Harden's says
A new (March 2022) Italian from Louis Korovilas, formerly of Locatelli and Bancone, which serves a short, seasonal menu of pastas and a modern take on Italian street food snacks.
Harden's survey result
Summary
This quartet of modern pasta joints offer “high-quality ingredients” and staff who “make you feel very welcome”. But the cooking divides opinion sharply, with some reporters praising “good, unpretentious” cooking “at a fair price” and others complaining of “tiny, overpriced helpings – avoid!”. A more nuanced judgement: “good but could be so much better – menu had some great options but everything seemed overpowered with butter/oil”.
Summary
“A welcome recent addition to Islington” – this March 2022 newcomer from Louis Korovilas serves a short, seasonal menu of pastas and a modern take on Italian street-food snacks. But while “it’s a handy neighbourhood option for fresh pasta”, the overall verdict is that “it doesn’t quite compare to the likes of Padella or Bancone” (Korovilas used to work at the latter).
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
