I've only been here once so don't feel I can give it 5 stars but the meal I had there was excellent. We had the lobster linguine and the parpadelle with boar sauce. Both were excellent. Portions are large.]]> Mon, 30 Jul 2007 17:23:30 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1o62l76/numero-uno/1x33h81305077347 mollymc 51.455054767069 -0.16488029823118 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1o62l76/numero-uno/1f92t8

Numero Uno is one of those restaurants that you know will never let you down. Like a good friend I guess. Or one of those old favourite toys you had when you were a kid.

You know its always gonna be there. Its like you know that the décor and loos are a little bit shabby but you know deep in your heart it's a trusted place.

One of those places you go when you fancy a quick supper, somewhere you go with your sister and her children for lunch, somewhere you go with your boyfriend for a romantic dinner or somewhere that you can go on birthdays or other such celebrations!

The menu is awash with the most wonderful flavours, fresh produce and choices beyond belief. One of my favourite dishes is the lobster with linguine. It's melt in the mouth delicious. Huge lobsters served with unending reams
of pasta. I also love the pasta vongole ( clams , garlic!) The starters are good and huge carpaccio is a must for all meat eaters!!! The mains always generously sized ( again) with a great array of traditional Italian dishes such as veal (so un-pc) or sea bass cooked their way!

Wine is always at a high standard - even the house wine. (Which let's be fair at most places taste like rancid battery juice!)
But really the highlight for me is the desert trolley. It's every woman's dream. Chocolate profiteroles are my favourite, as is anything with caramel, lemons, apples, liquor, cream!!

So there It is the old faithful&a time and time again favourite&. but the one thing that makes this place really special is the staff the Italian waiters and waitresses who have been working there for years and years and know that their restaurant is an absolute treasure in South London. Always packed but somehow has managed to stay this guilty secret among us in the know!! Oh and by the way I am only telling you this because I like you.
