The 3 course pre-theatre menu was just what we needed - interesting, well executed and sufficiently varied to please all four of us. It was also well balanced so that we weren't too stuffed to sit comfortably through the show afterwards. Lovely staff.

Nice little restaurant with absolutely amazing food. The service felt a little slow hence the marking of 5 but it was a lunchtime. I would definitely go again and highly recommend them.

Wonderful fresh, beautifully prepared and presented food. We ate from the pre-theatre menu. The stracciatella salad starter was delicious as was my salmon main course, and companion's gnocchi and then pineapple-based dessert. The house red wine was excellent value. Particular compliments on the coffee - best I've tasted outside Italy! Very pleasant stripped-back, immaculately clean environment, quick and "non-invasive" service and blessedly restrained background noise. Will be back!

The staff were attentive and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed. The food was good but wouldn't say outstanding. Good value for money if ordering from the theatre menu.

Lovely food and good service especially if slightly rushed to get to the theatre. Pre-theatre menu has interesting dishes, just bear in mind portions are small so best to opt for the 3 courses & prosecco deal.

Average food quality combined with average service and overpriced probably explains why restaurant was so quiet. No real warmth in the level of service was the biggest issue

booked to see Mamma Mia at the Novello Theatre which is directly opposite the restaurant. Decided to have a pre show meal with 4 family members and decided on Four to eight due to it's very convenient location. The choice could not have been better. We had a most enjoyable meal in great surroundings. A really good start to a very enjoyable evening.

Food was very good on the whole but some portions were very small. Nice ambience and good service but our table was uncomfortably close to the next one to the extent that we had to disturb other customers when leaving the table for any reason.

Four to Eight provided an interestingly different menu. The dishes were well cooked and expertly presented, and the staff couldn't have been more pleasant. A little over-priced perhaps, but this is London, and the restaurant is very conveniently situated for London theatres etc.

We mostly enjoyed our pre theatre meal. However one of our party was disappointed I her sirloin on the bone as it was so fatty. We also thought the measure given for wines by the glass were rather "mean" !! The Amaretti Crunch was also disappointing.

I have always had a wonderful experience in this restaurant, but this time was a little bit worse. Octopuss was not very good, and rissoto was a bit dry. However, carbonara taggliateli are impressive (as always) and all the employees are fantastic.

Simple yet lovely restaurant. Conveniently located for some of the theatres closer to Covent Garden area. Food was lovely and waitresses were attentive. Particularly enjoyed the Burrata...Clam pasta and cheesecake. Had a good range of wine selection from across the globe with a wide enough budget range. Will be back.

Great place for lunch after The Courtauld. Really enjoyed the Carbonara and we were both blown away by the deconstructed Lemon Tart and Lavender Ice Cream. Relaxed and unobtrusive service. Would recommend it and will certainly go again.

This was a last minute reservation for us but glad we made it. Was really impressed with all the staff that we interacted with, they were all so friendly but not that uncomfortable in your face service you can sometimes get. The food was remarkable, couldn't find a single thing wrong with it. The restaurant itself was lovely and a little qwerky, will definitely be back and would recommend going here to everyone!

Great service from our waitress. There was no pressure to hurry our meal unlike some other restaurants. We were there for almost 3 hours enjoying 4 courses and some drinks. Food was very tasty and obviously freshly prepared and cooked. Good value too. We will be back, and soon!

We were a party of 5. Starters were ok. Octopus a bit too burned. Nice Arancini and Burrata. Main dishes were also just ok. Risotto was quite unseasoned, a mini duck portion, vongole with tiny clams but tasted good. Chicken and carbonara were quite good though. Overall, very more or less restaurant - for the price I would expect more. Ah, good drinks!

This is a lovely Italian restaurant, the pasta is cooked to perfection and was so delicious that we couldn't sadly manage a dessert. They make a mean cocktail in here too.

Fantastic authentic Italian food. We had the carbonara, which is not creamy but nice and cheesy. Staff were attentive and very nice. I was also very impressed with the new lunch menu, which makes dining there a little more affordable, which means I will be able to go back more often, happy days!
