Good for special occasions

We are a family run restaurant in Kennington, serving honest, tasty Italian food made using Italian seasonal ingredients alongside selected local Italian wines and beers. We offer two menus, a fixed Brasserie style with classic Italian favourites, suitable for lunch and supper dining experiences, alongside a 'Riverside Specials Menu' a bi-weekly changing menu taking advantage of seasonal British & Italian ingredients, special meats and fish. A number of home-made desserts and cakes are available daily. We are in very close proximity to The Imperial War Museum and The Old Vic Theatre, and located opposite Lambeth North underground station. Riverside 2 is the perfect location to enjoy either a family meal, pre or post theatre suppers or a friendly, relaxed environment to enjoy a dinner with friends.

My guest and I turned up at the date and time which I had booked through OpenTable but the RESTAURANT WAS CLOSED: an embarrassing experience which undermines confidence in both the restaurant and OpenTable. How can that happen?

The place is closed down! It was a disaster for us as we had to eat quickly to get to the Hockney exhibition. You need to take this listing down immediately.

Service was excellent and food was very tasty but portion sizes were a bit on the small side, e.g. roast potatoes was one large potato quartered length ways but you only got three of the quarters. Who ate my other quarter? Prices were more expensive that the menu e.g. Sea bass here is £13.50 but was £21.50 when we got seated and given the menu so value was not what we expected. Nice evening, cosy setting and handy for Southbank but hit my wallet more than I expected based on what is listed here. 3/5.

My nephew and I had lunch here before a walk on the Thames Path. It's a casual, friendly, popular restaurant with really lovely staff and good service. Quiet enough to have a conversation, bright, and very pleasant atmosphere. Would certainly come here again.

Great spot for those looking for a variety of Italian food. The staff was extreamly welcoming upon arrival and very friendly throughout. I found some items a little over priced. I got the special Ravioli for close to 16GBP and for the cost I was expecting a bit more. It was still extreamly delicious though. Would highly recommended for anyone looking for a quieter spot a little off the main streets.

Very disapppointed as we booked based on all the positive reviews. We had undercooked pasta with little sauce to justify high prices (higher than on website). The owner was there but only spoke to Italian clients even though we were one of 3 tables taken. We weren't asked about how the meal was and no comment made when we sent back full dishes.
