Good quality food, great pizza Neapolitan style Great pastiera typical Neapolitan desert with ricotta and wheat grains Overall a great experience, try to avoid Saturday night as very busy
Just as amazing as the first time I ate there. I will go back definitely to try the meat and fish dishes, but as for the starters, pizzas and pastas it's really top of the class!
Good food and selection of wine. However we waited a long time for our main course, only to be told that our choice wasn't available.
Lovely restaurant, great service. I was a little disappointed with my food as found it a big bland. Very strange as usually Italian food is full of flavour. My friend really enjoyed her food so maybe it was just my dish.
One of the Worst Italian meals I have ever had. The carbonara was horrible. Tasted more like uncooked pasta full of salt and fatty bacon. Service was very slow
Fabulous we love this restaurant. We've been coming here for family birthdays for years and it never disappoints. The food and atmosphere are lovely and the waiting staff full of character and friendliness
I chose this for a catch up meal with a family friend, his son and wife my boyfriend. Great time was had my all. The pizza is just delicious! Lots of choice on the menu, had the calamari to start which was lush. Booking essential even on a weds night as it gets packed out. Would definitely go again!
Very good!!! Lo consiglio, ottima cucina italiana vera!!! La pizza era buonissima con ingredienti di qualità, i prezzi accessibili. Personale cortese. Se capiteremo da quelle parti ci torneremo senza dubbio!
Wonderful food and wonderful atmosphere. The Staff were very friendly and attentive, plus the manager came round to ensure everyone was having a good time.
Great food, good atmosphere! A lot of choice and prices are not very expensive. It was mothers day and there was a mini bingo which was fun for the 10mn it lasted!
best calamari ever.Will be going back just for that.Waiter recommended wine which went well with our meal .Will be returning whenever I'm next in Clapham.
Lovely restaurant in Battersea opposite to the Art Centre, friendly and funny staff, authentic Italian food, had a wonderful dinner there last week, will definitely go back soon with some more friends, highly recommended!
Nice restaurant providing an authentic Italian experience. The pizza and the parmigiana were really good. Great selection of the best white and red wines from Italy
One of the best italian pizzeria/restaurant in London! Food and staff are delicious and you can feel the original mediterranean shine comes from Naples. Great for couples and friends! Can't wait to return!
Went there to celebrate Mums birthday. Amazing authentic italian food, and superb service at not too unreasonable prices. Highly recommended. Still one of the best Italian Restaurants in London
Due to the slow service & bad foods, my guest & I had to send our Meals back due to uncooked shellfish & uncooked pastes. Also it did not help we had a large party in that evening
The food is the best I have had in London, so far. Homemade pasta and wood-burning oven for the pizza and the seafood is very well sourced and prepared. They offer a wide selection wine, by region, and the bottle we had was silky smooth and delicious. He staff are very pleasant and engaging. Only minor negative is that the table and chairs were a bit IKEAish and the music was a bit too intrusive (loud). But the decor was very attractive and well done. I particularly liked the portrait of Sophia Loren. All in all a great Valentine's Day experience and will definitely go again.
Awesome Italian restaurant. Lovely ambience and friendly staff. Very authentic. The food was great and we had a lovely Italian wine to go with it as recommended by the waiter. Will be going back. Thank you!
Meet up with a friend on Friday night at Donna Margherita. Great food, great wine ( in lovely glasses!) and despite being very busy the service was good, fast and friendly. We will be back.
Group of 5 we had a nice dinner.very friendly staff and good service.we used our taste card for by 1 get one meal free so good value
I've been previously and had a great time - food, staff and atmosphere excellent. But this time was very poor indeed. We were not given menus as we sat down, these were provided 10 mins later. Food was below average - my carbonara's pasta was below al dente, and they brought out the wrong dessert. Waiting staff were more interested in the football than serving tables. I'd go back as part of a group booking as the food was previously excellent, but would not recommend it for a party if 2.
Amazing food, staff were amazing very helpful and friendly. Will be back again soon. Pizza are the best we've had outside Naples and the wine selection was fantastic.
The pizza at Donna Margherita was good although the service was a bit slow. The restaurant was busy but not completely full so it could have been quicker. We shared 3 different pizzas and we enjoyed them all. The Diavolo could have had a bit more meat for me. A good local pizza place and not too pricey.
Great authentic food - had Italians dining next to us so always a good sign! Attentive staff, extensive wine list and a great local italian lager that wasn't Peroni made for a lovely evening.
