Trattoria Verdi

My wife and I visited Trattoria Verdi in South Hampton after a delightful day at the British Museum, and we couldn't have chosen a better place for dinner. The Margherita pizza we ordered was simply outstanding - the crust was perfectly crispy, the sauce had a rich, authentic flavor, and the fresh basil added a wonderful touch. To top off our meal, we indulged in a heavenly chocolate tart that was the perfect blend of rich chocolate and delicate sweetness. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Overall, our experience at Trattoria Verdi was exceptional, and we look forward to returning soon. Highly recommended! Big Hugs from yours news Brazilians Clients and Friends.

I just had the most incredible pizza—crispy crust, melted cheese, and perfectly balanced flavors. Highly recommend to anyone craving a slice of heaven! Great service!! Silvia’s behaviour was very nice and warming, Must visit for authentic taste of food!!

We made a booking for seven people but half the group arrived early, the owner welcomed us and had our table ready. He was super friendly and chatted to us. We also came with our dog who was treated excellently! Offered us water for her etc. The food was incredible, nice music in the background, lovely service and super relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

Omg amazing food, chilled atmosphere, not too busy. It was just a great place to eat and relax. I'm definitely going to visit this place again, also the staff were great, especially the lady that served us.

Cozy place, great service and delicious dishes!!! My husband and I went on Valentine's Day, we ordered pasta and dessert, and it was without a doubt the best pasta I've ever had in my life! We intend to return soon! thank you 🙏🏼😻🍝😋

Sat outside in the sun on the terras, didnt wanna leave anymore.We shared 4 delicious pizza's with 6 people. And had desserts. The tiramisu was really good. Got some limoncello on the house. Very nice people.

Wonderful restaurant with a beautiful, cosy interior. Lots of options to help you with ordering if you feel unsure. Wonderful staff and such a kind owner. I strongly recommend! 🤍

The best italian food in Bloomsbury!! Must try : 1. Mussels 2. Tagliatelle pesto 3. Tagliatelle al salmone

Last minute decision as we weren't very hungry. Ordered the mussels and garlic bread. Delish. Followed by a pizza with prosciutto, rocket and olives. The crust was perfect. Flavorful ingredients. Ate a lot more than we anticipated. The ambiance was delightful, and the owner terrific. Service was excellent. Highly recommend.

The staff here are so wonderful and the atmosphere was very charming. The pizza was absolutely delicious and at the end of our meal, we were offered limoncello on the house!

Thoroughly delightful discovery! We were hungry after our play ended and came across this gem, which is a fabulous restaurant that also stays open late - a rarity in this part of London from our experience. The service was charming, the food was delicious, the prices were reasonable, and we would return again. We did not get to try the desserts but they looked amazing, and the atmosphere was quiet but fun with good people watching. Highly recommend!

I mean, I will judge this restaurant as "late nighter" considering we popped in shortly before closing and the staff was polite and generous about it. In a nutshell, I'd say this restaurant over performed my expectations. The pizza was a late night reward, wet and sloppy.

This restaurant is decent, but not great. The inside was clean, and the service was good. My only complaint is that the food lacked flavor. I had the "chef's specialty" which is spaghetti with marinara and meatballs, and it tasted bland. However, they gave me a free shot of limoncello at the end, which was a nice touch.

Most amazing service! So delicious! Had gluten free pasta! BEST OWNER! So kind here!!!! Must go!!!!!

The man who owns the place is a sexist, and nasty. I just wanted a piece of dessert to go, he took two men who came in after me before me. He was very nasty and short temper. He gives Italians a bad name ...I left because no one has time for that, in the cakes look like a piece of sewage. They are disgusting, and marinating in old looking liquid. The place was dirty too. I left. I would give him 0 stars if I can. What a nasty persom...I wouldn't give him any business. When he finally got to me, I asked him for tiramisu and teapot another fruit cooking cake on the plate. I told him that it was wrong, and he said it was right and was very mean. So at that point I just walked out. I just walked right out and went to Pizza Express, who has absolutely delicious desserts by the way. The woman in there was so delightful.

