Fantastic food. Cozy setting. Terrific service. I love this place.
Can’t fault this gem, does what it says on the tin, great Italian food, service with a smile, refreshing Moretti beer, and a bloody decent house red!
Every time we visit London we eat at Da Paolo’s. The food is amazing, portions large, service great and we don’t think it is expensive. We are already looking forward to eating there again next time we are down from Scotland.
Excellent, food great great atmosphere, best meal in London - large portions
Food was amazing, service was superb. Cannot fault this place
Lovely staff, and delicious food! More choice for vegetarians would make it a firm favourite... Noisy and squashed up, but that's perhaps part of the charm.
Delicious food. A delightful little restaurant. Will definitely be back.
Great atmosphere and good service. Food is good but don’t over order as portions are large.
The food was value for money. The portions were huge. The staff were nice and friendly. A small minus point was that the space of the restaurant is small and tables were placed very close to each other thus not much ambiance for people who want privacy. But if it is good food you are after this is the place!
Great food and nice, cosy restaurant. Good and friendly service.
It is a lovely place, nice decoration and cozy atmosphere. However, an annoying selection of tacky italian music was playing loudly in the background. Since the restaurant was packed (Valentine's), the overall noise was really uncomfortanble. Food is OK, but prices seem to be high for that cuisine level.
Very friendly,authentic Italian outstanding Food!very much recommended.Go and check it!
Amazing food. Probably the best Italian restaurant in London. Friendly staff, good atmosphere
Good food and service- definitely recommend. Enjoyed Great family lunch
A wonderful, authentic Italian restaurant serving good food and plenty of it at very reasonable, competitive prices. The goat's cheese salad was huge and their tagliatelle Bolognese might be simple but it's excellent and hits the spot every time. A hidden gem buried among loads of chain restaurants in Fitzrovia.
nice service and nice food! will visit in the future
The food is great and staff is very friendly! Great experience!
What’s a lovely find😊traditional cosy and spotless with attentive and friendly staff , a good menu choice and the food was delicious 😋 thoroughly recommend
Delicious food and wine at a great price. Service was good, but did have to ask to order and ask for water twice. They were busy, and it was a lovely evening.
Loved our visit. Brilliant food and wine with great service.
Tables very close together and could hear neighbours talking. Wine was ridiculously expensive. Food however was delicious and service perfect.
Lovely place with a unique, old-school atmosphere and knowledgeable, frienldy staff.
Our favourite LONDON restaurant, been coming here for years & have never been disappointed. Amazing food, uniquely brilliant service & a wonderful atmosphere. Everything a proper Italian restaurant should be - feels like a home from home, wonderful ingredients lovingly prepared. Love it & love that over the last three years the ‘specials board’ remains unchanged! The wild boar & squid remain a constant! Big love to all of the kitchen staff & the front of house team x
have revisited this place now several times, reliably excellent food and service

Fabulous restaurant, the food was amazing and plenty of it ! Cold not fault the service either, I've marked down the noise level only because there was a group of girls celebrating a birthday but hey they were having fun ! Would definitely return. Thank you Da Paolo :)
Incredible food, brilliant service and a lovely cosy atmosphere. The best Italian food in central London.
Really lovely authentic restaurant, tucked away from the madness. Food was so yummy and staff were very attentive. Definitely recommend.
Tables were a little bit cramped and very difficult to get in and and from the table.
Good quality Italian food with nice price. Not crowded. Would visit again

Amazing time with mamma and my boyfriend. This night was so special and the atmosphere was magical
Great food and a lovely atmosphere. Service was prompt, as we said we were going to the theatre.
Booked for an after theatre (matinée) trip. I enjoyed the meal far more than the theatre - but that's a different review!
We always enjoy Da Paolo. Great little spot for authentic Italian.
This restaurant have very helpful and professional accommodating staff. The food was great and portions generous. Will definitely visit again
It’s authentic, filling, Italian food. Do not expect silver service but do expect to be full and happy
Another perfect night out with friends at Da Paolo. Superb food in generous proportions, excellent wine and friendly and professional service. I can't rate this place highly enough. Visited many times and always superb.
Great atmosphere and really nice food. The staff were really kind and caring. Recommended.
Really quaint restaurant with a great atmosphere and excellent service
They accommodated my last minute request to increase our table from 5 to 7 people without the slightest hesitation. The food was excellent and contributed to a fabulous lunch.
