    I ordered the Rigatoni Gricia, took one bite, and immediately felt like Poseidon himself had seasoned it for me. It wasn’t pasta; it was a culinary crime scene drenched in enough salt to preserve a woolly mammoth. Trying to keep it classy, I waited until the end of the meal to discreetly tell the waiter it wasn’t for me—calmly, directly—and mentioned it was inedible. Not a peep from anyone during the meal, mind you. They didn’t check on us after the mains were dropped off like plates of shame. When I asked for the dish to be taken off the bill, I thought that was it—case closed, lesson learned. But no. That’s when he arrived. The manager. A man who strode over like he’d just been knighted by the Pope of Pasta himself. He puffed up his chest, declared, ‘I am Italian, and this is how it’s supposed to taste.’ Oh really? Salt-flavored regret is authentic cuisine now? I guess I missed that episode of Chef’s Table. When I suggested he taste it, he flat-out refused, as though the mere idea of accountability was beneath him. And then—then!—he proceeded to argue with me in front of my entire party like a man possessed by the ghost of over-seasoned dinners past. Imagine Gordon Ramsay on a bad day, but with none of the charm and all of the condescension. So there I sat, gobsmacked, as this wannabe pasta prophet tried to gaslight me into thinking this dish wasn’t an edible disaster. Long story short, it’s just another ‘Italian’ restaurant in London getting by on glowing reviews from people who apparently think gourmet cuisine and a packet of salty crisps are interchangeable.

    A Factory. Midget- sized tables. Sale e Pepe/ Portobello Ristorante have Nothing to Fear from This Place. 4.9 out of 5 (Trip Advisor) : You Got To Be Kidding... and a 15% default tip????? Thankfully, the Waiter Realized the Absurdity of Such and removed it (I had offered 10%) Plus: Limoncello, gratis. . Whole Place Needs a Re-Think

    I've eaten a lot of pasta carbonara in several Italian restaurants (Rome, Paris, Barcelona etc) and I can tell you that it's simply perfect. And for my wife, pasta with truffles is also perfect..

    Great little restaurant with pasta made from scratch and awesome service to go along with it. Reminded me of growing up in Chicago. Best meal I’ve had in London yet. Better make reservations. There was a line to get in.
