Portobello Garden Caffe in Kensington and Chelsea

Cuando se trata de italiano, sencillez es la palabra e ingredientes frescos harán que un plato sea realmente delicioso. Portobello Garden Café tiene éxito en cada obstáculo. Mi grupo compartió cuatro platos italianos muy diferentes y cada uno impresionado. ¡Volveré!

Härlig atmosfär med fantastisk god mat, service inriktad personal. Ren och fräsch toalett. God pasta med gott vin, härlig efterrätt.

Nos encantó este lugar - tuvimos la suerte de sentarnos en la zona de estilo jardín a pesar de que está cubierto. Lo encontramos por accidente y estamos muy contentos de haberlo hecho. El servicio y la comida eran increíbles. Grandes porciones para que pueda compartir, aunque el esposo no estaría de acuerdo. Se obtiene el menú a través de un código qr en su mesa, pero es todo servicio de mesa y el personal era increíble.

Como íbamos a visitar el mercado, decidimos reservar en este restaurante, y la verdad es que acertamos de pleno. Es un restaurante italiano muy original, ya que es como un patio de manzana interior. Nos atendieron rápido y la comida estaba estupenda. Desde luego que muy recomendable si se va por la zona. La única pega que le pondría es que las mesas estaban un poco pegadas las unas a las otras, pero al ser un sitio pequeño se entiende que quieran maximizar el espacio.

Los cuatro cenamos aquí por recomendación de un familiar, y no nos decepcionó. La comida era deliciosa, fresca, casera, con recetas italianas básicas. Pedimos el entrante de albóndigas, ensalada caprese, rigatoni con berenjena, pizza Margherita, pollo milanés cubierto con espaguetis, ravioles vegetarianos, y un postre (que me olvido por el momento). Todo estaba delicioso. El servicio fue cortés y servicial. Sin duda recomiendo.

Lovely little find. Fantastic food, service and setting. Proper food, full of flavour. The restaurant is only small and was very busy so might be better to book.

Went here for a birthday lunch, Eat a lot of Italian food and this place gives me the same feeling of eating at home, great service, Pizza's are a must, dont miss the specials board or the Campari spritz, great staff, highly recommend.

Un petit lieu charmant, l’Italie à Londres ! Les pizzas sont délicieuses avec une pâte d’une finesse à tomber. Les pâtes formidables et des produits frais et de qualité.

Complimenti tutto molto buono, sembra di entrare in un locale in Italia cibo ottimo e camerieri molto gentili che parlano tutti italiano, e parlo per esperienza perché ci sono locali con nomi italiani .....ma solo quello

Every time we are here everything is just perfect. Food, service and food and service… what could I say more? You can feel the Italian spirit there.

Restaurante con mucho encanto en medio de Portobello. La comida no es nada del otro mundo pero son agradables y el sitio también. Un fallo es que las sillas son muy altas y mesas bajas y comes un poco incómodo. No es barato pero nosotros íbamos con nuestros hijos de 13 y 12 años y repetiríamos.

Die beste Pizza, die ich je auf der ganzen Welt gegessen haben Sehr familiär und original... Ambiente "italian kitchen" Hier stehen alle zusammen und füreinander I love it!

We came across this delightful eatery by accident. Its very tucked away and its not at all obvious that its even there. What an amazing surprise. Its very rustic inside and full of italian nik naks which was a delight for the eyes. The staff were extremely welcoming, smiley and friendly. The Food!!! I think it probably the best Italian food I have ever had. Each mouthful was a pure delight, we didn't want it to end. The vegetable anti pasti is a must. We don't live locally but we will be back. Its our new favourite place!!

Heerlijk eten in een restaurant dat niet opvalt tenzij je even goed kijkt en aangetrokken wordt door een lange smalle gang naar de voordeur. Binnen leun je tegen de heerlijkste geuren, zit je onder een plafond gevuld met wijnranken en bloemen en zijn de wanden gevuld met alles wat er maar gebruikt wordt door de kok. De kaart is ruim en maakt kiezen moeilijk. Pizza is zoals het moet, namelijk met een heerlijk dunne bodem. De pasta(cannelloni in mijn geval) is heerlijk gekruid en ligt in een romige tomatensaus. De muziek hoort erbij, een mix van de oudere popmuziek zonder de opdringerige beat van tegenwoordig. De bediening is Italiaans en attent. Dit alles maakt dat wij wisten er goed aan gedaan hadden om de zomervakantie weer richting Italië te gaan. Overigens is de “blauwe” deur niet ver van dit restaurant(film Notting Hill)) Prachtig sfeervol restaurant, zonde om over te slaan!

