One of the best pizzerias in London that serve the most authentic italian pizzas . They taste and quality of the pizza can be related and compared to the ones that I've had in Italy .My favorite pizza here is the Quattro formaggi. My other favorites here include the penne arabiatta pasta and the cheesecake for the desserts . Totally recommend this place for an authentic Italian meal.

Delicious authentic Italian food, and very friendly service. Do yourself a favour and order the Sardinian specialties. This place doesn't look fancy, and you won't get a veal dish, but if you want an honest and delicious meal, this place is great.

Don't judge a book by it's cover, this place may not look like much from passing, but we were pleasantly surprised with the place once entered. The atmosphere was a bit lacking, although this is hardly surprising as we visited mid pandemic, the decor made up for this, with a very homely ambiance. The food was overall appetizing, the starters could have had a bit more oomph to them but were enjoyable none the less. The mains, however, did not suffer the same fate, we had no complaints and left us feeling sated. Cheap and cheerful, would recommend for fun little meal out.

Absolutely DELICIOUS food. Pizzas are amazing. Would highly recommend! Takeaway delivery service is fast and food arrived in fantastic condition and HOT. Just a note to Management - there were too many plastic forks in my takeaway delivery. Would you consider using biodegradable cutlery or wooden ones? Also, some of the side dishes came in plastic tubs. Love the food, would’ve just preferred more eco friendly packaging. :)

Such a lovely experience at this Kennington Italian restaurant. The owners are from Catalonia, Italy and their hand-made pizza and Italian pasta dishes truly reflect the authenticity of Italian cuisine. The service was incredible with the server suggesting the mushroom pizza (brilliant suggestion! It was delicious) paired with a flavourful house white wine. I definitely suggest this place if you're looking for a nice place to eat out.

Best Italian food I've eaten in the UK! Perfect place for eating in, and takeaway is excellent as well. The owners are lovely and the service is always amazing. They also have a wide ranging selection of Italian wines which cannot be beaten!

I went with my husband last Friday and we were amazed! The food was amazing: fresh pasta, delicious pizza and “birramisu”. Good wine and beer as well. The atmosphere was nice and the treat was awesome. Will came back soon!

Went for dinner on a Monday night with our one-year-old while on holiday. Very friendly and fantastic pizza. Food came out so fast we were able to eat and appreciate the meal before the baby reached his limit for dining out. The staff were lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The atmosphere was cosy and authentic. Would recommend, and I'd love to go back.

Quite possibly the best Italian I've ever been to in London. Absolutely incredible, the pizzas are just superb, and the pasta is quite possibly the best pasta I have ever had in my life. My partner and I are in London for a month, and have been every week. Each time we've had different dishes, and each time we've been blown away. The service is excellent and Maximo, the owner, is so friendly and wonderful. I could not recommend this restaurant more!!!

Had an impromptu dinner here with my sister and it was just lovely. The food was delicious and authentic. The service was quick and friendly. Prices were reasonable especially given the quality of the food. We had gnocchi and bruschetta to start, followed by a mushroom, cheese and truffle oil pizza and a lasagna alla bolognesa - all delicious. We didn't really have room for puddings but went ahead anyway and the Birramisu (beer - tiramisu!) was yummy, and the millionaire's mousse wasn't too shabby either! If I lived closer I think this would be a regular haunt of mine!

I've been a regular for 5 years and was never disappointed. They take pride in what they do and extra care in what they cook. Everything is fresh and if waiting times sometimes are a bit longer it's just because there is no precooked like most of London restaurants. Their main courses are second to none, yummy Maximo Lasagna..if I was to blame them for something it would only be my weight gain..lol
