A really memorable restaurant 17th May 2009

I was in London on business and staying nearby and discovered Giovanni's by chance.

This is a proper Italian restaurant with friendly service and a delightful ambience. I really enjoyed my Tricolore starter, pasta with smoked chicken with garlic for a main course, and the awesome chocolate mousse. The house wine was very drinkable.

This is an unpretentious and welcoming restaurant, and if we lived nearby my wife and I would probably be in there all the time! As it was, I was made to feel very at home eating on my own, and will without doubt be returning in the future.

It is as good - if not slightly better - than my other favourite Italian which is Casalingo in Brighton.

A real treasure.
