    Country breakfast apparently
    Tim L.

    Had an hour or so to kill near drury lane on Sunday, yelped and popped into this little joint. I've walked past Ecco many times before, but not being a massive breakfast person. I tend to save it for a bigger lunch. Nonetheless, I thought I'd give breakfast a second chance. I popped in and ordered their £3.90 country breakfast which included bacon, black pudding, a sausage, beans, 2 eggs and I want to say mushrooms, but can't promise you that's true. The breakfast doesn't come with tea, so that's an additional £1.40 - what frustrates me is this: How can a British breakfast not come with tea?! The ingredients are mediocre - nothing you couldn't get from a decent supermarket and...I hesitate when I say this but, it just wasn't greasy enough. I didn't feel like I'd been plunged in oil and come out dirty and hating myself. That's probably just me though. The man behind the counter, possibly the owner, was a bit grumpy - I'll give him the whole Sunday morning excuse, but I was the only person in there, it wouldn't have killed him to be nicer! The baked goods looked good, so maybe the breakfasts here are really just an after-thought, there's lots of positive reviews about the pizza, and that might instigate a second visit. But as for breakfast, I think I'm losing faith. Would a kind soul point me in the right direction?

    Garlic pizza
    Laura K.

    The two times I have been here, the pizza has been delicious! Both times I got the 11" garlic pizza for £2.90. They bake the pizza fresh and it amazes me how little time it takes. It only took me 11 minutes to get from my room in High Holborn residence, order, pay, get my pizza, and return to my room--and our elevator is really slow!! While I think the garlic pizza is the cheapest at £2.90, most of the others are only £3.50. Either way, this is a great deal. But, I would highly recommend the garlic pizza!

    Ecco special
    Melissa Y.

    This place was a GREAT find! We were looking for a cheap place and I was craving pizza, which London is not really known for. We ended up here around 7pm on a Monday night at are two pizzas for about 8£ total. The pizza was very fresh and the cook immediately asked how many pizzas so he could get started on the dough. It only takes a few minutes to get a piping pizza made and both guys were really friendly. We ordered the Ecco special and the Garlic pizza. The special had ham, olives And artichokes and the garlic pizza had garlic and olive oil. The garlic one was only about 3£ and was smaller than the special. Each pizzas' crust was on the thinner side and not too done. If I was on study abroad in London, this would be one of my regular places for some fresh pizza!

    Great value coffee bar that does mainly sandwiches & pizzas. Great place to call for a coffee in the morning: large cappuccino and a free croissant for £2! As described elsewhere the place is a bit rough and ready, but it is clean and great value.

    Vegetarian Pizza (no cheese, yes artichokes instead)
    Beverly Y.

    This is probably as good as pizza will get for me, because I'm not a fan of cheese. You might be wondering why I came here in the first place, then, and the answer to that is really pretty simple: majority rule. Anyway, I opted for the vegetarian pizza (without mozzarella, with artichokes instead) and I have to say I was pretty satisfied. The crust was thin (my personal preference) and the pizza was surprisingly not greasy at all, which I find is a rarity these days. The taste was pretty good too - not too salty and not too heavy on the tomato sauce. One thing I really loved about this place was the service. Even though I probably won't be back (again, not a fan of pizza) I wanted to give a shout out to the people who took/made my order! Thanks for accommodating my dislike of cheese and making me something I could enjoy - and for a reasonable price (~5 pounds for an entire pizza), too.

    Oh my what a happy accident! Flew to London on last minute…read morebusiness. Met w Associates from Dubai and Australia. We had planned on going to a gem down the way but they were booked. Bilal had remembered an area nearby and we walked there. It was a rainy one and legging it was nice only because the rain mercifully slowed for a few minutes. We smelled something great. Walked for a bit and all three of us looked at each other and said... Let's go back to the wonderful smell! So glad we did. Our server spoke w Mo in Italian and was so sweet. The items are very reasonably priced. Check out the pics. All food was gone!

