Emilia’s Aldgate is a fresh pasta restaurant located in the City within a few minutes’ walk of Aldgate/Aldgate East tube stations. It's our second restaurant following on from our first critically acclaimed and award-winning restaurant.

At Emilia’s all our pasta is made fresh every morning in our restaurant in full view of passers-by and served from our fully open kitchen. In true respect of Italian tradition, we use certified Italian produce and try our best to ensure no additives, artificial ingredients, preservatives or anything unnatural is in our food. We believe that food is much better when it’s 100% natural.

Our restaurant has a mixture of chef’s bar/counter seating (overlooking the open kitchen), normal tables, high top bar seats and a covered outdoor terrace.

P.S. We care for our people, our communities and the world around us. Please visit our website (www.emiliaspasta.com) if you would like to learn more about our approach to Sustainability.

    Have walked passed the restaurant in Wood Wharf a few times and said we needed to try it but we were in Aldgate today so popped in there instead. Lovely spot for a quick bite to eat. Simple pasta, done well. Loved both dishes (ragu and lamb ravioli) and will definitely come again to try some of the other menu items. Thank you for a lovely lunch.

    Friendly staff who were proud of their menu and quality of the food. Great bruschetta and burrata starters. All the pasta dishes we tried were wonderful. Good value salads to accompany. Loved the chocolate salami.

    Warmly greeted, menu choice ok, asked to add mushrooms to a dish but no flexibility, could bring some on a side plate. Was then charged extra for them. Service slow, ok for a quick bite but not a relaxed dinner

    This is the best Pasta I ever had 😉 Very good quality and very tasty, not only the main cources, but also starters and desserts. Reasonable portion sizes: not too big, not too small. Every time we are in London, we book a table at Emilia's Pasta 😀
