Excellent gluten free menu. Desserts that aren’t typically available to gluten-free folk. The house red was particularly good. Service was wonderful. Our second time in three days.

Noisy restaurant. We were told that requesting the addition of tuna to a Napoli pizza was an offence to the chef. We didn’t feel welcome.

Was moving my daughter into her new flat up the road and booked Cotto as somewhere convenient with good reviews. When we arrived, the owner and staff could not have been more friendly and we enjoyed a great evening. Starters of octopus and sardines were very good, mains of pizzas also. Went for a bottle of Vermentino at £30 which was perfect. Would gladly pay £10-15 for this at Majestic/wherever, so the mark-up was very reasonable. All in all a great little Italian and next time I'm up in London to see my daughter, we will definitely visit again.

Pesto bought in the supermarket for sure. We were seeing all desert which were taking out from the frizer. They only add chocolate or caramel on the top to create a "home made". They are all italians but it is not Italian food at all.

Good food but service from the man at the entrance and two of the waiters was very short and rude, we couldn’t wait to get the bill and leave at the end. Such a shame as it could be so lovely.

The restaurant is located close to our hotel which makes it very convenient. The food was outstanding and the ambiance reminded me if I was in Italy. Looking forward to going back. The father is such a hospitable man! Love his presence.

Cosy traditional restaurant with a larger-than-life proprietor. The food is good, but what makes it exceptional is the huge choice of gluten-free options - almost every thing on the menu has a GF alternative.

Good atmosphere, nice foods. Right in front of the tube station. All foods can be served gluten free if you have an allergy. A bit small but I will visit them again :-)

Being coeliac, I am always worried about eating out, but Cotto came highly recommended and it didn’t disappoint. I had the olives to start and they were the nicest olives I have ever had (I’m not usually a fan). I had pizza for my main and it was lovely. Highly recommended by me!

Amazing best place ever, Lino is a magician. Gluten free and people with no allergies will be extremely happy. Sauce is just like my moms from Napoli. Everything was great.