This was our second time at the restaurant and we were so impressed the first time round that we were worried our second visit would not meet up to our now very high expectations. Luckily, the second time was somehow even better than the first. The food is exceptional, as is the service. When you walk through the door, it feels as though you have been transported to Italy. We would highly recommend this restaurant and will be returning ourselves on many occasions to come.
Vice nice restaurant, friendly service with a great welcome, very good quality And a fantastic wine list, and would certainly return again when in the area,
Amazing food, wonderful atmosphere, affordable prices! What more can you wish for? Definitely going back soon!
Lovely food and great wine. Beef was tender and soft though could have been rarer. Some things were off the menu which was a shame ( the pork and all the fish) but still enjoyed what I had.
Great atmosphere and nice decor. Good service but the food was mixed. Good location close to bars and less than 10 mins walk from Clapham junction.
The food was great, the waiters were quick and polite - you can't really ask for more in a restaurant, would definitely eat there again
Food & Service good. Main restaurant very noisy when busy - better on the terrace. Tables too close together for privacy. Wine too expensive - has a 4 x markup instead of the usual 3 x
Excellent atmosphere and food. Attentive waiters but towards end of visit the air conditioning was turned on and our table felt very draughty. Other than that a very good night out.
Very pleasant lunch in quiet surroundings. Good selection on the menu for starts, pastas, pizzas and mains. Nice desserts and most important not hurried. Recommended!
Absolutely delightful meal served by lovely staff. My mum and I came for a pre-theatre dinner before a play at BAC opposite; I had the papperdelle with mushrooms (gorgeous mixture of delicate flavours) and she had a napolitana pizza - plenty of capers and fresh-looking sauce on fresh, obviously hand-stretched, paper-thin bread. The staff hit exactly the right balance of friendly/attentive and letting us get on with our meal; when we chose caffe correttos for after they gave great advice without being patronising. And all very reasonably priced for the area. I don't find myself in this neck of the woods often, but if I'm back I'd certainly head here.
Excellent experience. Great service,food and in a charming and vibrant environment. Pizza was amazing had the starter of the meatballs in a tomato sauce and that was to die for. Will visit again.
Excellent service, beautiful italian food. Loved it. I highly recommend it.
Authentic and very good food, very good wine list and helpful service. There were two separate table of Italians near us - and that is always a good test.
Professional and friendly staff, food was well presented and tasty the restaurant and toilets looked very clean. I loved the fire place and I will go back again for sure
Second visit took four friends raved s out the place and hoped I wasn't let down, and I wasn't, the food was still as extraordinarily excellent as it was on my first visit! Strongly recommend this restaurant!
We had a pleasant welcome by staff, great service, brilliant atmosphere, food vey tasty, quite buzzling for a Thursday night, if was the first time my colleagues visited this place (5 of them) and they were all impressed and pleased with my selection of restaurant. Definitely a place not to be missed
Really good meal, served really quickly and made it a special occasion for my birthday! Thank you!
Very good and professional service, good starters and main dishes, I expected better desserts (if it was warmer it was perfect). Prices and position ok.
I Was at Donna Margherita for dinner because I wanted to enjoy The taste of my home place and I was really satisfied with The service as well as with The food. The portions are quite good although I found the starters a bit expensive. I loved the gnocchi and I will definitely come back!
Good food and excellent service, in a good buzzy atmosphere. The restaurant is however considerably more than "a few feet from Clapham Junction station" - it's a good 10 minute walk away.
This is my favourite restaurant in Clapham. The food is always excellent, staff are attentive. I particularly love the pizzas here - I has the four seasons and it was really delicious. I highly recommend.
Celebrated my son's 2nd birthday for lunch. Staff were very welcoming, accommodating and friendly. My son had a blast! Food was great, they bake their own bread and the pizza is authentic Italian! Wine list is very long, and so is the menu. Plenty of choice there. They also serve colorful alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails. I would go back for any other occasion and would definitely recommend.
Great dinner as usual! everything absolutely delicious. I recommend to all my friends, Italian and not. Best quality, decent price! The only issue is the portions of the starters: too small :)
Very Friendly staff and food's quality was ok. It was not excellent but ok!
The restaurant itself was nice, pleasant music, staff was very attentive but food was a big disappointment. I ordered chicken escalope which looked like it was two or three days old. It was very hard to cut and chew. Also the salad was not fresh at all. The sauteed potatoes were on the other hand very nice and tasteful. Surely I will not come to this restaurant again.
Wondeful food. And the staff made it so enjoyable, especially for my 4 year old. He said "this is the funniest restraurant in the world!"
