A fun, bustling restaurant with tasty food at reasonable prices despite the menu being carb-heavy (pizza, pasta, bruscetta and arancini). The staff were polite and efficient but lacked the charm that I have experienced in restaurants elsewhere. The table for 2 was quite small and wedged between two other tables so I could clearly hear my neighbour's conversation and the table was not big enought to comfortably hold all of the sharing dishes. Whilst I would probably go again, next time with a group of friends, it is not top of my list.
Great food, great service and a great atmosphere! Would definitely recommend.
Fabulous place. Excellent service - friendly and professional. A little noisy - but that is to be expected on a Friday evening
The server was absolutely lovely. She was Italian and took extra steps to make our experience a good one. The food was also great.
overall it was an enjoyable experience, friendly staff and quick service
Nice food, busy but ok service but far far too noisy to enjoy a meal!
Disappointed in the pudding, much better at the kings road restaurant
Really great service, food wasn’t amazing as always. Would really recommend!
Really good food and great atmosphere - will visit again soon
Great atmosphere in a very friendly restaurant. Relaxed restaurant meal.
As great as it always does. Good for business lunch
Amazing Food and service. We loved it. Would come back for sure
Great experience and food, our go to place for client lunches!
Lovely food but not great atmosphere and slow service sadly
Compared to my last visit which was great, this one was very average. Perhaps because we were at the tail end of lunch it felt like we were in the way. Our starters were forgotten so we opted to just have mains and dessert. There are too many other restaurants to try to return to Polpo.
Great food, excellent vegetarian choices. Staff very friendly. We had a lovely brunch
Great service, no pressure, very relaxing and delicious food. Thanks
Really nice place - food always good. Perfect sharing options.
Great food and service - never disappointed. The sword fish as meatballs are particularly good!
Had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the food.
It was simply great. A little loud but totally worth it.
Went there for lunch with a colleague and it was pleasant. The service was great and the food came really quick! I had the sea bass and it was lovely and would definitely have again.
Food and atmosphere great. They were busy but service still excellent. Highly recommend
Lovely food, amazing service and a great buzzy but laid-back vibe.
Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Service was excellent.
Great meal, food was superb sat close to the kitchen great seats
Nice Italian Restaurant. Great for sharing plates and drinking a negroni...
Great food, nice staff, good vibe. I Will certainly return.
food is decent, more of modern European style with a hint of Spanish food.
The food was great but by the end of our meal we had to seek out a server as it felt we had been forgotten and wasps were circling the empty plates.
Our food was lovely and the service was brilliant! Great atmosphere too, so we had a lovely lunch.
We had a great time!!! The food was so good and the atmosphere was awesome. We were taken care of by the kindest host :)
Amazing food, nice staff, everything was really great. We recommended!
I love Polpo and it is great you can book in the evening at the Smithfield branch.
Lovely lunch and food. Was a bit hot inside but was one of the hottest days of the year to be fair.
great place for meeting clients or friends - nice formal/informal mix with great food. We ordered ad. few dishes and shared. Service was excellent and friendly
Staff were very friendly and attentive, especially whilst I was waiting 40 minutes for a friend to arrive. They made me feel welcome and they were fun throughout the evening. We will definitely be back to this little gem of a place.
Food poor. Service slow. Overall disappointing compared with the Soho venue.
We loved it so much! Such a lovely place with delicious food and friendly staff. So presentable and yummy food and amazing aperol. Deep worth a visit
Nice service, good spot sitting in the sun. I'd heard great things about the food and some things definitely delivered, but others fell a bit flat.
