"A classic old school Italian, Saporitalia is much more straightforward than that puzzle you’ve been attempting for approximately 4000 hours. Get their Neopolitan-style pizzas and simple pasta dishes delivered from Notting Hill." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Saporitalia serves some of the best Italian food in west London, in an unpretentious, friendly, family-run space. It’s the kind of old-school Italian spot that has garlands of dried chillies hanging above the bar and chequerboard floors, and where birthdays are celebrated with a round of fountain candles stuck in tiramisu. The troughs of pasta are great, and classic dishes like parmigiana di melanzane are comforting. When the weather’s nice, the big sliding doors open on to the glorious Portobello Garden Arcade, and the quaint outdoor terrace is a lovely place to be." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
"Saporitalia is a proper old school family-run Italian in Notting Hill that delivers pastas, pizzas, a couple lowkey salads, and your classic dolce. And yes, that tiramisu order is absolutely necessary." - oliver feldman, heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"Two words: wooden panelling. One of our favourite aesthetic hints that we’re in cosy Italian stalwart territory. Saporitalia has that laid-back look, is family-run, and completely unpretentious. The relaxed attitude means you may find yourself waiting for your order a little longer than you’d like, but if you’re ready to accept that, you’re in for a great time. The staff are friendly and the food is good. Not earth-shattering, but always satisfying and at prices that are in keeping with Saporitalia’s status as a firm Portobello Road favourite." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, rianne shlebak
"We love seeing our friends. And when we say friends, we mean the anonymous delivery driver that knocks at our door and runs away. We also love eating big pizzas with a side of rigatoni alla norma, with some garlic focaccia thrown in for good measure. Saporitalia are delivering all of the above from Notting Hill, and yes there is tiramisu too." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
