San Marco in City of London, Westminster

We came here almost by chance because we were accosted at the entrance, without having checked the reviews first. We ordered two glasses of wine and two four-cheese pizzas. The wine was really not good. We waited over 30 minutes for the food, and when the pizzas arrived, we wondered if we'd been fooled. Dry, only crust, overcooked, almost no cheese—in short, inedible. I don't usually comment or leave my food, but this was too much to not point out. Of course, we weren't charged for the food, even though we paid 17 pounds for the two glasses of vinegar. However, we would like to sincerely commend the work of the waitresses, who remained very professional and cheerful despite the context. All the best, ladies... Sincerely avoid.

A 100 stars!!! We ran into this excellent family Italian restaurant where Mario and the owner treated us with excellent hospitality. Enthusiastically welcomed us in even though they were shortly closing. They even accommodated my companions gluten allergy. The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. So glad to have found it.

Am I waiting for a train in London Paddington or am in Amalfi?! Lovely spot for dinner

Ideal place to eat. Mario's treatment was excellent, and the waitresses were very attentive. Everything we ordered was delicious! You can see the quality of the product, we ordered pasta, pizza... I recommend trying the meat lasagna. If you are in London, it is mandatory to stop by here.

Bad food, great italian sellers fake italian food

The wait staff are very friendly and inviting and the food is really good.

Super ambiance et accueil chaleureux et festif. Les pizzas sont délicieuses avec une pâte souple et des prix abordables.

Loved the pizza 🍕🍕!! Just want I needed. Cheers

Had a great meal. The owner Marco was very nice.

We went in because there was nothing else and McDonald's was closed, despite the great deal for a pizza and a salad (half a tomato and 1/4 of a chopped onion) we paid an awful lot. After paying, the guy with the hat with a feather told us that we are coming to London for a getaway and we don't leave a tip because we live off of that...seriously, you can't have that much iron face (hard) to tell us that, I don't recommend it, especially not for foreigners. Thanks to Robin Hood.

The atmosphere of the restaurant was unappetizing, the food was poor, and at the end they asked us to tip to pay, a very inappropriate comment from the owner of the restaurant.

Mario y su Hijo son el corazón de esta familia dirigida por italianos! Cálido y amable y quiere que realmente disfrute de su tiempo. Servicio 10 / 10 Comida 8 / 10 - la pasta era muy sabrosa y grandes porciones, buen vino. Medio ambiente 7 / 10 - grandes imágenes de Italia en las paredes DO GO Visit, el servicio es divertido! Mario con un poco de baile y una sonrisa enorme, y Son muy atractivo.

There was one very rude waiter who made the experience really uncomfortable. The food was mediocre

Cozy place, good food and very helpful and approachable staff. Advised!

Staff played with my child whilst waiting for take out which always helps a parent. Clean fresh ingredients with loads of flavour !

When we arrived at the restaurant, a man greeted us with a very cheerful attitude, inviting us in and seating us very kindly, but once inside and having already ordered, this man's attitude changed completely, He began to answer reluctantly, as if everything were an inconvenience and our fault, we asked for tap water and he arrived throwing the glasses, the food in general is good and of a good proportion, when asking for condiments for the food (chili flakes) he rolled his eyes at us, he pawed at us while he complained very loudly and it took him a long time to bring it, and again at the end when we asked for the bill, the abuse continued, he yelled at us that we were taking too long and in the end he got angry and made us We took the account to the cash register where he asked another person to take charge of charging us, denoting with his complaints and gestures that he was tired of making the minimum effort to serve us. During our stay we felt very uncomfortable seeing how this man shouts and mistreats all the diners, the atmosphere is tense and hostile. You can see the modus operandi of this man, because while they are potential clients he is the kindest person in life but once inside he becomes the most disastrous, unpleasant surprise that the diners took one by one. I do not recommend it as long as this man in a hat with a feather continues to work there, it is obvious that he is fed up and that he hates working there, customer service is not his thing.

