I just moved to Hendon. On my first weekend I was passing by this place and someone was coming out and the smell of fresh espresso coffee made me enter and ask for a coffee. I was delighted by the warm reception by the fellows there, an uncle and his nephew I believe. I asked for the menu and promised to come back to try their food. And today, on my second weekend in Hendon, I did. And oh boy, this was a delightful meal! Such charming and welcoming people! Me and my 3 mates, we started with cocktails and I had a Pina colada 🍹and ok, can we talk about THE FOOD ❤️ Me and my 3 companions, we all got different dishes, and mine was this absolutely gorgeous Linguini Frutti Di Mare seen in my attached pic. Oh my goodness, it was divine! What a wonderful find! I recommend this place for it's lovely and charming welcoming reception by it's owners and I absolutely recommend it's food for food lovers (the portions were very generous). Finally, please have their espresso. Just 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻❤️
I returned to try another dish. This time I asked for another pasta, the famous Spaghetti Carbonara. And oh gosh, it was delicious! 🤤 The staff was - as expected - impeccable and the service was flawless. I also tried the squid starter and garlic bread (they brought some sauces with it and it was so tasty!). Next time I will take a picture. 5 stars guys!...

He suggested that we order a pizza so we selected the Americano pizza which was probably the best pizza I have ever eaten - it was slightly spicy and the crust was so fresh and delicious. One pizza was plenty for us to split. Music was playing, starting with 1980s love songs (which I adore) and then morphing into traditional Italian music which was also perfect. We ordered Aperol spritz (delicious!) and a glass of Merlot (dry and silky - I loved it). The bill was surprisingly small which I always appreciate. I am in London for a week and I plan on returning to this restaurant again...
Read moreExcellent place for a drop by. Friendly, coffee excellent, environment good, food good. I am, however, being a bit brutal with the star count. The quality of the food is excellent, but if you want an early breakfast, doesn't start til ten, though coffee etc starts much earlier. This may have changed since I was last there, but once the kitchen gets going no complaints. Average prices, but worth the cost for the atmosphere and of course the quality. Parking can be a bit stressful, as it is within the Barnet Revenue Enhancement Zone (CPZ), but keep trying-...
