VyTA Covent Garden in City of London, Westminster

I booked seating on the balcony for anniversary drinks - what a spot! The view over the piazza is gorgeous, sitting in the sun watching the street performers. Delicious Cocktails too!

Superbe emplacement et déjeuner en terrasse avec soleil > l’endroit est très agréable. Coté plats, bon, c’est pas le top mais ça reste correct. 3,5 aurait été une note plus représentative.

Had a casual meal here recently before heading to a show and it was exactly what we wanted. It is all about the location, right in the centre of Covent Garden with a prime view of the street performers, so you pay for this accordingly. That being said, I didn't think the prices were too bad given the surroundings. The food itself is nothing particularly memorable or special, but it was tasty Italian fare and served exactly the purpose we needed on a warm summer evening. The mussel pasta portion was a little on the small side. Overall if you want a gourmet meal I would go somewhere else, but if you want something tasty while soaking up the atmosphere of Covent Garden then give this a try.

We visited for a meal after show. We was shown to a table outside in the sun. As is usual with British weather, it started to turn dark overhead! Before we could worry, the waiter came over and asked if we wanted to move inside now as it was going to rain. Everyone was kind and helpful and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

We visited here for a family friend’s birthday. We thought we’d be on the ground floor on the main square but instead we were seated in the cocktail rooftop bar. We reserved a table for 10 people. As a few of our party are overweight, it was a tight squeeze, but we all managed to fit after asking for additional chairs. The food looked amazing; it was a shame we didn’t eat there. The décor is stunning inside and out, it’s very modern and stylish. It’s not the cheapest place, but with the quality of the drinks and the surroundings it’s to be expected. It’s a shame there was only one male toilet in the premises, so if you need a toilet make sure you go before your bursting just in case there’s a queue. Overall, a nice place to visit for a few drinks, service was attentive and friendly. Wouldn’t be rushing back for drinks though as there’s lots of other bars in the area.

Unique location of Covent Garden gives this restaurant the perfect setting to relax, enjoy beautiful food and truly appreciate the great service. Although very busy, I waited just a moment to be shown to my table with a smile and warm welcome. Lovely atmosphere for all🤍

Ci hanno sistemato al piano di sopra in un balcone privato dove arrivava un odore forte di cucina, cocktail Negroni non certamente con dosi giuste e anche snack non erano eccezionali come servizio piuttosto disattento

Had an amazing lunch here the food was fabulous, the location is great we were outside undercover and could watch the world go by even though the weather was not great

We had a lovely group meal here. The meals were delicious, drinks were also great. Couldn’t fault our experience. Kasper was very attentive, making sure that we were well looked after and were happy with everything. We were also lucky enough to be seated outside, so we were able to enjoy the ambience of covent garden in the summer.

We waited for 15 minutes to order after we seated. The waiters were just talking to each other and they never came to take our orders. It's not worth it at all!!!

Overall 7.5/10 Diet Coke £4.50 Cacio e Pepe rigatoni £16 7.5/10 Genovese pappardelle £24 7/10 Prawn linguine £25 7.5/10 Octopus linguine £26 8/10 Total £95.5-30% reservation through “The Fork” =£76.73 Service 7/10 40 minute wait for food after ordering but waitress was so nice and apologetic. Location 10/10 prime real estate Covent Garden. Price 8/10 very fair value after -30% given location.

Totally tasteless bun and cream was very bland . Not enough toppings to balance the enormous amount of cream . I didn’t d in fact keep eating the whole bun as I was expecting it to have more filling inside . Alas no especially the Pistachio bun . Would not be returning for seconds. We took the buns home as it would be impossible to eat them on the go. No where to sit 🙁

The food was lovely, but the service was appalling. The main waiter was rude, condescending, unhelpful, and disrespectful. I have never been to a restaurant where there were so many tables free outside in the garden area, but was told you had to book them via the website. After booking online, whilst the waiter was standing there, we sat down, unable to choose the table we wanted, even though it was an empty restaurant, and none had been reserved, we were sat down, and as we ordered, the waiter asked us if we knew how much the drinks would be! It was like he thought we were not able to pay. Whilst we were eating our lunch, so many customers or potential customers left due to not having reserved a table online, even though throughout our hour and a half of sitting having lunch, the majority of tables were empty. As I said before, the food was lovely, but the service from the main male waiter was horrendous.

I visit Vyta yesterday with a friend for the first time, the food was tasty, the portion generous and the service incredible. Our waiter Neon was super helpful and the hostess Julia is an absolute angel , made the experience even better. Very attentive, always making sure that we were good. We will definitely come back!!!