    Oh my gosh -- this was genuinely the worst restaurant experience I've ever had in the UK…read more We politely mentioned that we didn't enjoy one of the pasta dishes and simply requested a small modification. Instead of trying to resolve the issue professionally, the owner became extremely rude and dismissive. Shockingly, he brought us the bill immediately, refused to serve the rest of the items we had already ordered (including the tiramisu), and directly asked us to leave the restaurant. We were calm and respectful throughout the interaction, but he refused to even listen to our side before abruptly ending the conversation with, "I'll get your bill," and telling us to leave. I honestly don't know whether he was irritated because we had an infant with us or because we requested a modification, but the behaviour was completely unacceptable and deeply disappointing. I still can't believe a restaurant in London could treat customers this way. Truly unbelievable service and an experience I would never want anyone else to go through. We initially ordered 3 items. The pizza was absolutely fine, so we never raised any concern about it. However, the pasta simply didn't suit our taste buds, so we politely requested a few alterations. Instead of handling it professionally, you refused to serve the tiramisu as well -- assuming we'd dislike that too and ask for modifications? Honestly, I wish I had taken a picture of the pasta to show how it looked. As a restaurant owner, you should understand that every customer has different taste preferences. And just for clarification -- we never asked for the pasta to be cancelled. In fact, we were even willing to pack it and take it home after paying for it, despite not liking the taste. You were the one who offered to cancel the remaining order, and we simply agreed. I would humbly request whoever is in charge to please check the CCTV footage and see whether we were ever rude while requesting alterations. Throughout the interaction, you only kept speaking from your side and didn't even give my wife a chance to explain. Is that really what good customer service looks like?

    Paesan translated is a friendly greeting for your friend, buddy, homeboy…read more Keeping that traditon, Paesan near to Exmouth Market, is a fun, easy pasta spot with exposed brick and filamented lightbulbs, run by a friendly crew of Italians who will make you feel right at home. The upstairs is a corner view onto a street with dark woods and leather booths, while inside an open kitchen and a low-key young crew is putting out some simple, tasty food. Mostly appetizers, pastas and some pesce and carne dishes. Not a destination, but a good spot and one of the few restaurants on the street open on a Sunday. The downstairs basement hosts a cocktail bar that was closed on the Sunday we visited. We enjoyed the feel of the place, along with a bit of montepulciano d'abruzzo, some olives, a green salad, pork belly and a toothsome risotto with zucchini and prawns. Not a bad meal, priced pretty well, and a nice setting with friendly staff. We had such a good time that we failed to notice the police inspectress inside talking to the Paesan crew. The white and red police tape line both inside and outside the restaurant were in our peripheral view the whole dinner, but once outside, we noticed that a gigantic police triangle of tape took up the entire street corner, a female inspector was stationed there, and that down on the cobblestone sidewalk, a streetful of dessicated lemon and lime wedges lay from the night before, leading us to ponder, what exactly had happened here?

    This is my new favourite restaurant!…read more The restaurant used to be the Dollar burger restaurant, and has been revamped as an Italian artisan place with free bread and olive oil, big bottle of tap water and Arcoroc glasses for everything. The specials all sounded fantastic but I plumped for dandelion salad and the pumpkin and goats cheese pizza. Utterly yummy! Not excessive portions just packed with flavour. The waitress was helpful and calm and the red wine warm and fruity. I'll come again for definites. There is a cocktail bar in the basement and a choice of some interesting sharing options on the main menu for groups. Prices are very reasonable and if my meal was anything to go by, the rest will be as good. I am well impressed.

The service was great, our server was very kind and patient to explain everything to us. We even were able to change my friend's order after ordering because I walked inside to look at the specials menu, so we changed her order to Lobster Ravioli (not pictured here). The garlic bread came fast and had the appearance of a personal pizza. It is EXTREMELY fresh garlic forward, like it is going to sit with you for hours, the server will absolutely warn you about this but it is damn good. Our food came after we completed our bread and was very good. The Veal Milanese was tender and crunchy. The penne noodles with marinara sauce was a great side to this dish. Not pictured because it was too good, the lobster ravioli looked creamy and decadent. If you want to know how good, my fried ordered two servings. Overall this was a fabulous meal, this was some of the best Italian food I've had in my life. I will absolutely seek them out on my next trip to London so here's to hoping they are open for many, many years to come!
