This Italian restaurant makes authentic Rosetta bread sandwiches. The ingredients they use in their Rosettas are so good that at each bite it felt like being back at home. Wine is exquisite and overall price it's good too.
Buon appetito!

I popped in yesterday because I fancied an Italian espresso. I was super amazed because it was PERFECT!!! super, proper! . drinking a well done espresso is sooo difficult in London. most have and acid burnt taste that completely spoils the experience.
This one had no such tastes: it means the young barista knows his job 😊

Pret - eff off! This place is great. I had a slice of their chocolate and berry cake. It was so delicious and moist, only crumbs remained when I remembered to take a photo. And only £3 for a decent size slice in the West End!!!
I really recommend this charming Italian restaurant. Despite being located just off Trafalgar Square the prices are great, and the food is hugely better than most of the usual tourist traps in the area. The service is great too.
In a time of post-coved recovery it's more important than ever to support small, independent businesses and this is definitely a place that deserves to stick around for a long time.

Great find! Wonderful fresh mozzarella and Parma ham salad. Limited menu at the moment - but all good range of panini and salads. Friendly service. Certainly I'll be coming back and recommending to my family.

Amazing place and authentic delicious food! A Panini might seems pricey, but given the fact we are in London and the high quality ingredients, it’s worth every single penny...probably I would increase the size of the salads. 😊

Not sure if I should call this a restaurant or a cafe, either way it's great for casual dining, a quick lunch with friends or colleagues or for a bite before going to the theatre. This has popped up in place of the Tex Mex place there before it and it serves up great Italian food with a southern bais I think, lots of menu items familiar from our trips to Pulgia. If you go you must try the olives (probably Nocellaras) meaty and delicious the best I've eaten in a long while! Pleasant service and keen prices for the locality.

Just across the road from Charing Cross station. We needed coffee and cake on our arrival in London. This small Italian cafe was perfect. We received a warm and friendly and genuinely Italian welcome, two delicious cups if cappuccino coffee and a large slice of light and crumbly lemon cake. Well worth a visit.

Small but worthy of a visit. An Italian gem in the heart of Theatre Land close to many of the major stages. I had the soup of the day, lentils and vegetables,also gnocchi with Gorgonzola sauce, all very tasty and in good proportions. I tried an Italian craft beer to wash it all down, also excellent. The bread, from which the restaurant gets its name, is beautifully crusty and tastes like good, fresh bread should. The only draw back was a very limited menu.

Absolutely lovely! The best place I found in London for a true Italian aperitivo that doesn't cost my monthly salary.
The only downside, plastic. It would make such a better impression for your customers (and the Planet) to use proper plates and cutlery.

Found this little gem purely by chance on a trip to the theatre. The service was very good, so good we went back after our theatre visit for Aperol Spritz and Olives. Our lasagne lunch was excellent. Would definitely recommend but as it was a Saturday would suggest booking.

Had a delicious pre-theatre supper in this unpretentious, attractive little restaurant. 2 gnocchi + large side salad to share + 2 sizeable glasses of prosecco + 2 puddings + 2 coffees = £48. Great value, tasty & lovely service... and in the heart of theatreland

Sensational. Great food. They welcomed our family here. Quality and delicious ingredients. We loved the paninis, minestrone soup and meat/cheese platter. I recommend stopping off.
Expensive but quality food, I could tell by the Italian family sat in front of us who seemed to be enjoying it a lot (if an Italian family likes an 'italian' restaurant I'd say it's good). Coffee was also excellent and much better than that found at the National Gallery or at Trafalgar Square (and for the same extortionate price, u might as well pay for quality).
