Andpasta in City of London

Great small cafe serving hungry city workers with homemade Italian cooking. Had a lovely tomato pasta with a good chunk of mozzarella on top, convivial atmosphere and lovely owner. Gets really busy but stick around for a bit and you'll find a seat!

Tomato & mozzarella pasta was absolutely delicious. Never had such good tasting pasta previously. Thank you!! Highly recommended.

I went to Piada in to try and find a Piadina (Piada for short), and even though the google overview says they sell them, they don't and haven't done for 12 years (according to Renato the owner).Having said that, as i was already there I ordered the Caprese salad, and it was delicious! Generous helping of Parma Ham and Cheese and the vinegar really pumped up the flavour!If you're Italian (like my colleague who was with me) the Renato will spend a good amount of time chatting to you!

Be careful if you get piada via mealpal. They provide a cheaped out version with loads of pasta , but no sauce. You feel like you are eating just boiled pasta.

Wonderful food, lovely owner and great coffee. They normally have 2 authentic ilaian dishes being cooked on 2 stoves in front of you by two teams of chefs. Can't recommend it highly enough. Always a vege option and normally a meaty option.

Had lunch at Piada as part of Mealpal and it was very good. I usually don't have Italian for lunch but this has definitely convinced me to do so. The food was good and the portion size is acceptable. It's very close to my offices and the I really enjoyed the Italian atmosphere at the restaurant. One downside was that sauce was very strong and I wouldn't mind a bit less sauce on mine, that's a personal preference though.

I visited January 2018, very impressed actually. Yeah, the place is not fancy-fancy like many take away places BUT it's clean, wholesome, honest, proper food. The tomato sauce was not out of a can, the cheese is real the fillings are robust, the chocolate brownies are top drawer. Tasty, tasty food and they should be COMMENDED for putting good fooding in front of posh marketing. New favourite.

Probably the best authentic italian food in London. Fresh ingredients. Cooked by Italians who actually know how to cook. Very popular with italians working in City. Expensive, but that reflects the fact that they are clearly going out of their way to get the finest food. Guy who runs the place is a legend !

Best Pasta within a square mile. +Real Italians, +cheap sit down lunch, -expensive takeaway, +quaint location, +friendly owner, +good portion size, +great food. +Highly highly recommend.

Very good and cozy Italian deli for eat-in or take away in the heart of London City. The menu offers 4to 5 choices of pasta and piadina, with changes in the menu on a weekly basis. Despite the average queue, service is generally kind and efficient once you approach the counter. Respecting the Italian tradition, portions are abundant and ingredients are genuine from the Belpaese.
