It was a weekday and we were looking for somewhere chilled out for dinner when a friend recommended Da Daniela. This place is a lovely, homely Italian restaurant which is just a stone’s throw away from Warwick Avenue station. We were allocated the table near the motorbike – this makes much more sense once you are inside the restaurant! The focus here is on traditional Italian cooking and that was evident in their menu.. think pizzas and pastas as the main vegetarian options.
Great quality price ratio and the food tastes like I have been transported to a little Osteria somewhere in Rome. The environment is very cosy and informal and not extremely busy.
There were italian families there, which tells me that the food is actually genuine (we all know how italians are demanding with food generally, but if a restaurant is serving italian food and it has italian customers, then it is the real thing for sure!!)
It's amazing how even a simple bruscheta can taste so good!
Extra points for the Carbonara!!
BYO Brilliance. Great place! Good food and BYO. Highly recommended
This place is one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to in London.
Unlike other Italian restaurants that are more fast food and cheap, this place truly lives up to Italian cuisine.
The pizza was extremely well made and the lasagna was hot and full of cheese and meat.
The service was quick as when I ordered Tiramisu it came almost instantly.
The atmosphere is almost perfect but could be improved as there were one or two un-kid friendly photos. But other than that…
100% recommended to others!
We’ve been going to this place for a few years now and it never disappoints. Great atmosphere, staff and food. We’ve tried every type of meal on the menu from pizza and pasta to lasagne and gnocchi - everything is prepared to very high standards. I’d highly recommend for a local Italian rendezvous.
We been here last night and was all spectacular. The food is really Italian. Gorgeous starters such as Bruschetta and Focaccia. Highly recommended the melanzane parmigiana and beef lasagna. The chef and staff are really amazing and super friendly. Don’t forget to get the delicious tiramisu. Thank you. We will come back again
Great little place with a gorgeous decor. You can bring your own wine, though they have a selection of their own. Pasta was great made with a homemade sauce. Homemade tiramisu was delicious. However, wish they had more creamy pasta options
Delicious Pizza and great service for a mid week dinner with family and friends!
Introduced to this place by our son who lives around the corner, and we were delighted with authentic wood fires pizzas, and sides.
Next time, must try the pstas and meat dishes. And there will be a next time. Delicioso!
Homie and cozy little Italian restaurant. Daniela, the owner is a lovely lady. Very welcoming. She prepares some of the food and food ingredients herself. Da Daniela is a family run business. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the delicious food. The menu is simple with many traditional kinds of pasta dishes and pizzas. The desserts are also prepared daily by Daniela. Book in advance if you can as the place is small. Highly recommended if you’re looking for some authentic Italian food.
A lovely little italian restaurant. The Focacia were excellent as was the soup of the day. Sardines with Linguine was a bit out there for me but I really enjoyed it and no bones. Dinner for 5 (starters and mains with sparkling water but no deserts) was a wallet loving £120. Go there!
The cooking was just so great, the pizzas were delicious and the pasta even more. The waiter was very nice, friendly and we didn’t wait long to get our food. The decor was very cozy and it was really quiet, people talking calmly. Great service and restaurant !! Thank you, next time in London, I’ll come back!
Excellent food with cozy atmosphere in Little Venice, an imaginative family Italian restaurant with very good wine choices. The food is typical Italian fare, with pasta crabonara, pizzas, risottos etc but the quality is excellent, it felt just like you were in Italy! Check out their tuna steak and other main dishes.
Highly recommend. Ordered the Arrabbiata pasta and asked if it were possible to add a portion of prawns to the pasta and the chef kindly accommodated.
Alongside this meal, we ordered a lasagna, vegetarian pizza and a tuna pizza. All of the serving dishes were left spotless - food is incredibly tasty, fresh and authentic.
Finished the meal off with the brownie and tiramisu - both were exceptional!
