Resto 16 Vasco & Piero’s Pavilion, Soho
V&P gets a maximum for being one of those rare restaurants that does apparently simple things flawlessly. Which isn't simple at all.
Resto 15 La Saporita, Stroud Green
At about twenty quid a head with service I don't know why you'd go anywhere else for trad Italian in this neck of the woods.
Resto 12 Irvin, Crouch End
With excellent service throughout and design that shows a close attention to detail Irvin is a very happy-making place.
Resto 9 Gusto, Glasgow
Enough savagery. The Chablis was excellent, as was the service. In fact Glasgow sets a high standard for service in the UK, from King Tut's to the Cathedral front of house was professional to the core.
Resto 6 Tomo, Hornsey
Excellent trad Italian with impeccable service.
Resto 5 Franco Manca, Kings Cross
If you want to survive in the Italian market you've got to do better than that.
Resto 3 – BFI Riverfront, Waterloo
A vast improvement in food, service and atmosphere, I'd like to go back some time and try out the rest of the pizza. Alas, we didn't have the time to linger and watch some Antonioni, spontanaiety being more elusive thanks to marriage to Mrs Woof.
