Carluccio's - Marriott Maida Vale London NW6 5RP

"Not great. Once we ordered our food we had to wait ages for our mains, we could clearly see the chefs standing there not doing much, the restaurant wasn’t busy at all. My boyfriend’s lasagne was over cooked and they left the burnt bits on the dish. I wouldn’t even serve this at home. My dish was nice however, I got the veganesca. The bruschetta was served on a piece of toast that I would buy from a loaf from Waitrose. The tomatoes were fresh but they weren’t chopped properly and were lacking in flavour. It certainly wasn’t worth the money. I had to be that person and let the waiters know that the food wasn’t that good, they were kind enough to take money off the bill. Overall we won’t be returning there."

"Super beetroot goats cheese pizza. Fantastic service, especially Amine and Marvellous - thank you."

"Modern bright layout with bar seating and restaurant seating. Pizzas always good other items can be hit and miss. Service always excellent and drinks are great too."

"Carluccio's - Marriott Maida Vale is still a bit of a mixed bag. I assume its part of the same Carluccio's group which is usually very good. First the good the restaurant is bright and set in a well design space, also they are open all day so you can get breakfast, lunch and dinner here. The food is not memorable but OK and better than what other reviewers indicate so hopefully they are improving. The service good although still a bit slower than it should be. Carluccio's is a good place to go out with your friend or your family if you live nearby but hard to recommend to go out of the way for."

"What a great new restaurant on the edge of Kilburn and Maida Vaile. Carluccio’s stands for authentic Italian dishes and quality, ordered a pasta which was superb and the tiramisu after was lovely. Good quality food and service by Italians! Try it!"
