If you want bad food and terrible service then go here. The place is a shocker and ruined our evening - we had staff ignoring us and when we complained - were rude in return and commented about us to other tables. Our meals were undercooked (the risotto) bland (the pasta) and didnt turn up (the pizza). Oh and then we got slugged with a service charge... highly recommend going elsewhere!]]> Sun, 02 Aug 2009 00:15:20 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1191e6m/la-porchetta/1n6yx71378744925 Phil2 51.569907 -0.113509 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1191e6m/la-porchetta/100637

I am admittedly obsessed with pizza - if I could only ever have a few ingredients in my life for the remainder of my time here, I would choose flour, cheese, and tomatoes.

And since I no longer live close to what I consider to be the very best pizza restaurant in this world (Fantozzi in Southgate), I have to make do with what's local.

So La Porchetta it is.

Great sauce - the basil really comes through, very fresh toppings, extremely large portions - it's rather good. It's quite good. But it's not Fantozzi, nor will it ever be. But you won't go wrong with this chain - you will leave full and happy. And smiling at the sometimes surly, sometimes cheerful Italian students that make up the staff - they are very cute, even on a bad day. Or maybe I'm just a sucker for the accents...]]> Wed, 05 Dec 2007 21:06:50 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1191e6m/la-porchetta/1006372021131333 Sami italian family & home feel cheap eat 51.569907 -0.113509
