There is no way that this was fillet steak, my friend later said he thought it was braising steak but on reflection I believe it was a piece of skirt. I should have sent it back but we were tired and I didn't want to embarrass my friend. My friend said his venison was not good either.

Marconato is one of my favourite restaurants in England…read more It is an Italian restaurant, split over two levels, serving a wide range of traditional and more contemporary dishes, and there really is something for everyone. I heartily recommend the Mozzarella In Carrozza (Deep fried mozzarella in bread crumbs with salad and Marconato dressing) for a starter. I do love melted cheese and this cholesterol-laden dish is up there with the best of them. For a main courseyou can take your pick, but their pizza is very good if you like the genuine article. Aside from the food what makes this place good are the following hit points: 1) It's not overly expensive 2) It's ALWAYS busy so you need to book, but it shows the success of the place 3) They're very child friendly 4) The entertainment The entertainment takes place upstairs and changes throughout the year. It consists mostly of 'Stars In Their Eyes' style soundalikes and though I've never been myself (I think it's more of a girly thing) my wife and friends have all highly rated it and had a great time. Apparently the George Michael soundalike is the best?! There is a great atmosphere in the place and definitely suits being as busy as it is. A regular venue for us, and one for you once you try it I'm sure.

We took a chance on this restaurant as we knew nothing about the place before we tried it. Turned…read moreout to be quite pleasant. At eight o'clock on a Saturday night the place was well over half full. The menu was fairly extensive with a large variety of past, pizza and and steaks. The prices seemed fair. However, I wasn't blown away by any amazing food. I was all very mediocre. I did notice that this restaurant seemed quite family orientated and you wouldn't feel uncomfortable or out of place bringing children of any age here. The decor was clean and modern. The service was friendly and efficient.

We ended up here after a few hours at the pub on a Wednesday night. Every time I've passed by on a…read moreweekend, it looks crowded, plus I'm always on the hunt for delicious pizza in London. (So far, been underwhelmed with the takeaway/delivery options. Oh I miss you Pizza My Heart!) We walk in, there's a few people there even though it's 9:00 on a Wednesday night. Good sign. We order. PIzzas for everyone and a few starters. I had some cheesy bread (which was kind of like a pizza starter, oops), and it was quite tasty. I tried the other half's mussel juice, and it was incredibly tasty. The egg dishes the others got looked nice as well. Pizzas though, kind of underwhelmed. Mine was incredibly salty (which I should expect from anchovies, right?), but it just lacked a bit in other flavor profiles. The other half was a bit underwhelmed with his pizza as well. Will it stop me from going back? Probably not. Although it wasn't overly impressive enough that I'd go out of my way to go back here, even if it is relatively close to where I live. Funny story though, both pizza number 1 and pizza number 2 on the menu are called La Caverna!

We told the waiter he snapped "impossible, chef is bald" No sorry no nothing. Same waiter visibly crossed himself everytime he came to the table. The owner came with the bill at the end, plonked it down and then said to a member of our party "its been 4 years since you last came , we haven't missed you a bit. You always complain". We were gobsmacked as it was untrue and said is this how you treat your customers?. Owner told us very clearly he didnt care. Restaurant is very dated, quite shabby and dirty with very limited food and drinks menu. 2 other independent Pizza places just a few doors away will get out custom

The food is a treat,paticular note goes to the creamy carbonara,proper italian garlic and bread and very sweet strawberry ice cream. As mentioned before,its small but the tiles with images of some of the stunning Itlians towns and the lamps make a very cosy,unformal feel.The restaurant is of course not without its famous visitors,there are scores of photos and autographs all over the place,and recent visitors include Sir Alan Sugar and Sid Owen (who sadly,didnt get a table) the only drawback is its not that cheap,but i think for the friendliness and food,its sure to be worth it.