Really nice interior. Very prettily decorated and more importantly the food is excellent. The produce is all fresh. Cost is fine and service good.

Stumbled into this home style Italian restaurant after a long stroll on Portobello Street. Peeked into the alley and saw a cute restaurant inside.Place says open 12pm but we went in 11am and the lovely lady from Sorento originally welcomed us and sat us. Food was really delicious,vibe was great and cozy,feels like dining in an Italian home. Highly recommended!

A delightful hole in the wall Hidden away in the back streets of the Portobello road in Notting Hill. A family run restaurant, with authentic Italian flavors. If you dont want the jazz of the fancy Italians in the West End, This is the place to be, for an heart warming Italian Lasagne or even a salad

Très bonne adresse ! Les plats étaient délicieux et les desserts à tomber par terre ! Le cadre est superbe ! Si vous passez à portobello road, allez y !

A wonderful, charming restaurant with quality produce, large servings and warm, generous service. I sometimes think it's difficult for Italian restaurants to be exceptional, but this Notting Hill eaterie is an absolute gem.

Worst Italian restaurant in London, service was terrible, we kept being bullied by a blonde waitress + the food could not even been defined as Italian.. settings are cute but even prices unreasonable. Definitely not the way to experience the real Italian culture and cuisine

Excellent place if you like Italian food. A bit quirky in design, part trattoria, part grocery shop, part home kitchen. Some dishes are prepared in front of you in a sort of open kitchen, some ingredients are on display... The food was excellent, the chef is Italian, the majority of the staff seems to be Italian, you're out of London the second you step in.

This was a delicious discovery while taking in the market. Fast and friendly service in a absolutely delightful family restaurant. Skip the chaos of the trendy restaurants and grab some amazing food here in a beautiful and relaxing setting.

I went to this restaurant yesterday on the 9th of October 2023, with my new sister and my daughter and grandson. I was on my way to the Adoption agency just off the Portobello Road. We was feeling a bit peckish. When I stumbled across this Italian eatery, I walked past Ann, it caught my eye the ingredients, the chef the cleanliness and then the friendliness of the young gentleman that served us very very very top-notch. I am a ex chef. I do love my food I’m very particular of where it comes from. This was a new one for me, and one I won’t forget as it was also Very tasty reasonably priced we all had mains bottle of water, three coffees and a side order of fries very reasonable priced. Even the chef came his head to me as to say is everything okay? I gave him the thumbs up and put my hand to my heart🙏🏼🥂 I’d like to thank everyone for that lovely day they made for me and my family if you’re ever in Portobello Road why not try this lovely café restaurant fresh produce and excellent service. Thank you once again

Definitely an excellent place to enjoy Italian food in a relaxed environment. Italian charcuterie, pasta,pizza

This restaurant is amazing. Beautiful food, friendly staff and the restaurant makes you feel like you are in Italy. What's not to love! Will definitely be returning.

Quirky cafe. Great premises. Delightful staff. Food is wonderful. Deli type food of top quality. I would definitely return.

Love it here. Stopped for Sunday lunch for a tabel for two. The whole place has a lovely authentic feel to it and the attentive and pleasant staff just add to it. Food choice is excellent, well made and presented and portions of a size where you can enjoy all three courses the three berry cheesecake is especuially good. It was busy when we there, maybe 90% full but that helps creates the atmosphere and didn't hamper the service. Cost and value more than reasonable for the location and we definitely will be back again soon. Fantastic Job

Absolutely great spot, thoroughly enjoyed the food atmosphere and service and will most definitely come here again

God velkomst og atmosfære, god betjening og lækker, lækker mad. Mad for alle. Vi fik pizza og pastaret- alt perfekt tilberedt og god smag. Hurtig betjening. Gode drinks og øl

Love this place, food is fabulous, seriously let down by the toilet facilities though. 1 Shared toilet for customers and staff and was filthy.