Dining in this restaurant was very pleasant. The atmosphere is nice, as is the service. The boss was very friendly and understanding and proactive with every question. The food is delicious and definitely recommended.

The food is delicious regarding price/quality. The man with the pen is rude, he rushes to take the order, he has a whistle to attract attention and it seems that everything bothers him. The music in the place is very loud, which does not allow talking.

Vomitive. We entered because the owner missed grabbing us by the neck. I was with a whistle and sweatier than in a spin class. I prefer not to comment on the food.

If you’re looking for a genuine Italian spot in London, this place is a total gem. From the moment we walked in, the staff was so warm and welcoming—they even remembered us when we came back, which was such a nice touch. The food? Everything was super fresh, simple, and packed with flavor—just like you’d hope from a proper Italian kitchen. Whether it was the pasta or their wood-fired pizza, you could tell every dish was made with care. The service was quick without cutting any corners, and the prices were way more reasonable than you’d expect for how good everything was. We ended up going back a few times because it was just that good. The food was amazing, but the relaxed, welcoming vibe really made it special. If you’re craving an authentic Italian meal in London, this place should be at the top of your list!

Food : - the margarita was a top notch one of the most delicious pizzas ive ever had . - fettuccini with Gamberoni was above average. Service : was so good the staff went above and beyond with welcoming , smiling and helping me and othet customers , the owner was so friendly , funny with an amazing character. - the place was cozy, clean and warm . - i loved the experience it self - i highly recommend their pizza

Este es un gran lugar - tienes una gran comida y espectáculo gratuito solo para divertirse al mismo tiempo. Pedí mi pizze italiano favorito de calzone, que muchos colocan y no hacen hoy en día.

Awful, very slow service and very pushy waiter, made to feel very uncomfortable. The food was good when it finally arrived.

Muy promedio, la comida era buena, pero el servicio terrible. El personal realmente no podría haber tenido menos importancia. Si el propietario / gerente lee esto y desea comentarios específicos por favor hágamelo saber, pero el personal de espera está decepcionando a usted y el chef!

Caro signor Mario ,complimenti per il cappello ma soprattutto per la pizza deliziosa ,grazie per la splendida serata. Consiglio per tutti gli italiani se vogliono sentirsi a casa e degustare una leccornia. Un bacio e un abbraccio

Bit of a let down, very bland (calamari) but still filling ...nice desserts etc

40 minute wait for 3 takeaway pizzas. We asked for 2 glasses of wine while waiting (paying for them obviously) and we were denied. The rude service and the inedible pizzas. Extremely rejected

Crappy, cold and expensive food. Overwhelming as well as slow service. Very hurry to take the order but then they have you waiting for half an hour to serve you a cold pizza and stale pasta. Not recommended.

Terrible food, I will never go there again, very pushy waiter/owner with a hat...

Strange food and cold food, pizzas either come from outside or from the toilet.

Really a shame....service...no idea if this was for show or really that unfriendly. Pizzas (15 pounds) served cold and little sauce...received them just as quickly as the table next to us, who ordered 10 minutes later than us. Spaghetti with schnitzel ....19 pounds ... was warm, but scanty .... pasta without cheese and minced meat. And schnitzel without lemon...in short...not worth repeating. Disappointing 😥

Average experience, We are rushed into the street, quickly, insistently and with a whistle... urged to sit down. Barely seated, already asks us for drinks and meals... we ask him for more time, insists. Once the drinks are ordered, don't bring them back, we ask him, answer, complain. Average atmosphere too, a lot of noise between the music and the staff who shout and shout in front of the customers.

Very stressed boss, barely had time to take our order and almost threw the plates on the table. Food was okay but nothing special.

The food is good but nothing more, on the other hand the waiting time for the dishes is very long and the same goes for paying the bill, and the waiter with the beret is very nice to let the customers in but after that you shouldn't take a wrong step.