Nice relaxing place in Covent Garden nothing special but place to relax and eat after busy day in London ! Not sure if coming again but not really issues there

VyTA - Since I discovered on instagram about these gorgeous buns my mouth had been watering ever since and since we were visiting London yesterday we went to Covent Garden to try and find the store Well they didn’t disappoint they were so lush 😋😋😋😋😋😋 just tasted as good as the photos on Instagram and I cannot wait to go back up to Covent Garden to get more 🧁🧁pistachio bun was 💖💖heavenly yummy

Fell for the TikTok and so annoyed I did. Queued for the cream bun and herded in and out like cattle of the small shop. Had no idea there was a restaurant behind so my husband and i queued to get a seat outside for a few drinks. Eventually got a seat and was immediately instructed that I was not allowed to eat the cream bun there that I was carrying in their cardboard box. Had a few drinks and felt like we were being watched incase I opened the box. Very unwelcome and had the bun back at our hotel and maybe because it was a few hours old it was so disappointing NOT worth the hype

Lovely pudding from the small shop in Covent Garden, London prices but we really enjoyed the chocolatey/brioche/creamyness

Just average. Thanks to the Instagram. We didn't dine at the restaurant. Just had the desert from the corner shop. wait 15 min for the famous desert. Nothing to fussy about. Yes, again we are the victims of the INSTA.

My pasta dish wasn’t great. It was extremely peppery and tasted of little else. Didn’t bother with dessert. Wine was good.

We had arranged a Christmassy day out, I had tried to book a few other restaurants I'd seen on Christmassy tik toks but they were full. VyTA looks lovely the decor is very nice but there was not one Christmas decoration up which was a shame, I was going to mark it down to 3/5 because of that but I feel that's a little unfair, if someone is reading a review in view to go in any other month. Every table in there has privacy which is nice, the waitress was lovely and attentive. Food: starters we had Bruschetta and the polenta and ragu both were 10/10 delicious (waitress recommended the polenta, not something I would have gone for ordinarily) Mains: veal ragu I wasn't overly keen I found it bland but the kids ate every scrap and my husband ate mine because he didn't like his burger so we agreed to swap, I tried his burger and it was ok, couldn't see why he didn't like it to be honest

A lovely moment - the staff were down to earth and very ‘human’, we were shown to our table outside under heaters where we felt we were in an oasis amidst the bustle just the other side of the glass screen. Good food (apart from undercooked cod which we were recompensed for by 15% of the cost of the dish) and great service. We hope to return one day.

A cozy and comfortable dining experience which was surpassed by the attentive hospitality. We as a family, dined inside downstairs in a cozy nook. The room was elegant with an Art Deco flair. The service was prompt, and soon we were hearing the pop of a bottle of red. The food was wholesome, tasty and presented well. What made the greatest impression, was the hospitality of our waitress. To capture, in a few words, she irradiated that feeling of someone who acctually enjoyed and was proud of her job! Milena was knowledgeable and passionate about the food she presented, and went the extra mile to make our visit a wonderful memory. We had a lovely time and will return.

Third time at VyTA.. whether on the terrace for drinks or inside, always an excellent experience! Love the spicey margaritas! Amazing service from Anastasija! Always attentive, incredible smile all the time, just absolutely one of the sweetest you'll ever meet! The food is quite good as well!

VyTA Covent Gardens provided a delightful experience for my partner and me. Opting for a seat on the balcony with Christmas decorations around, we enjoyed the warmth from the heaters and a captivating view. Our wine choices, Sangiovese for me and Sauvignon Blanc for my partner, were excellent. The service surpassed expectations, contributing to a thoroughly enjoyable visit.

Everywhere was busy and managed to get into VyTA. The food was amazing and the service, well was out of this world! I can say I’ve never been treated like that, thank you

Had sundowner wine and food here both of which were very good. We were lucky to be served by Anastasija who was very attentive and friendly. Lovely view, great atmosphere. Would recommend.

Had drinks on the rooftop bar of this restaurant. It’s a lovely bar the rooftop area is cute & looks over the square, good choice of drinks all the staff were good especially the lovely Italian girl that looked after us. Thanks for a lovely start to our evening.

Anastasija is the most brilliant face of this restaurant. Her service is tremendous. She remembered us and what we had the first visit. The food is fresh and fantastic. The welcome is authentic. Precisely what one would expect at Covent Garden. Five stars all the way. My second visit here. Beautiful in the balcony.

Fabio was a fab waiter, so attentive and lovely! The food was amazing to add to the service ! Such a great atmosphere, not all of the staff were as great as Fabio but he made up for the rest!

Visiting London on a sunny Thursday. We were looking for somewhere to have a late lunch. The service here is impeccable so friendly and really chatty - always wanting to know if everything is okay. We shared a bottle of the most beautiful dry rosé...

We were booked to eat at the ivy and popped into vyta for drinks we tried a few bitey bits ....needless to say we cancelled the ivy and had mains then dessert the staff were amazing especially paxci who couldn't do enough for us ....