We came to this restaurant according to the Tripadvisor recommandations. The place is actually hidden but INCREDIBLE. The service is perfect and the food really tasty and delicious. The open kitchen concept as a decoration inspired us and that way we knew how fresh the...

A charming hidden gem on Portobello Road. The produce display and delicatessen set the mood in a beautiful conservatory away from the hustle and bustle of the street. We ordered antipasti, which were freshly prepared and well presented. Italian Morretti beer from a keg, and...

Came for an early dinner mid-week - excellent pizza, with a nice wine and the burrata side dish and salads were very good. We had beef carpaccio which was good, but more of a cured meet version than fresh and so not as good as...

Booked this place based on the good reviews and the food was very good. We had focaccia, pizza, courgette fries and drinks. The ambience was nice as well and felt very authentic. Service wasn’t great - wrong drinks or drinks not arriving, the mains order...

I actually pondered for a few days whether to write this review or not, but ultimately decided that my concerns should be shared. I went here based on reviews and I had both the best and worst experiences. I was first given a rather awkward...

Portobello Road Market was an absolute crush of people. Having researched our dining options well in advance of the shopping excursion we were keen to give the Portobello Garden Arcade a try. The prior glowing reviews certainly got it right. This was the absolute best...

Stopped by on a Saturday with our mothers for a lunch while browsing the markets. We were lucky enough to get a seat on quite a busy day, and every one of us really enjoyed our meals. I had a pizza with salami, ham and...

What a wonderful find in the middle of a busy Portobello market day. A little hard to find since it’s off the street in an arcade. But look for it. It’s worth it. True Italian with fresh everything. From pasta to pizza and a fabulous...

Einfach fantastisch, wie in Italien Tolles Essen zu fairen Preisen und motiviertes italienisches Personal. Italianita pur !!!

For me, is the best traditional Italian vibe and food you can get in London. Adorable decor with exposed kitchen presentation. I travel to london twice a year and always go there

Restaurangen var inbjudande o trevlig. Verkade genuint bra. Beställde carbonara, otroligt salt, underkokt, fick inte i oss hälften. Potatis/gnocci med...

This restaurant was brilliant. A pure gem! Found on accident while strolling through Portobello market. It's a must. My friend and I opted for San Daniele and burrata and fresh homemade bread for starter and pizza as main! You won't regret it should you pay...

The is a true Italian gem in London. The staff is mostly Italian, the food is excellent, tastes like heaven and the prices are affordable. The place looks cool and cosy. It can became quite full since it's on Portobello market, I would recommend booking...

Abbiamo preso una pizza, pasta all’arrabbiata e un’insalata mista, tutto molto buono e bellissima location. Consigliato

Buenísima opción para comer italiano en Portobello road. Pedimos espaguetis carbonara y lasaña y ambas cosas estaban espectaculares. La atención...

Fantastisk sted. Autentisk og en skøn smagsoplevelse. Varmeste anbefalinger af denne lille hyggelige perle <3

A gorgeous hidden gem with the perfect setting and vibe. Fantastic menu choices with the food being unreal. The staff were great and the restaurant was busy which is always a good sign!

During a very casual walk down Portobello Road on a wet and grey Sunday, I came across the super charming exterior of the Portobello Garden Cafe. The interior is just as charming and completely transports you away from the bustle of London. I can only...

Linguine Ai Frutti di Mare were the best dish I had in years. Al dente tasty linguine, great seafood, and absolutely fantastic sauce. When combined into a single bite, it was almost out of this world. 👏

My favourite Italian in London. Fantastic food, im slowly going through all the vegetarian options (there are plenty.) fantastic atmosphere, and location.

Fantastic homely feel in this small Restaurant on the Portobello Road. Nice menu and reasonably priced. Friendly staff.

We found the Portobello Garden when we were at the market. This was a terrific little place that you almost feel is a little secret in the middle of Notting Hill. Fabia served has and she was Wonderful. Friendly and chatty. The food was incredible....

