  • I was looking for a REAL italian pizza since I moved to London. after trying many pizzas, many places and many restaurant I had lost any hope. Until I went to Mimmo La Bufala's yesterday for my friend's birthday, I am italian, so you can imagine that I KNOW everything about pizza, and I am a real fan of real pizza. Mimmo's one is definitely the very best pizza you can ever try in London. Simple real italian authentic ingredients, delicious italian recipes and chefs, pizza perfectly cooked and served. It is what I really use to call PIZZA!! I had "La reale" pizza, with mozzarella di bufala added and I cannot describe how delicious awesome, yummy and amazing it was. I tried my friend's one, with provola. DELICIOUS, simply delicious. It is the best real ITALIAN pizza that you will find in London.. It is a MUST EAT, if you are a foreigner but especially if you are an italian missing italian food. The best place to be. Thanks Mimmo.!!!!

  • Simply best Italian in London. They always cheer me up by their food and their Italian passion. Mimmo is the main character of the restaurant. He welcomes me and my boy friend. and he notices everything we need. I recommend anyone to go there without misconception about Italian food. Simply enjoy it!

  • The food is very good but beware of visiting the restaurant at lunchtimes. Although 'open' there is little in the way of service and our side dishes arrived piecemeal from halfway through to after we had finished our main course. I would not expect this at the prices they charge for the food (ie £50 per head for a full lunch with drinks)!

  • Mimmo's place is like a home for us... the most comfortable. The food is just devine and heavenly. Mimmo's ambiance is just great. The best,authentic Italian place in the city. The selection of wines is great. How do I even start praising the food, do I talk about the amazing oven baked pizza or the gnocchi or pasta, the appetizer platter with the most fresh seafood or the mozzarella on the tomatoes . I personally think it has an amazing value for money. Ive eaten at so many Italian places in Central London and the prices were sky high. The value for money is just perfect and we can eat every week EVEN with this economy. Trust me. I would always recommend the tagliolini with black truffle and parmesan cheese. This dish costs twice as much in other restaurants. I would rate it 10 outta 5.. ha ha . its always a new experience and my palate is always stimulated and I would recommend it to all my family and friends (well they already know that) but for all the people reading I urge you to please come here and have the time of your life here. Ciao Dr.Ayesha

  • This was the first place we wanted to go to after the Christmas break. As always, the welcome was warm and the food was delicious. TimeOut's reviewer points out that the seasonal specials can be more expensive than the regular dishes on the menu. It's true, but they're worth it. - yesterday's seasonal dishes included scallops, truffle tagliolini, and seafood paccheri - all delicious.

  • Always a pleasant experience, pleased to return to the restaurant under new name Mimmo la Bufala. Mimmo the owner makes the atmosphere special, the menu has changed for the better, though the pizza choice stable and of the highest quality.last dish I had there was wonderful - lasagne al tartufo ( truffle lasagne) , my friend had Sea Bass fillets with courgette crosses, also delicious. For starters we shared the pizza 'Mimmo's pizza' with bufala mozzarella and smoked mozz, fresh tomato sauce..delectable. And we treated ourselves to a really good Amarone.. For real Italian cooking, it's top of my list.

  • Exceptionally warm welcome. Great service. Personal visit to our table from Mimmo. And wonderful food. Capellini with truffles was divine. The white pizza with ricotta and truffles made my heart sing. Much more than just a neighborhood pasta pizza place.
