The 22 Best Date Night Restaurants In London (Right Now)

"Darling's Eatery And Studio, a Hackney Wick pasta restaurant, is a place for seductively twirling a noodle on your fork as your date admires you in the golden hour glow. Come in the evening, when the candles are lit and the space fills with noise and laughter. There are two big wooden sharing tables, but we prefer the small circular tables off to the side for intimate dates when we don’t want to be overheard. The pasta looks like the bowls you’d see on Instagram, and it's tasty, photogenic stuff." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley

Darling's Eatery and Studio - Review - Hackney Wick - London - The Infatuation

"Darling's Eatery and Studio, a Hackney Wick pasta restaurant, is a place for seductively twirling a noodle on your fork as your date admires you in the golden hour glow. Come in the evening, when the candles are lit, large groups arrive, the space fills with noise and laughter, and everyone relaxes. Otherwise, during the daytime, the minimalist room can feel a little sterile. There are two big wooden sharing tables, and a few small circular tables off to the side that we prefer for quick, casual meals, or dates when we don’t want to be overheard. The pasta looks like the bowls you’d see on Instagram, eaten by influencers who are partial to Saie skin tints and gingham linen—and it's tasty stuff. Just don't expect hearty portions and wholesome sauces. Instead, light, delicate flavours—caramelised onion, white beans, sundried tomato—and very small slivers of focaccia are dispatched to photoshoot-ready tables. photo credit: Martyna Wlodarska" - Sinéad Cranna

Darling’s Eatery is a heartfelt testament to the joy of food and the art of hospitality. The space itself is intimate and inviting, effortlessly atmospheric whether you visit during the sunlit hours or in the evening lights. What sets Darling’s apart is its ability to foster connection—whether through learning the craft of pasta-making alongside strangers, enjoying laid-back dinners with friends, or sharing beautifully curated plates and wine. We’ve even had the pleasure of serving Darling’s exquisite pasta at private events, where it consistently impresses. The food is deliciously simple, yet refined, with a focus on elegance that allows the ingredients to shine. Beyond the culinary excellence, dining at Darling’s is about supporting a passionate, self-made business. It’s inspiring to witness the vision and talent of this brilliant chef, and we can’t wait to see where their journey leads.

Such a delightful dinner and experience! Our fave dishes were the honey butter and truffle burrata, the roasted tomato pasta, and anchovy pasta. The tiramisu was incredible as well! The decor of the place is so cute too, even the bathroom! It’s such a hidden gem (literally) and delighted to find out it’s a female owned business. Our waitress was so lovely and helpful too. Can’t wait to come back again.

A perfect little gem of a restaurant. The owner is a gracious host and has created a beautiful & charming space. The pasta is delicious and well crafted- the saffron tagliorini was a particular favourite. I loved the starters too- ricotta gnudi and the artichoke fritti. Their take on the tiramisu is the perfect end to diner. I highly recommend a visit.

What a lovely spot ✨ While it is a destination eatery, it really is a rewarding find as you are welcomed into a beautiful, cosy atmosphere. The menu was explained well, along with portion sizes so we could navigate what to order. We ordered all of the starters (between 4ppl) and they were all fantastic! The honey burrata, hazelnut pumpkin and meatballs were my favourite 👌🏼 The pasta mains were all really great - and just the right size to make sure we had space for the tiramisu - this is lovely, not too sweet - a perfect end to the evening. The owner, and all of the team were really attentive and helpful throughout. We also enjoyed learning about some of the produce and how, where possible, a lot of it is from female business owners around the world. In a world of copy and paste, it was super refreshing to be here and enjoy what is clearly, a passion project! Well done - I would recommend Darlings and i’ll be back in the future, for sure ☺️

As somebody who eats a plant based diet and was so happy and impressed by the way the team was able to accomodate my diatary restrictions - they check with the chef and told me what was already plant based or they were able to prepare in a way to suit my diet. The food was delicious and drinks as well, the ambient beautiful and the service was kind, attentive. The experience was really nice and I'll make sure to be back the next time I'm in London.

Fantastic value for money with Valentines set at £38pp. Starters and cocktails were really good. The main dishes were ok, a bit too much of the cheese on both made it a bit “same same”. Would have been better if one dish has completely different flavour profile. Overall service was fantastic, ambience of the place was great. Good music. One thing…the venue was cold tho 🥶
