• Italian • Waterloo

Booked 1 time today

Since the Romans left, the Italians have been operating a policy of conquering the world's palate, plate by plate, and traditionally-run family restaurants like Cotto are their failsafe. The welcome is unfailingly warm here, the decor is authentic in feel, with murals on the walls, and the pleasures of the table are taken seriously indeed. Cotto is a 5-minute walk from the London Eye and the Aquarium, perfect for before or after family outings and it's also very popular with business customers during the week. There's live music on offer, too. As for the menu, try classic Tricolor salad to start, one of more than a dozen pastas, like Spaghetti carbonara, and a main course of simply and beautifully grilled Sirloin steak. Or just opt for a pizza and be happy!

Lovely friendly welcome. Excellent spot with authentic Spanish atmosphere. Staff excellent, attentive and friendly without being overly familiar. Leyan was especially helpful with the menu and general hospitality. Food was superb. Chorizo, Patatas Bravas garlic prawns and some aubergine dish my wife ordered that was delicious. Was slightly nervous after reading recent reviews but was pleasantly surprised.
