!DA PROVARE!

What a find in Brook Green away from the Hammersmith hustle. This is pure Italian. A perfect neighbourhood restaurant serving up rustic Italian fare in a convivial atmosphere. It was full to busting on Saturday night but not too noisy so you could carry on a conversation. My wife’s halibut and thinly sliced potatoes was simply delicious. And our duck ragout was a pure joy. Tiramisu was the best I’ve had.

What a gem this turned out to be! Excellent and authentic Italian food from a varied menu and all reasonably priced. Impressive wine list too. I had the rabbit with capers and black olives with spinach and mashed potatoes. All cooked to perfection and I am still drooling over the pear and ricotta torta!

Excellent food and wonderful atmosphere at Pentolina! This is such a lovely restaurant to visit in Brook Green and worth the money. I had the duck ragu and it was extremely tasty. The tiramisu is a must-have dessert too. Definitely worth trying if you live in Hammersmith (just a 15 min walk).

A very good dinner with truly Italian ingredients and tastes, from the appetizers (cold cuts, ham and bufala) to the paccheri. I loved the style, the atmosphere the relxed kindness of the whole staff. Not to be missed!

A spectacular Italian restaurant. Quality, execution, service, price/quality ratio, it has got it all! The menu changes frequently which is great for regulars clients. Lunch deal is great value. The food truly transports you to Italy. Exceptional

Booked here for a birthday treat (£16.50 2 course set menu) and were not disappointed with the starters- these were of excellent quality. The mains were a little disappointing; they were not hot and only luke warm on arrival. Still nice though. We would have mentioned it to the staff, who were friendly, but they did not check to see if everything was ok. Would go back but would splash out on the a la carte menu next time!

It matters what you are after- this is not the spot you will impress a girl and have to dodge the elastics of her pants. What you will experience is exceptional service and great food. It feels like the home you aspire to have.

Simply delicious. Tuscan chef with genuine Italian ingredients. Authentic Italian menu - just superb. A hidden gem in Brook Green. For connoisseur.

Excellent food quality, Good menu/wines list, Good service and nice people, Decent prices, Nice and charming little restaurant. 100% recommended for Italian foodies.

Ristorante italiano a Londra. Cibo italiano cucinato da italiani e servito da italiani. Personale gentile e disponibile. Piatti di pasta che potrebbero far concorrenza a molti ristoranti nostrani. Carta dei vini molto buona.

Stopped at Pentolina en route to Hammersmith via Shepherds Bush, after seeing the review online.

Estuve aquí unas cuantas veces cuando visité a mi hija y cada vez que mejoraba el lugar, tres de nosotros con platos diferentes fuimos pulidos, comencé con un plato de coppa con mozzarella seguido de un plato de pasta de ragu, seguido de tiramisú. El lugar está bien gestionado y Guilia nos cuidó muy bien, no te pierdas esta pequeña joya de lugar que puedo garantizarte que estarás encantado

Literalmente descubrimos este lugar fantástico de repente, pero no puedo estar más feliz.

Superb starter, main and dessert - you won’t be disappointed. We visited the restaurant on a Tuesday evening and it was packed so advise to book ahead.

Se avete voglia di mangiare bene e italiano dovete assolutamente provare questo ristorante.. In una zona tranquilla di Londra.. Personale gentile.. Sia carne che pesce. Nulla da aggiungere

Pentolina never disappoints. I took my Italian family over for dinner and everybody enjoyed the food, the wine and the experience. Truly delicious food, welcoming staff and great wine. One of my favourite restaurants in London and lucky it's in my neighbourhood!!

If this is not the best Italian restaurant in London, its not far off. Small and intimate. Ate wonderful Linguine with Cuttlefish! As stated elsewhere the best Tiramisu!

All the positive reviews of this Hammersmith Italian are spot on.The food is delicious. My husband and I both enjoyed the finely sliced ham with mozzarella followed by the perfectly cooked pasta with crab. There is a really warm and welcoming atmosphere with lovely staff and owners who obviously care about their food and patrons. There were all ages at this restaurant and although on a small street in Hammersmith, even if you do not live locally definitely worth coming to. We are so glad we found this restaurant and will definitely return.

