   We went to the restaurant for the bottomless prosecco lunch-birthday lunch for 8 people, our first visit to the restaurant Mixed feelings as it was good value from money but a few things let down the overall experience. I booked the table for 230pm several weeks before following a discussion over the phone. I was told the kitchen closed at 430pm-therefore 230pm seemed adequate. When we arrived we were told the kitchen closed as 330pm and that we had to order quickly. -I informed them this was not what I was told on the phone as I would have made an earlier booking. It did not end up being an issue, we did not feel rushed but it got the meal off to a bad start. Although it is unlimited pasta you only order 1 dish at a time, once that arrives you can order another.... this didn't end up being an issue but we anticipated it would be due to the early kitchen closing time. My second issue was that one member of our party doesn't drink and was vegetarian. She booked on last minute on the day. We asked if she could order from the normal menu but that wasn't allowed apparently as she may end up drinking some of our prosecco! It made me feel like I was back in school! It may be helpful to use your discretion, or have a non alcoholic price. I'm afraid we really didn't warm to the male waiter or female manager- they were unfriendly and unwelcoming, however our female waitress was lovely. Prosecco glasses filled regularly but only half full which was a bit annoying when you are there for a bottomless brunch. We felt we did have enough but please just fill up the glasses! If will save you coming over to the table so frequently. We ordered a variety of starters which were delicious, tasted very fresh. Main pasta dishes very good although some members of our group found the pasta too al dente. Plenty of food and drink served we all were full. It was very nice to be able to order a variety of dishes. The setting and table were very nice and the restaurant was very clean.

   Starters a bit varying, but as for the main courses, all pasta dishes were great! Really good ambience and friendly service.

   Quiet Monday night, but we had a lovely Italian feast. Great service and the food was excellent in the context of the style of restaurant and it was a Monday night. Ps take your own wine for corkage. We did. Amazing.

   Delicious pasta dishes, but slightly small portions so order a starter or side.

    We were looking last minute for a pre-theatre dinner and decided to return to Officina Fitzrovia, as we had really enjoyed it in the summer. We loved it again! The food is authentic Italian made to order by the chefs in the open kitchen and is delicious. The staff are very friendly and the service was excellent. Only 10 mins by tube from theatre-land. I’m keeping this on my list ❤️
