Upon wondering the streets of London and having already eaten an incredible amount of chips that…read moreday, we opted for a new cuisine. Italian. Orsini was glowing from the outside and looked like a cute and quality cafe. We stopped in and ordered fresh pasta bolognese and lasagna (come early if you want the handmade tagliatelle- they were out when we arrived around 9pm). Both of our meals were deliciously fresh and we enjoyed both of them. There were about ten tables on the main floor and a small upstairs seating area as well. It appeared as if this spot had won many restaurant awards in the past, so we were excited to try the food out.

My…read moredaughter picked this for our evening dinner so I didn't want to make her feel bad about her selection. Fast forward 10 minutes and we are served what may have been the best Carbonara I have ever enjoyed in my long and miserable life. No cream, no peas, just fresh eggs, crisp bacon and cheese. For your sake, just order it. Now. Then, I was served Sagne Ricce alla Bolognese. This dish consists of an irregular shaped pasta served in an amazing Beef Ragu. I was in pasta heaven. The service was friendly and efficient, the prices (considering the top quality) were very reasonable. My stomach is growling as I write this review and I honestly cannot wait to return to Casa Tua.

This was the very first restaurant we visited during our week-long vacation in London, and it could…read morenot have been a better experience. We're from the States and had just arrived from the airport with our 3-year-old daughter, looking for a quick bite to eat before settling in. Everything was wonderful from start to finish. Our server was fantastic, and Flavia truly went above and beyond. She happened to bring out our food and immediately connected with our daughter, Emma. She was so warm, engaging, and kind that Emma talked about her for the rest of our trip. At the end of the night, the staff started singing "Happy Birthday" to Flavia, and Emma happily joined in. Flavia made Emma feel welcomed not just to the restaurant, but to London itself. To top it off, Flavia even brought Emma ice cream to help celebrate. That level of hospitality and genuine kindness is something special and honestly something we rarely experience back home in the States. Although we didn't get the chance to visit again during our trip, Emma will never forget her first restaurant experience in London thanks to Flavia. Thank you for such an unforgettable memory!

Truffle pizza was really really good. The atmosphere is also good, and the red wine we ordered was…read morevery good as well. Coming from NYC I didn't know what to expect when it came to pizza in London, but this pizza def met my expectations. The truffle looked scooped on so I spread it throughout the pizza so it was on every bite and added some salt. The pizza is thin enough for one person to eat. At least I ate the entire thing! lol Very good! Next time ill come with other people so I can try the other recommendations like the pork belly and a few other things that were pointed out to me. :)

Wow! I was looking forward to coming here and fortunately it was about a five minute walk from the…read morehotel. Started out the trip here the first morning. When you walk in it's overwhelming because everything looks so good. I was only ordering for myself, and it was a cluster deciding what to get. I went with an almond croissant and then also a blueberry muffin for later. It's the kind of thing where you want to order one of everything. Trust me. The almond croissant was very good. I really enjoyed it. I won't say it was the best I've ever had, but it was definitely up there. I usually do a standard butter croissant and I didn't because I was so overwhelmed with how good everything looked and wanting to try something more. In hindsight, I probably should have tried the butter croissant because I bet it would have been amazing. A friend tried some small cookies and I was able to sample those. They were also great. The blueberry muffin was also very tasty although it probably would have been better if I didn't wait 12 hours to eat it! Overall, you should come here and order a bunch of stuff. There's really no other way around it. I do feel that a place like this should have exceptional coffee as well. I got a flat white and it was only just okay The set up for coming in and ordering and then needing to move outside so you don't feel like you're crowding the register while you wait for your coffee drink is a little bit of a mess. They should have a better flow here or if they're going to have coffee have it off to the side or something. But it's really all about the pastry here and that's the star. The coffee is kind of and after thought anyway. Definitely check Ottolenghi out if you're in the area!

We loved Cafe Verona so much that we ate in this family owned cafe three times during our visit. We…read morelearned of the cafe because we were able to store our luggage through Stasher. We had our first cup of coffee here, and the owner treated us like family. The menu is a mix of Italian, Greek and British. We had a breakfast that was wonderful. I had eggs, avocado and toast that were so tasty and filling that I didn't eat the rest of the day. My husband had one of their egg, bacon and Gruyère cheese sandwiches on a baguette. He raved about that sandwich. For a quick meal, we picked up to-go boxes of their moussaka and a chicken curry. Both dishes were hearty and flavorful. The curry had a great spice level. The portions were generous. The prices are much more reasonable than any that you find in the area. The service is excellent. Many locals eat here. The cafe is comfortable with a handful of tables inside and a couple outside on the sidewalk. I highly recommend.

I had the moussaka and it was some of the best I've ever had. Side note,,,, there is a very mean lady who lives above the restaurant making his life miserable for no reason.

This is a delight of a person serving incredible food and he doesn't deserve her constant cruelty. If you're on Drury Ln. And want to support a good man making fantastic food, this is your spot!
