Conchiglia Restaurant Reviews

Great value for the price, very authentic and amazing

Classic Italian restaurant: genuine Italian menu (really good bruschetta!) well prepared, and some very good lunchtime deals for cheap eating too

Conchiglia is a really nice place for lunch, never been there for dinner so beware. The company I work for has a corporate deal with it which means that the food is even more convenient for us. Has a bit of retro/60ies feel to the restaurant itself and the menu is quite varied between mains, meat, fish and pizzas. Pizzas here are very wide and super thin crusted. It is a bit unusual, but deffo worth a try to make your mind. Cream base dishes are some of the ones I prefer the most with tagliatelle made e montin the lead. Nice selections of wines and dessert plus a real italian coffee to tie it up all.

Delicious food, wonderful service and all at a great prices! Highly recommend!!!

Best pizza I have had in years - I had forgotten just how great a proper pizza is - very lucky to have such a neighbourhood gem - going back for the handmade choccies....

After building up a appetite I suggested we eat to soak up the booze.

After some thought I chanced it here because I had walked past it a few times going to work etc

We had the choice of being seated inside or outside..however the evening was drawing to a close so we opted for in.

Everything was softly lit..and romantic like most Italians I guess? While my friend went to the bathroom a waiter did the wobble test on our table...once stable he placed a pitcher of water on the table.




Both arrived in good time and the portions were fair.

The mains were just as good and with every delivery the waiter would always offer extra cheese and pepper. The service was charming and impeccable and the food good. Don't get me wrong this isn't the best Italian food I've had but it was good and the ambiance and excellent service made it a great evening.

Would I be back? Possibly..only because there are quite a few restaurants to try.

Unlike lots of "Italian" places, Conchiglia has very good tasting authentic food for a reasonable price - have been a couple of times now and have been very pleased, there is a slightly old fashioned feel about the place (in a good sense) which is nice compared to the overly modern restaurants in this area

Amazing Authentic Italian! Trofie pasta is the best!

Beautifully cooked steak and attentive service. Definitely come again.

Fantastic, foood atmosphere and host superb. I make a point of going there on my visits to London. Highly recommend

Divine bruschetta with the sweetness of tomato brought out by the vinegar and the freshly made bread with all that crisp; and love the pizza with flavor just right, and the crisp crust! The prawn spaghetti too, the flavor is well balanced and thickness of the sauce is just right to wrap around the pasta.
However a bit disappointed by the dessert- the pistachio ricotta has a bit too much sour taste (to me, who tried it for the first time) and not enough pistachio flavor; the white chocolate cheese cake is typical New York style cheesecake with a berry layer which is good but not spectacular.
In all the starter and mains are amazing, thus the 5-star.

Nice Tablecloth! Shame about the everything else!
Con by name Con by ******!
No wonder it was completely empty!
We took a gamble and walked in to find the place completely empty (first warning sign)!
We were greeted by a lone waiter who looked exactly like that Spanish guy from Fawlty Towers!
It felt a bit awkward because the man couldn't smile to save his life!
Even though I tried to crack a joke as we were being shown to our table!
My eleven year old looked at me and said "I don't think he got it dad"!
The food was absolutely terrible, the Calamari (no doubt came from the deep freezer) which was chewy and very oily, it came with a tiny slice of discoloured old lemon! And our main dish was Veal Milanese, again it was thick, tough and dripping with oil from their deepfryer, the portion was the smallest we have ever seen in an Italian restaurant, it was served with pathatic two tiny vines of rocket!
The service was lousy and our mains came at different times, not ideal if you are a family of three wanting to eat together!

Our clothes stank of oil for the rest of the day! The oil in their deepfryer must have been there for weeks because the whole restaurant stank of it!
Couldn't wait to get out! Never again!

Excellent food and good vibes!! Definitely my favourite Italian restaurant in London!!!

Very nice home! Copious and delicious! Lovely setting

Great Italian food and do great pizza as as other lovely dishes nice and friendly staff and good value for money and even better when the weather is nice can sit outside

Great service, great food. Should we ever come back to London, we will definitely come back!

Relaxed atmosphere. ..excellent service...and the food outstanding..well worth a visit

Great food and service. The interior design is a bit basic / dated, but quite charming. Definitely recommend!

Excellent service a wonderfully good meal to try without moderation.

Started off as one of my favourite restaurant in London. However over the times they haved lowered the portion size, quality of ingredients on their menus.. I strongly recommand their desserts though, top class Italian dessert remains with high standard

I visited conchiglia last night, with a friend and had 3 courses all of which were superb, the service was fast and very friendly. I'd recommend to anyone who enjoys fabuous Italian food :-)

We went to this restaurant last Thursday for our Christmas Lunch. It delivered in service, food, atmosphere and price. Chain restaurants can't compete with local restaurants like this. If you haven't tried this restaurant please do. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Conchiglia restuarant we have the best Christmas lunch ever. We will be back.

We enjoyed 2 takeaway pizzas today, the Vesuvio and San Daniele which were excellent. The best pizzas we ve had since visiting Italy.

Great restaurant, definitely the one to reccomend! Great pasta dishes (pasta is not overcooked which is a big thing!), big portions, friendly atmosphere in a quiet set up. Reasonable pricing. Give it a go :)

We arrived late on a bank holiday Monday evening. Some restaurants would have rushed us through our meal, not Conchigila. Our host, Giovanni made us feel relaxed & welcome. The menu was varied & interesting catering to all tastes. Our meal was delicious, fresh & full of flavour. I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant.

