This place came at the recommendation of a colleague who lives in St. Albans. Having been raised in…read morethe Itlaian neighborhoods of the NY suburbs, I have relatively high standards for an Italian deli. And this is a great little deli. The locals seem to flock to this place pretty frequently. The owners new customers by name (always a great sign), and there was a line when we got there (which moved quickly). Plenty of pastas, paninis, antipastas, and more. We placed a massive order for 5 people and sat outside. Everything was delivered quickly and we ate while reaching our forks over each other's plates to make sure everything was tried, and nothing was missed. I didn't spend too much time looking, but there is a little shop as well which offers different sauces, pastas, etc. for purchase. They all look delicious, and great for a gift basket.

Come here many times and each time I have been impressed…read more Food is always up to par and the staff is very welcoming and happy to explain any part of the menu. Pizzas are cooked very well as well as pastas. Highly recommend!

We live right down the street and we were so excited to finally try Valentina. We buy some things…read morein the shop downstairs and have always been happy. The olives are amazing and the panettone for Christmas was delicious. To begin with, the service was very slow. From the beginning, even just getting wine and water seemed to take too long. Then we had to wait 30 minutes to order food and then another 30 minutes to receive our appetizers. By this time we had been at the restaurant for over an hour. The main course took about 30 minutes to arrive, as well, which would have been okay if we weren't already a bit annoyed with the slow service. I'm not sure if they were understaffed (it was fairly busy, especially for a Wednesday night) but the staff just seemed to disappear sometimes. The food itself was also subpar and a disappointment. Italian food is wonderful and full of great flavors - all the food we had was bland. We had fried calamari that was chewy and, although the calamari seemed fresh, the batter didn't taste of anything. It seemed like neither the calamari nor the batter had been seasoned. My partner's fish was okay but again, seemed under-seasoned, and my pasta was also just bland. Everything lacked any sort of distinction and, considering how good the items in the store are, this was a real disappointment. I think if we hadn't been there with a 50% promotion we would have been really upset. We were hoping to find a new neighborhood spot but this, sadly, won't be it.

Oh this place is just fabulous. Their lasagne is the best I've ever had. Anywhere, including…read moreItaly. Their Italian cheeses should be in heaven, the Gorgonzola is about as perfect as it can be. Only dissapointment was that they serve coffee in cardboard cups! They wouldn't get away with that in Bologna, Flotence or Rome and it lets them down a bit.

This place simply deserves my five stars...just because I am always looking forward to shopping…read morehere! (Yeah, I'm kind of weird that way - looking forward to be shopping at a greengrocer.) But seriously, I always find their fruit and vegetable selection to be impeccable - fresh, beautiful and bountiful! On top of that, they have a huge variety of resasonably priced organic products, such as all kinds of dried beans, pasta, cheeses, müslis, spreads, dried fruits etc etc etc. I mean, this store is jam-packed with healthy goodies and you cannot be leaving this store not feeling good about yourself! On top of that, and this is really where they've won me over, the folks working here are always super-friendly. Not the in-your-face, let me chat-you-up-kind-of-friendly, but a friendliness that is subtle, but extremely agreeable to me. In other words: need your five-a-day and wanna support the local business scene at the same time? Broadway Fuiterers are your mates!

The best fruit and veg shop in Crouch End. The staff is always helpful and smiley. The oranges and…read moretomatoes are real! Yay! They taste like fruit! I forgot what it is like after years buying fruit and vegs in Tescos or Lidl. They have always seasonal stuff and it is worth a visit: you will love their vegs. Also they have variety of olives, something I really miss from home! You can pay by card with a minimum of 10 pounds. I love this shop!

Social media first introduced me to the concept of pasta instead a cheese wheel. My city in the…read moreStates doesn't yet have any location serving this as an option, so when planning a trip I decided to look for options in London. To my surprise there were several listed. I opted for this stand in Camden Market for my first experience. They were offering free samples as I walked by, which I accepted already knowing that this was the destination I traveled to the market to try! The pasta is freshly made and cooked to order. It's really cool seeing it getting tossed in the wheel/rind. There were several amazing sounding topping options, but I opted for the classic style. The flavors were rich, the pasta texture was perfect, and everything tasted fantastic! Very happy with my choice!

This is a yummy option at Camden Market for anyone who loves pasta! There's a nice variety of…read moretopping options that you can pick from (or just get your pasta plain) after it's sautéed in sauce and then finally tossed in the cheese wheel. I got the crispy pancetta and really liked it. There are additional toppings on the side you can add yourself, like grated cheese, chili oil, and minced garlic. These definitely add more flavor and I think it's worth adding one or more of them. I added cheese and garlic to mine. The pasta was very tasty and nicely sauced although it wasn't especially cheesy, at least to me. I think it just gets a mild cheese flavor from the cheese wheel but it's not going to be as cheesy as a mac and cheese, for example. It has a nice balance of flavor that lends itself to any of the topping options.

The seats by the bar is a bit uncomfortable - too close to the bar and your legs are squeezed between the bags and coats hanging under the counter.

I always thought this was 'just' another Italian restaurant until I sheltered under the roof by the…read moredoor in a rainstorm. It's actually a wonderful Italian deli - just the sort of place you find in Cowley. They've got an exciting mix of different foods with suitably Italian-sounding names. It's absolutely brilliant if you want to try cooking your own Italian food at home, but using proper Italian ingredients, rather than Sainsburys' attempt. Even if the idea of cooking foreign food terrifies you, there's something for you, with a great range of prepared food and the staff's useful advice on how to serve it. I imagine it would go down very well at a dinner party. They do sausages, cured meats, dried pasta (loads of funky shapes and sizes!), cheese and desserts (mmm tiramisu). They take telephone orders and are really flexible and helpful with orders. Don't fancy taking stuff home? They serve food there as well! Pizza for £4-£7, pasta where you choose your sauce first and then the sort of pasta to go with it, and even main courses like lasagne and meat dishes. Main dishes come with an Italian version of chips - absolutely delicious, Spinache and Parmesan or Fagioli della Mamma: a tomato sauce with bacon, beans, onion and chilli. Pop in for a bit of Italian food love see you in there!

Great selection of Italian food and always good quality. However, the gent at the till needs to…read moreimprove his maths skills. It seemed a bit expensive for what I bought, so I totaled it up when I got home. I was overcharged 11 quid and was not offered a receipt. I have heard of others with the same issue (buying the same thing repeatedly and being charged a different price each time.) If you go to Salvino, pay attention to the prices of your purchase.

Parma ham, seafood salad, and blushed tomatoes on a sandwich? Whatevs! It's really fun to go in and make whatever you want eat. If you're feeling a bit breadshy, then just grab some olives and cheese to go. My minor gripe is that is can be a bit pricey for ?? reasons; Adding a few slices of parma ham to your sandwich and raise the cost a whole pound, which is a bit odd considering the takeaway aspect of Salvino. This place also is good if you want some italian staples..pesto..pasta..italian bouillon cubes.. lov'init. I come here a few times a week. btw the artichokes are awesssommmmeee (but again..costly!)
