Thank you Giovanni staff for our delicious spicy sausage, aubergine pasta, hazelnut/pear sweet, followed by filter coffee. Tasteful artwork and decor. We very much look forward to returning with friends and family.

Very welcoming. Couldn’t do more to offer our children the food they wanted. All of our meals were delicious. Will definitely visit again when we are next in London. Thank you

Came with a group of work colleagues for evening meal, was really impressed with the food, very tasty and good portions. The garlic bread starter was great, comes as a pizza for anyone interested, easily can feed 2 or 3 as a starter. I had the linguine alla vongole which was very tasty and highly recommended. My favourite though was the desert. Pear and ricotta tart, recommended by the waiter, so so good. The Sangiovese was also very drinkable. Cost around £350 for 7 of us, so not cheap, but that included plenty of drinks and most had three courses. Service was a little slow at times, but wasn't an issue for us. Would come back again

I love this restaurant. The menu is fantastic - it has EVERYTHING! The staff are lovely, the chefs create incredible authentic Italian cuisine. The wine list is impressive. The restaurant caters for large groups. The seats are comfortable and the spacing between other guests is adequate. The bathroom facilities are very clean. This restaurant has a cosy intimate atmosphere. It is not noisy. It is perfect for celebrations and dates! I would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Thank you for such a wonderful dining experience. The quality of cuisine is consistently brilliant. The menu is excellently priced.

Best Italian food I’ve ever had! The steak on my pasta was tender and juicy. My friends and I ordered different dishes and they were all delicious. Our waiter was friendly and gave us his recommendations, really good service. The atmosphere was cozy. I finished the meal with pistachio gelato, yummy! I will definitely come back the next time I’m in London.

A wonderful gastronomic experience. We, a table of six, had no booking and were accommodated immediately on a busy Thursday night. The staff were very attentive and observant. The food was delicious; a fresh Italian cuisine, sumptuous and well served. Also, we loved the parmesan cheese pots! I would definitely vist here again, let alone recommend.
