The best restaurants serving Italian food in South Richmond Richmond upon Thames London

This restaurant is no longer in business at this location- which is why I gave one star. I was very much looking forward to eating here since gluten- free options are often so limited. I had heard very good things about this restaurant and was disappointed to see it gone!

Several Italian eateries have opened in Richmond in the past few months but this is the place to have a really good Italian meal. The owner and chef Hercules is always in the kitchen and patrolling the restaurant to make sure everything is shipshape. We have been a number of times with friends outside Richmond and they are all envious that we have this local Italian. My wife and I have been through the entire menu and we have never had a bad meal here. The place is small and intimate but by no means cramped. There is the beautiful St Marys Magdalene church within 2 minutes walk and that is worth a visit before or after lunch.

Whicker touring the Yorkshire Dales, we visited Richmond. This was a lovely busy little town with lots of shops and an indoor market. Everywhere seemed dog friendly.

Great service and atmosphere on Valentine’s Day - great American waiter who was so effortlessly amazing. He did everything without doing too much. Food was delicious and very quick considering it was a packed restaurant - delicious as always

The food is prepared with love and served with kindness and a smile. George and Deborah offer homemade food that will make you smile. You may need a few minutes of patience to find a place at the food stall (especially during busy hours). Once you are seated, get ready for a lunch that you will want to repeat soon.

Fabulous. Unique for the area, an amazing experience

Esta fue nuestra segunda visita a este Restaurante (la última vez hace unos años), y como antes ambos optamos por la Carbonara. Incluso mejor que nuestra última visita. Increíble cómo pueden resultar tan excelente comida en una cocina tan pequeña. Muy recomendable

Weird-lots of good reviews so thought we were going to be in for a treat! Very friendly, wine great, menu very Italian, good so far. Hints and echos of what could be good traditional food but missed the mark by too much twill not risk visiting again. Bruschetta: has to be made with the best tomatoes and if they are not in season, don’t bother putting on menu. Tomatoes were anaemic, probably from Holland! Melanzane Parmigiana: almost okay but cheese was more like that in a Domino’s pizza, not quite right. Spaghetti Carbonara: far too heavy, stodgy and super salty. This should be a thing of lightness and balance of taste. The bacon is salty so you must use Pecorino to balance the saltiness. You should not use a Domino’s stringy heavy cheese! Could go on but can’t be bothered.

I should have eaten the pasta instead. Great service

Thanks John for the great customer service! ⭐️

The worst chai latte in my life. It was spicy and not sweet at all, just bitter and spicy as if I was drinking pure turmeric spice. Small cup for £3.80 and I had to throw it in the bin because I could not finish the drink they made whatever it was.

Absolutely amazing venue and experience! We had my son’s leaving / birthday party there yesterday and it was absolutely phenomenal! We brought some games with us for the boys (18 in total) to play, but other than that and the cake everything was provided! Everyone had an amazing time! The staff were amazing - went over and above the call of duty and the pizza was delicious - HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND - we all had a blast!

Really poor experience, loads of tables just left in a state after people had finished eating. We were sat at a table that had to be wiped down around us. My partners carbonara was like warm but meat burnt so sent back and therefore didn’t eat together. My lasagne luke warm but didn’t send back as bloody hungry. Use to be really good but wouldn’t recommend to your dog, considering this has cost circa £60 for 2. Go somewhere else as Richmond has better places to eat.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bacco Restaurant and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the cozy, authentic atmosphere made us feel like we were transported straight to Italy. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations from their extensive wine list and menu.

Fantástica auténtica cocina italiana y pizza. Muy recomendable. Siempre una noche maravillosa con un ambiente cálido y acogedor!