Excellent service, they are very friendly, the pizza was good!

Very rude person who has an Italian hat or what not. Zero customer service. I will never recommend

We went here, cause we were very tired and hungry after whole day walking. Chicken breast with mushrooms w/o taste at all, I was surprised that none of frites or potatos were attached. Gnocchi with a sause from a can, no taste as well. Not recommended.

The food was very good, as was the waiter, an original Italian. Mega friendly and pure entertainment. Can only recommend it

Bad experience due to the attention, the man answered angrily even for asking for the bill. And the unpleasant music without the possibility of change

A man with a feather on his head made us enter like public relations, a bit of a show. Inside we asked for free water, which is great in all of London, in this case it was not drinkable, we had to order other drinks. We ordered a tricolor salad, and it brought 2 slices of cheese, 3 of tomato, cut avocado and leaf, and a handful of arugula, it looked like anything but a salad. Finally two pizzas, thinner than a sheet of paper, tasteless and dry. In our case we were a family, I would not recommend it, I give it a 1 so that this does not happen to the next person.

Friendly and welcoming staff. A short walk to London Paddington train station too, so we ended out visit to London with a nice hot meal prior to getting the train home! A nice change from visiting the 'chain' Italian restaurants! Inside was lovely and warm, which was nice especially with the cold wintery weather we have had during our visit. Food portions were very generous and well priced. Staff very helpful and wanted us to be happy. My seafood dish was a tad bland tasting, but then again, this could be down to the cold weather and my cold! Great restaurant, great people, great prices! Give it a try! And an ideal location.

We had dinner 2 evenings in this restaurant and I must say that we had a very good time, pizza freshly made and not frozen like other places in London, very good pasta (the ragù is like the homemade one in Italy) plus as a cherry on the top De Andrè's music in the background is sweet. What more do you want? Fair prices compared to the average in the area

As an Italian I can say that the pizza is far from the standards of those who know its flavour, but there probably isn't much expectation in London

La comida tenía un precio razonable, y llegó rápidamente. El restaurante era tranquilo cuando visitamos con numerosos comensales individuales, éramos una familia y cuando preguntamos por una porción infantil la camarera dijo que no había opciones para niños. El ambiente y el servicio era un poco deficiente.

Delicious food! Owner is very nice and enthusiastic. The lady serving was also very nice and helpful. Despite the crowds, we received our food quickly!

Very nice place for food, I love my pizza and a good price

We got here because it was already late and we discovered that it was a really nice place: friendly staff, fast service and a cozy realm. I will definitely suggest this to other people.

Very good food. Good service and fast food! Good value for money and tasty meals!!! Real Italian restaurant! Highly recommended!!

Very tasty food, fantastic service and super child-friendly. They serve everything with pleasure, super fun to see. Top restaurant and really Italian! Definitely recommended! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very good Italian restaurant! The products were fresh and the cooking was homemade. We had the spaghetti carbonara, garlic spaghetti, eggplant penne and pepperoni pizza. Everyone enjoyed themselves and finished with dessert, also homemade, the famous tiramisu. We highly recommend it and will return there on our next stay in London.

Har nog ätit mycket bättre Italiensk mat, ganska asmaklöst både pasta och pizza. Bra service. Men om man är hungrig så går det bra

Very busy place generous serves and friendly staff

Not pleasant restaurant. I've got avocado as a starter, and they brought it with sticker on it. The pizza was dry and not cut. Pasta wasn't tasty. We expected a nice dinner but had a bad experience.

Servicio bueno pero la descripción del menú era deliberadamente engañoso. Pedí fetuccino con prosciutto y hongos. Esto vino con grandes trozos de tocino, no prosciutto. Cuando señalé esto, la camarera comenzó a darse cuenta de lo difícil que era conseguir prosciutto y lo caro que era. Bueno, no y sí. Ella se disculpó cuando pagué la cuenta, así que esto fue claramente deliberado. Y para añadir insultos, se añadió automáticamente un cargo por servicio del 10 %, aunque no se mencionó en el menú. Así que unos peniques fueron salvados por el restaurante y nunca volveré.

