• Italian • Waterloo

Booked 8 times today

Since the Romans left, the Italians have been operating a policy of conquering the world's palate, plate by plate, and traditionally-run family restaurants like Cotto are their failsafe. The welcome is unfailingly warm here, the decor is authentic in feel, with murals on the walls, and the pleasures of the table are taken seriously indeed. Cotto is a 5-minute walk from the London Eye and the Aquarium, perfect for before or after family outings and it's also very popular with business customers during the week. There's live music on offer, too. As for the menu, try classic Tricolor salad to start, one of more than a dozen pastas, like Spaghetti carbonara, and a main course of simply and beautifully grilled Sirloin steak. Or just opt for a pizza and be happy!

Booked evening meal at Florentina as very convenient for our overnight stay in Park Plaza. Really delicious Calamari Fritti followed by chicken Romana with Parmesan frites. The chicken was superbly cooked - moist meat + light fluffy/crispy batter with stalk of roasted vine tomatoes + rocket lettuce. The serving staff were excellent + happy to serve with a smile. We chose a table near serving hatch so observed the chef + his team doing a great job.
