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.

    Staff not v friendly and no flexibility for changing anything. Felt rushed as pasta arrived the second our starters were finished. Pasta sauce disappointing not much flavour could have made it better myself at home.

    Outstanding venue for a family get together. Every dish on the menu was tempting. We all chose something different and every dish was fantastic. Recommend unreservedly.

    Excellent service from the waiter and manager who remembered from my booking note that we were celebrating a birthday. The food was great, and the seating was comfortable. We will definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

    The food we ate at Emilia’s was incredible. Every dish we had was beautiful. I felt the non-alcoholic drinks were overpriced and unfortunately the staff not particularly friendly.
