The best restaurants serving Italian food in London

Good quality - will order again

Took 2 hours for x2 pizzas to be delivered. Wouldn't recommend unless you want to wait that long for food.

I ordered a ravioli with lobster and shrimp. Small and tasteless. The pizza is oval and has the same problem, it is not the best and minimal. The wine list is great.

We had such a great time at the kids’ pizza-making party! It was fun, interactive, and perfect for all the little chefs. The kids absolutely loved getting hands-on with the dough, choosing their own toppings, and seeing their creations come to life in the oven. A special shoutout to Emily, who was absolutely wonderful—so patient, enthusiastic, and great with the kids. She made the whole experience extra special and kept everything running smoothly. Highly recommend for a fun and memorable activity for kids.

Had the Romana Padana, absolutely delicious! Thank you so much Sebastian for your kindness and hospitality.

Food not the best- lasagna was nuked and hence really dry, pasta dish was not even seasoned - very bland...

Rossopomodoro carbonara is pure comfort on a plate great atmosphere and friendly service make it even better

Delicious Italian food in the center of London. I recommend it

A really disappointing experience – not what you’d expect from Alto I’ve been to Alto at Selfridges a few times over the years. It’s never really been about the food – more about the setting and rooftop vibe, which is always quite nice. But this time was different, and honestly, it was so poor I felt compelled to leave a review. I ordered the ravioli and asked if they could swap the white sauce for a simple butter and sage. The waiter told me that butter and sage is “out of season” in summer, which sounded bizarre. Anyway, they wouldn’t make the change, so I had to go with the dish as it was. When it arrived, I was shocked to find just three regular-sized ravioli on the plate – and this was supposed to be a main course. It didn’t make any sense for the price they were charging. But what really let the experience down was the service. The waiter we had was quite rude and just had this really dismissive attitude. We asked for a Diet Coke and were looked at like we’d made some ridiculous request. Pretty much every time we asked for anything, it was met with an eye-roll or a sigh. The general vibe from the staff was unfriendly and, frankly, arrogant. To top it off, I noticed how scruffy the waiters looked – shirts that weren’t really white anymore, stained and crumpled waistcoats. It felt really off-putting for what’s meant to be a premium restaurant in such a high-end location. This was meant to be my birthday lunch, and it just ended up feeling disappointing and awkward. They brought out one lonely profiterole on a plate with “Happy Birthday” written on it – no chocolate, no effort, and despite there being two of us at the table. It felt like an afterthought. I dont usually complain, but I did ask them to remove the service charge this time. The whole experience felt careless and underwhelming, and I don’t think I’ll be going back again.

The food was great, and the service even better

El restaurante estaba bastante vacío para empezar, así que fue rápido para sentarse. Pregunté a uno de los camareros si podían desbloquear el inodoro para discapacitados porque mi amiga está embarazada y las mujeres estaban fuera o pedir pero me dijeron que no. La comida era rápida y era algo tibia pero muy sabrosa. Nunca me vieron demasiado por el personal después de que nos quitaron la comida, nunca me preguntaron si queríamos más bebidas o desiertos. Pedí la cuenta varias veces, pero me ignoraron, afortunadamente usamos un vale que compró el precio porque en mi opinión la comida no vale la pena el precio.

Pizza Express is always our ‘go to’ place to eat when out with my friends. We have eaten in many of their restaurants around the country. I had booked a table in advance as we were coming to London on a coach trip from Essex to see a show. However the traffic was bad and we were running late. I phoned in advance to worn them that we were running late and was told they were happy to keep the table for us. We arrived fifteen minutes late and after a quick apology from me we were shown to our table. We were greeting by a lovely waitress Amy and explained that we had a theatre booking and had to be finished within the hour. Amy said that was ok and took our drinks order and food order together. Our food and drinks arrived in really good timing. All delicious as usual. Nice and hot and very tasty. The drinks were also really good two. The service as so speedy and we even managed to have time for some desserts. Overall a lovely experience as always. The restaurant was clean and tidy. The staff very smiley and helpful. Thank you Amy for your great services. The restaurant setting is really ideal for those wanting food before or after shows or just visiting the sights of Piccadilly.

ALIMENTOS FRÍOS Pedí una pizza y nudos de ajo a mi hotel que estaba a poco más de una milla de distancia y la comida llegó fría como piedra. Ni siquiera hacía calor. Por favor, hazte un favor y orden de otro lado.

Disfruté del expreso macchiato y delicioso croissant relleno de pistacho. Me sentí como en Milán. Buen ambiente y el personal es muy amable. Sin duda volveré pronto

¡Debes probar el sándwich de pollo y espinacas! ¡Tostado por supuesto! El sándwich es un poco caro, ¡pero ese pan es fenomenal! Definitivamente vale la pena
