    We had such a wonderful time at La Cucina di Daffy. The family owned restaurant is a hidden gem, such a cozy atmosphere serving authentic Italian food. We loved everything about this restaurant and the staff was so so lovely to us. I totally recommend the restaurant for anyone who is looking for a cozy little authentic Italian restaurant in central London. 10/10

    Unfortunately even though we had a booking and arrived on time we were told the kitchen was closed and that they weren’t willing to help us. There was still booking times slots available after the one we chose so it was hard to understand why the booking showed as available online. Very frustrating and the patron was rude.

    An excellent evening. Delicious food, very attentive and helpful wait staff, a chat with the owner which was really good, we will definitely return. The only very slight problem was that it was a cold evening and we had a table by the door which was open a lot as there are tables outside so the food was going in and out. I am sure if we had managed to get a table located elsewhere it would have been fine and a 5 stars all round.

    A reasonably priced, well run and extremely friendly cosy family Italian restaurant. We were made very welcome (a friend I visited after work), the food was excellent and a very good wine list. I thoroughly recommend it for a really authentic taste of Italy with a great choice of wines which won’t break the bank

    I walked by the restaurant, saw the carbonara (no cream, it said!) on the menu and tried it for dinner. It was good. The restaurant is aptly named, because I felt like was in Daffy’s personal kitchen and being cooked for. This is a small restaurant and it felt so personal—thanks Daffy for talking with me and making me feel so welcome. I told her I would bring my wife to restaurant when she comes with me next month to visit London. If you want corporate cooking, don’t come here. I am going to return tomorrow night and try the pacherri salsiccia e fiarielli.

    A cosy little family restaurant with very good food and service. All the staff were very friendly and attentive - often topping up our drinks. The food was tasty and portions a good size. We will be back.
