I think this makes it a typical example of all those lovely little places that make up our daily life. They are fairly unassuming but we'd be lost without them. Portobello Wholefoods is tucked away in a dark corner under the railway bridge, at weekends you barely notice it. During the week it provides the perfect addition to the fruit and veg stalls along Portobello Road. They stock everything you'd expect from a decent health food store at OK prices. One of the highlights for me includes the large selection of loose teas; I'd be lost without my fix of vanilla or mango tea in the morning! You can go hardcore with green and herbal as well, of course. All tastes and dietry requirements catered for.

Sometimes I find shops like this can be limited, but Wholefoods always seems to have exactly what I'm looking for. I mainly come for the amazing choice of vitamins and supplements as although I'm not a vegetarian I really don't see the point of taking something that's meant to be good for you, but actually has weird animal additives added or is encased in a gelatin shell (last time I checked boiled animal skin and bones really don't do anything for you). Also, I've met a lot of different staff and they are all eager to help with their wealth of knowledge on all things healthy. It's probably a tad more expensive to shop here, so you should stick to getting your more mundane items such as dried fruit from the supermarket, but for something a little bit special it's perfect. Why not try the gelatin free raspberry jelly or the fortified mineral water (you take your own bottles to fill and pay by the litre). Another great idea is that they don't automatically give you carrier bags at the till. There are a few used ones available if you really need one, but why not follow their lead and bring your own canvas bag to fill up.

Service is excellent, as fast or slow as you prefer it, and the place has a great atmosphere. The Italian staff have plenty of energy and it was buzzing by 5 pm on a wet Friday. Portions are large and the food is good, not spectacular but served hot and fresh and very fairly priced for central London. The pizzas have plenty of toppings and the crust is crisp (the base itself is not), almost like a cracker, but very tasty. A solid option and a better option than the prepared hot food at some of the places in the station itself.

I had the best service of my entire life at this beautiful and wonderful restaurant. Being able to sit at the bar and watch the chefs as they cooked my meal was so nice. Everything was made fresh the pizza was fried perfectly in the fire too! My pasta was so good and my ravioli was so good. I'm actually so disappointed we don't have a restaurant like this in the states, the staff was also super friendly and accommodating. I was able to ask them suggestions on local pubs in the area that I could visit since I was from the state and I was visiting London they were so friendly so attentive the drinks were phenomenal and the dessert was even better. I will be glorifying this restaurant until I can go back and visit. I feel like I would take a trip to London just to come back to this amazing restaurant 10 out of 10 experience and the food is phenomenal!
