Locanda Ottoemezzo 2-4 Thackeray Street, London W8 5ET

"Had Dinner with my husband in Locanda Ottoemezzo, love the vibe in here. Pasta was good and the dessert was amazing."

"Incredible service, attentive but not over bearing or hovering. So friendly. Quirky, fun interior of old film posters from Italy. Sensational food. Great wine list. We had an absolutely wonderful evening!"

"Authentic Italian food, somewhat expensive but worth the detour! The restaurant has its own cachet, composed of small rooms over 2 floors and uniquely decorated. The menu is short, which is always reassuring and shows freshness, and mostly composed of the daily specials. My girlfriend and I started by sharing a plate of pasta and beef carpaccio with black truffle followed by veal ossobuco and porc chops. The sides were the same for both main dishes and very tasty (the potato millefeuille was "wow"). Throughout all these dishes you could really taste the true flavor of the ingredients with the right amount of seasoning to flame things up. We finished with a tasty Tiramisu and accompanied the entire dinner with a lovely Italian wine. Probably one of the restaurants I am most looking forward to go back in London. One star less on the food because the porc chop was slightly raw on the bone side. Overall the price felt a bit above what was expected but it remains a very enjoyable dinner."

"Our waiter AJ was very friendly and had a great sense of humour! We were a group of 9 & couldn't fault his level of service or attentiveness. The restaurant itself is a gem and I'd recommend taking some time to admire all the quirky little arts which have been placed all around (incl. facilities). Great atmosphere. The food! Everything we've ordered were done to perfection, I'd probably say all but the steak - although it's an English Olive fed Wagyu so it was still top marks!"

"A beautiful, outstanding, delicious place to eat. Ran by people who are true with what is available and understand ll you need to know to ensure each visit is unique and fulfilling. The food is varied and all on offer has a miraculous taste. Drinks are plentiful whatever you choose and the service in no way can be faltered. This is a restaurant I look forward to coming back to many more times, indefinitely!"
