[roots] Cocktail Bar in Newham

Buscando un lugar para almorzar mientras estábamos en Westfields, pasamos por el patio de comidas lleno de gente en la planta baja, buscando algo un poco diferente. Encontramos Pasta Remoli en el extremo lejano, que era una opción mucho más tranquila y relajante. El menú ofrece un “construye tu propio plato de pasta”, así como algunas opciones de autor para los indecisos entre nosotros. Elijo raviolis de espinaca y ricota, que estaba delicioso y servido rápidamente con una sonrisa. ¡En el lado negativo los tamaños de las porciones no son demasiado generosos!

Delicious food and lovely staff Me and my family visited on a Saturday evening and enjoyed a fantastic meal. The place was pretty busy but had lots of tables. All the staff were a delight. Me and my Dad had the BBQ spare rib starter. The sauce was more like tomato but was tasty and there was plenty of meat that was cooked nicely. For mains we all ordered from the specials board. I had the BBQ Chicken pizza which was large and generously topped with chicken. My Dad liked his beef shin tortellini and it was more filling then he expected. My Mum had seabass which had 2 big pieces of fish along with perfectly cooked vegetables. Overall the food was superb but a bit overpriced as were the drinks. They did have a great selection on the bar menu though.

Love Zero Sette. Best chef and amazing waiters! Laura and Steve really make this place great 🥰

Ordered Prosciutto pizza and Seafood linguine, both had issues: 1. Seafood linguine used to be linguine, now it's spaghetti pasta which has worse taste and is ultimately misleading. 2. Prosciutto pizza had rocket salad unwashed with a large chunk of dirt on the pizza. This is a major food safety problem.

The food is nice like any other Franco Manca but service could be better. I also asked for a kids menu so my son could use the activities and they said they only had one so needed to keep it, which was very disappointing as he always looks forward to those in any Franco Manca. Availability was also not great, I ordered a salad and they didn't have goat cheese, then told me they didn't have butternut squash (which is the main ingredient) so I asked to replace with mushrooms, which had to be approved by the manager (they kept suggesting olives instead), but then actually had the butternut squash in the end. A bit of a messy experience and not great as other branches. Also, I got a kids menu and they made no mention of the desert that is normally included.
