The best restaurants serving Italian food in Islington London

Came here with my family and had a great experience, food was great, customer service was also great. Will be coming back again for sure

He estado en 89 redes sociales un par de veces. Anoche pasé con mi gf y la vibra era demasiado difícil de ignorar. Piano y saxo. Sentado afuera. Terminé teniendo una botella y unos platos de pasta FANTÁSTICOS. La pasta sabía como si fuera hecha en casa por la abuela italiana del jefe. El entusiasmo al explorar la carta de vinos, establecimiento fenomenal. Gran lugar, gran gente. ¡No lo dudes!

Necesitaba un poco de queso después de una borrachera de vino cerca. Este lugar vende el equivalente metafórico de Queso Clase A, y lo cortarán por ti. Tenga cuidado, también le venderán galletas acompañantes.

Found this place while strolling around, so very glad we did! My husband and I had calzone that was heavenly and the price was so reasonable.

Encontré este por casualidad. El café y bocadillos aquí son muy superiores a los grandes nombres de marca. El café es delicioso. El pan es fresco y se puede ver que el personal allí es muy servicial.

No pases por este lugar como casi lo hago. Tuvimos la tortilla más increíble, ensalada con aderezo increíble, buen café y jugo de naranja recién prensado. Claramente un negocio que se enorgullece de lo que sirve a sus clientes. Bonito ambiente, lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Fantastic place to grab quality lunch and sit in the sunshine and watch the world and its wife go by. Friendly hospitality and great service with a wide range of Italian foods and wines and even bottles of Peroni Red Label. Our food was freshly made and very tasty. Great example of green credentials with shelves and flooring from rescued wood that gives it a fantastic feel and atmosphere.

In Islington noord Londen, te gast. In de buurt bij la Taberna binnen gelopen. Direct zeer gastvrij welkom geheten door de eigenaar. Mooie Italiaanse kaart , lekkere huiswijn. Supervriendelijke bediening. Familie staat in de keuken en verzorgt perfect eten. Helemaal goed.

¡Esta es una joya! Excelente gnosh y fenomenal (verdaderamente! ) servicio! Venga y tome una burrata y pizzatta Bianca - beso del chef!

Best pizza in London! I did a Google search for the best pizza in London and I have to say that Oi Vita did not disappoint! We started with olives, which are served nice and cool within a leave of radicchio with tomato. Wonderful. Then a sampler from the kitchen, focaccia with a touch of tomato on top. Then we indulged in the pizza. My favorite was the Cacio e Pepe. It was really good with fresh burrata topping. We also shared a very nice bottle of multipuciano. The staff were wonderful and attentive from the moment we arrived. Friendly greeting and entertaining. Highly recommend!!!

The food was tasteful, but some dishes were not prepared correctly (seafood risotto was a seafood rice) and food not worth the price.

Questo cafe si trova a pochi minuti da Church Street e offre una selezione di squisiti piatti a prezzi accessibili. Perfetto per provare l'esperienza del brunch inglese con alternative anche più nostrane come la famosa Caponata. Il caffè è superlativo se siete stufi delle minestre che ti servono di Costa coffee. Lo staff parla anche italiano. Lo consiglio assolutamente!

Good food, but shockingly poor service — not kid-friendly We were hopeful given the menu, but the experience quickly soured. It took over 20 minutes (and a reminder) just to get menus. Staff then seemed irritated that we needed a few minutes to choose. The real issue came when our toddler accidentally bumped her head and started crying — instead of offering any understanding, we were abruptly asked to pay and leave, even though two of us hadn’t finished eating. This is clearly not a kid-friendly place. Disappointing, as the food was genuinely good. EDIT (following owners' response): I can confirm that I did visit your restaurant on the evening of 2nd May 2025. I understand this may not reflect your usual service or values, and perhaps it was an off day — but this was our experience, and it felt dismissive and uncomfortable, especially given we chose your place thinking a family-run business would be welcoming to young children. I hope future guests are treated with more care.

Tiny, cosy place serving up some of the most delicious food I have ever eaten. Do not be put off by the modest exterior -- once you start eating, you will be amazed.
