Hello. I came here last week with a few friends. I ordered spaghetti carbonara. It was made with cream and lots of oil. This is not a traditional carbonara. A traditional one is much nicer and very easy to make! It was disappointing and I couldn’t eat the meal. The man serving me was lovely but does need to be aware that technically this wasn’t a traditional Italian dish, I am half Italian and know! Thanks

Went here on a midweek evening. The service was warm and welcoming from the off. Attentive friendly staff who aren’t overbearing and let us feel very comfortable. The menu is fairly short but adequate to find a mixture of vegetarian and meat courses. We both had pasta and I found mine to be of very high quality. A sausage tomato dish which was wonderful. The food had a home cooking kind of feel, as if it was a family restaurant. For dessert I went with the tiramisu and felt it was a bit small.

We were looking for somewhere to get a bite to eat before seeing a show at the Barbican, but we were delighted - we both had some of the tastiest Italian food that we had ever had (risotto and pasta). The staff were very pleasant, and ensured that we were able to eat in time before the show. We had a lovely meal, and it is on our list of places to back to, just to enjoy the food, regardless of whether we have a show to see.

An institution! Wonderful food from this restaurant that has been a part of London for years. There's a relatively small menu, but with traditional Italian classics, not the anglicised version (thankfully). They have set menus as well, but we settled for a main course during lunch. The pasta was excellent, perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. Probably one of the best pasta dishes I've had in the UK. Friendly service, a small amount of seating, and it does get busy during lunch service. Would recommend

I booked a table at this local restaurant to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Due to busy lives, we only go out 3 or 4 times a year and in recent years have almost always used this restaurant. We arrived at the appointed time to discover no table reserved or available. No apology was given. Total disaster! Returned home, the occasion ruined. I went back the next day to double-check that I had not booked the wrong day. The booking was there, the first name on the page written in capital letters. They did not appear to be concerned by what had happened or its implications.

Remember this restaurant from years ago and it hasn't lost any of its charm. Yes it is like stepping back in time but in a good way. This is a million miles from all the corporate chains so if that's what you want go elsewhere. But for a honest welcome, fresh seasonal food cooked in the kitchen that from our table we could see, then this is my idea of a great local restaurant. Just wish it was local to me. Of particular mention was my asparagus and goats cheese starter (heaven) and my husbands fish for main although everything else was good and very decent price considering location. Also things like the delicious olives were included whereas I had been charged £6 for them elsewhere for lunch and there weren't as nice. Hope to make it back there very soon.

I went here a couple of years ago and I was so pleased to find this gem, the food and staff were great. I revisited last week and while the staff were still great the food was not, change of chef maybe? I even ordered 1 dish the same as before as I liked it so much, chilli chicken livers, this time it was bland, no chilli at all. The seafood spaghetti was dry, looked and tasted like it had been made with cheap pre-frozen seafood you get from a supermarket, and was overcooked. The porcini ravioli didnt taste of porcini at all, just ravioli filled with a bland brown paste. Such a shame.

I used to go in here for lunch sometimes, more than 10 years ago. This time we were going to a concert at the Barbican and my first thought was to book us into one of the restaurants there. But they had no space and I’m SO GLAD because it forced me to remember Vecchio Parioli and we had the most lovely time in there. Among the four of us we had cod, pasta and veal. All reported as delicious! Service was fast and friendly and the atmosphere is very perfectly family-restaurant. It’s unashamedly old-school, calm, and pleasant. We also had a lovely bottle of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo which went down very well. We made it to our concert ok but on a future occasion I will allow more time so I can enjoy this great restaurant thoroughly.

What a gem of a find this place is. Did some research and booked it for dinner with close friend and am so pleased. It is a small family run restaurant that has authentic italian feel to it. So quaint and peaceful, the food was exceptional. The prices are amazingly reasonable and the quality/quantity don’t justify the prices either. I had the grilled vegetables and cheese platter and my friend had king prawns which she said was soul warming. I then had a pasta from the set menu as a la carte which the restaurant happily obliged to, and she had the salmon. We had the home made tiramisu which was the best Ive had too. 100% recommended if you want authentic italian tastes with fair prices.

My wife and I stumbled on this great little Italian restaurant on our first meal together 7+ years ago. We were both struck then by how good the food was, and I'm pleased to report that nothing has changed. I had a really tasty minestrone followed by the best gnocchi dish I've ever had - real depth of flavour. My wife's pollo alla Milanese was top-notch, too, and all brought to us by friendly staff. I'd highly recommend a visit if you're in the area.

Very authentic Italian food. Every pasta is delicious, and the grilled seabass is also excellent (but there are more fish bones, so be careful and don't talk when eating). Because I live nearby, I used this restaurant as a New Year's Eve dinner venue during the Chinese New Year. I was not disappointed. The food here is delicious and the service is also very good. The caramel pudding is sweet but not greasy, with the fragrance of lemon. The seafood pasta dish costing 16.60 pounds is my favorite. When I eat it, I feel like I am in the Mediterranean and I can feel the Mediterranean sea breeze🥰 Will come again in the future! 😁

Food is served hot and in a timely manner. Only down point is there is there should be 2 waiters instead of 1 to cover the 12 tables. Overall a good experience and will be back.

