    The food was very good with adequate sized portions. Service was good despite the restaurant being busy. The only negative is that the tables are very close together.

    Delicious authentic food in a homely local Italian restaurant! Our meal was fresh and hot, cooked perfectly. Not a big place, so I recommend booking - there was a queue of people waiting for tables when we left. There are outside tables which are used in the better weather. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. I think they are the owners and family. Excellent place for a casual Italian meal!

    What can I say, this is by far our favourite Italian restaurant in London. Antonio and his team is very friendly and the service is always top, putting some other restaurants to shame. This is equally matched by the excellent food especially the lobster and prawn spaghetti, the seafood spaghetti and much more. Thanks Mangia Bene again and see you soon

    We have been to the restaurant a few times and it never fails to deliver. There were 8 of us meeting up for our Christmas meal. Food and service were superb. We will return.