Fresh pasta, pizzas, appetizers, Italian top quality food. Friendly staff always ready to give the best service.

This place is hidden gem with genuine Italian food just like you'd find all over Italy. Great food, superb friendly service all in a wonderful little courtyard. My daughter and I will be back for more and more. Love it :)

I am hoping that because the address is the same, the Portobello Garden Caffe is also the Portobello Garden Arcade, if not, my most sincere apologies. Day trip to London to meet up with some Chinese friends, to go to Portobello Road market, as none...

This is the closest we’ve got to feeling like we are in Italy without being in Italy! Food was authentic and great value for money. Staff we’re extremely welcoming. We definitely visit again.

This place looks a bit old with walls crumpling down in places and everything having the makeshift look but as soon as you get your food it just doesn't matter anymore. The most wonderful, tasty, fresh and flavoursome Italian food I've had in a while,...

Came here for lunch upon a recommendation. Food was delicious and authentic Italian. Will be back again soon!

I am very picky about my food, so my lunch here was a delightful experience. They offer simple honest and extremely tasty Italian food in an unpretentious cafe tucked away via a little covered alleyway on Portobello Road. Wonderful find!

The Pasta (Tagliatella with beef) was incredible. The decor takes you right to Italy. Brilliant, authentic and friendly; a great evening, will definitely go back!

Lovely location and Amazing Italian food. I will definitely come back when I'm on London, also the staff was very polite and friendly.

He estado aquí varias veces y son consistentemente buenos. Comida casera deliciosa y ambiente relajado y relajado. Por lo general, abre todo el día desde el mediodía, pero consulte el sitio web. Siempre algunas opciones de pasta inusuales e interesantes, así como los habituales, así como platos principales de pescado y carne. Muy recomendable para comer con amigos y solo, utilizado por muchos de los lugareños.

Excelente pizza, excelente bruscetta, personal encantador. Casi se puede fingir estar en Italia en una noche sombría en el Brexit de Gran Bretaña. Crecí en Portobello Road durante las décadas de 1950 y 1960. Mucho ha cambiado y mucho peor. Pero este lugar es un cambio para mejor, encantador.

Excellent recommendation by the waitress Cibele. The selection of ham, mortadela, cheese, olives and homemade bread was delicious. Worth the visit.

Noticed the place before lunch time. Looked great and chefs were preparing the food. Walking further to Kensington park we took bus back and had an excellent lunch. Southern European flavours and home made food. Great athmosphere

Ça sent vraiment l’Italie. Très bon accueil. Tout était très bon saltimbanque, cannelloni pizza et tiramisu.

Quirky local Italian, achingly cool, delicious food and kind, attentive staff, just off Portobello road would highly recommend

Lunch for two. A huge portion of Bombe Bufalo. Everything tasted so fresh and homely. It was delightful, as was the service and a very, very good espresso to finish.

We had the most amazing experience at the Portobello Garden. There are no words to describe the outstanding service of Michele! Michele thank you for everything!

Decorado como un colmado o como una cocina casera italiana, es un sitio escondido y maravilloso. La comida es excelente el servicio super amable. A destacar un chico italiano que trabaja alli. No os perdáis la Lasagna y preguntar por el plato del día.

My son Nik booked this for us as he highly recommended it. He been before with colleagues from work. The food was lovely and tasty. The atmosphere and the staff were all lovely. I will look forwarded to coming again soon in the future.

My wife and I had been to the garden caffe once before and absolutely loved it. this time we took two of our children and weren't disappointed. food, atmosphere and service was amazing for such an unassuming, charming little eatery. perfectly relaxed for a wonderful plate of food and glass of wine. whilst we had to wait for a free table it was well worth it. oh how I wish we had something similar down the road from where we live!!

Franchement tout était parfait. Le service, l'accueil, les plats, la bière... Bon je ne vois absolument rien à redire.Rapport qualité prix très raisonnable..Foncez tête baissée.

What a treat! We were about to hop into the Italian restaurant on the street next door when we spotted this little place down the alley and so glad we did. A charming place where the food is lovingly prepared fresh as you sit and absolutely delicious. Our meals were delivered to the table with a smile by he who had prepared it, can’t remember when I last felt so welcome in a restaurant by all who make this little gem work. One of London’s real hidden treasures, this. Thank you and we will certainly be back when we are next in Portobello Road!

