First time at this restaurant and we have been really pleased with the food and the service. We’ve booked through Groupon which saved us 60% of the meal so we paid for a 3 course for 2 people just £27. From the moment we called to book until we got there the customer service was really good, everyone was friendly and helpful. The food is wow, the portions were big and very delicious. We will definitely be back
Best meal deal in London, any pizza mine was 4 cheese any pasta husband had lasagne, side salad and a glass of wine. £19.95 each. The food was delicious and the service was not rushed. Will definitely come again.Food: 5/5
I Giotto give compliments to the chef… But that’s all they’re getting. I love Italian food and was super excited to come here. We’ll start with entering the restaurant. I was not greeted, instead I was confused if the hostess/waitress actually worked there because she just looked at me as I walked in. It was only because I said my party is already here that she gestured for me to go through. The decor is lovely, large open windows, comfortable velvet sofa, faux plants suspended from the ceiling, bright lighting and marble tables. Even the single chairs were deep and comfortable. Everything about this place is gorgeous. We started with two starters the bruschetta and the prawns. The prawns were delicious, the garlic creamy sauce complimented the prawns very nicely, however… where’s the rest of it? A huge plate for 4 prawns and some rocket which cost around £9. Oh and don’t forget the two little cherry tomatoes there. The bruschetta was nice but I have had better. We complimented our meal with a glass of white wine, but the amount the waitress gave us was like there was a wine shortage, rather then an egg shortage. The glass was finished in two gulps and nobody shots wine. If you’re going to short us on a glass of wine do not sit us next to people who have a fuller glass then us, who didn’t order a bottle. I ordered a margarita pizza and my friend ordered the salmon pasta. The pizza was ok, the base was just a bit to dense for my liking. It was like Italy had decided to try to recreate pizza huts deep pan, the crust was lighter then the base. The amount of cheese to sauce ratio wasn’t evenly matched. I feel I should be able to taste the sauce and have the cheese pair nicely with the dish rather then over power. Was hard to finish and I’m someone who can eat an entire dominos. I’d like to say that the service made up for the few aspects that has dampened this review. But alas this is not the case. Actually it’s why I wouldn’t recommend going or even setting foot back in. Even in Frankie & Benny’s you’re greeted with a smile, checked on regularly and attended to. Not at Giotto. It’s not like the place was busy and there was one person covering the whole restaurant. The woman in the white turtle neck jumper never smiled, never came over to see how we were or enjoyed our meal. We had to ask for our dessert menu and extra drinks. Even paying the bill at the end was an ordeal. Especially as I was short changed. I just wanted to leave! So Giotto you can keep that 30p The young girl who was assisting this lady was really lovely. She had a great energy, smiled and was easier to approach. For her, we were happy to pay the service charge. And here’s another tip you can add to that 30p: do not have service charge and the service was awful.
Centrally located on Londons high street and close to many hotels, this Italian restaurant is authentic and pleasing on the eye. Great staff and friendly and efficient service. Wide variety on the menu and some delicious wines. As mush as service was great and wine selection tasty, the food did disappoint. Ordered Seafood pasta and it absolutely lacked in flavour. I tried to save it with Chilli and parmessan and garlic but even these did not suffice. Then tried the Tiramissu dessert and here too I was disappointed. Pity. At least was short walk back to hotel.
Would have had 4 stars but I felt let down by the calamari. However, the pasta dishes we ate were fabulous as were the tiramisu and cream brulé. The staff were friendly, the restaurant clean and comfortable Would be happy to go back again
My husband said it was 3 stars. I liked my food and I gave 5stars. So averaged is 4 here. First of all, there are items on the menu that italians shall never serve. like pasta alfredo - pasta with chicken. It is pretty much a crime for italians. Bruschetta bread was barely done for this dish. It should be crunchy. All of the piece. Meat was not great. I loved the taste of my pasta, however it was overcooked, but I didn’t mind as I don’t like al dente. The sauce flavor was great. Tiramisu was nice. The place itself is very beautiful.
Nice modern Italian restaurant. Really liked the carbonara and the tiramisu was very light. Overall a nice meal.Recommended dishesTiramisu
The sea bass in both branches are amazing! Kentish Town and New Oxford st both very good! I had to try this one as I was nearby, and the sea bass is yum yum
Went on a week day. Made a reservation but it had not entered into their system. However the staff managed to get a table for us. The food here is amazing. Recommend for authentic italian food.Recommended dishesGarlic Bread
My first and only one star review. I ordered a pizza. What I received was mostly soup with a “crust”. It disintegrated and fell apart at any attempt to maneuver or manipulate the slice. This is not the reason behind the review. I sat there for 28 minutes without taking a bite of my food as several wait staff passed by without stopping to check on the table, obviously there was an issue. Upon receiving the bill I was asked if I’d like a box for take away. I said no, I’d rather not, there was a problem. So they took it away and brought the bill, of course the pizza was on it. The most insulting bit was the “Service Fee” stamped at the bottom of the bill, shameful really. What a slap in the face. The picture is the underside of the “pizza” upon lifting the slice about 3 minutes after it hit the table. The middle was mostly liquid and there was little to no crust detectable. The order was just a margherita with salami. No heavy toppings. Just an under cooked pizza with far too much on top of it and, what I suspect, very poor quality dough with little/no gluten plain flour instead of pizza/bread flour.
