Colosseo Restaurant

Very welcoming, attentive staff when we visited last week. Excellent food. Definitely going back again. Lots of choice and specials on the board, and we changed our minds several times. Handy for Victoria.

Food was good, our group had pizza's and the carbonara and everyone was happy with their choice. Staff were attentive and it was not crowded in the restaurant so we were able to talk over a good meal

Enormous portions, great food and efficient, friendly service. A real gem. We'll be back! The menu has many choices and they use fresh ingredients. A pleasant surprise.

Great food and wonderful ambiance. There were four of us and we ordered very different things but the food came out so quickly during a busy lunch period. I will definitely return.

The Food is great, especially the pasta dishes. The staff were very helpful and quick to take our order. I would recommend this place as relatively cheap eat out in Victoria.

This is a great little authentic Italian place with delicious food that is not over-priced. The staff are lovely and it has a cosy atmosphere. A visit is strongly recommended!

We went for a lunch meal and the restaurant was fairly quiet and not loud and crowded like some other restaurants. We were able to enjoy our meal with privacy. Not sure whether it gets busy in the evenings. The risotto was a good healthy option and it was a large portion too. Very tasty and the prosecco was pure heaven! Would love to return. My kind of perfect restaurant!!

We met friends who we only see twice a year as they live outside the UK six months of the year and one is vegetarian so it's difficult finding a suitable restaurant that's equidistant to us both. Italian is fine. The restaurant was very quiet but the waiters were excellent. The menu is quite extensive and we chose between us- salmon, chicken in lemon sauce, veal in lemon sauce (not on the menu but they made an exception!) and a mushroom risotto for our veggie friend. They had vegetable soup which they said was good and for sweets we had three tiramisu and one cheesecake - all of which were excellent. The others had a bottle of Valpolicello and I had a glass of rose which was also very good. Shame that it's not busier as it's very good.

Lovely room. Excellent welcome. Charming italian waiters and waitresses. Excellent wine list - cheap to reasonable. Excellent pacingof delivery. Friends have said this is the best italian food in London. I cant argue. Bruce liddington

Easy to locate and such a lovely ambience. Food was lovely and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definetly recommend to others to go.

Really enjoyed the food, one of the best pizzas I've had in ages. Service was fantastic too, very accommodating and friendly. Would recommend and certainly will go again.

Flavorless food, over cooked pasta.. mushrooms clearly from a can. Wine that tasted like vinegar. Service was good - not great. Not worth the visit. We can't recommend.

THE FOOD WAS VERY GOOD PLENTY OF CHOICE EXCELLENT SERVICE NOTHING WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE EVEN WHEN WRONG ICE CREAM WAS GIVEN JUST CHANGED EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY

Excellent restaurant. The food was fresh and tasty, service was polite, friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was very congenial. I also like the fact that we could hear what we were saying without battling against loud music.

Excellent food in a quiet, friendly atmosphere. Good choice on menu; efficient service. Location very good as only a few minutes walk from Victoria station.

The service was very good, especially compared to most places. The food was also quite good. We were able to get a change in how one dish was prepared.

Nice food, decent size portions. Staff were very helpful and the restaurant had a lovely relaxing intimate atmosphere. We would definitely go back next time we are back in London.

The food, the ambiance, and the service were very good. Portions were a generous size, and the profiteroles were different and excellent. Overall very good indeed. We shall return!

the food as excellent and wine selection was great. Nice atmosphere as well. The staff were always helping each other which was very nice to see.

Authentic Italian pizza and pasta. Great food and a friendly service. Suitable for vegetarians and reasonably priced. I will definately come again and I will certainly recommend it to my friends.

Have visited this restaurant on a number of occasions and it is gradually improving after a period of poor performance. Friday lunchtime was busy but not chaotic. Service was friendly and efficient although I did have to remind staff that we had ordered a bottle of wine. My starter was an unusual combination of tuna flakes on rocket served with buffalo mozzarella and red peppers. I am not sure that it all worked with such a combination of flavours and textures. Diners should be aware that this is a large portion - I could not finish it. Main course was a beautifully prepared salmon in a herb crust served on a bed of wilted spinach. Excellent! Both my fellow diners had pasta dishes which they thought very good. A bottle of reasonably priced Gavi accompanied the meal. An enjoyable experience.

Great service from ultra friendly ultra efficient staff coupled with excellent food made for a superb evening Very highly recommended and difficult to find any room for improvement- thank you

Food was decent quality, but service was pretty poor. One of our salads didn't come with the meal and we had to ask two different waiters to bring it. It finally arrived, but way after my mom had finished her meal. We also had to ask repeatedly for other basic items, such as bread and water.

Great small home business and authentic food with wide selection of mains and desserts! Prices are reasonable and good location. A must visit if you are in victoria!

