    7.5/10

    The food and service was very good, albeit a bit to quick. Unfortunately there was an unhappy vibe coming from the staff, possibly because the male who seemed in charge was himself stern and unhappy . No pleasatrys were exchanged between him and us or himself and staff. But I don't see this changing as they were turning tables quickly so no reason to work at being pleasant it feels 😕 no tip left first time ever ...

    Food was delicious. The staff were very polite. We needed to be in a hurry and the food was served very quickly. The only downside was the toilets which were clean but rather tired looking and tricky to get the taps working!

    When we arrived to the restaurant they seemed to have no idea about our reservation, so no idea if that was down to the Fork/Google or the individual. Food was decent enough, but service a little lacking in care. Nothing specific, but a bit rushed. Plates were cleared off the table as family members finished rather than together at the end which left us feeling that they wanted us out as quickly as possible.

    Always a friendly welcome with a very relaxed and helpful attitude where luggage is concerned. The staff are all very aware that most customers will have a limited time to spend there and so the service is swift and efficient. All this would be to no avail if the cuisine was lacking but of course it's up to the standard that I've come to expect from a well established Italian restaurant. It's perfectly located for travellers using King's Cross and I definitely recommend it.

    Lovely independent Italian restaurant in the heart of Kings Cross. Delicious food, portion size small. Friendly staff. Very busy.

    We have used this restaurant on a number of occasions, partly because it is near St Pancras station, but also because it is consistently good. Generous portions of good Italian food, a wide-ranging menu, mid-range prices, and friendly and very efficient service. On this occasions we were able to enjoy two courses easily within an hour, and as expected it was excellent. We hope to use the place again soon!

    Food was OK but tables were too, too close together to where I felt we were in the way of the staff and they weren’t pleased by it.

    Food was reasonable but visited with our grandsons,one of them really only needed a child’s portion which they would not accommodate.First time ever in an Italian restaurant that this wasn’t available.Should not be difficult with Pasta and sauce.Consequently it came out as expensive and wasteful.

    The vibe inside was quiet and nice; you'd have no idea you were just off such a busy street! The food was lovely and the staff were great. Would recommend

    No real good value for money. Pretty expensive for you get in your plate. Also quite noisy when many people are there. For the service : I wanted to take a dessert but then I surrendered since none came back to ask me what I wanted to order… I do not recommend that restaurant

    The service was quick. My pizza arrived with plastic attached to both pieces of Parma ham. Upon payment the waitress asked if we would like to add a tip. A tip had already been added to the bill.

    I’m afraid I thought it was pretty ordinary. My main course- chicken risotto - was ok but nothing special at all. The panacotta I had afterwards was nice though. We were very surprised to be refused 125 ml glasses of wine. We could only have 175 ml which is more than we like to drink. After querying the policy we accepted what was offered and I left some of mine. Annoying and puzzling.

    We enjoyed a very long lingering reunion lunch and were not hassled in any way but when we needed service, we got a very friendly one. The food was lovely and very well presented with a lot of choice and I can thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

    Quite a long wait for food. Pizza was good but pasta dish was very oily, chicken was inedible and risotto was underwhelming.

    Despite the basic setting - the food was good and great place to eat if you want to escape the confines of the station but stay close by to catch your train!

    The food was good but our waiter was not very welcoming, took our order,did not smile and was quite flat like we were doing him a favour.

    Though not too much choice of tea ( only breakfast tea and Earl Grey), pizza is excellent and the seafood linguine is perfect. Worth money!
