This is one restaurant to avoid!! The atmosphere instantly felt uncomfortable as you were greeted by a sullen faced woman and a shifty looking man. Before I even sat down, the woman asked me if I wanted to order from the specials and when I said I’d like to order pasta from their regular menu, walked off abruptly and looked annoyed I didn’t want to order a more expensive special. Shortly after I ordered, the man asked me to move to another table so they could combine my table for the bigger booking later which I didn’t mind but thought was odd. On top of that, I felt pressured to leave quickly as they tried to get me to pay before I finished my meal. I asked them twice if they could let me finish first as that sort of behavior is very off putting. Even though they greeted customers from larger parties with more enthusiasm, it still reeked of insincerity and greed. It seems they’re one way with a certain clientele and another way with the rest of us, I’ll let you fill in the blanks here. Can’t believe I paid the 12.5% service charge for that appalling service.
The restaurant though clean, was dark, cold and uninviting. The food was half decent but nothing special - al dente pasta with very scarce toppings and very expensive for what it’s worth. I wish they also told me when I asked for sparkling water that it would come in a big 750ml bottle. Had I known, I would not have ordered it.
This is by far the worst service I’ve experienced in London, and for the average food, uncomfortable atmosphere and above average prices, don’t waste your time...
Read moreAglio E Olio in Fulham offers a warm, authentic Italian dining experience that is both affordable and accommodating. Its no-frills charm is complemented by an array of excellent pasta options, many of which cater perfectly to vegetarians.
The willingness to customize dishes for dietary needs is a standout feature of this cosy restaurant. Run by two friendly brothers, the welcoming atmosphere is as comforting as their food.

Read moreOverpriced average to good food with mediocre service. The location is good and the mood of the place is nice and relaxed. Unfortunately, the food in general was not amazing (not bad either), for a £20+ dish we got an overcooked pasta with an OK sauce that had a meagre amount of crab and the desserts came slightly cold and badly presented. Not deal breakers, but not worth the money in my opinion. Wine was good and reasonably priced. Service was a bit inattentive with the food arriving at very different times, but they were kind. I know its hard to stand out with Italian food, but I find you can have a better experience for the same price at the many other Italian...
