The food is nice but the restaurant smells of bleach. The waiter is unfriendly and spent more time on the phone than looking after paying customers.

I didn’t find it expensive for being London. If you go with children, they can easily share one pasta dish because portions are big. We didn’t try the pizzas, so I can’t comment on that. The tiramisu was amazing.

What a fabulous find. I wanted a non chain, authentic Italian restaurant for our recent trip to London. Il Cucciolo Restaurant in Soho, certainly delivered. Prices were really reasonable for London, and food quality and service couldn't be faulted. It is a small restaurant, but has a lovely bustling atmosphere. The chicken risotto was one of the best I've ever had. My husband and son said their Pizza's were as good as some that we've eaten in Italy. Thank you.

I always look forward to a meal at IL Cucciolo. It is a popular restaurant, impressively full for a Monday lunchtime. Yesterday there were 6 of us, celebrating my Birthday. We had garlic bread and garlic & mozarella bread to share and main courses were Spaghetti Carbonara, Salmon, Mushroom Risotto, Veal Milanese, Lasagna & Spaghetti Vongole. All plates were emptied as the food was delicious. We drank a 2022 Primitivo was enjoyed too. The meal ended with most of us having dessert, most of which are bought in but nothing wrong with that as they are very enjoyable. My dessert was presented with a candle and Happy Birthday was sung. Also, as it was my Birthday, we were treated to an after dinner drink.

Proper authentic Italian food in an amazing location at a very affordable price. The negroni I had was one of the best I've ever had and that goes for the food too. The portions were huge and the food itself was delicious. I will definitely be back.
