Atmosphere can be a bit noisy, but that's no reason to stay away. Nice decor. The food is great, so nice that there are smaller portions to share. Friendly staff, overall great experience.

Reaaaaaally nice food, fun and attentive service. Lovely atmosphere. Meatballs and pizzetas are to die for! Will be back!

The best restaurant experience I have ever had. We arrived without a booking on a Thursday evening and received a warm welcome whilst being shown to our two seats at the bar (great spot to eat). Jamie's team worked in fantastic and seamless synchronicity and the food was excellent.
Hyusein and Sam were behind the bar that night and were great conversation throughout the evening. An all round top experience. Thank you to the rest of the team also - we'll see you again this evening!

Interesting restaurant, felt like an Italian tapas type place as food was worth mixing and matching. Really nice atmosphere. Lighting, decor and furniture gave a warm and comfortable feel. Food was quality too - would highly recommend the spinach pizze.

Went for a dinner for 4 on a Monday night. It was noisy and packed, and for good reason. This place is a little gem. Helpful unintrusive staff. And the food - delicious, authentic, good portions and great to share. You have to try the gorgonzola pork bruschetta and the strozzapreti!

I took my husband here for an early evening birthday dinner and we were very impressed for our first visit to a Polpo. The food is (Venetian) tapas style but the potions are bigger than we expected, always a pleasant surprise and luckily we didn’t over order. The food was delicious. The wine list was very good, the service was great- they happily accommodated our last minute request to eat outside, even though it was very busy. The tiramisu dessert was amazing- We will definitely return, as it was also really good value for money! Definitely recommend.

Interesting sharing plates, recommend the different types of arancini and croquettes to start. The steak and mushrooms was pretty good and the meatballs and spaghetti was very good. Little pizzas also decent

Nice and chill place! The waiter and waitress are kindly and nice 💪🏼The food is good but the portions are too small...you have to mix some plates before your belly is full. I reccomend if you are lactose intolerant!

We came here a few years ago, and this time it has been just as fantastic as we remembered it, actually better! The food was delicious with a good selection of meat, seafood, and vegetarian. Beef cheek Ragu and lamb meatballs! They were very welcoming and happy to accommodate walk ins. Charlie and Carlo we really friendly - top service, food and drinks were delivered quickly. Highly recommend.