Quirky and delightful - Good value but not perfect The staff really make this place - from the servers to the bartender to the pianist everyone seemed happy to be here and they really make you feel like family invited to a party that they host every night. The decor is a bit homely with tile floors, banquet chairs and amateurish paintings adorning the walls. The restaurant specializes in seafood but we were in the mood for lighter fare so we ordered a selection of pizzas - all of which were uniformly good (though not perfect). One of us did order Gnocchi with pesto which was overcooked. That said, they did have an Amarone which was delicious and very well priced. The desserts were all quite fabulous - particularly the tiramisu - as was the limoncello. In short, if you are looking for an evening of fine dining this is not the place for you. But if you want a fun evening with good food at an attractive price you could do far, far worse.

Decent food, but overpriced. It's nice to have the piano player though, who plays classical music. I came with a (boy)friend late one rainy Saturday evening around 11PM and when we asked, "are you still serving" was promptly seated with an "of course!" We sat by this pretty mural of the tourist highlights of Italy (Venice to the left, Trevy Fountain in the centre, then the Colosseum in the top-right background, with Piza in the front. While not at all geographically accurate, it was still nice to look at while waiting for our food, dining, and listening to the piano. My friend had the whitefish, which came fried (he didn't like it that much, I thought it was okay-for cooked fish...but then again, I don't really like cooked fish). I had the stuffed mushrooms and the "Maryland" chicken. The mushrooms were good, and I should have gotten bread with it to soak up the delicious butter sauce that it came in, but I wanted to save room for my entree. For the "Maryland" chicken, as someone who lived in the DC-Maryland area, I honestly would have expected Crab, NOT chicken as the pairing. I guess their interpretation of any American city is that everything is fried, which is how the dish arrived. Deep-fried, at that. Deep-fried chicken (still looking for Chicken Parm in this city, they obviously know how to do it, and this WAS an Italian restaurant). Deep-fried pineapple. Deep-fried banana. For what it's worth, the fried pineapple and banana were delicious. The chicken wasn't bad either. It's just that by the end of the meal, I was wishing for a sauce of some kind (mainly tomato, for the chicken...). It's not that the chicken was dry--actually, it quite moist for fried chicken( -oh wait, that's grease not natural moisture). It's just that after eating several fried things, my mouth wanted a bit of moist variety to go with it. (and get your mind out of the gutter.) The dessert cart was sitting right next to me, and I do have to admit that I eyed it longingly before ordering. After finishing the food, (which wasn't bad, just not fantastic) I was too full to want to eat anything else. I definitely will return to try their desserts though, because they looked amazing. I imagine sitting, eating the delicious tiramisu, listening to the piano...ah, it's a nice idea.

I love local restaurants, as much as possible when I travel. Trattoria Verdi is a good find. Just a few steps away from the Hilton Doubletree hotel on Southampton Row and two blocks from Holborn Tube it's worth checking out Very friendly staff from Italy. Fresh food, nice specials. I had the Tre Colori Insalata, with fresh avocado, fresh mozzarella and tomatoes. The chicken special, Cesar Polli was excellent. Live piano music was especially nice as well. I highly recommend this place!!

Recently (within the past month) whilst on a vacation in London, we were recommended to eat at this wonderful Italian restaurant near our hotel. What a delight. The family who owns this restaurant are adorable! We ate here twice in our 10 day stay and had different dishes each time. The fettuccine alfredo is wonderful. The arribiatta sauce is especially (and appropriately) spicy. I even asked if they could "make" me a cesar salad, and they did their best to come up with something spectacular! The restaurant is in close walking distance to The British Museum and between the Russell Square and Holborn tube stations. It's always nice to go to a restaurant where the owner fusses about the tables ensuring that everyone is enjoying the food. Also, there is a piano player who is outstanding and she played classics to Disney to show tunes. It was wonderful!!

A delight for this weary traveler! I arrived late into London and was lucky that this spot stays open late. They staff (including owner) was very welcoming. The restaurant was clean and inviting. The live piano player was a nice touch. I had the bruschetta and the veal scaloppini. Both were excellent. I also had a glass of the Montepulciano red and finished it off with a tiramisa. I slept great and woke up the next morning refreshed and ready to walk the city! Highly recommended.

We waited over 15 minutes to even get some menus, 40 minutes for our food and over 20 minutes to get the check. Poor food with my pasta carbora having next to no bacon in it. Absolutely terrible.

Good service and food. 1/2 liters of wine, but only house by glass disappointing. Zips Pomodoro tomato soup delicious by served to hot.