I asked a Italian friend who lives in London where to go for authentic and great Italian food in London. The answer: Pentolina. While in London for business I called to see if they could accommodate me for dinner and although the place was fully booked the owner was nice enough to say she would get me in. The restaurant is located in a quiet residential street in Hammersmith and is very small. The menu had great selection from starter, main course and deserts all made at the restaurant from fresh ingredients. Wine list was decent and not expensive. They brought homemade bread with olive oil and balsamic to dip. I ordered the Crostini Toscani to start and it was very rich and tasty. For main course I had the spaghetti with fresh crab meat and it was simply fantastic. The pasta was “al dente” and the sauce was memorable. For desert I had the semifreddo al torrone with chocolate sauce and it was delicious. All accompanied by a glass of Barbera wine. All the above for £36. Overall it was a fantastic meal served by a very friendly staff of young Italians. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for one the best Italian meals you can get in London.

In un quartiere residenziale, fuori dal caos cittadino, c’è questo piccolo e grazioso ristorante italiano. La gestione è completamente ed autenticamente italiana e l’Italia migliore è tutta nei piatti gustosi e ricercati, una goduria per il palato. Il personale è gentilissimo. Consiglio a tutti questo ristorante.

In a very elegant area, a very gracious restaurant. Beautiful design, charming people and a very special italian cuisine. I come from Italy: I can say this for sure.

Great food and service. But if you want to eat here be sure to book a table as it’s popular every night all year round. Don’t miss out !

Four of us had a long relaxed Thursday lunch to celebrate a special occasion. The food was fresh and fabulous, the wines excellent, and the service quite lovely. We were the last to leave, so we were delighted to meet the Chef, and be able to tell him truly what a great time we had.

Comida increíble, un gran servicio y una fabulosa selección de vinos! Lo recomendaría absolutamente si estás en la zona. Ciertamente no es barato, pero definitivamente no es un precio estúpido por la calidad de la comida y el servicio.

No quería cobrarme de más en River Cafe, pero tener una reunión en W 6. Recomendado por un local. . . Facil aparcamiento en la calle y no estúpido. Usted podría caminar fácilmente por su unidad. Cocina en planta baja. . . área compacta para comer servicio rápido y amigable y la comida era genial. Plato de sardina muy recomendable. . . La merluza estaba muy bien cocinada. Buena carta de vinos. Definitivamente para volver a

Amazing food , the menu changes daily , and customer service no mention the wine , definitely the best Italian restaurant in Hammersmith / Shepherd's Bush area

Consistentemente bueno. Los propietarios Heidi y Mickel manejan un establecimiento consistentemente bueno. Los locales regresan una y otra vez. Hay una gran opción de almuerzo fijo y siempre hay algo en el menú para todos los gustos. Toda la casa preparada en el local, fresca y deliciosa. Volveré pronto La próxima vez para un almuerzo especial de "gracias" con amigos.

Yes i think it was good enough, a good Italian restaurant for London. It was nice for me as a beginner, give it a try :)

Un maravilloso hallazgo a través de TripAdvisor. . . Almuerzo con un amigo después de un día en el evento navideño Olympia.

A lovely way to spend a Saturday night! Close friends and great food. Started with the Smoked Whisked Mackerel with spring onions and lemon zest, which kicked things off wonderfully! And for main I had the delicious Pacherri Pasta with Venison Ragout. Every tastebud was satisfied. For pudding? The Tiramisu (of course!). Service was prompt and always came with a smile. The menu isn't huge but it's all the better for that; I'd rather choose from a few great dishes than a plethora of mediocre ones. Me and D are already planning a return trip!

We were staying at a hotel nearby and read the reviews for this restaurant and weren't disappointed! It was so busy we sat outside as it was such a warm evening and I thought we would be forgotten by the waitresses but they were so attentive. The venue is quite small but the food was out of this world! Gutted we didn't have room for desert! This place is a hidden gem.

I dined at Pentolina tonight and I have to say I had a great dining experience.

