Review of La Porchetta

20 Jul 07, 16:49

Eat so much that it hurts but it's cheap and it's good food 4*

I was introduced to this place by some Italians a while back so it is fairly authentic. When you're inside, you'll probably notice that it's a bit of a tight squeeze or to put it more eloquently, cosy and intimate. You could almost be at Wagamamas because you are so close to your next table and it is quite noisy. However, the food is excellent and there is a lot of it. Pastas, pizzas, risottos whichever you choose the portions are massive and at between £5-7 per main, it's more than good value. They are not the most adventurous of dishes but they are good at what they do which is simple Italian dishes. One time I went with a friend whose birthday it was and we let the waiters know. They came along later during the meal to bang pans and cover my friend's face in pizza dough. It was very fun.

Best thing about where I live It's so central that I can walk everywhere and there's a lot of squares of grass dotted about.
Worst thing about where I live There are too many tourists and its always busy.
