Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Blackfriars

Having been previously and not the experience we expected second time around was totally wonderful exactly how we wanted for. Our anniversary great service amazing food and lovely table thank you

Really good value for money. Great independent restaurant. Food was incredible. Tea was not ideal, could have a few nice tea pots for single use on reserve for those having one after dinner. Curation of menu is awesome. Great flavours and pairings. Brilliant wine choice and options. Loved the complimentary champagne on arrival and dessert wine. Door does not clasp shut and often left open by guests creating a cold atmosphere. We ate at 6.15pm which was a perfect dinner time for a quiet evening meal and conversation. It gets louder at 8pm as a smaller restaurant when bookings get busier! Good vibe!

Experienced waiters and delicious food, quick service 😋

Waiting staff were friendly and efficient and there is a lot of choice on the menu across all courses. We shared a small anti-pasti plate to start between three which was the perfect size (it would probably be big enough for a main for one person). And I had the Amalfini pizza which was delicious. The portion size is good, the ingredients fresh and there's a promotion of 15% on Monday & Tuesday if you sign up to Club IR (which is free to do). The venue itself was busy and lively, but not too noisy and there is outdoor seating which would be lovely in the warmer weather. With the discount and optional service charge, our meal was £56 pp which included 2.5 courses (with the sharing platter for a starter) and a bottle of Prosecco, so I would consider it somewhere to go for a treat/celebration, but would definitely recommend and visit again.

Loved it. Very good service. Most of the food was excellent, better than expected. Only de lasagna and the tiramisu dissapointed, hence 4 stars, but the rest was truly remarkable, plus the price is fair, specially the cocktails. We'll go back
