Ugggh… want a quick coffee? Don’t bother coming here then. Very busy, lots of staff, and all menu items as they normally are at any Carluccio’s. The problem is that the strategy for actually serving people is a bit wayward. On my last visit, I was asked to see myself to a table. Absolutely fine so far. After about ten minutes, someone came to the table and assured me my coffee was on the way. This in itself was interesting, as no-one had taken my order. Having ordered black coffee, toast, and iced water, what I eventually got was two glasses of water(one tepid tap, one as ordered), coffee(but why bring milk with black coffee?), and slightly burnt panetone. Ok. Now it’s time to pay. Another ten minutes to get someone’s attention, and 15 before someone actually comes to pick up the tray with the cash on. Jeeps.

My favorite meal while in London in the £-££ range! Every restaurant we try, we try because it offers gluten free options(that actually sound appetizing). They offer both a gluten free menu and a dairy free menu. I ordered the pan fried Branzino with sautéed spinach. I asked for the puttanesca sauce on top and it was delicious! For dessert, my mother and I shared the passion fruit meringue and the rich chocolate cake with vanilla gelato. I’m very sensitive to gluten and did not get sick at all.

Ended up going for the set 2 course menu. Started with a warm goats cheese salad. Goats cheese came on a watered down tomato sauce with crispy leaves that felt it had been sitting under the hot lamp too long. I then went for the Italian sausage pasta. Sauce wasn’t too great and hardly any sausage in the pasta. Portion size was also way too small and felt it was more of a light lunch sized dish. As the portions were so small we tried to order a dessert because we were still very hungry. After 20 minutes of trying to get the waitresses attention, we gave up and decided to leave. We paid, left and I will never be coming back again.(Visit — 16/05/2015 Dinner)

Were ok with us just having a drink here without the pressure of having to eat. Free wi fi always a plus especially in a place which you would probably use for business meetings given the location. Waiting staff polite and prompt with service. Didn’t sample food, maybe next time!
