Carluccios is always great. We took my daughter who has allergies (soya and dairy) but allergens are not shown on the menu. The manager did come to see us with the allergy list but we didn’t find her particularly helpful and found it difficult to find a suitable meal for our daughter. She ended up just ordering a starter. It would be helpful if the allergen list was available on the website so we could have decided in advance as to whether the restaurant was suitable.

The restaurant was very busy, not surprisingly as school half term & near museums, so service took longer than desired. When food came, the order was initially wrong.

Miserable waitress. Utterly charmless. Phoned it in totally throughout the meal. Two of three dishes were served poorly. One was cold and the other had very little meat sauce. Desserts were very tiny portions which for £7 a pop was terrible value for money. However, the manager did comp one dish when we complained which at least recognised the poor food and service. Atmosphere was reasonable though and quite festive although it distinctly felt like none of the staff wanted to be there.

Used to come to Carluccio’s lots when our kids were babes and toddlers. So good to come back for grown up family meals where there is something for everyone. Great atmosphere, excellent service, delicious food.

The restaurant is a nice place and location and was very busy, lots of loud children 😂 when we arrived. We were attended well upon arrival, which we arrived 30 mins early but were seated. The waiter was good and attentive also. I ordered a Tuna Salad, the potato’s were cold as if were sitting all day. Tuna was ok, but I’ve had a lot better. There was literally one anchovy in the salad. The fries were luke warm cold. So overall below par to expectations. I ordered a beer, which I noticed after drinking was past its sell by date 😮‍💨. Overall it was ok but some issues.

Exceptional food we all agreed, be it the Sea Bream, Duck Confiet (a new addition to the menu I believe-please keep it) or Veg option. The Orange sauce for the Duch was sensational and the potatoes done to perfection. Wonderfully seasoned with Rosemary. I asked them to leave out the Garlic and they did! They went the extra mile and gave me some Fennel Salami and Parma Ham from the Kitchen at retail price, to take home, which was beyond my expectations too! I recomend this restaurant. South Kensington location is ideal too- A perfect Day!

We always enjoy Carluccios but we were disappointed to find the kitchen was closing even though we had booked a 10pm time slot in advance. Perhaps on line bookings should be updated with this information.

Worn-out cafetaria atmosphere. No yoghourt. No fresh fruit. No granola. No brown toast. Fruit juice from a box. Very small sized portions. This is unacceptable for a breakfast place.

Was seated very quickly but was then presented with our side dish as a starter and left to sit there for 45 mins to 1 hour waiting for our main meals. Food was okay, didn't fully enjoy my chosen course as tasted burnt in some areas. We were then charged 12.5% of our bill as a service charge which felt this was very steep considering the 'service' we received.
