Da Mario Kensington

"Da Mario has an amazing history and is well established place. I had seafood salad and soup to start with and then pizza Regina and seafood spaghetti as a main. We had delicious fresh orange juice. Soup was fine, salad was lacking any sort of taste. It was made of pile of rocket salad topped with slices of octopus and shrimp. Apart of one slice of lemon there was no dressing or seasoning. Unfortunately the same were both main dishes. Pasta supposed to be in white creamy sauce. There was not a sauce, only a cooking juice of the seafood. Few clams were cold. It was lacking basic seasoning. I did not enjoy my pizza neither. I was expecting base topped with rich tomato sauce and cheese and additional topping. This pizza was very different. It’s like they bake the base with cheese (no tomato sauce) and few cherry tomatoes and then they top it up with a fresh toppings. The ham and parmigiana cheese were delicious but not my cup of tea. But maybe someone else will love it. Service was very nice. Professional and polite. I don’t regret my money spent here. It’s an experience on its own to come here. Very quirky and interesting restaurant. Unfortunately it is like this restaurant lost its connection with nowadays trends or high standards of new restaurants."

"Nice to see an Italian restaurant in London that offers Halal options. Great selection of Pizzas and pasta. The pizza look authentic Italian. Good size servings and the food is served piping hot. Our waiter was friendly and attentive aswell as engaging. Nice interior decor with more tables in the basement. This place is popular so it does get busy. The tirimusu is the ideal dessert to top your meal"

"Great Italian place in London! Though we only ordered two orders, they both tasted amazing (but I've been before and they never disappoint) I love the vibes and the interior of the restaurant. All the staff were professional, our waiter Alex was very nice and helpful. Definitely recommend!"

"My boyfriend and I ate here on Friday having wandered most of London (in the heat) and despite being super busy they made space for us outside. We weren’t immensely hungry but as we were off to the ballet needed something to eat and drink. We were not disappointed. The pizzas were amazing, just the right size and full of flavour. The staff were clearly very busy but cheerful and very helpful. In particular a very friendly Romanian waiter who was great with his service and manner. We would recommend them Highly."

"this place is amazing! the staff are friendly the food is great. i love the decor and the fact that this was princess diana’s favourite restaurant makes it even more special, i didn’t find this out until after i got there. i would definitely eat here again."
