Il Parco 136 Lauriston Road, London E9 7LH

"Great Pizza and very friendly and attentive staff who welcomed us in on a cold day. I'll definitely be coming back to try some of the other items on their menu. A great spot to break up a long walk around Victoria park."

"Food was amazing. Possibly the freshest squid we ever had on calamari. Risotto was amazing, my partner loved his pizza and my kids enjoyed the pasta. The place is a bit dated and could use some updated decor. But food was fantastic, service was superb."

"Fantastic Italian place near the beautiful Victoria Park. Every item tasted fresh and tasty. Immaculate presentation. Friendly service from the young lady. Small criticism is that the garlic bread was basically not like bread but more like a pizza base, needs more garlic too. Lasagne was great though I personally prefer more powerful flavours and prefer not to have so much tomato sauce around it. Ravioli was bang on in flavours, although portion size is a bit too small. All the soups were wholesome and delicious (we ordered chicken and vegetable). Vegi soup has a tomato base (much like Heinz can version), chicken one had a base like the cream of chicken cans. Although I was expecting more unique flavours than these common ones, nevertheless it was nice and filling as the vegetables and chicken were tender and cooked well. Cutlery, plates and glasses were super clean. Ice cubes with lime for water and just icecubes in glass for our drinks. A bit on the expensive side but we had good food here. 10% Service charge also."

"Excellent service. We attended and it was a rainy quiet day and quite early in the afternoon, but it was such a good time and very friendly and the lady who served us was full of energy and really took care of us. Food was very reasonably priced and VERY flavoursome. Highly recommend !"
