Rare visit to Gispy Hill for a West London resident. Found this hidden gem on the Google map. The fish and seafood soup was prefect 💯and best of the soup I had in UK - with fish, clams, prawns, mussels and HOT enough, nothing fishy. The homemade ravioli with lobster and clams was also delicious. Unfortunately I had no room for dessert, would love to try the tiramisu 😋😋😋 The staffs were nice and very attentive. Great food, happy experience. Will be back definitely!

I have never done a 5 star review for a restaurant but this one is the exception. Seafood Soup A delightful Zuppetta alla Pescatora (Fish and Seafood Soup) that perfectly captures Mediterranean seafood flavors. This classic Italian starter features a rich blend of seafood, including prawns, mussels, and fish. Chargrilled Lamb Chops Manuel's lamb chops aren't just a dish - they're a gastronomic revolution that challenges every preconceived notion about Mediterranean grilling. Imagine Sicilian shepherds meeting London's avant-garde culinary scene, all on a single plate. Chargrilled sea bass This was a masterful seafood experience. The whole sea bass arrives perfectly prepared, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to fresh, high-quality ingredients. Their Homemade Lobster and Prawn Ravioli is nothing short of a culinary love letter to the sea, wrapped in delicate pasta and kissed by a luxurious sauce. This dish transcends expectation with its harmonious blend of indulgence and finesse. Homemade Balsalmic Vinegar. Their homemade balsamic vinegar showcases an impressive depth of flavor characteristic of traditional Italian craftsmanship. The vinegar presents a rich, complex profile with a glossy, syrupy texture that beautifully enhanced the olives, char grilled sea bass and lamb chops. This was a compliment to everything we ate. Now that I think it, I should have tried it with the cheesecake. Mango Cheesecake The Mango Cheesecake delights with its exquisite presentation and tropical flavor profile. The dessert captures the essence of a perfect fusion between creamy cheesecake and vibrant mango The cheesecake boasts a harmonious balance of textures - a buttery, crumbly base giving way to a rich, smooth cream cheese layer infused with the distinctive sweetness of ripe mangoes Each bite offers a luxurious combination of tangy cheesecake and the fruity allure of mango, creating a dessert that is both indulgent and refreshing. It was so good that I had to order one to go. It was my birthday and they played happy birthday to me and everyone clapped and congratulated me. Their customer customer service is a culinary hospitality masterpiece that transforms dining into an extraordinary experience. The restaurant's service philosophy goes far beyond mere transaction, creating a warm, welcoming environment where guests feel like cherished family members. My wife and I will definitely be coming back here again.

Last minute find for us on a later Saturday afternoon. We made a reservation for 6.15pm. The food was absolutely delicious. My 6yo had the lobster linguine which he devoured and didn't want to share...lol I had scallops for starters and calves liver for mains and finished up with their tiramisu. Everything was cooked to absolute perfection. All the dishes we ordered were finished. The kids enjoyed as did my partner and I. We saw that they were doing a Christmas menu and it's the first time we'd ever considered doing Christmas Day not at home because the food was sooooo good. We enquired but they were already booked up since September. Not surprising really. Definitely recommend for families or a date night and for foodies seeking some quality local food. We will return. Highly recommended 👌🏽
