Il Convivio - London

**** closed!!!!! Booked to go there last night. Trolled into London, had a quick drink then wandered round to find this place is closed, and looks as though it has been for many weeks!!!! Would it be so hard to put something on the website to that effect like most other places have? Instead they still show a menu, wine list and take bookings and send email confirmation of the booking. Given their lack of attention and consideration I wouldn’t ever eat there! Thanks for wasting our time you thoughtless muppets.

This is a very good Italian restaurant which never fails to impress. I loved both the octopus starter and my black spaghetti with lobster main course. Service as always efficient, friendly and discrete plus a tempting wine menu.

On a rainy Tuesday in February we were among few diners; had this restaurant been in NYC, a Three week wait would be necessary to get a table. The salad and soup were great starters, the mains calf's liver, branzino were amazing. A clue to great Italian cuisine is the table olive oil, and the Sicilian selection was perfect. After 5 lengthy trips to Italy Sicily, this restaurant is right up there with the best. It's a short walk from Victoria, in a nice neighborhood. And...great wine selection as well.

It’s always difficult to decide where to eat pre theatre. I don’t just want to ‘make do’ with so so food or being rushed. Well Il Convivio provided the perfect answer .... The restaurant is smart , but not stuffy the staff were very welcoming and understood our need to be finished within an hour and ten minutes. The food was first class my zuppata starter was one of the most flavoursome I have ever tasted.Our Vermentino was on point and we both managed three courses and coffee without feeling rushed at all . Perfect.

My new favourite restaurant went a few weeks ago with friends little Masha was a hit with your kind team back a few days ago with my fiancee as good as the last time super!!!!
