Primavera in Hackney

I live in the area, but never visited before. The food was delicious! This is a family run restaurant and both mum and daughter were charming. Dad is the chef. My new favourite restaurant in Church St.

A great Italian restaurant! Very friendly. Lots of choice (including gluten-free pasta and other gluten free options!). Dog friendly (at least for a little dachshund!). Generous portions and reasonably priced. Very relaxed atmosphere. It really is a gem of a restaurant! Well worth a visit!

We had an excellent meal in this family run restaurant. Delicious food, good sized portions. Friendly and attentive service. They even welcomed our little dog. The complimentary limoncello with the chef at the end of the night topped off a great night.

Wow! What an unexpectedly beautiful dining experience: - great customer service - we were welcomed warmly with a genuine smile at the door on a rainy night, which was really appreciated and set the tone for the evening. - the food looked and tasted fantastic. - We left planning to return, which shows just how good it was within a highly competitive location (Church St., Stoke Newington).

I tried this restaurant by chance and I fell in love with it! Quiet atmosphere, by candlelight. It's a family run, and they're nicer than the other! Very Good Food!!! Both meat and fish. Chef Gimmy is No. 1. We will definitely be back!!

Warm welcome, great service and lovely food. We went for a family meal - the 5 of us ate 3 courses and got through 3 bottles of a very acceptable house red for about £220 including service.

Went here for a casual dinner after a movie and had a really enjoyable meal: great service, food was tasty and everything felt tasted fresh and was cooked to perfection. We ordered a prawn starter which was delicious, then tagliatelle and a lasagne. Really good portion sizes and everything was delicious. I’ll definitely be going again; the atmosphere was really relaxing and warm and the meal was a lovely end to the evening.

My wife loves Italian food. This is one of our favourite restaurants to go. We often go to Primavera when my wife craves Italian food. The staff are very friendly and the owners too. This is where we first tried Limoncello. We love their pasta and pizza. From our recent visit, we ordered lasagna, americano pizza and chicken breast with mashed potato. Last month, we had carbonara, calzone, bruscheta and salad. We always enjoy dinner here. The atmosphere is good, we can talk to each other clearly without much noise like in other restaurants.

Always greeted with a warm welcome. Staff/ owners are lovely. The food is fantastic. I love this place.

The food is wonderful, tasty and good portion size. The staff are friendly and cheerful. Will definitely be going back.

My partner and I made our first ever trip together to Stoke Newington. We discovered this wonderful restaurant and we each had a lovely meal. We will of course going back to Stokie again soon just to go to the fabulous Primavera restaurant again.

Came late on a Wednesday night, sat outside on Church St. Ran by an Italian family, super nice and welcoming. We had the arrabiata, funghi pizza and my boyfriend had the seafood linguine, and shared a bottle of house red. Oh, and we shared a pannacotta. The bill came to £52, and honestly it was just so good. The arrabiata was just spicy enough, nice and garlicky and with fresh squashed tomatoes in there - so delicious. The pizza was super good too. My boyfriend loved his pasta, it had loads and loads of seafood in there ! The wine was great as well. Service just amazing - the owners daughter was honestly a lovely lovely person, so cool. Our new spot. Xx

Authentic delicious food! Tiramisu was incredible as was the seafood linguini. The great service was attemptive and really love the touch of a limoncello at the end! :) Can’t wait to come back !!