Good food, wine and service. Will go again. Pasta with prawns and zucchini very good. Too full to try dessert, so will skip starters next time!

Nice meal, not outstanding, fairly good value. Service a bit slow, especially once it had emptied out. On the whole not bad, ideal for a lunch.

Service was friendly and efficient, but the quality/authenticity of the food was less good. The risotto served to one in my party did not use the correct rice, and the sauce on the pasta looked like it was not home made.

Lovely friendly family restaurant. Good food and service at a reasonable price for somewhere in Victoria. Once again a pleasure to dine here. I will be back!

Nice restaurant, waitresses a bit too "keen" at times, clearing food before we'd finished but really can't criticise the service beyond that. A little slow getting the bill once we'd asked for it but I am being very picky. Overall a really nice experience, and the food was excellent. Toilets weren't great though.

Decent food in a comfortable setting, but a noisy ambience and slow service detracts from the experience. There's an uncertainty about the place as to its target market (Londoners or tourists, budget or premium).

Fabulous, great and fresh food. Ambience was perfect. It was nice to sit down Ina relaxed and quiet atmosphere, enjoy our meal and listen to each other without having to shout.

Excellent family run Italian with good quality authentic Italian food - Highly recommended! This is much better than the mediocre chain restaurants that surround it!

Two people at 6.30pm on a Thursday evening. Restaurant nicely busy but not over-crowded. Good meal - one chicken, one sea bass. Decent sized portions. Friendly service. Apple juice not the best.

Lovely food, although service at times wasn't too attentive. My glass was empty most of the evening without any offers for a refill. Food was good though, and extremely reasonably priced. Will return.

Arrived at six o clock on a Friday evening. The restaurant was empty. Given a nice table and made very welcome by the pleasant and helpful staff. A tasty bowl of tomato soup, which actually tasted of tomato! Followed by a decent peppered steak, accompanied by a mix of well-prepared vegetables. This was just what this particular diner needed on a chilly evening in Westminster. Good wine, not expensive. And a complimentary glass of grappa to round things off. I would certainly return. It felt genuinely Italian.

We were a party of three and enjoyed and early evening dinner. The food (we all had pasta courses with different starters) and wine were delicious. The service was excellent and the prices, given the central London location, were most reasonable. I would definitely visit again. This is hidden gem among other more brash chains of eateries and well worth a visit.

Great food, awesome puddings and friendly staff. Location is really handy near tubes and Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey. And the prices are really good. I would recommend Colosseo Restuarant

My wife and I were pleased to get a reservation on short notice. Colosseo was a fantastic experience. The staff was warm and welcoming. They were very helpful in explaining the menus to new customers. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it. The service was great. We would recommend Colosseo to anyone who wants delicious Italian cuisine served by friendly staff.

welcomed as we walked in. everyone thoroughly enjoyed there meals. The service was very polite and professional. My guests were very impressed. Pity you are such a long way from Derbyshire

Great little authentic Italian restaurant with excellent pizzas and service. Baked salmon was very tasty. Looks very small from the outside but inside is big with plenty of tables so no need to book even on a Saturday night.

Great food, good selection all reasonably price. Relaxing atmosphere with efficient and friendly staff. The bill for three was a pleasant surprise, too! Typical and genuine Italian experience. Will certainly come back being so close to Victoria

Good quality italian food - if you're looking for somewhere for authentic italian food in central london it's a good place to go. It's very good for near where I work so it's location is what sells it to me.

Excellent meal - as someone said at our table 'a taste of Italy'. The staff were friendly and efficient and the ambience was very comfortable.

There were 10 of us we all got served every course at the same time. The food was lovely and the staff were very attentive.

We didn't make it into the restaurant - the chef was outside the main entrance, smoking a cigarette which put us off completely! A very bad first impression.

Perfect for a lovely afternoon for a work lunch. The food was excellent and service was brilliant. A favourite of ours for these team lunches.

Colosseo provided two excellent salads, promptly and courteously served. The waiters were attentive without being overbearing. I have eaten at Colosseo many times and this has been my consistent experience.

Very good pizza and iced tea. Service was good, waitress very smiley. The pictures on the wall are a bit strange. Other people in the group enjoyed,

After reading some online reviews it looked as though this would be a good place to get some nice Italian food. I would have to say the food was mediocre at best. I had the Puttanesca and it was truly the worst I have ever had. Very bland. The ravioli which my friend had didn't even come to the table hot. There was no bread served with the meal, so we ordered some garlic bread ( an extra 4.95) and it was inedible. Burnt and stale. For dessert we had profiteroles which appeared to have been defrosted. Would definitely not recommend this place nor would I ever return. The waitstaff was nice which was the only highlight of the meal.

We were a party of eight. The food was excellent, the portions were substantial and the service was both friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was very pleasant and we could talk easily without too much ambient noise. I'm sure we will return.
