Best Romantic Restaurants in Herne Hill

A fantastic experience, among the best of fine dining available. The aesthetic and atmosphere is beautiful & relaxing, the tables are spacious and we didn’t feel clustered in at all. The food was beyond delicious; from the duck, pork & chicken terrine with pickled vegetables, to the mouth-watering venison flank (cooked to perfection) and outstanding truffle mashed potato. The staff were lovely, especially the manager of the night who was attentive, respectful and generously assisted when I asked for a video for a special occasion. The gentleman who sorted our drinks (especially pairing a lovely Bordeaux to my venison and a Chablis to the chicken dish) was also wonderful. For special occasions, this is a truly lovely place.

Loved everything! The Orzo was fantastic. But the best part was the burnt chocolate cheesecake. A must!!! We’ll be back

I visited Bocconcino with my 15 yrs old son. We had carpaccio and melanzane parmigiana as starters, and ravioli with seabass and a plain ham and cheese pizza as mains. My son had the tiramisu for desert. I used to live in Italy and know Italian food. Bocconcino really brings out the flavors in every little piece of the dishes. I rarely order pasta as I get easily full, but I’m happy I did this time. Wonderful flavors. The carpaccio came with little dressing which was acidic and a great asset to the dish, I could munch them for lunch. The tiramisu jiggled like a master chef one. Absolutely well worth a visit.

Fantastic Italian restaurant Super friendly people So easy to book and accommodating our host was more than happy to take the time to explain the various dishes on the menu and making recommendations We started with the carpaccio and burrata which was outstanding and then mains of truffle pasta and steak which were also superb In fact the experience was so good that we are returning tonight for our last meal in London! We would have no hesitation in highly recommending this lovely restaurant for quality of its food, service and ambience Try it you won’t be disappointed!

While food was ok, IMO not befitting of a 5 star hotel in an exclusive location like The Shard. Service was also not supreme with long waits for drinks and no return visits to ask if we wanted refills when drinks were empty. Restaurant furniture, floors and tableware also a bit shabby. The view makes up for it but will unlikely be returning.
