Il Girasole

Neighbourhood and local restaurant. Very pleasant and helpful staff (needed wifi to do work). Food arrived in good time, and was excellent quality. Very good value - chose the lunch specials.

Most delicious restaurant in London. the food is always special, unusual, hot (important for me) the atmosphere and service friendly and fun. very efficient. I love it, and it is my first choice always.

Fantastic food, wonderful service and great value. Will definitely visit again. The calamari in particular was beautiful. Felt like a genuine Italian dining experience. Top marks

fabulous meal, fabulous service, great wine, Gnocchi, and melanzane wonderful....everything great, as always.....It's definitely my favourite restaurant, anyplace! I go there again and again, and bring people from all parts of London and farther to eat there!

A wonderful atmosphere with welcoming and helpful Italian staff. This restaurant gives you a real taste of Italy both in its food and decor. The food was fresh, honest and typically moorish. If you want a casual and family friendly Italian meal with high quality food and wine, this is your place. We went on a Saturday at 7pm and it was packed. Book in advance!

Fantastic, fresh food and friendly staff. New specials, unique ingredients and the biggest prawns I've ever seen. We had a meal for 4 which was well priced and absolutely delicious.

Excellent, as ever. Lovely service, delicious food without frills - just fresh ingredients cooked lovingly -, and a lively atmosphere. What more could you want of your local restaurant? We feel welcome every time, and will keep coming back. It's great with kids too - the owner and all his staff/family are so friendly towards them. Not a given in London.

An excellent restaurant. So friendly and really tasty food. Always popular with the locals and never disappoints - we had a lovely evening with good food and wine. Buono!

A good local Italian restaurant with some interesting pasta options. The lInguini polipetti was particularly good. Service was friendly and the wine excellent. All very reasonably priced.

It is a very cozy place. I usually go with my family and my daughter loves it. The food and wine is great, it is authentic Italian food. I really recommend it if you want a nice evening out to unwind from your daily doing. I hope you enjoy it too ;)

A very busy, family run Italian restaurant. The hosts can't do enough for you and the quality of the food is great. Book early to avoid disappointment or having to take away.

Authentic italian. Great food. Friendly staff. We had the pizza rotolo, which was epic. Price was a bit higher than usual chains but atmosphere was a bit special so probably worth it.

Excellent meal fresh authentic Italian cuisine friendly service good value for money Sea bass was beautifully cooked with crispy skin on a bed of delicious spinach

Great restaurant. Wide range of customers from couples to families. Food just perfect. Atmosphere buzzy. Service delightful. Good menu and specials. A proper local eaterie.

Excellent in every way, very friendly, efficient and speedy service. The recommendations for their food and wine were absolutely perfect. Great experience and so we will be eating there again soon.

Excellent food with a nice variety on the menu, came across as a family run restaurant with good service and a genuine care for whether you liked your meal.

Il Girasole is a neighbourhood restaurant with excellent Italian food which is very well presented. Service is very good and the main courses and starters are reasonably priced. The atmosphere is busy and friendly. I would recommend the specials which are on offer each day. All in all, this is becoming a favourite restaurant with many locals in the Earlsfield area.

Fantastic restaurant, fantastic food. You know you've found a gem of an Italian when the owner is Italian, waiters/waitresses are Italian and all the tables around you are Italian! Always a good sign

We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere at Il Girasole. Wandsworth residents are lucky to have this excellent neighbourhood Italian restaurant where the food is delicious, service friendly and the ambiance very comfortable. My deep fried calamari and courgette mix was very special as was my friend's goats cheese starter. The pasta of the day and sausage and lentil stew were also very good, as were the pannacotta said. Including wine the bill was £64 for two, good value, and we shall return.

Great authentic Italian with reliable staples, fresh specials and always a warm welcome . Highly recommended - equally good for a quick lunch or a longer special event.

We had an excellent meal at il Girasole. The food, service and atmosphere were all great. I can recommend this restaurant as somewhere to go.

As ever, a wonderful experience at our favourite neighbourhood restaurant. Great service, brilliant authentic food - the lamb special was particularly tasty - and a very lovely night had by all.

Lasagnette was dry to the point of cracking when I tried to cut it, but somehow with the blue cheese sauce the softer parts I still enjoyed. Other dishes were very nice as usual, service as friendly as always.

Simple food cooked really well with delicious fresh produce. Lovely service too.

Great pasta, definitely go again. Place has a nice vibe, good service and affordable. Probably the best tortellini I have had, hard to fault really.

Delicious food, as always. Variety with menu...wonderful service, charming staff. And my favourite restaurant. That I go to over and over....everyone I recommend it to agrees with me!

Lovely Italian food, very sweetly decorated place, friendly service, perfect little terrorist in the local neighborhood. Everything we tried was exceptionally delicious, flavours both robust and delicate. I miss Italian cuisine in London so this was a lucky find. A gem.
