Saporitalia in Kensington and Chelsea

Incredible food, fabulous service! A lovely authentic Italian. I’d return & recommend to anyone. Thank you!

Always have lunch at Saporitalia but last time the meatballs were so bad, tasting like frozen for ages. The service always good. The waitress always nice and polite.

Very charming little Italian on Portobello road with friendly staff, a jolly vibe, and excellent pasta. Pro tip: ask for the specials of the day, they tend to be.. well, special. We had the portobello mushroom pasta and the lobster pasta, both delicious.- The portobello mushroom pasta: very buttery and flavorful, those mushrooms are so delicate but at the same time satisfying. I don’t know what went into the seasoning and the sauce but it all works.- The Lobster pasta: Saporitalia went for the big guns here. I suddenly see in front of me a giant lobster on a plate, with some pasta underneath. The pasta was good, but the lobster was definitely the star of the show. The meat was fresh and juicy, and combined really well with the rest of the dish. Some of the best lobster I’ve had in London.

One of the best places to eat in and around portobello! Some of the best authentic Italian food, absolutely delicious and great quality. The service was super quick too. The staff are so lovely and helpful, every single one. You can’t fault this restaurant at all !! Thank you so much for lovely food and great service. This place is worth every dime 💗

Absolutely fantastic....l was attending a friend's birthday. The service and food was high quality, a real sense of feeling welcomed. I can't fault it, such an amazing evening, good food, drinks and a fabulous atmosphere. I couldn't help noticed a bit of wonderland theme! Thank you.

I have to say, we have concluded that this is the best meal in an Italian restaurant that we have had in London/outside of Italy. Our food was absolutely outstanding, so full of flavour and very clearly full of high-quality ingredients, including the most beautiful, fresh seafood. I was blown away by the seafood, actually! I usually struggle to find restaurants that ensure good quality and fresh seafood but Saporitalia pulled out all the stops. We loved our dishes - baked aubergine and mussel soup for starter, then the truffle pasta and seafood linguini. So rich in flavour, we were genuinely so impressed and enjoyed every last morsel! The staff were lovely and the service was so friendly with an atmosphere that is warm and welcoming, and there was a lovely feel about the wooden interior. Absolutely will be back!

Fast service, good pastas and pizzas (stone backed), very easygoing environment. It is quite rustic inside but the outdoor is actually very charming with real flowers pending from the ceiling and coloured lights. Recommended.

Great service and nice food. I was disappointed to learn that service charge does not go to the staff so next time I will make sure I have cash to give the wait staff a tip.

Ordered a pizza and a torte al limone from this place. The tart came infested with mold and smelled bad. We were absolutely disgusted with the food, and couldn't trust the accompanying pizza that came with it. Did not expect to be served rotten food from a restaurant like this. We are absolutely disgusted and disappointed. What a waste of money...

Homely, family feeling with the added bonus that the food was absolutely amazing. Will be coming back! I noticed one of the other reviews mentioned that the service was slow. Maybe they hadn't taken into account that everything was homemade and wasn't taken out of a freezer and popped in a microwave behind the scenes! They make everything from scratch which is why you have to wait a little bit and this is why the food is so delicious! If you appreciate real Italian food with authentic flavour them look no further than Saporitalia! Thankyou very much. Our waiter looked like Dustin Hoffman and was a dude too. It's a shame I can't remember his name! But thanks anyway for everything.