Very nice, authentic Italian restaurant with a friendly owner and reasonable prices.

Very pleasant Italian restaurant with a good menu, reasonable prices and good service.

One of the best Italians I've ever been in, bread, steak and pizza were all off the scale. Highly recommend.

A wonderful place. The most attentive service in the world, really made us feel at home. Lovely food too :)

Great Italian food! A family run restaurant, food made from the heart!

Cosy italian place. Feels like you are easting in a local resturant in Italy. We ordeted the carbonara and salome pasta. The service was great and the food was amazing.

Lovely service and great food. Nice to sit outside and enjoy an evening in London.

The pasta was wonderful, and the waiter was quite accommodating to some strange requests.

Tutto perfetto, mille grazie! The singing owner (?) was a gem, besides perfect pizzas and wine :)

This place has charm and excellent, authentic food and no hype. Lovely pastas and the owner is very friendly. Very good value for money.

Somewhat tasteless. Even with salt, pepper and some parmesan the food didn't taste that much. Good service and ok prices.

Good value. Good service. Good food. Good location.

Excellent food and attention.
Calm and warm atmosphere to share a good dinner

Good place for an Italian dinner out. We had great pizzas and gnocci with a delicious Italian chianti.

The best pizza in the world. And exceptional treatment

Overpriced, poor quality Italian food with unprofessional service. It was a bad decision to go there whilst there are many other good restaurants in walking distance.

Lovely, authentic little Italian restaurant Charming old school touches, beautiful flavours and fresh dishes. The waiter of 11 years is amazing - he might also be the owner? His gentlemanly service and kind attention to detail is lovely. The place is a little... rustic... the menus could do with throwing out (old/ stained) and simplifying... but otherwise just a real treat. Romantic

The food is very delicious, and the owner of the restaurant is a cheerful Italian who sings his beautiful voice

Lovely. Best pasta and authentic italian family run restaurant

It's a decent place with nice atmosphere and good service. The food just missed the standard I'd expect for central London prices

My favorite in the neighborhood, family service, best pizza and great pasta!!!

Great food very welcoming always a great experience

Superb service, very friendly and the food was awesome especially the pizza which was huge and very traditional.

This is genuinely the best pizza I've ever had. If you love creamy, garlicy pasta then please order the truffle pizza - you will not be disappointed.

Tried their take way vegan pasta and I was very impressed by the quality of the food and customer service. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, the proper Italian way, and the flavours were perfect with the food served piping hot. For More

Great value Italian, with a personal touch. A hidden gem in W1

Cosy Italian place with white table cloth, professional service and good food.

Nice italian food, my favourite is calzone pizza. I ussually go every week, nice price and nice food. Very kind staff.

Fine service, friendly Italian waiters, white tablecloths, good value, delicious food.

We're visiting London for the night, saw this place and popped in. Very friendly owner and the pizza was amazing. The wife is half Italian so it must be a good spot. Would come again if we lived round these parts! Good prices too.

Delicious Italian food with mega portions friendly staff and lovely wine, I intend to work my way through the menu in the future

This was my first meal out, in almost four months, since the CoVid-19 lockdown began. We couldn't have chosen a better place. The warm welcome, the unfussy but efficient service, the delicious food and the sensible wine list all joined forces to make this a most memorable lunch. We will most certainly be back.

Very nice staff, very good food and nice atmosphere. Prices ok. We recommend!!

We had a wonderful evening at Conchigila. The food was delicious and we had some special wishes (especially me, because I am vegan). That was no problem! I would love to eat here again.

We had a wonderful evening at Conchigila. The food was excellent. As a vegan, I had a few extra wishes and that was no problem. I highly recommend the restaurant and would eat there again immediately.

For a 'set meal' fan this is one of the best menus around. Conchiglia is a delightful rare gem within the anonymous corporate W1 restaurant world.
The various times I've eaten here the main service has been by the owner which is a rare honour in central London. He advises on the seasonal fish dishes which my Father always loves.
My set meal choice is always a great cheesy mushroom pasta sauce with panna cotta pudding.

Ambience is perfect. Decor is just right and should satisfy all preferences - it's not tacky nor dowdy - is well maintained and chairs are comfy! The outside of the restaurant is welcoming and twinkling.

It's a place to be commended on achieving longevity of business, and maintaining a quality standard. Where many local businesses decline, are driven down and drowned by extortionate rents and business rates.

As a Soho resident surrounded by choice, Conghiglia stands out a mile... the mile it takes me to walk there is worth every penny.

A point to remember for visitors to UK. In UK it's possible our portions could be considered unsatisfactorily 'small' compared to American standards (which are huge) And it shouldn't surprise, that on occasion, waiting staff could be under par... this happens in every restaurant, everywhere in London. Here, you get a customised type service which may vary but is always a tasty experience at an amazing price.
I'll always recommend this place and aspire to eat there more. Long may this establishment flourish for the benefit of locals and for visitors.

Good and fresh food at reasonable prices, including the wine! Owner served us the wine and was singing to Frank Sinatra. Really good experience, will definitely be back
