    We went there for my wife's birthday. This was our first visit. The food was excellent and my wife loved the Cannelloni she ordered. I had the Spaghetti Bolognese and it was also very good. We agreed that the Bruschetta we shared as an appetizer was one of the best we ever had. The service was top notch and we really like the cozy setting of the place.

    Very decent little restaurant and good food with a discount included - perhaps slightly too expensive without discount.

    Fantastic small little restaurant. Waiter had his hands full until another waitress arrived but he was friendly, polite and efficient throughout. Great food, great decor, great location too.

    A plate of soft, pillowy gnocchi in creamy sauce, accompanied by a fresh salad of greens and vegetables, a smooth tomato-based soup topped with herbs, and crispy golden-brown sticks with a creamy dip.

    A cute Italian restaurant, centrally located and the service staff is very kind and helpful. However, I cannot say the same for the food. I ate seafood risotto upon the waiter's recommendation. Unfortunately, my teeth almost broke from the mussel shells. Maybe 10-15 small mussel shells came out and it was a very unpleasant meal memory. My husband ate pizza and he was happy with it. Be careful if you order a seafood dish. In conclusion, if you eat pizza, the price performance is ok.

    Lovely out of the way spot with simple tasty food, friendly staff and decent prices. Service was a little slow as only one waitress dealing with a full house but that's a minor criticism, as overall a great evening meal.

    Very good starters (polpo, focaccia with prosciutto). Gnocchi ai 4 formaggi were delicious. Salad Castelletto was also good. Unfortunately tiramisù wasn't as good.

    Delightful restaurant tucked away from busier main tourist area of Covent Garden but still in a great location. Food was delicious. Friendly welcoming service. We would definitely return.

    the waiter Bora was very kind and we were very happy with the service. however the food was mediocre. maybe the chef wanted to go home and did everything in a rush.

    Fettuccine pasta in a creamy sauce with shrimp, fresh spinach, grated cheese, and a hint of paprika, complemented by an artistic chocolate drizzle.
    Creamy fettuccine pasta in a rich cheese and cream sauce, topped with grated cheese, fresh basil, and a sliced radish, finished with a drizzle of dark sauce and a sprinkle of paprika or chili powder.

    A beautifully intimate little restaurant with an authentic feel! The Carbonara was lovely. Would definitely go back! Amazing value for money

    Freshly baked pizza with a thin, golden crust topped with rich tomato sauce, melted cheese, roasted eggplant, zucchini, and juicy tomatoes.
    Freshly baked pizza with a golden-brown crust, topped with rich tomato sauce, melted cheese, black olives, fresh spinach, and a runny egg at the center.

    Good main courses - pizzas and pastas looked and tasted really good! Service is what I wouldn't recommend - one of the staff members tripped not once but 3 times on our toddler's highchair (he placed it there), there was a time when both waiters were outside smoking while we wanted to ask for desserts. They kinda just did the minimum.

    Lovely little restaurant with nice staff . Main course was shocking! Cheap chewy meat, no sauce , dried up potatoes wedges and no veg . Poor presentation of food for all our dishes. - beige and basic ! Was the chef away? Fish was very dry and over cooked and we were charged £5 extra for it. Pasta dish had very little sauce and a few mushrooms. Puddings a bit better but not homemade. Wine was nice . 15% service charge added . Got 50% Fork discount on food but felt they had given us the cheapest ingredients and worst table because of this . Worked out £40 a head for 3 of us with a main course each and a pud plus 2 bottles of wine at £30 each . Total bill £120 would have been ok if food wasn’t so dreadful. Shame because restaurant building was lovely.

    Creamy fettuccine pasta with mushrooms and cherry tomatoes, shrimp in a garlic-herb tomato sauce with balsamic reduction, and a baked dish topped with melted cheese over savory tomato sauce.

    It was great. The food is decent and the ambience was quite and nice.
