What a nice addition to this area! Festa Sul Prato is a brand new, modern and intimate Italian restaurant located on Folkestone Park.
Built over an area that was historically damaged during WWII before becoming a nice park with pond and ducks, it brings new life to this up and coming neighborhood.
The restaurant is nicely decorated and modern, with plenty of natural light coming from the many windows overlooking the park. The Italian menu offers traditional dishes like risotto or tagliata (great food at great prices too!) The leek and pecorino risotto was delicious, especially accompanied with THE Italian aperitif: the Spritz! (not so easily found in London!).
The staff is very friendly and welcoming, quite a refreshing change compared to many other "cold" London establishments.
They also offer monthly themed dining events which are a nice opportunity to experience new dishes.
They have plenty of outdoor space, which I'm sure will be buzzing with life in the warm season. Being located inside the park with a relaxing pond with ducks, a kids play area, a basketball court, and a newly created skateboard park it makes it an ideal spot for friends and families.
I will definitely be back! read more
