So we came tonight at 1930 for a anniversary meal, we arrived at 1920 and were seated straight away with a choice of indoors or outdoors, we chose outdoors as it was a lovely evening. A server immediately offered us water and a drinks menu and it was ice cold and clean glasses all round. We ordered food and drinks almost immediately as we had prechecked the menu. The drinks we ordered was delivered really quickly certainly within five minutes and we're to the standard expected. The starters were served within 10 minutes and they were delicious! We had bruschetta and garlic bread and it was fresh hot and delicious, it had a real Mediterranean feel and tasted like it had been prepared immediately for serving. The mains we ordered were spaghetti carbonara and tagliatelle Bolognese and they were exquisite. Fresh pasta used in both, sauces were the finest examples I could find this side of the Chanel and the flavours were balanced wonderfully. The servers were very attentive and it felt like a really personal experience, the only thing I could add which would give it 5 stars all round would be some music but arguably the overall atmosphere of Leicester Square provides a great back drop.
I fully recommend a visit if you want a authentic Italian experience in London.
Went here before theatre. Great vibe, friendly and caring staff, comfort food made with love. The restaurant itself was clean, and the decoration set the scene and made it inviting. I'm definitely returning here.
I had a lovely meal at Vespa. Tucked away amid busy chains, it was the only place in London where we were received with smiles and a welcoming service. The food was excellent and delivered with excellent service. Highly recommended.
We dine in here last wednesday. We were meant to go to other italian restaurant however this young lady from vespa proactively approached us in a friendly manner. She didnt force us or anything. She just offered assistance and guess what. We ended up here for our dinner. Food is so tasty and authentic. It looks few on pictures specially the pasta but i'm telling you its a lot. (For me). Aside from the food. The service and ambience is really great. Family friendly should i say. Thank you vespa!
Delicious food, ate the ravioli the best I ate in London! Amazing and kind staff, our waiter name was Alfie and he was super kind and helped us with everything! Highly recommend!!!!
Nice restaurant in the center of London. You are welcomed by kind and friendly staff. Nice authentic Italian atmosphere. Delicious dishes, following the original Italian recipes. good value for money. It is worth a try.
This was my first time at the restaurant. The food itself is acceptable but by no means remarkable as Italian restaurants go. Despite the distinctly average food, the venue is cute and the staff are absolutely lovely! Alfie was our waiter and went out of his way to converse with us, remembered our names and was found common ground to connect. He was really lovely as were all the staff. The lovely vibe offset the food quality to make it an overall pleasant visit.
What a gem of a find, right near the theatre we visited.
Even though they were really busy and we didn't have a reservation they booked us in, sent us off with a little device which buzzed when our table was ready . By the time we'd had a little look around it was ready for us.
Food was amazing and service fabulous 👌
We had Quattro formaggi and Penne Arabiatta.
The pizza was the best I have ever taste and the pasta as well, but the portion of the pasta was a bit small than expected.
The stuff is great, especially Martina was helpful from beginning to end.
Lovely place, awesome staff and truly delicious food. Has definitely become our must go to place when we are in London.
