The restaurant is super cute and wasn't too noisy, making it a great place to catch up with a friend. We ordered three dishes: the beef carpaccio, cacio & pepe, and the tagliarini with Dorset crab. The cacio & pepe was my favorite by far. The portion felt right and the flavour was amazing. Sometimes it's the simplest dishes that are the best! The tagliarini was amazing as well, the flavours were really balanced. I liked the beef carpaccio but it only comes with 5 slices of beef and considering that it was a £14 dish, we didn't really think it was worth it. It was yummy though! Would definitely come back for the cacio & pepe alone.

The lunch is offered in 2 or 3 (dessert course) and the host that took our order offered to check with us after the first two courses to see how we were feeling before committing to dessert. Well, the appetizers and mains were so incredible we opted for dessert -- which is rare for us -- because we knew it was going to be exceptional and Cafe Murano delivered!

The pastas were nice and al dente but the highlight for me would have been the truffle arancini balls. We ordered lots of food and drinks - worked out to be £65 p/p. FYI there is no option to take away any leftovers so don't order too much as I did.

This was a happening place and we were lucky enough to get a table for two so we could enjoy their sweet treats. We also ordered the bruschetta, as it looked so good. The bread for the Bruschetta was so delicious. It was a soft bread and the flavor really worked with the tomato spread on top. The tomatoes were super sweet and flavorful, it was a lovely treat. The salted caramel gelato - well, how can you not like it? Enough said, it was very good. The Bundino was the slightly weak link. I would have chosen it last, but it was still a nice option for our dessert session.

Even though it was raining, you still have a nice full view of the water and bridge. Also, I believe there's a second floor upstairs. Menu wise, from what we seen of the food, it looked quite nice. Should have stayed here for food instead of where we ended up at. The ambiance and view were way better. Service was nice even for drinks. Our waiter was training someone else it seemed like. But drinks were great. A few orders of the margarita which was a hit. They all loved it and were about to go for another rounds but we had a reservation elsewhere. Their wine selection was quite impressive as well. When we arrived, it was still early so the restaurant wasn't busy at all. They even had the staff huddle while we there to prepared for dinner later. Just based on service with the drinks, this restaurant was great. The view, ambience, decor. Everything was excellent.

I had to have a piece. This sourdough crust pizza is gee wholly so amazing. You know it's good when you eat the entire crust when you normally don't (sorry-I'm a picky crust eater and will only eat it if it's not dry/tough/hard once it's cooled down). Man. The crust is chewy, flaky and has the perfect bite. Get a side of pesto to dip it with if you like sauce like me. Sauzzzzzzeeeeee mmmm. Organic lemonade made with Sicilian Lemons. Not overly tart and a nice compliment and refreshing beverage to clear your palate for the next bite. It's like a liquified intermezzo sorbet for to go. Get itttt. YUM YUM

Intimate and relaxed but still nice enough to feel that you are "out" somewhere. They bring you limoncello and nice dark chocolate mints at the end of the night. The decor and spacing is just right for the downstairs space. The food was fine. Not particularly memorable, but not bad. For this level of quality, in my opinion, the cost was too high. Our family of 5 had four pasta dishes (bolognese, amatriciana, carbonara, lasagna), a pizza, and 2 bottles of beer. The dishes were all a la carte. No salad or antipasti or dessert. The bill was nearly 140 pounds. This was our most expensive meal in a 10-day vacation, for which I expected more. The worst part of the experience was our waitress. An older lady who gave the vibe that she was the owner's wife or sister who just couldn't be bothered. After we were there for 10 minutes, she took our order with the smallest amount of effort. I asked for a beer and she gruffly said "we have Peroni ... Italian beer," followed by a stare. So I had a Peroni. Later, I noticed other tables were drinking different beers that must have been on the drink menu that she didn't want to bring me. She delivered our food (the orders were all correct) with minimal effort (most was delivered by runners) and then completely ghosted us for the rest of the evening. She was there, casually wandering around the restaurant, rolling silverware, stapling things together at the hostess station, bringing water to other tables ... not stressed or in the weeds with other tables. But, she wouldn't look our way. After we finished, part of our family left to our hotel and I stayed to pay the bill. The host (or maybe owner) brought our mints and limoncello, and another waiter cleared the dishes, so I thought the bill was on the way. It wasn't. I eventually stood up and waived down another waiter (who was very helpful) who fetched the host who brought us our (very large) bill. For all I know, the waitress perfectly lovely at other times and just had an off night. But, it really dampened our experience on this night.

They have where you can order at the counter and sit down, order at the counter and take it to go, or order thru the app and have it delivered to your table. I consider it more fast casual since they don't have formal table service. We ordered the bruschetta mozzarella- this was good but they need to use a more toasted crostini because the bread got soggy fast and just fell apart. We also shared the garlic bread with cheese which was amazing. It had real pieces of garlic and a good amount of cheese. Then I tried the arrabbiata- the penne noodles were well overcooked and soggy. The sauce was lackluster and had no spice, idk if they made it wrong or what but I did request a refund. Also because my fiancé's food showered up about 15mins before mine did and he was also finished by the time mine came out wrong. They did offer to remake mine but then is when I requested the refund because he was done and I didn't want to wait. My fiancé got the hot smoked salmon with tagliatelle noodles. He really liked it. I think it would be better if they left the salmon whole but they shred it into pieces. I'd probably return for drinks and appetizers if I go back. I also got the gunna raspberry lemonade and it's awful, way too sweet.

Wouldn't order it again, not that it's not good but I had better. The texture of the stuffing to me needs to be cooked well. Seems like it was just chopped and stuffed in the dough. I like my calzone with the meat precooked and not too under, that it seems like it was just stuffed raw in the fresh-baked dough. The bread part is very good, I give them a 5 on that. Too bad the stuffing didn't meet my expectations. I also had to add some salt to bring it up to the taste level I like so I can finish my meal. Paired it with a bottle of Moretti lager and it was a good pairing. The other order was the prawn linguine in mild hot sauce. The sauce is good, it's on the hotter side. For me, it's good heat, for my lady, it is a bit too hot. The linguini is cooked to perfection, sauce is good and needs nothing. I would have some shaved Parmesan but it was not offered. That would compliment it nicely. This was paired with a passion fruit martini. Perfect pairing. The service is very quick but you have the do some preliminary setting up to your phone. All web ordering and prepaid. Good selection but not a lot of options. Once you've done the slightly complicated app installation and online payment, you get your order within 10-minutes once submitted and paid for. For some seniors or less technical individuals, this will make them walk out of the establishment and go somewhere else. Might be too advance for them and rather eat in a traditional ordering and not so advanced paying process. Some people don't do well moving forward in technology and that's a fact. The location of this place is by the tower bridge, very nice view everywhere you look. There's some few outdoor seating and very limited. Inside interior design is very modern, nice collection of black and white frame pictures and lots of artwork. Very pleasant to look at. But it is quite noisy. Good for teenager dating but not romantic enough for adults. Good for group lunches and big families too.
