Very good place for typical Italian food.

Very good place for typical Italian food.
The pastas are very good, the pizza too, perhaps a little short on the variety of salads.
The prices are very good, and if you stay in one of the hotels in the area you get 20% discount (they do not ask you for anything to justify if you are staying).
The place is very well decorated, I do not give it five stars because the attention was not entirely good.

Well it all sounded good on the menu, and the staff were nice, but I found both my pizza and the desert to be lacking in flavor. The desert was extra disappointing because heating a pastry case in a microwave always ends up with it going soggy, and this was no exception. A shame.

There are some good Italian restaurants out there but this one is another favourite of mine. The customer service is great and the staff are friendly. The waiting time is a little longer than usual but the food is good as well. The bruschetta is fine as usual but the pizza is a little tasteless but it's still good though. This is located next to Paddington Station which is good so you can get a train back home afterwards. I recommend it anyway.

I was at ASK Italian in Paddington. All very good, the pizza was also good for being abroad. Closer to the Roman one, as low, than to the Neapolitan one, I would definitely go back.

The waiters are kind and pleasant.

P. . In London you eat sciapo.

Very good food and a beautiful ambiance. The stuff is very friendly and polite.
I was surprised in a very positive way about the fact that my drink was served in a bottle with a glass filled with ice. So it was guaranteed to get the amount of Sprite I actually paid for.
I also could see into the kitchen how my pizza was made which is positive too.
I would recommend eating there because the price was quite fair.

Why is it these places forget about you once you've been served your main?
The service and food was great up until we finished our pizzas. We waited nearly 10/15 minutes for someone to come over which we had to grab their attention as all the staff were either looking through us or chatting to eachother for long periods. When we eventually got the bill we then had to ask someone for the chip and pin machine.
If these types of restaurants kept the service smooth throughout they'd not only get 5 stars on here but also a tip!

Went for the dinner with my family who were visiting London. The restaurant was busy, but not full. It took us more than 15 minutes to be able to order our drinks and after another 15 minutes we still didn't have them. When we asked the More

The service is extremely lacking. I was not offered the pre-meal aperitif that the tables around me got. And my main course of pasta took over 45 minutes to arrive. I ordered the stuff mushrooms (mushrooms al forno) and the asparagus and pancetta carbonara. The mushrooms, a vegan option, were pretty good. I wouldn't have paired them with a garlic mayo. The carbonara was ok. But at that point, after nearly an hour of waiting I was just ready to eat.

Stumbled upon this place using the findmeglutenfree app. There is a separate gluten free menu that you can ask for. I tried the super green pizza, which was delicious! It comes to the table uncut, with a non gluten sticker on the tray. Fairly fast service and you get a little complimentary shot sized glass of lemonade to start :) My husband quite enjoyed his regular gluten pizza as well.

Good food and the food came quick but that's were the good service ended. We waited for our plates to be cleared for 45min on a Monday evening when the restaurant wasn't particularly busy. Plenty of staff walked past our table with empty hands during this time. If you are in a rush go elsewhere

We went there twice because we really liked the food and our hotel was nearby. We have two small children and they offer an attractive deal for them with starter, main and desert. Tasty food and not expensive at all. Nice interiour, looks a bit like a big hall, very modern.

This place came highly recommended but I have been sitting for 30 minutes and have yet to see a waiter. I know it s busy, but a drink ask would be great. Update: when they finally did come for my order, the kitchen was out of the two things I tried to order.

For an Italian who goes to London, this place is heaven. Among first courses, second courses and more there is a great deal of variety and everything is very good, at fairly affordable prices, considering that you eat healthy and with high quality. Recommended for everyone, not just Italians :)

You're good restaurant, absolutely not disappointed. The chicken mushroom legs were really good as well as the lasagna of my companion as well as the dessert (cookie with salted butter caramel ice cream).
Moreover, if you are a student you benefit from -30% with Unidays! Absolutely non-negligible reduction

We are here for several nights while staying down the road. Food was quick and delicious including complimentary salad sticks for kids. Staff could be a bit hit and miss but if you had a good server I couldn't fault it.