I came here for dinner last night, and Fabio was our waiter. He was really helpful; especially with how he took time explaining the ingredients of the mocktails for me. He crouched down to my level, instead of doing this from above me. He checked...

Milena was possibly the warmest and most pleasant waitress I have ever been served by. The food was very nice but her attentive service and authentic charm was what made our evening.

Amazing, service, amazing cocktails and thank you Anastasija for looking after us and being perfect. Highly recommend for cocktails and nibbles. Great atmosphere. Safe adventure Anastasija

Excellent and attentive service from Gianluca for a post- theater pizza and drinks. He went out of his way to customize our pizza order and even brought me a special birthday dessert! The food was very good and the location is great - between the...

Fabio is the best waiter my friends and I have ever had! such a hard worker and so nice and truly cares about his customers.

We popped in for a cheeky cocktail which was delicious. This bar has seating outside near where the buskers were. Nice surroundings with efficient and friendly staff. Inside the premises it is a very intimate atmosphere and decorated well.

Perfect spot in middle of Covent Garden, beautiful balcony with delicious cocktails. Sadly our visit here was spoiled by a terribly rude waiter advising ‘you’ll have to shift’ as this table is booked …. Bearing in mind we’d only been in there 15mins - the...

Had a lovely solo “light” lunch at VyTA…didn’t want to overdo it before dinner later so had a few small plates (prawns, calamari & rosé) Milena was delightful, attentive & made great recos, highly recommend!

Fabulous lunch. Fabulous Fabio. Steak was amazing and the chips were next level. Would definitely recommend.

Fab place, fab drinks, fab food, topped off by our very attentive waitress Milena. Music was sooo good too.

Milena T was fabulous and kept checking in on how we were. What a superstar. Would highly recommend !

Very good evening. Lovely setting in Covent Garden with live entertainment on the square. Fabio the waiter is an absolute blessing. He is very attentive and personable. He does very well considering how busy it can get.

Milena was a fantastic server and couldn’t have more more attentive. Food and drinks were amazing and couldn’t have been a better atmosphere sat on the terrace 10/10

I emailed ahead of time with a special request for my dad which was very much adhered to. The service was amazing, especially Anastasija ( I hope that was her name, lovely Polish lady!) She was very knowlegdable on the menu and drinks. Plus she...

Stumbled across this place whilst wandering around Covent Garden looking for somewhere to have our pre-theatre dinner. All the front-of-house staff were very friendly and helpful in accommodating our last-minute booking. Anastasija helped make our dining experience a really enjoyable one. Not a cheap dinner...

A very busy place and not easy to book a table either online, going to front desk or speaking to a member of staff. How difficult is it to say yes or no? I persevered as I needed to book 10 in - didn't mind...

Great cocktails. Great terrace. Milena was fab! Reasonable price for Covent Garden. Good atmosphere on the terrace. Definitely recommended if you're there.

We had an absolutely brilliant night here. Not only is the food delicious and the atmosphere amazing, but we were spoilt by Fabio, who 100% made our night. We have never laughed so much, pranking his manager, Laura, and then she encouraged us to prank...

Milena has been absolutely fabulous! She was a dream waitress and gave us the best service ever! Thank you so much for making our night so much fun.

The location, food and drinks were amazing. The service was great and Milena really made our night. I’d definitely recommend!

Neon and Lidi were very kind and helpful. Great selections of cocktails and good heaters! Nice setting in Covent garden. Will come again

Had a lovely time here with friends. Milena took care of us with brilliant service. Great location on a summers evening.

A lovely meal with great service, attentive and although there were no clams, the food was lovely, the wine was too. No one was sat indoors during our lunch meal, but went in to use the toilet and the indoor interior was lovely, the balcony’s...

We visited on Sunday for my birthday! We were served my Melena who was just amazing!! Thank you melena for making our experience! :)

It was a wonderful night celebrating our anniversary. Good food and great service. Definitely be back soon.

A fantastic lunch, we were lucky enough to have the weather to sit outside and enjoy an Aperol spritz with some great food. The scallop trio are a must alongside the squid and truffle fries. Great service throughout. definitely worth a visit

Good food, great service by waitress Milena, nice atmosphere. Suitable for quick lunch as well as dinner with family or drinks with friends.

A day out in London with my teenage daughter and her two school friends. Milana our waitress was fun kind and very helpful. Her recommendations were spot on and the entire experience made our day trip extra special. Thank you.

Milena was the most amazing waitress ever, very attentive, chatty. She got to know us and we thought she was amazing

Really nice place, cosi, and atypique! The food was good, and the service by Milena was great ! We'll ve back for sure next time !

