Cecconi's Shoreditch

"This restaurant is unassuming on the outside, given its location, but totally buzzing. Loved the Truffle, Pasta was a tad too much and not as memorable but we sat at the bar and the bartenders were such a delight. Super cheerful and pretty efficient. I’ll go again for the truffles."

"Nice Italian spot just off of Red Church street in Shoreditch. The interior is well decorated, and a vibey spot for drinks. Pizzas were a 6/10 but the overall atmosphere of the restaurant made it worth the visit."

"Perfect place for a catch up with a friend in a very relaxed and laid back atmosphere. Staff were professional and polite (our waitress could have smiled a bit more). We arrived on time for our reservation and were shown to our table. The restaurant was full, but tables were well spaced out. We started with Burratta, Truffle Arancini and Zuchinni Fritti. For mains we had the Truffle Pizza and Veal Milanese. For dessert we had Profiteroles and the Chocolate Fondant (waitress could have warned us of the 15m preparation time). Food was on point, was served in a timely manner, cutlery was taken and replaced after every course. Price wise this restaurant is on the heavier side, but its worth the money!"

"Ambience: It was crowded and noisy, Sadly we also had a baby next to us screaming for a full hour. The interior is nice, but it feels like something is missing and it is a bit much of a tunnel feeling if you are sitting in the corner at the far end as we did. The Service Not good today, our waiter didn’t know the difference between vegan and vegetarian and we asked what the difference was between two dishes and even after asking the kitchen, she didnt get it right. Because both had the same cheese and she told us one of them was vegetarian and one was vegan. Food Classic Italian, nothing special. The parmigiana didn’t taste anything but fat. The spinach was good, but the chilis didn’t bring any heat. The broccoli was super tasty and the pizza was like an ordinary pizza. I had higher expectations of this place."

"I last had breakfast here solo two years ago and it was lovely. Came again with my family for breakfast, weekday late morning. Very quiet. The venue is breathtaking, hasn't changed, but the food and service were very bad and I was embarrassed for having chosen the restaurant. We may have addressed it in person to the staff but no one ever came back around to our table after our breakfast arrived despite having mentioned to the server that I may order another drink when I finished my coffee. The egg with the half English was disgustingly overcooked. One drink never came. Had to flag someone down to pay after waiting quite a while. Lunch and dinner may be better but I would say don't go for breakfast. It's quite expensive for such a poor experience."