ロンドン、Hammersmithから10分程度、閑静な住宅地の一角にそのお店は佇んでいた。優しそうな店員さんお勧めのチーズの前菜から始まり、メインは卵を練り込んだフィットチーネ。アルデンデの程よい歯ごたえが至福のときに誘ってくれる。デザートのティラミスを食べ終えた頃には、またこのお店に来たいと感じざるを得ない感情が駆け巡った。

What a find. My husband and I ate here last night. It was wonderful. The food and wine menu was excellent, it was small but choices to suit all tastes. Just what we like to see. One thing to note, if you are ordering steak, order sides. The steak was delicious btw. Treat yourself and eat here!

I booked a lunch table for a family birthday and Pentolina gave us a wonderful time. Very delicious food with a good wine list. It's an appealing place with a wide open terrace door and tables in the street. The set menu is a bargain and offers just enough choice with wide ranging starters and delicious mains. The puddings are pretty good too!

A solid choice for dining in the Brook Green area. The food is good, the set menu, which I selected, had more than enough choices to put together an interesting meal. I had Mozzarella and Palma Ham followed by a pasta with boar ragu which were executed well. The a la carte menu also had quite a good range of dining options. Prices were reasonable and the restaurant decor is simple, light and airy. The restaurant is one of the best if you are in the neighbourhood.

Ristorante in stile country dove si mangia aa lume di candela ha un Menù a base italiana che offre cibi come ragu di coniglio, spinaci e ricotta, tutti prodotti freschi e ben cucinati., Ristornate molto accogliente e che ti fa sentire a casa tua e sta diventando rapidamente uno dei preferiti di Londra.

Un sitio genial en Hammersmith, pequeñito y acogedor y además la camarera muy amable y habla español.

Ein authentisches italienisches Restaurant mit ausgezeichnetem Service und exzellenter Küche. Gerne wieder!

Small, friendly neighbourhood restaurant with a short menu and a great wine list. Lunch set meals gave our party plenty of choice, were a creative step up from the standard fare. And the pasta was really beautifully cooked.

Accoglienza ottima. Vino buono. Cibo eccellente. Ci torneremo. Piccolo e intimo. Ti senti a tuo agio con dal primo momento.

Normalmente vienen aquí al menos una vez al año. Es un restaurante precioso con una deliciosa selección de comida. Hora de salida el menú usted mismo y su boca se llorar. También sirven una gran,Aperol Spritz! También me gustaría consejo reserva ya. Es muy popular

in generale quando vado all'estero non mangio italiano.....ma questa volta ,fidandoci delle ottime recensioni,io, mio marito e mio figlio(dottorando a londra)abbiamo deciso di provare questo ristorante.Locale intimo , bell'arredamento con tocchi shabby chic..cena squisita... sembrava di essere in un ottimo ristorante in Italia.....proprietari gentilissimi....complimenti ancora!

Ate here last night couldn’t fault it, the staff were very good, attentive and always there when you needed them, i ordered the tomato soup which was the best tomato soup I’ve ever had, and the sausage ragout which was also so good.

Lasagne végétarienne délicieuse, lunch menu tout à fait abordable, service parfait, à recommander sans hésiter

Es una familia operado Pentolina restaurante italiano en un tranquilo barrio cerca de Shepherds Bush.

The restaurant is spread over two floors. The furnishings, flowers, decor make it look very homely

El servicio es muy bueno, y la comida también. La pasta es 100% italiana, igual sus salsas. Trato muy amable de parte del camarero.

Elegimos este restaurante porque era descrito como uno de los buenos en Tripadvisor en un vecindario donde buscamos un fino cerca del hotel ou.

Really enjoyed this, haven’t been for ages. Food was good, wine was better. Disappointed with the Gavi di Gavi, although Barabresco Asili with main was ace! One of the best I’ve ever tasted!

The restaurant is quite appealing and converted from a terraced house. There is an upstairs and downstairs. Staff friendly. The food did not live up to expectations as the portions were on the small side compared with the price. My veal was dry even though it came with a sauce. Even the pasta portions were on the small side The wines were also on the expensive side as chose one I knew and it was more expensive than in a top class restaurant. Not really good value for money

Pentolina is a cute neighborhood restaurant where locals gather and meet. I'd recommend it for a nice and relaxing dinner in a comfy atmosphere.

Amazing Italian food in a homey atmosphere. Loved everything about it! Homemade bread like no other - simply outstanding.

