Edera

Been coming here for a long time and every time I eat here the food just gets better and better. I absolutely love this place. Great food and amazing people running this fine establishment! I absolutely love the cacio pepe they offer along with the other pastas too. I haven’t had better food in a while. Absolutely loved it! Recommended ! It’s a must visit!

I was so delighted when I was looking for restaurants for our wedding anniversary near Holland Park to discover there was a Sardinian one close by. We got married in Sardinia so it was a sign! Whilst we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, I couldn’t give it the full 5 stars so I shall explain. Pros:- The food was fresh, tasty and looked gorgeous. The service from all our waiting staff that served us was friendly, attentive and excellent. I spotted the traditional Sardinian bread on another table which we hadn’t ordered and when I asked if it was “carta di musica”, the waiter immediately responded and got us a basket. We also ordered a special dish as a treat which has a bit of theatre to it as the fish is baked in a fennel and salt crust and then brought to the table still encased to be opened. This was absolutely delicious. Cons:- It is on the pricier end of things which is expected for the area of Kensington and Chelsea borough. Our event was in Holland Park so we were looking for somewhere close rather than deliberately coming to the area to eat. Had we left 30 minutes earlier, I would have said this was an amazing eating experience. Unfortunately, near the end of our meal, the owner arrived and proceeded to teach one of the staff how to carry plates in full view of the diners. When we arrived the restaurant had been empty and this could have been done beforehand. It was also done in English when the staff had all been conversing with each other in Italian before so it felt this was done to be deliberately embarrassing. The owner made it clear that they could teach them but that if they did not manage to do it they would not be able to continue working there. We left making sure to thank that member of staff personally. It was still brilliant food but the owner’s attitude certainly put us off a bit.
