Restaurants

The food is really good, BUT we stopped going to this restaurant because of the awful service. Shame. We are locals and the restaurant is 10 min walk away, but we've not been there for about a year now, we cannot bare to be served by one of the most incompetent and miserable weitresses in town.

I have eaten at this restaurant several times over many years. I have always found the food excellent - and the service equally awful. Always. Last night one of our table was served her meal fifteen minutes after ours, despite it being a very quiet night and the dish being a fast-cooking salmon.
The final straw came when the waitress didn't bother to bring our change after we paid. It is usual practice to bring customers their change so that they can choose to leave a tip, isn't it? After 45 minutes we had to go and ask for our change.
I really can't face eating at this restaurant again unless they get some proper waiting staff.

We have eaten here many times and keep going back. We have never had a bad experience. Pasta dishes are partiullarly lovely, but the other mains have always stood up really well as well. We have had lovely fish, game and meat dishes in the past few months.
Definately worth trying the Sardinian specialities - the "sebadas" are my favourite dessert. Also some lovely Sardinian reds on the list - worth asking the Sardinian proprietess for recommendations (we have always found her to be very friendly in contrast to some comments here though service can sometimes be a little slow). Also ask her to tell you about the musical stone sculptures - v cool. It may not be the cheapest food around but I have paid as much or more for a lot worse in London.

Menu sounded good but in reality food was overpriced for the quality. My friend had the grey mullet which was so overcooked it would have bounced off the wall. Mine and my husbands pizza were tasteless, mine burnt and the base so crisp you couldn't cut thru it and as for the expensive ribeye steak, asked for rare got well done. Everything was too salty. We were given too many excuses for the food that the rib eye was veal and thats why it looked over done and the grey mullet doesn't do well over in the uk but sardinians love it!!! Thanks for telling us. The only reason it redeemed itself was they gave us the awful fish for free!!! But even so I begrudged the £100 it cost us. Would NEVER eat here again.

I was very disappointed with the restaurant, since my housemate has been here a couple of times and liked it. The service was appalling - when we arrived, the waitress just stared at us from behind the bar, so we seated ourselves. Throughout the evening, I kid you not, we didn't get one smile out of her. Not one.
Despite being one of only two groups of diners at the restaurant, it was nearly 40 minutes from arrival to receiving our starter. The 'garlic' bread: no noticeable garlic, but lots of salt. The mushroom ravioli special: so soggy it fell apart, with the salt levels again so high I though I would have a heart attack. The lamb and the pork chop mains were good but I'm still not sure I can forgive a mediterranean restaurant which serves such dried-out olives.
Also rather shocked at paying £80 for three people to eat two courses, with no alcohol, in Kentish Town.
