This is a great little Italian deli that has a great range of home cooked food to eat in or takeaway. The pastas, pizzas and lasagna are are really tasty and great value

A great local and casual place that is halfway between a takeaway shop(a ‘tavola calda’ in Italian) and a deli with lots of Italian products on the shelves for sale. The place has a sister restaurant further down along Fulham Road that serves both pizza and pasta dishes in a larger but also casual dining setting. This place has lots of ready made pastas and aranicini ready for take away or eat in(there are about 6 or 7 tables in front of the counter). No lumpy, dried out pasta here though. The lasagna or gnocchi dishes are just as good as homemade ones and they are happy to give generous portions. What I love most about the place is everyone in there is clearly a regular. Everyone is gossiping in Italian and having a chat or a rumble about their day. It really does feel like a local place in southern Italy. The deli also organises ‘aperitivo’ evenings(alcoholic drinks like Campari Soda or Aperol Spritz with finger food) every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 7.30pm.

I loved this place. We came royally late to our reservation and they had given away our table(justified as we were 45 minutes late on a Friday eve and hadn’t called.) They hustled to get us a table and made a small cheese pizza(for free) for the kid that was a part of our party. They rolled out a delicious antipasti spread including this awesome potato dish from the Southern Puglia region. Loved our Chianti and I had a pizza that was really good. The owner was lovely – had some lemoncello with us to end the night. They are new – have a deli that has been known in the neighborhood from some time and fess up to trying to get the kinks out. The place was buzzing already(with loads of Italians) and even a Made in Cheslea cast member. So the word is out!
