Hidden gem. Perfect place to disconnect from the noisy and stressful London life, enjoying delicious food prepared with delicacy. Francesco is a great guy and a better chef, always attentive and professional. My partner and I always order the spaghetti with avocato, anchovies cream and kalamata olives. I am pretty sure all dishes are divine, but we are just obsessed with that one. Tiramisú is also heavenly