I am so glad we found this Italian Restaurant - close to the Barbican Concert Hall. It was a true Retro experience. Linen Table Cloths, Linen Napkins, Bread and olives were complementary - Just as all restaurants used to be! We really appreciated these small touches - which is the sign of a good professionally run restaurant. The night we attended it was completely full - always a good sign. It was very atmospheric and buzzing. My only criticism is that the service was slow. I guess is that the food is all freshly prepared the kitchen was overloaded and could not get it out fast enough. However, the only waiter and his assistant worked extremely hard to satisfy their customers. We shall certainly return if we are in that location again. Well done to keep these family restaurants going - they are fast disappearing!

I was dining there and, as there was only one other table occupied throughout my meal, it was sufficiently quiet to overhear the server talking badly about the other table with the kitchen staff in the back, given the open layout of the kitchen. It was approximately 9:00 when I wanted to order dessert, as they closed at 11:00. They declined my request for dessert in honestly a really mean way, but I didn't dispute it; I simply stayed quiet. I'm unsure if they have transitioned into impolite staff, which might explain the very slow service, i’m not from london? Writing negative reviews isn't my preference, so I'm sharing my experience on my anonymous account. The main server who was publicly rude to the guest and myself was a white older male, not much information because i just wanted to leave with my head low.

A truly terrible risotto - basically stodgy rice with no flavour - I felt cheated by having to pay for this. On more of a positive note the house wine was excellent and so were the olives. Both of which were sorely needed to provide some flavour. The rest of the food was okay and service was very good. Generally, for what appeared to be an authentic Italian restaurant one expects...

Came on a Friday night, was served what looked like hovis white bread and the antipasti was wafer thin £2 ham from Tesco , told the waiter I’d never been felt like a fool of in a restaurant before, and he was defensive and unbelievably admitted it was from Tesco as they were low on supplies. Surely just tell the customer you’re out of antipasti, and not charge £10 for it. Olives were also admitted to be from Tesco. My girlfriend was also convinced the pasta was just a pasta mix from Tesco and she had 3 mouthfuls. At this point, we were so shocked, we ended up just laughing in disbelief and had a 5/10 min chat with the waiter at the end of the meal to give him our thoughts. We asked for the service to be removed (which we never do), and he said brexit was the reason for hovis bread. Where I sympathise more than ever at rising costs, it was a real middle finger to the customer how many corners this place cut corners. Probably the worst meal I’ve ever had in London. My anger however, is aimed at the management, who put their staff through this ordeal. We also saw another table angry at them for similar reasons. Surely just say it’s out of stock instead of insulting people spending hard earned cash (£80 in our experience), instead of serving Tesco items. I said to the waiter, if I wanted to eat Tesco food, I’d spend £10 at Tesco, not £80 on a night out at a restaurant. Please avoid this excuse of a restaurant. You’re likely to have an awful experience. They didn’t even offer to take anything off the hill, hence the asking us to remove the service charge. A total and utter con.

It is authentic in a rustic way. For example, the chicken liver soup I ordered is quite like a mama style home soup and it contains a big portion of livers. But it is too large that I felt quite fed up already after this appetizer. The pasta is Al Dente but seafood coming with it is mediocre or lack of complexity. I still like it, but the flavor could be further improved to contain more elements. Tiramisu is homemade and quite alcohol heavy in taste. In sum, a good choice to experience homie cuisine. Maybe not for formal occasion.

Ristorante pessimo, sono andato con la mia famiglia, abbiamo trovato un capello nel piatto e siamo stati accusati dallo chef di essere stati noi a mettercelo. Abbiamo pagato e siamo scappati disgustati. Posto da sconsigliare a tutti. Chef maleducato cafone e sporco.

In poche parole pessimo, sconsigliato. Dopo aver mangiato sono uscita mi sono sentita male ed ho vomitato

Out of Barbican and straight in to this fabulous little restaurant- served asparagus risotto and porcini ravioli followed by tasty tiramisu. Waiter very welcoming even though we arrived late without a reservation. Super atmosphere

Went here on a Saturday night with no booking and there was plenty of space. Had the sausage pasta (cannot remember the name) and it was absolutely delicious. Service was quick and friendly. The inside of the restaurant has lots of natural light and everyone who was there seemed to be enjoying their food. This also seems like it's a family business, which is always good to support. Highly, highly recommend if you are in the area or are going to a performance at the Barbican-- 1 minute away by walk.

Fantastic service from friendly helpful people. Great food full if flavour. We tried several dishes including the 4 cheese gnocchi and the lasagna all of which were excellent. Thank you for such a pleasant evening

Pepe serves great Italian street food in a great variety. Visitors can dine on pizza, pasta and other Italian-style cuisine. Pepe is popular with local residents and visiting tourists. My partner and me loved Pepe, we had a great tasty Italian lunch in London.

Las mesas están tan juntas que hay muchas mesas para el espacio. Camarero acaba de tirar bebidas en la mesa, tuvimos que perseguir a los camareros para conseguir cualquier servicio. Nos dijeron que sería una espera de 40 minutos para la comida, así que cuando llegó en 20 que era bueno, aparte de las patatas fritas estaban mal cocidas y frías. Los postres estaban destinados a ser calientes, pero llegaron fríos. Nadie preguntó cómo estaba la comida, pagamos la comida y las bebidas y nos fuimos después de obtener el cargo por servicio de casi £ 10 eliminado de la factura.

Everything about this place is amazing! Food comes in small portions - as tapas - which is great for people who want to try a bit of everything !! The staff were extremely friendly, fun and meticulous in their service. We had a great time there !! Grazie Mille!!
