The best food served is Pizza and Garlic bread. Was really does a pointed with prawns and lobster ravioli.
The bruchetta starters are worth trying. The service is good. The place is very congested, it would have been great if there was more space around tables.
Please make your bookings before hand. The place is usually crowded during weekends.

I have such wonderful memories of summers spent in the Bay of Naples in my teen years.  The photo above is me, my mum and aunt in Pompeii with Vesuvius behind us, taken in 1975.  The next year we made friends with an Italian young woman called Tina and her cousin Etta, who invited us to stay at their summer apartment which was built on the rocks above the sea between Minori and Amalfi.  Steep steps down the cliff lead directly into the sea where their friend the Marquis picked us up in his yacht and took us to Capri; a taste of the high-life indeed.   Our friends (the rather handsome Enzo and Antonio) on holiday from Naples were not so wealthy, and arrived in a row boat, together with the large octopus they had just caught.  The octopus later re-appeared on top of a large mound of spaghetti cooked by their mother – a dish I shall never forget as it was served whole and appeared to be looking at us!   The walk from Minori to Ravello through the lemon groves was amazing, and everywhere we went the people friendly and welcoming, one of the lemon farmers invited us in for drinks I remember.  Now famous for the Amalfi lemons, at the time they couldn’t be given away as the thick skins weren’t thought marketable by the supermarkets, and I think spurred on the invention/production of limoncello.

Excellent food the pizza and the pasta both cooked to perfection and truly authentic. One of my good friends is Italian and a chef so visited by his recommendation and what a joy it was. Everything tastes so fresh and a lot of love has gone into the cooking. Will definitely be eating there again.

Had dinner here last night.
Service is not the best. Never was and never will be; but the food is good. Pizzas are flavourful and well cooked. Try some of the other dishes as well. The pork belly with aubergine was tasty but a bit fatty.

Without fail, Donna Margherita is my go-to Italian restaurant in London. A friendly and welcoming place, I return to regularly to be reminded of what real and authentic Italian should be. High quality food, attentive service and incredibly good vibes keeps be coming back. Best in class, for sure.

Authentic Neapolitan food and amazing pizza. I've visited Italy many times spending a large amount of my time in the Campania region, of which Naples, the home of pizza is the capital. I can honestly say that this is quite simply the best pizza that I've had in the UK and I thought came very close to the quality that you can get in Italy itself. If you love pizza I would strongly recommend a visit to this place, although if you plan on doing so book in advance especially at weekends. The restaurant isn't solely a pizzeria though, they have a selection of other Neapolitan specialties on the menu too. We did try the polpettini (mini meatballs) and were suitably impressed.

The Best Neapolitan Restaurant in London. When it come to Italians in search for the authentic Italian restaurant there could be names a couple over London, but when it come to Neapolitan Cuisine, there is only one to be considered and thus why Donna Margherita is my favourite over 5 years plus now, without any disappointments.

I must say that Donna Margherita is an authentic Neapolitan restaurant, and a strong influence of southern cuisine is applied in there, therefore if you never been to Napoli or south of Italy an tasted the typical Italian home made food, that the place you want to be.

I have been there in many occasions, with family, friends, colleagues, large parties a romantic dinner for two and i always found the right atmosphere and service impeccable. The staff is friendly though, and if you will have time to chitty chat with them about the menu, they will give you a lots of tips about the right choice of food and wine without and i have never been disappointed with any choice made on my behalf.

It really make me smile to read about the review of Zippy amongst all the others. It is pretty understandable for an English not to understand how the real pizza should look like. I hope next time he will travel to Napoli he is going to make sure to ask for his pizza with double or triple cheese on the top, because that is the way in my city we used to cook the pizza.

Is so funny to see people pretending to be food critics counting the number of beans on a plate, and not having time to goggle how the real Neapolitan pizza looks like. Wow, that's observing ahahahahah. Not to talk about the difference of the Carpaccio, not recognizing the difference from the fillet, mistakenly for a roast beef. Thanks God he did not asked for horseradish sauce :-)

Overall my point of review is to let anybody know that I am extremely satisfied with this restaurant, and being customer for such a long time, i really do not think that worth reviews of people that would rather spend their money in the fast food, that makes me understand what kind of low level of knowledge for food they could have.

When i think of this restaurant i think of my Mamma cooking for me, the flavour and the taste of the dishes they come exactly as she does. I will never get tired to recommend it to all my acquaintances.

Love Napoli......Love Donna Margherita

I visited Donna Margherita for a lunch with friends and felt compelled to descrivbe what a truly authentic Italian experience I had. The food was absolutely exquisite from the pizza which surpasses anything which I have ever tried before to the delicious pasta with mussels. The food is as fresh as it gets, cooked with expertise and served in a simple and rustic setting, you forget that this is Lavender Hill. No trip to Clapham is complete without a lunch here, I will be returning very soon to try dinner!!

my friend told me to go here as food would be delicious . she was well right . As soon we arrived the owner gived us the welcome. He Explaining us how the make the homemade pasta , pizza and all of the concept behind . I found it really interesting . we end up having seafood ,antipasti ,pasta and dessert. I read a few of bad reviews in here that I don't really agree with it .some people saying pasta was not cook enough, far away from "Al dente ". Well the " al dente fresh homemade pasta " will always be a bit harder then the cheap one u get from supermarket but doesn't mean pasta not cook. Well the food was delicious , resturant clean and nice ,the staff really polite and friendly 5 stars indeed .

Pizza was banging! The wholemeal-like dough was a welcome surprise and the toppings have that perfect sloppy but crispy umami goodness. We ordered takeout through Deliveroo. I’d avoid the chips and tiramisu both were average but who cares when the pizzas that good? Food 5/5 Value 4/5 Atmosphere - don’t know!

Friendly staff and top notch Italian food. Pasta and seafood was great, and loved the homemade panna cotta. Happy to have found a local Italian place, will be returning.

Surely the best pizza I have tried in Battersea so far! The exterior of the restaurant may not be the most attractive, but once you try the food and meet the friendly owner, Gabriele, you'll definitely want to stay. Can't wait to go back and try the other typical Napoleatan dishes!

Been to Italy a million times and this is just like being there... Napolitano style, grande pizze at decent price for London and cheaper than flying to Napoli! Recommend the funghi and rucola with truffle oil..

There is a real attention to detail in their food, from choosing the right flour for their bread and pizza dough, to obtaining organic ingredients for taste. We will definitely be coming back. The four cheese pizza was some of the best I've ever had and their pasta is home-made.

I came here for dinner with a my friend last week and. They have a new Chef which has recreated the pizza menu LORENZO that tastes like it is straight from Italy! The dough is beautifully crisp and light and every mouthful is a taste sensation. I have worked in a few restaurants before and tasted many a pizza and I can honestly say that this chef knows what he is doing! We also had fantastic customer service from the staff ANTONIO They made sure we were well looked after and very knowledgeable on the menu when we had some questions. I will definitely go back to this restaurant and am looking forward to trying out more of the menu!
