The best restaurants serving Italian food in Lambeth London

The worst bottomless brunch I’ve ever been too. Myself and friends had a booking at this restaurant for a bottomless brunch. I am a coeliac so I rang up in advance to see what my food options were, to be told there wasn’t any over the phone, to then they finally said they could to a toast option. Once we got to the restaurant we put in our food order within the first 10 mins of our reservation. We were told they had run out of most of the options on the menu, even though it was 5pm on a Saturday. An hour and a half into the reservation we still hadn’t received our food, we asked the waiter why it was taking so long and that we simply couldn’t drink anymore of the alcohol as we hadn’t eaten (we were also told the bottles we hadn’t finished would be taken away at 7). At 6:55, 5 minutes before the end of our reservation we were told they needed the table and we were to pay the bill including the food that we still had NOT received. After complaining about the wait we were given a not so generous 20 minutes to eat our food and leave. They did knock money off the bill, but to say we were disappointed was an understatement, and the food was awful. This is not suitable for people with allergens at all, in 2023 it’s shocking that the only option I was offered is toast. It is not good enough that a ‘restaurant’ cannot cater to food allergies. Do not recommend!

He comido aquí muchas veces y nunca he tenido una experiencia negativa. La pizza es genial y me encantan los risottos, a menudo ordeno el menú de especialidades. Recientemente tuve una ensalada con burrata, que también fue muy bueno también. Los cócteles son geniales y hacen una buena hora feliz. El personal es amable y la comida llega rápidamente. Es un ambiente divertido y, aunque siempre está bastante ocupado, nunca tuve que esperar a una mesa. Continuaré regresando.

Fab karaoke night on a Wednesday with a great host, nice staff and it’s an attractive venue, but loses marks for the unfriendly management. The point of a venue when you’re spending money is to make you feel welcome. A simple smile would suffice but it’s not happening here. Shame.
