Not a bad place in Uxbridge town centre. The service and food are not bad. Worth a try.read more

2nd visit to Uxbridge and so wanted to have a really nice Italian dinner…read more We both ordered off the 2 items menu with my wife selecting the mushroom crostini and a pasta dish, while I ordered spaghetti and a tiramisu to follow. When the appetizer arrived I asked if it was possible to add garlic bread with our entrees and was told, absolutely. The mushroom app was fabulous, however a little short of bread, hence the garlic bread addition, for our entree. Our entrees arrived and we waited for the garlic bread. After waiting for sometime we started our entrees. The waitress came by and told us that the bread would be another 'minute'. The minute turned into many more minutes and the bread arrived after we had finished our entree's. We then sat for 10 minutes or more, looking at our finished plates and garlic bread having gone to waste. We caught our waitress's attention and told her we were all done. She respond, 'are we finished with the bread' and I responded, 'yes as it arrived after we had finished our meal'! After another 5-10 mins of waiting we were presented with dessert menu's and caught our waitress's attention before she left to remind her that we had ordered dessert with the initial order. The tiramisu was great as well:) While we would recommend Bella Italia because the food was delicious and tasty, other than the untouched garlic bread, the service was really very poor. This was definitely not helped by being charged for the 'late to the table' bread.

Bagatti's has become a bit of a South Croydon institution - there are so many restaurants on that…read morestrip that they face stiff competition, but Bagatti's has been going strong for years. As a kid I loved it for things like pesto, which seemed wildly exotic. Now, though, I know I can make a pretty good pasta dish at home with the help of Mr Sacla, and am loathe to choose a pasta place for a night out - although Italian places do offer the best desserts, so sometimes it's worth it if I'm feeling extra greedy. The thng that really lets Bagatti's down, in my opinion, is that it's such a big, hard space, and there is nothing - no soft furnishings or anything - to absorb the noise. This can make the atmosphere a bit jarring, not helped by the tables being crammed in so close together.

Myself, boyfriend and my friend who was visiting decided to come here on a Saturday evening. I…read morebooked a table as I have heard its quite a busy restaurant. We were seated straight away and offered the menu and drinks list. The only thing I didn't like about this place was the service. I found the staff to be quite moody, unfriendly and not very attentive, there seemed to be a group of adults with their children for a birthday who they seemed to be focusing more on than the other customers. Being italian myself I always find italian restaurants have the most friendly staff who always try their hardest to ensure your dining experience is the best it can be...this place had the opposite effect on me. This is a shame as the food is really good and I really enjoyed our meal and variety of cocktails. Some of the younger staff members need to put a smile on their face and be more attentive. Our starters came and we had no knifes, it took too long to get a staff members attention that we gave up and just ended up cutting our starters with the fork. My boyfriend ordered another beer and it was just slammed on the table and the waiter walked off without asking if the rest of us were happy or needed anymore drinks, we then had to try and get another waiters attention again to order more drinks. Its such a shame as I would be happy to go again for the food as it was very tasty, was at good prices and the fact the restaurant itself is really lovely. Its a shame some of the staff aren't as pleasant as the food, not even a thanks for coming when we left.

Billing themselves as "Feel Cuisine" (what is that?) this is best described as modern Italian in…read morestyle. On the site of quite a good cafe, this place has sacrificed seating space for cooking space, and also fairly ugly "modern" decor. High points- pasta dishes are very good, and the pan a cotta with berries is the finest of its type I've ever had.Low points- a started of some sort of squash tart was described as "stringy" with indeterminate flavours. Wine list is pretty good, leaning heavily on Italian wines ( which means it's relatively pricey). Expect a dinner for two to come to around £130.

Brixton has made some real changes in the last ten years, not all good, but Lounge on Atlantic…read moreRoad reflects everything that is positive about the area. The cafes location used to be know as the 'frontline' and is notorious for being the location of the Brixton Riots in the early eighties. Although this is still not a completely safe neighbourhood at night the street is now a mix of boutiques, cafes and restaurants and by far the best of these is Lounge. Run by local boy and former actor Maynard Eziashi (watch out for him in the beautiful Mr Johnson with Pierce Brosnan) the cafe used to be just a tiny room on the corner of the street. Now it is a large and fully licensed restaurant as well as a cafe with another branch in the nearby gentrified Balham. The cafe serves up homemade smoothies and shakes as well as full English breakfasts in the morning, ciabattas at lunchtimes and both exotic and traditional English food in the evenings all of which can be enjoyed by the huge windows facing out onto the extremely watchable street life of Brixton.

This…read moreis more of a café/lunch stop/large amazing house with great study and chatting spaces/deli. If I lived in Greenwich this could easily become my favourite café/weekend reading place/social spot. They serve a full selection of coffees, teas, desserts, pastries, cookies, and cannolis. They also have a wide selection of sandwiches, pastas, salads, and savoury pastries. You could fully spend breakfast, lunch, and dinner here. And they also actually do sell sausages (which is what I associate with a deli, anyway). [ décor / vibe ] This place feels more like someone's really awesome home than a restaurant. The space is large but well-used and well-lit. Enough tables for everyone without feeling cramped. There are three floors - whether you want a quiet nook to lose yourself in a book for hours or a place to chat with a group of friends around a table, you'll find the perfect spot. Servers have charming accents and are very nice. Will gently warn you when the place is about to close without being overbearing. Clean, well-lit, neat photos, whimsical produce crates nailed to the walls with jars and packages of pasta, etc. Charming. [ food ] Order at the front counter and your food will be brought to you. Wish we had a chance to try more of the food, but we only stopped in for tea and a snack. The feta pastry we split was fantastic. Would love to go back and try the cannolis. [ conclusion ] A gem of a spot that you could spend so many weekends exploring. Bring a book and/or a really good friend and stay for hours. Lovely place.
