Average Italian food. Maybe it's better to have vegeterian or meat options than fish, which was not the best. Homemade pasta is delicious. Atmoshere is vintage italian, manager really nice and friendly and place cosy. Good experience overall.

Friendly greeting from the proprietor on arrival. Pleasing to have a full range of gluten free choices. Well-priced drinks and the food was great. Only downside was the service was a little bit flakey.

Amazing gluten free restaurant. Very family oriented and understands what it’s like to be gluten intolerant. The food was amazingly fresh. Try and book in advanced just in case they are busy. Can’t wait to come back to London again and visit

We were well looked after. In particular the owner was very sympathetic to Gluten Free requirements and made my daughter feel positive about her dietary needs. Most of the menu was available with home made gluten free flour products rather than an afterthought. My daughter had a delicious gluten free lasagne. Would definitely recommend as an authentic Italian restaurant with proper Gluten free options.

Seriously amazing food, the best gluten free food ever. The tirimasu is to die for and the ravioli was just so melty. The owner and the daughter were so lovely and looked after us really well.

Broad menu with most Italian staples. Service was good. Quality of the food was very good with portion size on the larger side. Chef even prepared a mixed sald which was not on the menu. Very reasonably priced considering it is 10 minutes walk from London eye.

Decent food, nothing out of ordinary. Service was ok. When we declined wine, they ended up charging us for water. I would only go back if there wasn't any other option.

The food was incredibly tasty and the staff were really friendly. We were eating before a trip to the cinema, and so were on a tight schedule, the service was quick and unrushed.

The restaurant was very busy so we were glad we had reserved a table for 5. This was in a good spot and laid out so no one felt left out. We all enjoyed the food. The service was friendly. The meals were a little slow in coming but we enjoyed each other's company and the overall happy, if slightly noisy, surroundings.

Premium for gluten free. Full adult price for a 7 year old. They tried to talk a child out of her choice, queried why she was having a hot chocolate, they initially forgot one drink and got muddled with anor with waitress saying 'I don't speak English' £80+ for milk, 1 beer, 2 x diet cokes, 1 coffee, 1 hot choc, 1 starter, 3 mains and 2 desserts incg £6.50 for a slice of cheesecake that looked a small slice of a cheap shop frozen shop bought one. I asked for a straw for the milk and was directed to the toilet. Later told to leave table as they had anor booking, unwelcoming

Food was delicious and very reasonable, slightly disappointing that you have to pay extra for bread and all deserts are the same price so some seem great value whereas others seem a little expensive. Almost everything can be served gluten free which is amazing however you so have to pay a couple of pounds extra. I had gluten free pasta with homemade sausage, would recommend! Ee also shared a bottle of prosecco which was very nice and also great value. Service was quick and very friendly. Would definitely recommend for a seemingly authentic Italian restaurant and meal.

I booked this based on reviews, for a meal for 10 before the London marathon. I was very disappointed. Service was very haphazard, nine of our meals were nearly finished before the 10th meal was served and the staff weren't bothered and did not apologise.

Brilliant!! The food was excellent as was the service. One of our group has celiac disease it was a real treat for him to have options from the whole menu including gluten free pizzas and pasta dishes. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Cotto has a good atmosphere. I was glad we had booked as the restaurant soon filled up.

We arrive at 6 pm for dinner. We did not receive our main course until 7:10, noting others seated after us were served before us. The pasta dishes were fine but it did cause us to rush our meal to catch an 8 pm show.