Don't order the bruschetta because you get a white focaccia with tomato on top. Evidently non-Italian management. The indigestible pizza. In short, if you want to eat Italian... go to Italy! 😂

Very good Italian restaurant price/quality ratio for the area in which it is located, where everything is usually a little more expensive. Great atmosphere, very good attention from the service. They took little time to attend to us and serve us. Note that they have vegan options and a very good location. The musical selection to create the atmosphere is perfect, very good taste in that too. Perfect place.

It caught us very close to the hotel and we decided to go there one night for dinner. They were very friendly and the food was very good, we ordered two pizzas and a side of fries. The quantities were quite good, so much so that we had leftovers and they gave it to us to take away.

Tourist trap, pizza clearly frozen and according to the waitresses they use an electric oven. To be avoided even if it were the last "restaurant" on earth.

We happen upon this Italian place in the heart of Paddington by chance. The welcome given was just sufficient but the good attentive service immediately made you change your mind. The pizza was good, arrived shortly. Advised.

Food is terrible! No where close to Italian food! Ordered the spinach and ricotta tortellini. Absolutely tasteless! No flavour at all and it was rubbery! Definitely wouldn't recommend this place for Italian food!

I sat down and no one came to serve me. They ignored my presence completely. They served other customers who even arrived later. The worst service I have seen in years

Thin crust pizza, good size to share.

A family atmosphere, fantastic service, excellent food. A hidden gem in London. I’m from the USA, have spent 3 weeks in the United Kingdom and France and you’d be hard pressed to find a more welcoming place to enjoy a meal.

Good price and good food and good hospitality

Very good food. One of the best Italian food I had in London. Friendly staff and friendly prices. Recommended.

I like the folded pizza. You should try. Also staff are so kind.

One really nice table outside!!!

Amazing Italian pizza and waiters

Good pizzas at a reasonable price for Paddington and London, simple but good and very friendly service.

We will definitely return here. Highly recommend this delightful Italian restaurant for excellent friendly service and food that you just want more of. Tiramisu was the best I have ever tasted. Great atmosphere. Quick efficient service & great wine selection. 🍷

We ate grilled chicken with mozzarella and ham, with Neapolitan noodles, the best we ate in London and several European countries that we visited! Very cheap (compared to prices in the area) and soooo delicious!! Thank you

Delicious pizza...great service!

Fabulous local restaurant, amazing value for central London, portions slightly to big for myself but most people would love it 😊

Starting from the beginning, it is not an Italian, we have just come from dinner and we have verified that it is Italian cuisine made by people not specialized in the subject. To share we ordered a salad that was not drained, composed of iceberg lettuce, carrot, avocado, 3 small portions of Mozzarella (from a bag) and three slices of tomato. It seemed like a puzzle, all very well put together, similar to a hospital presentation. The 3 stars are because the second ones were not bad, 2 4-season pizzas, some large tortellini that were a little bland and a calzones that, honestly, left a lot to be desired.

This is my favourite Italian place in London by far , the food is filling and the people are so friendly and speak Italian

I went to London for a few days. It was my evening canteen. The food is very good as is the welcome and it was 50 m from my hotel

This restaurant was a gem! Met the owner and he took care of all of our needs. It was so good that we went for dinner there the following night.

Tasty pizza, super friendly service. I've known this restaurant for 9 years, just great

Loved this restaurant! The staff was super nice and we immediately felt transported to Italy when we walked in. The food was delicious (bolognese had an amazing flavor). Bruschetta was also very yummy. The only thing is that the lasagne had had more cheese than pasta.

