Top Best Italian Restaurants in London Borough of Tower Hamlets

"The River Cafe is an institution and one of the best restaurants in London. Set against the backdrop of the Thames, it has one of the most coveted terraces as it is, and having been shut for months, it's already booked out for quite some time. You may have to wait to get a table, but it'll be worth it for Ruth Rogers' famously excellent Italian cooking."

"A post shared by The River Café (@therivercafelondon) on Jul 30, 2018 at 1:02pm PDT. While we’d be perfectly happy eating on the pavement outside any one of our favourite restaurants, eating outside on The River Café’s terrace is a privilege. Now, would you like to get your own chocolate nemesis or share?"

"Where: Thames Wharf, Rainville Rd, Hammersmith, London W6 9HA. As long as you don't think about the bill, sitting out on the banks of the Thames enjoying the super Italian food here really is a case of 'life doesn't get much better than this'."

"Trullo’s elegant dining room and simple, seasonal food, marks it out both as one London’s best Italian restaurants and one of the city’s finest neighbourhood restaurants. Dark wood, low lighting, white table cloths, and just-put-it-on-the-plate plating characterise it as decidedly anti-Instagram. Trullo’s spiritual parents are the two most important restaurants of a generation: the River Cafe and St. John, so dishes marry Italian traditions with British (and Italian) ingredients — fashioned into delicious antipasti, fresh pastas and secondi, dishes which often do a little time on the charcoal grill."

"This Islington neighbourhood restaurant has a reputation that reaches far beyond its borough. Owners Jordan Frieda and Tim Siadatan met while working at the River Café and the Italian menu keenly reflects those roots. Trullo is best described as a contemporary trattoria, with small, white-clothed tables, industrial-style hanging lamps and white walls."

"London may not seem like one of those cities that are synonymous with great pizza, but Homeslice seeks to change that. Serving up a selection of hearty pies (or slices!), Homeslice also offers vegan opions. The Covent Garden (Neal's Yard) location in particular is close to great shopping, so after a day of retail therapy, stop in for a delicious slice."

"Proving pizza can be just as delicious without the cheese is Homeslice, one of London’s best pizza joints. Plant-based options include a mushroom number with chilli flakes and a soy truffle glaze, plus the ‘Ndontja, topped with tenderstem broccoli, vegan mozzarella and vegan ‘Nduja.

"Neal’s Yard is a colorful alley in Covent Garden. It’s worth the quick visit just to take a photo. Just around the corner is Neal’s Yard Dairy, one of the best spots in the city to sample artisanal cheese."

"23-25 Davies Street, W1K 3DEYou either get Cipriani food or you don't. Tagliolini verdi gratinati, scampi thermidor and zabaglione cake might sound like Italian staples but, trust us, with the Cip treatment they become something divine. They're eye-wateringly expensive, of course, which in a perverse way may even add to their lustre."

"Restaurants Italian Covent Garden. Eating in this grand Covent Garden offshoot of Petersham Nurseries in Richmond feels a bit like dining alfresco – what with the palm trees in massive pots, the posies of flowers on each table and the general air of light and space. But the Petersham also has a splendid courtyard for that genuine outdoor vibe – complete with even more trees, plant-filled urns and other horticultural paraphernalia."

"When it comes to outdoor restaurants in Covent Garden, Petersham Nurseries is one of the prettiest. Tucked away near the iconic market, the gorgeous spot is ideal for Italian food, great wines and weekend lunches whether with mates or a date."

"The good people at Canto Corvino in Spitalfields understand that some people don’t only want to eat Italian just for lunch or dinner. Head chef Tom Salt and his team have developed menus that are simplistic, delicious, and keep customers satisfied throughout the day; whether tucking into lemon ricotta pancakes for breakfast, Sicilian red prawn, chilli and tomato arancini for lunch, or a full range of Italian dinner options."

"The Fuzzy Bear can provide you with comedy, cocktails and live music. Whatever night you are after having you will be able to enjoy at The Fuzzy Bear. They have some amazing DJ’s that play the best music around."

"Aside from viewing the gorgeous estate located on the east end of St. James’s Park, visitors to Buckingham Palace can view the Changing of the Guard, one of the most quintessentially British traditions."

"Buckingham Palace is the official residence of Britain’s sovereigns since 1837. It is also the administrative headquarters of the Monarch."

"Old Royal Naval College This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Greenwich. It once served as a naval hospital and later as a naval college. Now, this site is being used as a filming location for many famous movies such as The King’s Speech, Patriot Games, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Avengers, and The Dark Knight Rises."

"The Old Royal Naval College is a set of buildings designed by Christopher Wren whose original purpose was to serve as a place to care for and house retired seamen. Later the large building complex was used as a naval training college and today is used for a number of functions, and many of the buildings are open to the public."

"Begun by Sir Christopher Wren in 1694 as a rest home for ancient mariners, the college became a school in 1873. It's still used for classes…"
