Esperienza Autentica

4.0 out of 5.0

November 04, 2007

Il Bordello, despite the saucy name, is a cozy homey Italian restaurant serving all the classic Italian comfort foods. The staff is extremely friendly and make you feel like a regular even if you've never been there before. The service is amazingly attentive.

Everything I have had here has been delicious - nothing remotely cutting edge, but classic and well-prepared. The portions are generous and reasonably priced. Definitely try their pizzas for their delicious crust and don't miss the incredible lasagna. Il Bordello also does a brisk take-out business, which is a great option if you neglect to make reservations - this little gem gets packed full nearly every night, so call in advance.

Authentic Italian old school

4.0 out of 5.0

August 14, 2007

It's a great old school Italian home cooking restaurant deep in the heart of Wapping. The portions are hearty, the food is very authentic if a little on the heavy side, the wine is competitively priced but not cheap. It's always packed, you always need to book in advance and if you don't like busy, noisy places this isn't for you. The Cottoletta Milanese is the best in London, the four cheese Gnocci is exceptional. The service is good if a little slow at times, but overall it's well worth a visit if you like Italian food.
