Had a brilliant night in a group of eight at Donna Margharita. Excellent pizzas, very good wine list and superb service. The waiters made us very welcome and really added to the atmosphere of the night. Would highly recommend.

Friendly service throughout our visit and the food was excellent. It is rare to find Italian food that doesn't taste mass produced and our experience at Donna Margherita was of authentic Italian cooking.

Lovely, friendly atmosphere and good food. Pizza was good and staff even played with my son to entertain him. They brought his food straight away so he didn't have to wait. Will go back

Whilst this restaurant may be away from the London Tourist trail it was well worth the £9 taxi fare to get there. Food is superb, portions really generous and the staff very friendly and helpful. We sat in a part of the restaurant that gives the feeling of being outside. We had doughballs and olives to start followed by pizza. No room for a dessert. Washed down with some Chianti. The atmosphere is great with traditional Italian music in the background. Thanks to all.

Arrived on a Monday evening and glad we had pre booked as it was packed out. The food was very good and there was a nice atmosphere (although it was quite cosy as the tables are close together). Food prices were very reasonable although I thought the house wine was a bit over priced. Would definitely return again.

Nice food, but waiters were too busy watching football on tv (Italy was playing) and service suffered as a result. Might go again some other time.

Our food experience was lovely, and the ambiance was joyful all around us. However the service attitude changed instantly when we only ordered soft drinks, as if we were not spending enough. We would come back but purely because of the good food. Maybe the service had an off day, but it would of been nice to have a check back in the in the time we where there.

Best pizzas in London! Service is generally quite good and one of the waiters is always joking with my daughters, which they really appreciate. Recommend it!

We went to Donna Margherita for an early dinner for my husband's birthday before going to another event at 8pm. We ordered main courses from the specials menu given to us by the waiter. The waiter then returned to ask whether my husband would be happy to substitute boar for lamb in his dish, as the chef didn't have any lamb available. We said this was fine. Our starter of dough balls, which was lovely, came and went. Other diners who had arrived after us had already finished their main courses and yet ours had not arrived. An hour after we first arrived we asked a waiter to check on our mains, as we were very short on time. He first came back to ask use whether we had eaten them?! He checked again with the chef and returned to say that because we had ordered from the previous day's special menu (given to us by the waiter, and presumably with the knowledge of the chef, since we were asked about substituting the lamb) the chef hadn't cooked our food! Without asking what we would like to do, the waiter went off to ask the chefs to cook us the dishes we had ordered, but by this stage we didn't have time to wait and we asked another waiter to cancel the order. Now extremely hungry and running late, we were getting ready to leave when the waiter returned with the bill. Having waited for well over an hour for food we were being charged for the dough balls and one drink each. When we politely expressed our discontent the waiter began to argue with us. After some time we realised an impasse had been reached and we asked to see the manager, who was reluctantly fetched. The manager asked what the problem was and was sympathetic. He apologised for the mistake with the food and immediately cancelled the bill. The little food we ate was lovely, but the service was appalling. We understand that mix-ups happen. However, we were left extremely stressed, running for a train and hungry -- not quite the birthday treat we had anticipated.

The food and atmosphere was nothing shirt of fantastic. Staff are very friendly and informative and happy to recommend wine and food depending on your preference. My girlfriend went for pizza on recommendations from others and I went for the lamb ragus special both of which were delightful. Topped off by a pearl tart to share we were happily stuffed. Will be bringing friends here in the very near future.

Tasty food and good prices. Friendly staff but a bit too nervous although they all are Italians so I guess it's normal. Good location too. Remember to book your table in advance as it's quite busy there.

Bustling ambience. Attentive and engaging staff and service. Italian was the predominant language indicating authenticity of the cuisine. Some of customers were also Italian which is a good sign.

What to say about Donna Margherita... I've lived around the corner for almost a year and always noticed how it seemed to have a good steady trade regardless of the day of the week. I never tried it myself until last week and now I know why it's always busy - Food was delicious, service was good & the Puglian red wine suggested by our server was delightful and relatively reasonably priced- Top marks all round!

The pizza was great but I do think we paid way too much. We were in 4 adults and 4 kids and we ordered: 4 pizzas, 3 pastas, 5 desserts, 2 amaro lucano, 3 small water 1 bottle of prosecco( I presume was not more then £10) 1 beer we paid £200. This is more then Fratelli La Bufala in Piccadilli.
