    Now I normally cannot find a bad thing to say about Osteria Pulcinella. The food is perfect, the ambience is the right mix of cosy and relaxed and the decor is suitable Italian trattoria-like. The service is usually incredibly warm and friendly and spot on.... however on this particular Sunday lunchtime, it was so haphazard we were left bemused when the experience is usually so much better. Perhaps our waiter was hungover? When seated I had to ask for the specials menu and the wine list which usually are given automatically. Then we had to wait ages to order, and had to get the waiter's attention to ask if we could order. When one person was offered parmesan on her pasta, despite the fact that I also had a pasta dish the waiter did not even look at me but turned on his heel and walked off and I had to wave and call him back to ask if I could have some too. And when i asked for black pepper, instead of the usual waiter grinding the big pepper mill a broken one was dumped unceremoniously on our table. We also got warm milk when we asked for cold with our coffee. I will still go back without hesitation, and hope that it was just a one off. The food was still just as good as always.

    This is a little italian place that is always a hit! If you bring your friends either local or from out of town they will think you are a foodie genius for bringing them to Osteria. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu.

    Different to the run of the mill italian menu. still plent of pasta choice though. The food which we did order was very nice and full of flavour. The place has atmosphere and was a nice resturant to dine in. We had 2 bottles and 2 glases of wine between 5 of us and it came out at just over £50 a head. Not lived in Twickenham for a good few years but we eat in Earls court only three days ago and it came out at £35 a head for the same amount of food and wine, so I guess Twickenham could be a little pricy. Marks out of 10 a solid 8

    We've dined here on several occasions and it has become one of our favorite restaurants. The food is very good, the staff are friendly, service is excellent and they do a proper Aperol Spritz and Campari Soda!

    As a very regular customer to this restaurant, I was really disappointed with the winter menu. It is a rustic Italian restaurant with fantastic staff and service. It is always busy and the food has been excellent. Why are they trying to be over clever with the menu? Rillettes? Rabbit Ragout? There are very little pasta dishes on the menu and only a couple of dishes for Vegetarians. We won't be back until the menu changes, such a pity.

    Very good food, excellent service and a nice atmosphere. Italian food can be very samey, but not this restaurant. The menu is not too big, has a few flashes of originality and the specials were excellent. Friendly quick service and a busy but not too noisy ambience.