Citta stupenda .. tutto da visitare .. dal piccolo negozio. da Harold shopping.. la residenza di lady Diana Buckingham Palace il mercato favoloso di Londra. Il museo del Cairo E tante e tante passeggiate.. la zona Cina town spaziosa vistosa colorata sempre simpatico da vedersi... il meraviglioso Tamigi e le bellissime foto da noi scattate che il ricordo più bello.

This is a real find! A wonderful authentic Italian restaurant with excellent food and charming staff! We got talking to the chefs and they were also really nice and clearly passionate about their work!

Amazing place to experience authentic Italian cuisine with a home like atmosphere. The food is delicious, the service is excellent! Have been there twice over my recent visit to London. It’s a hidden gem in a vibrant Notting hill.

Excellent food. Incredible service and options for everyone. The place is lovely and clean. Very recommended to anyone coming to Nothing Hill (London)

Just go and order anything you fell like, you wont regrat it. And it will your cheapest meal in London, trust me.

This restaurant is hidden away down a passage off the Portobello road.

Stopped in early in the day when they were closed and saw the attention to detail in food prep. Returned two nights later for a lovely meal. The bruschetta was the best!! Felt a little like being in Italy - as Italian language was all around and gave me the sense we scored if native Italians find this place as good as we did. YUM.

Tucked away from the huddle and bussle of portobello road, we had a nice lunch here, very healthy fresh food!

Nos dirigimos aquí para cenar con amigos el sábado por la noche. El ambiente acogedor y agradable es tan bueno como la excelente comida.

Mi esposa me dijo que este lugar es imprescindible, ¡como siempre, tenía toda la razón!

Fuimos el año pasado y nos encantó, este año hemos vuelto y nos ha defraudado bastante. Quizás fueron tan buenas expectativas del año anterior..

Tellement de choses à dire sur ce restaurant traditionnel italien : décoration authentique, cuisine de qualité avec des bons produits frais, rapport qualité/prix, bon service et j'en oublie sûrement. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant.

Mi esposa y yo hemos visitado este restaurante dos veces en los últimos meses y las dos veces nos hemos sentido abrumados por los sabores de este lugar.

Locale molto carino con personale italiano molto gentile ed efficiente, il cibo è veramente buono con prodotti di qualità

Siamo stati in questo ristorante seguendo le recensioni di TripAdvisor.

Lugar pequeno, mas surpreendente!! Comida ótima, saborosa e rápida, atendimento atencioso e amigável. Um pedacinho da Itália em Londres.

A comida italiana é impecável. Conseguimos ver o preparo da cozinha. Rápido, saboroso, atendimento cordial e um excelente preço. O prato principal gira em torno de 11 libras.

Scoperto per caso il locale è posizionato in un vicolo. Pochi tavoli ma una bella atmosfera casareccia italiana. Il cibo ottimo. Piatti preparati al momento, salumi, formaggi e pomodori sono alla vista di tutti.

A bite to eat turned into a proper lunch. We couldn't stop ourselves after the starters and ended up eating far too much and wholly unnecessary amounts of everything. Such generous helpings washed down with perfectly cold Peroni and Moretti. Utterly charming and astoundingly good value. Now off for a well-deserved siesta (wrong language I know).

Une Très bonne adresse trouvée au hasard d’une promenade sur Portobello Road

Trovato per caso su internet, ci siamo ancora imbattuti in questo locale italiano. Solitamente all’estero non li frequento per evitare delusioni, ma, spinto dalla voglia di pasta del figlio, ho voluto provarlo.

Belle découverte ! Super resto, pâtes succulentes, splendides salades... et personnel fort sympathique !!!

This is a gem- hidden away at the top of Portobello Road, with a very relaxed but typical Italian feel to the establishment. Service was good, menu was unusual but very easy and plentiful. Good value for money, would definitely visit again

Realmente o local é agradável e acolhedor. A comida italiana é um primor. Atendimento impecável. Vale muito a pena conhecer. Muito recomendado. Cerveja gelada.