The food was fantastic and service from Milena was great. Good music / atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

The pasta was definitely value for money and the prawns were delicious, half way through my dish there were still lots of prawns available which the schedule did incredibly generous about. Have to say I was slightly disappointed at the scallops as they were a...

It was cold last week in London (go figure) and we saw the busy, heated outdoor seating in the market. The menu looked great with a wide appeal of dishes...my wife can be picky. We were confident VyTA had something for us. Since we had...

My boyfriend and I were looking for place close to Lyceum Theatre, and VyTA was the one. Both of us are still blown away by the food and service. Adam, our waiter, is a well-spoken gentleman with a great sense of humor. (While eating our...

We've been here to have a drink before dinner. The venue is very nice, drinks are good and prices honest. We seated at the table outside and the view on Covent Garden worth the visit. A special mention to Fabio, our waiter: the service has...

In the heart of Covent Garden- seating on the terrace , out on the plaza in Covent Garden and down in the basement. Was ushered down to the basement. Dark and claustrophobic but nice design. Empty when we got there but loads of people upstairs...

Great drinks and pizza. Evelyn C was so friendly and kind! Brav@! Near theaters and shows. Great environment and view

My friend and I visited this restaurant. When we got there it was not too busy and we were sat outside. We ordered our food and after taking a while to come it was incorrect, when this was questioned we were ignored and nothing was...

Almost walked right by this place in a flurry to find a place to eat. So glad we stopped by. Classic Italian fare with wonderful service. Evelyn was truly amazing. A cheerful face and attitude was just what we needed after a long day of...

You’d expect this to be typical tourist stuff - get them in, get them out, middle of the road offering. It isn’t. It’s fab. Whether for a drink and nibbles whilst the world goes in around Covent Garden or a meal on the outside balcony....

We stopped by for a drink and our waiter called Fabio c was attentive, knowledgeable and really nice!! He looked after us and made this a special pre dinner event!! Thanks Fabio!!!

Really lovely experience. Service was great with special mention to Anastasia. She was very friendly and provided service which made the evening flow that much better. Food was great too and very reasonably priced!

I've been in Vyta for dinner few weeks ago and I got the best dinner that I ever had in London. Best Italian restaurant in London, very reccommended!!

Excellent Atmosphere and Superb authentic Italian Food. The Kale Salad was Outstanding and Melina the Gorgeous waiter attended to us with grace and perfection.

Nice atmosphere, amazing food and drinks, me and my family had a dinner for my mother’s birthday, my food was Homemade Pappardelle with Slow Cooked Beef, Caramelized Onion and Parmesan Cheese, highly recommended!!

I went to Vyta Covent Garden with my friends, we found it to be a very nice place, the food and drinks were delicious. My favourite dish was aubergine pasta, it was very delicious.

Very nice food and stunning drinks. The Negroni was delicious and the Sea Bream was perfectly cooked

Very pleasant dinner, especially the Chef recommended us some fabulous dishes like Pan Seared Scallops, Smoked Burrata, Polenta Chips, Homemade Gnocchi with Deer Ragu and Ox Cheek with Mash Potatoes. Absolutely coming back.

Covent Garden is lively !!! and many places to eat, drink and soak up the atmosphere. Vyta has '' outside seating '' with above heaters, much needed on a winter evening, Great place to watch the world go by enjoying a glass of wine and...

This was absolutely amazing. We stumbled on this accidentally, but once we were lead downstairs we knew this was the place to be! The decor of the restaurant is not only sophisticated, but also makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. With the groovy music from...

This was our first time eating at the restaurante and we absolutely loved it. It had a nice atmosphere, with amazing live music, and we were very nicely served by Milena. We hope to come back soon!

My family had a great meal at Vyta. Tried all the recommendations of our server Evelyn. The ox cheek dinner was amazing and very flavorful. The pappardelle pasta which was good however my son said there were a lot of onions. The prawn pasta had...

Beautiful space, could've stayed all day 😍. Very cool decor, staff very friendly v and efficient. Would definitely rewritten. Food looked really good too.

Great little bar spread over the roof terrace and outside of Covent Garden - great attentive and friendly service from Anastasija too - couldn’t recommend enough. The vyta sour is definitely one to try

Amazing bar! Situated in the hustle and bustle of Covent Garden! Very welcoming and made space for us even though very busy! Big thank you to Anastasija D for the service she was very accommodating

We stopped on a whim and were pleasantly surprised. The cheese plate was both excellent and substantial. We shared the fig salad and the vegetable pizza. They were both very good and filling.

Great food, great atmosphere, lovely booth, lovely, great service with very personable staff. Milena was very attentive, friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this restaurant.

We had a beautiful lunch here on a sunny November Saturday. Was able to eat outside and watch the world go by. The service was amazing and the food delicious. Highly recommended.
