The pasta aribiata and chicken Kiev were very good. Was waiting a while for our table. Focaccia was just pizza bread with rosmary and oil. Calimari overcooked. Overall, underwhelming but close to theatre which was handy.

Excellent food and service. Not very full so detracted from atmosphere but sure it would have a buzz when more customers.

Très bon repas autour de l’Italie comme dans la promesse. Pizza et pâtes très bonnes. Service efficace. Peu être un peu chère c’est le seul reproche.

I have never been to a restaurant that has brought the bill to the table before being asked. Abruptly plonked on the table, then returned with the card machine. Very rude as we had not been at the table barely an hour. Obviously wanted the table? Perhaps we didn’t order enough? Mediocre food anyway & very over priced. Certainly won’t be eating there again. Good manners cost nothing & that’s what I’d like to have paid!!

It’s fine. 5 stars is world class, 4 stars is really good, go to Italian restaurant that you brag and recommend, 3 stars is a place you leave satisfied but not impressed… I asked for best dish and the waiter haphazardly recommended chicken Milanese. It came out quick and was cooked well but not overly complex nor tasty, just lemon juice on the side. the chips were crispy but lacked seasoning and flavor. I noticed this was a pattern during or London stay, maybe it’s the type of potato they use? My wife order seafood pasta and the pasta was tasty though the seafood was small portions. Chopped up baby octopus and small mussels, two shrimps. Probably frozen. Not as fresh as we had two nights before somewhere else. She liked it but said she wouldn’t come back or recommend. Service was limited to just the order and the check, they left us alone. Tables are close together, the 3 generations of women next to us discussed the granddaughters plans for magic Mike shows lol.

Nice cosy Italian restaurant near Tottenham Court Road- would recommend the spaghetti bolognese. The service was quick and I think it's a good choice for a pre theatre dinner

The food was very good but the service was very peremptory and impersonal. We had booked for Valentine's day in the early evening and were told in no uncertain terms that we only had the table for 90 minutes. Shan't bother to go back.

음식은 그냥 보통...맛은 없지는 않지만 그렇다고 그 돈주고 먹기는 아깝습니다 서비스는 별루ㅎㅎ 물 따라주고 서비스요금 받음ㅋㅋ 암튼 분위기도 그렇고 별루요

I had salmon pasta which was nicely done. The service was good and friendly. The ambience of the place was fresh with plant walls and ambient music. What made me a little conscious about my eating was the constant hoovering around of waiters trying to move tables here and there. I was also told to leave after an hour, but at least no one came to rush me. This was informed only after I was seated. Overall a fine experience.

Food was excellent, service initially great, then the second we put down our cutlery they bought over the bill, i still had a glass of wine to drink and then we were hounded every minute until we paid the bill and were asked to leave. Such a shame as really spoilt our evening, the prices are fairly high for a pizza/pasta and to be treated so badly is not acceptable.

Food is well prepared, hot and tasty. Floor staff are attentive but not intrusive. Cosy atmosphere and the visible bustle outside seems a million away.

Food is well overpriced for what it is, staff were nice and meant well but really weren't on it or sharp; bringing our food over and asking "If we ordered" or "is this yours?!", rather than stating the name of the dishes they brought. Good wait skills don't take much, but when they're bad they're all you can notice! Service charge of around 12% (which didn't look optional) was a bit rich considering. Decor is nice, but probably not on the agenda a second time.

Had a lovely meal - visited on a Tuesday prior to the theatre. We had no reservation but got the last table in the restaurant! The service was very good, attentive but not intrusive. Food was delicious. Would highly recommend.

I booked a table for 13 for tonight over 2 weeks ago. This is an annual family trip to the theatre where we only get together once a year. Giotto canceled our booking at lunchtime today, even after I confirmed it yesterday. They offered me “private dining” in their sister restaurant (savour faire). If I’d wanted to book a “French” restaurant I would have done. We were put in the basement, the toilets are dirty and damp, cardboard on the floor, the food was barely average and the only positive was the nice waiter. Lots of verbal apologies but nothing offered for free or discounts. Furious 😡

I booked a table for four at this restaurant, but just four hours before our reservation, I received an email informing me that our booking had been cancelled due to a lack of available tables. This is both outrageous and unacceptable, especially given the short notice and the fact that they chose to email rather than call. We could easily have missed the email and arrived at the restaurant expecting a meal, only to be met with disappointment and frustration. I do not recommend this place.