Very underwhelmed! I saw a lot of people in here as I walked from the doubletree and thought it had to be ok. I should have checked yelp. I ordered a Caesar w no anchovies and received a Caesar w anchovies and no dressing. The Veal piccata was lacking, way too much dough in a city w great places to sneak a bite. Pass on this one

Wow! This was some really good Italian food. It was a good place to take a family after a late flight. It is nice and cozy. Me and my family of four ordered a rustic pizza with mushrooms, pesto pasta, and spaghetti and meatballs.When we sat down at our table the first thing I noticed was the beautiful artwork. Our server was really polite and nice. If she made a little mistake ( which was very rare ) she would fix it immediately. We asked for some garlic bread one serving with cheese and one without. The one without cheese I feel was better because you could taste more of the garlic. When our food came, it was delicious and just the right around. It was probably a family restaurant. It made me feel good to support them. After it was finished i was full but not to much. The desert cart looked delicious but I was too full. If I ever go their again, I will try the cake. Yum! I recommend this place to tourists and visitors looking for a good family meal in London! there was one down side though. Garlic bread was $6:00! other than that it was amazing!!!

Omg I wish I came here from first night in London. I enjoyed every single bite and warm welcoming service from every single servers on floor. They are one big awesome team to please customers with amazing yumminess. What else do you want?

Finally a restaurant in London that has good service! I stopped here this evening for dinner. After having the past two days of typical UK non-existent service where you have to hunt someone down to get a refill or anything else including the bill, I was pleasantly surprised to get great service here. I ordered the caprese salad and grilled seabream. The salad was good and the mozzarella was very fresh. The fish was excellent and came with a white wine dill sauce that was good. I've never had seabream before so I don't know if this is typical or not, but I had to be careful eating it as as there were a number of small bones (15 total). The fish came with some potatoes and steamed vegetables which were tasty. The food was good, but the biggest thing that impressed me though was the great service. Everyone there had a service mentality and this was a nice change. I will definitely be back if I am in the area.

Loved this place. Staff was more than accommodating and the food was excellent! Pedro was helpful with the menu and made great recommendations. House piano was a nice touch. Would definitely come back next time we're in town!

The food was really good and reasonably priced. I had the Fettuccine with salmon and the other two had another salmon entre and veal parmigiana. While the food was good, the service was slow. I would go back.

I try to stay away from the tourist traps and chain restaurants, instead wandering into small restaurants catering to locals and business travelers. I was not disappointed here, the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing and the staff friendly and attentive. The caprese salad was a little light on mozzarella but the fettuccine Alfredo was buttery and very filling but not heavy on the stomach. The house white wine was sweet and not too dry, inviting me to have a second glass and the tiramisu was a wonderful ending, the coffee obvious in both the flavor and moist texture as is often missing in the states. I will definitely come back again.

Excellent experience! Good food, wonderful attentive staff. We had pasta and chicken dishes and both were solid. Lovely piano music accompanied our meal. The house wine is delicious - worth buying a bottle.

This is a fairly standard Italian restaurant with a big pasta menu and a cosy atmosphere, located very centrally, near Russell Square station. I went there tonight to an enormous dinner (50 people) after a conference. The organisers had booked an entire room downstairs, which was cosy and pleasant, although the decor was slightly odd (skis and pictures of Venice?). The staff were friendy and helpful and coped fantastically with such a big group (bigger in fact than the original booking had stated). The courses came out quickly and they managed to serve everyone at the same time, despite the fact that we had all ordered different dishes: this was impressive! The food, however, was not enormously exciting and the meal turned out being quite expensive for what it was (about £20 for a starter and a main). I had the minestrone starter and a vegetarian pasta main, both of which were fine but nothing special. Some of the fish and other pasta dishes looked more interesting, but nothing looked amazing. The parmesan was not freshly grated... I would recommend the place for a big booking somewhere fairly central, but I wouldn't feel passoniate about returning there for the food.

Wonderful experience! I felt like I was having dinner in Italy again. Husband had spaghetti carbonara- filling but not heavy! I had the fettuccine with smoked salmon- fantastic! Definitely get the house red wine. If you plan on drinking more than one glass, get the bottle. Try the home made desserts as well. The tiramisu was delicious. If we ever come back to London will have to dine at this lovely restaurant again!

Delicious Italian food, piping hot, fresh roses on the table, piano music in the background, open to 1 am. Cannot wait to go back again!!! Five stars...

Very friendly and inviting. Can't remark on Italian authenticity except all the staff and many of the customers spoke Italian. Close to the British Museum. Quite unassuming and simple. Good food. Piano player sometimes.
