Laghi's

"Visited this stylish and boho chic restaurant on my way back from work. The place seemed nice and warm and the staff very welcoming and confident. Decided after a quick read at the menu to go for the special lunch set menu with 3 courses. Food came quickly and the entrée that I ordered was looking incredible and almost out of Michelin star restaurant. When I first tasted the burrata it seemed fizzing up on my tongue and gave the feeling of warmth. I then asked for bread and tried it again. It was spoiled as if it was left out the fridge for too long. I couldn’t even have another bite as my tongue was on fire. I asked to just take it back as it tasted off the first answer a bit too rushed was ‘ it’s fresh we got it delivered this morning’ as if I was lying or something. I then asked for the second course cause I just wanted to forget that awful taste. Then I was served the spaghetti with 3 prawns and left speechless; the portion was absolutely not enough to feed a toddler and even if the taste was pleasant it was not possible to dive fully in it as the portion was absolutely ridiculous. For dessert I got a slice ( being generous calling it slice to be completely honest) of tiramisu. Nothing to die for, quite standard tasting. Then I decided to wash it all down with an espresso to forget the gruesome lunch and I was presented a very cute combination of treats and sweets again with a horrible burned coffee. I’m not sure if the lack of portion, lack of attention and freshness of the products is compensated with the aesthetic insides but as it is called deli I was expecting something a bit more refined food wise. I just don’t think they are as passionate about Italian food as they state in their front door. All that and the price was a bit salty for a set menu, with a completely empty restaurant and for the calibre of the food. Loads of micro-greens and great presentation for a whole load of nothing."

"This restaurant left me with a bittersweet aftertaste. Tasty food but unreasonably small portions. Nice atmosphere, but the most uncomfortable chairs ever. They're just a slab of wood (see pic), to a point it was painful to sit after half an hour or so. The food is tasty and has my seal of approval as an Italian, but the portion are too small for the price - not a good value for money. The half main option is a joke, £7-8 for barely a taste (see pic). The full main portion is slightly better, but still not good enough. The staff was ok overall, not the most friendly or attentive though. What a pity, the place has potential but my experience made it feel like a wasted opportunity."

"The food was really good and perfectly cooked! The servings were on the small side, however, even for the full size plates - which is why I’m giving 4*. Overall the service was incredible and the ambience was so romantic. The best dish was definitely the rabbit ravioli, the truffle sauce was so balanced without being too mild or overpowering. The other dishes we tried were pretty good too, but definitely not as outstanding as the rabbit."

"Food overall was pretty good and tasty, only gripe is the portion sizes are very small, especially the sharing portions, pictured above. Service was really good, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes. Atmosphere is nice and would be better but I had the unlucky experience of going at the same time with tons of screaming kids, running around all over the place."

"it opens at 10:00 but you can order the lunch menus only after 12:00, before that you can only have sandwiches and drinks. arrived 11:30 and waited for the kitchen to operate while having americano(very strong so had to add milk) enjoyed the pasta very much but cheese on the pizza felt a bit stiff to me."