Io e il mio compagno siamo rimasti piacevolmente colpiti da questo piccolo e accogliente ristorante vicino a casa nostra: cucina italiana con qualche rivisitazione, ingredienti ottimi e personale gentile. Menzione speciale per antipasto con formaggio fuso con miele e nocciole tostate e le lasagne con zucca e provolone.

Tuvimos cena de negocios aquí, y estamos encantados de haber encontrado un verdadero restaurante italiano, gustos comparable a las recetas originales italianas regionales, aromáticos y frescos. La selección de vinos es también buena. Teníamos una gran sopa de guisantes, lasaña y de postre realmente digno.

Aparecimos sin reserva y se hizo rápidamente abajo, así que no te preocupes si te fijas en y ver que está lleno! Creo que el ambiente era de abajo un poco mejor, en cualquier caso, y tenía la extraña de una comida íntima. Tuvimos una...

Had a great meal at Pentolina last night. Agree with many other reviewers on the key points: outstanding and warm...

Estuvimos en un evento en el Olympia, así que salimos de los restaurantes locales y encontramos Pentolina. Pequeño pero grande. un ponche de paquetes Excelente servicio de Heidi, con productos de primera clase construido en un menú, buen vino a un precio de gama media. Bien merece una visita.

Gran restaurante local, tan satisfechos es hacer bien. Muy completo cuando nos fuimos el jueves por la noche. Sufre el típico problema que recortado decoración tiene-v ruidoso, pero la comida era excelente, el servicio amable de una manera genuina y volveré de nuevo.

Normalmente poco restaurantes italianos en zonas residenciales de Londres puede ser difícil como la banca en su área de captación terminan no proveer un nivel suficientemente alto de tarifa. Pentolina es el contrario, ya que el empeño de servir a un nivel muy alto de la cocina italiana. No estamos hablando del Río Café de hace algunos años que era con seguridad el mejor restaurante italiano en Londres, pero estamos debatiendo muy seriamente preparados y particularmente buena comida italiana de degustación. El ambiente es pequeño y la falta de mantel proporciona un tipo de ambiente, pero el trattoria la calidad de la comida es de un buen restaurante. La decoración es muy simple y que ayuda a mantener el ambiente familiar como, que dijo que algunos materiales podrían ayudar absorber ruido quietening la habitación especialmente cuando hay un par de grandes mesas celebrando algo. El servicio es simple pero muy atento con ayudantes de mantener un ojo abierto para las solicitudes.

This restaurant offers interesting flavours and types of pasta using good quality ingredients. Service is good and efficient, but if you ask for anything that is not exactly as it is in the menu (i.e. a dish without a particular ingredient), it is unlikely that it can be offered because it appears that the sauces are pre-made. Upstairs seating can be a little too close to other diners. Overall I would go again but would not pine for it.

I had lunch here yesterday and the food was delicious (superlative pasta), the service from Heidi, Michele and their team excellent and the ambience delightful. My two guests were equally happy and I would strongly recommend this restaurant in the charming village atmosphere of Brook Green.

What a delightful experience, the food and the service were excellent. We were a table of 6 and we all enjoyed our delicacies. My spaghetti with Crab and pomodorini caramellati were excellent! It was very nice to meet the chef and owner Michele and his wife Heidi!

I had been to Pentolina several times before, having worked in the neighbourhood for many years. Having left London since then, but being here for an event I decided to try it out again with family. Nothing has changed: it is still a truly authentic Italian restaurant with fresh products - try the mozzarella - cooked as they can only in Italy, a few key ingredients mixed together that, because they are so fresh, stand by themselves with no need for much else in terms of flavouring. The staff are very friendly and helpful and are clearly proud of what they serve. Reservation essential.

What a great little local restaurant. Pretty much full at 7pm on a Thursday evening. PThe pasta was very good. Properly al dente. And the bread! Superb. Wine not cheap, but the Salice was very nice.Service friendly and attentive, but not too in your face. Recommended

It was our second visit to celebrate our anniversary. The atmosphere and food were both great. Pentolina is our favourite restaurant! 

We had shrimp carpaccio for starter, rabbit grill and pasta for main, tiramisu and coconut cream brulee for dessert. Dishes were beautifully presented and tasted great too. 

Everything was lovely. We were so happy to visit there again. 
We'd love to visit again!