Desastroso. Fuimos 9 personas y nos marchamos quedándose 3 de ellas sin cenar. Primero se olvidaron de poner en la comanda las lasañas, y después, nos las hicieron de carne cuando las habíamos pedido de verduras. Ni una mísera disculpa. Los entrantes llegaron después de las pizzas. Nunca se dirigieron a nosotros en español, y al final nos dimos cuenta de que una de las camareras lo hablaba perfectamente.

I went to dinner and we were 9 people. First, the starters arrived after having served 6 of the 9 diners; Second, they forgot an order of 3 vegetarian lasagna, when the rest of the diners finished eating we claimed the food and that was when they realized that they had not sent it to the kitchen. We waited 15 more minutes for them to bring them and they did so with 3 meat lasagnas, in addition to debating who came to the table to say it. THEY DIDN'T EVEN APOLOGIZE. I do not recommend the site at all.

The food was good, the girl who spoke Spanish was a bit borderline, but the English girl was very nice.

Jimmy's Pizzeria. I will go there again!

They don't know the difference between ham and bacon, or don't care. All ingredients are supermarket produce. Price is good. You pay a one-star price, you get one-star food.

Frozen pizza, I got a quattro formaggi and my girlfriend got a Toscana. I didn't have much expectation, but this is too much. Paying to eat a gummy pizza is not.

Very friendly staff. Correct prices. Very good pizzas. To repeat in Padington.

the place is dirty, the food is disgusting and there is a hair on the plate

Une expérience désagréable. Un samedi soir à 21h, un restaurant pratiquement vide où les serveuses arrivent quand même à oublier d’envoyer la commande en cuisine…assiettes arrivées à 21h50. Aucune excuses + aucune ambiance, coupure de musique…impression de déranger. Sans oublier, le poulet dur et le fromage sans goût (pour les pizzas)

The place is quite neglected, the walls are dirty and the tables better be covered even with paper. The service was terrible, and be careful, we paid in cash and the change was returned incorrectly, partly my fault for not knowing the value of the coins. It may be a mistake, the pizza is normal and adequate for the price.

We have just been there, the pizza was very bland, it has no flavor and on top of that we have realized that they have scammed us with the change, they should have given us 6 pounds and they have given us 50 cents

If you are italian you will cry And if you are not italian you will cry too A poor mozzarella without bread Pizza .... I can describe it Ciao!

Very efficient and friendly staff. The owner very unpleasant and ordinary. The stairs to go down to the bathroom are too steep, dangerous. Horror. Very good lazaña.

Teve um atendente excelente, porém tem uma mulher que nos atendeu super mal, trouxe o prato errado e quando dizendo que estava errado ela ficou com raiva. Nos atendeu, como se estivesse nos fazendo favor! Pizza com pouco recheio.

Nice staff. Very Italian. Good portion of food. Authentic taste. Reasonable price. Will definitely come back.

The food was delicious and the atmosphere was great. We enjoyed a Pizza Prosciutto e Funghi and Gnocchi Quattro Formaggi. It was really tasty, and the service was excellent. We were very happy with the value for money.

I found this restaurant was great! The staff were super friendly and the food was really good. Me and my friend came across it looking for somewhere to eat after a day in London and got a pizza to share which came super quickly.

Small little restaurant. Pizza was great!

Mit Service und bestelltem essen nicht zufrieden.Nicht zu empfehlen

Sitio muy agradable y trato encantador de parte de Laura, chica que conocía de España y que casualmente encontré trabajando en este establecimiento!! Recomendable 100%

Buscando para cenar encontramos este restaurante italiano, justo al entrar me atendió Laura que fue encantadora y encima de mi pueblo en España!! En el lugar fueron muy agradables, comida buena y un ambiente muy familiar, sonando música en castellano 😍 LAURA TOP 🔝 PD: Gracias a este establecimiento por facilitarle la vida a los extranjeros que buscan crecer en otro país 🔝🔝
