We were looking for an Italian one evening walking up West Street and found La Gondola, which was packed out with a hen party.
A table was available and we both ordered garlic mushrooms for starters with a bottle of house white wine. The service was prompt and unobtrusive , just how I like it. The starters were delicious and we did not have to wait long for our main courses , I had a spicy chicken dish and my partner chose macaroni baked pasta.
The atmosphere was great and the music was geared towards the large hen party, which added to the experience. The bill was £40 for 2 courses + wine which was very reasonable. I would recommend this as a more authentic Italian experience than the restaurants in Leopold Square. read more
