The best restaurants serving Italian food in Bunhill Islington London

Best brunch I have ever had! Staff were really friendly and attentive- nothing was too much trouble. And the brunch was so generous. Tasty pizza too. Will definitely be back!

Absolutely superb dining experience. You can tell that the chef takes what he does personally and puts his heart & soul into his creations. We are already looking forward to our return visit. Superb, superb, superb...

Great place for a quiet lunch break. Come here every week at least once and it is the highlight of my lunchbreaks. Anna and the team make sure all is sorted quickly and to the highest standard. Many thanks

When a restaurant says its ethos is ‘Uncomplicated Excellence’ and it delivers exactly that, you have found something very special. Add to that the warm welcome from the owner and his team and you are onto a winner. A family night out at Pasta Nostra was exceptional. Don’t be put off by the simplicity of the menu, everything was delcious and you can taste the love that goes into every dish. We shared all of the Cichetti (Italian appetisers) family style and thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. As others have said, the Focaccia is extraordinarily good so don’t miss out on that. The pastas were all delicious and ‘hand on heart’ I can say that my Charcoal Tagliolini with King Prawns was the best pasta dish I have ever had in a Restaurant! If you make it to Dolci/Dessert, the Cannolo with ricotta and pistachio was perfection, especially so with a side of their Orange Gelato! So my recommendation is go, eat and enjoy - Buon Apetito!

Really exceptional vegan food. Very tasty and inventive. You can take your non vegan friends too Amazing tiramisu!! Had to stop myself from licking the plate! The service was friendly and attentive. The only thing that wasn’t perfect was that I felt the tables are a little too close together so a bit uncomfortable when sitting so close to others, especially if on a date, but it is a small venue to I guess that can’t be helped.

So sad to hear that Baracca has closed. Remo, Yvonne and Alain were always so welcoming and nothing was ever too much trouble. It was 'The Old Birds' favourite restaurant, and the Christmas season started with a lunch at Baracca. Wishing the "Baracca Family" all the very best in their retirement and thanking them for being a part of and helping to create so many happy and special memories. You will all be missed xx

Pizza was delicious! And staff very friendly. I will return for another slice soon 🍕👌

My partner and I were in the area and decided to try this restaurant. The service from Jessica was amazing, super nice and friendly. We tried fried raviolo and panko lasagna, they were really good! the pasta seemed freshly made, both pappardelle and spaghetti were really good. Beef ragu tasted like an homemade one that reminded me of home. Tiramisu was good but I would put more mascarpone cream. Overall I really like eating at the restaurant. I wouldn't say it was to die for, but I enjoyed the meal and the ambience. As for the price, I personally think it was a bit expensive, but in line with restaurant prices in Fitzrovia and in London in general.

Such a lovely hidden gem with the most welcoming host and incredible food. Would definitely come back and recommend to friends and family. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Business friends/contacts take me to this little gem. Food is excellent, service is faultless and the price is very reasonable. Give it a try!

I would like to start to confirm that the food was excellent. The service was poor, extremely rushed and pressured, not an enjoyable experience at all. The sommelier was equally uninterested, not unfriendly but had other things on his mind. Even when we were leaving, the were more interested in queuing up for their own meal than getting our coats which we got ourselves, no goodbye or thank you. Our first time here, not a pleasant experience.

¡Me gustó tanto la comida aquí que ni siquiera pensé en tomar fotos cuando llegaron los platos! ! El entrante de verduras tempura con salvia frita fue un gran abridor. A esto le siguió el famoso Cacio e Pepe y varios otros platos de pasta deliciosos. Nos sentamos en una mesa grande y encantadora cerca del paso de los chefs, por lo que la emoción de ver los platos que se estaban preparando ayudó a abrir el apetito. Este es un lugar habitual mío ahora. No puedo esperar a la reapertura después de esta crisis de Covid - 19.

Nothing bad about this place, it's very tired and food is okay and nothing to write home about. Shame as that extra little effort on the dishes with some flavours, more fresh produce would make a big difference for what they charge. The hole where evidently there was a lamp on every table being pat he'd up pretty much says it all, must have taken time and effort but a new table cloth (even if still plastic!) may have looked smarter. £40/head okay for location, just shame that little extra effort would shine considering its right in the City.

Nos alojamos en El Alba Marble Arch Londres durante el fin de semana del 19 y 20 de diciembre.

Every plate we ordered was superb, especially the pasta dishes. The crown has to go to the bucatini with cream and pecorino, so good. Great setting and service too.
