Cosy little restaurant that anyone that loves Italian food simply has to go and book a table. It's my go-to place in central London.

We were the only people in the restaurant when we arrived at 7:30 but a few more tables were taken over the next hour. Food was lovely but we only had a main course. Lovely local family place...would go again.

Every time we visit London we eat at Da Paolo’s. The food is amazing, portions large, service great and we don’t think it is expensive. We are already looking forward to eating there again next time we are down from Scotland.

Lovely staff, and delicious food! More choice for vegetarians would make it a firm favourite... Noisy and squashed up, but that's perhaps part of the charm.

The food was value for money. The portions were huge. The staff were nice and friendly. A small minus point was that the space of the restaurant is small and tables were placed very close to each other thus not much ambiance for people who want privacy. But if it is good food you are after this is the place!

It is a lovely place, nice decoration and cozy atmosphere. However, an annoying selection of tacky italian music was playing loudly in the background. Since the restaurant was packed (Valentine's), the overall noise was really uncomfortanble. Food is OK, but prices seem to be high for that cuisine level.

A wonderful, authentic Italian restaurant serving good food and plenty of it at very reasonable, competitive prices. The goat's cheese salad was huge and their tagliatelle Bolognese might be simple but it's excellent and hits the spot every time. A hidden gem buried among loads of chain restaurants in Fitzrovia.

Our favourite LONDON restaurant, been coming here for years & have never been disappointed. Amazing food, uniquely brilliant service & a wonderful atmosphere. Everything a proper Italian restaurant should be - feels like a home from home, wonderful ingredients lovingly prepared. Love it & love that over the last three years the ‘specials board’ remains unchanged! The wild boar & squid remain a constant! Big love to all of the kitchen staff & the front of house team x
