We booked this restaurant to celebrate a 40th Birthday. The restaurant came on reccomdndation and I have to say we were not disappointed. The food was excellent and the staff were very attentive. The whole evening was a complete success and everyone left feeling well fed and happy. The menu is varied and competitively priced, and the staff were able to deal with our large group as well as the rest of the restaurant on a busy Saturday evening. We will be back again in the future.
A lovely friendly place to eat. Plenty of food and drink choices. The manager and staff couldn't do enough for my son and I as it was his 18th Birthday Meal. It was a present along with a theatre show but would thoroughly recommend and go again. xx
This restaurant has become a favorite of mine! The staff are very friendly, great with children and the restaurant is also good as a couple, we've had a few romantic meals here and family meals. The food is delicious, I would recommend the gnocchi and the carbonara! Thank you!
Found it by chance as off to the theatre opposite. Super place and will make an effort to return...good food, great organic wine and courteous staff!
I was with my wife for birthday we had calamari and mussels wonderful,for main gnocchi and fettuccine with king prawns well done to staff for looking after us big thank you too the manager Giovanni
We had a wonderful family meal at assaggetti, the service was impeccable, food delicious and they were so kind to my little daughter! Can't recommend highly enough, we will certainly be back! Thank you for the dancing Christmas tree (you had to be there!) �
Great place!! Stuff are friendly and nice. Very good quality of food and good service!
Would definitely recommend this place.
My girlfriend brought me here for dinner before a theatre performance and we both absolutely loved it here. The restaurant itself is perfectly positioned and very well decorated. It's a very warm and welcoming atmosphere with super friendly staff. The waiters are quick to ensure everything is to your liking and make sure you're comfortable. The food is to die for; as usual we both ordered pizzas which are of a very generous portion size. I ended up eating one and a half and my goodness are they satisfying. At the end we were very happy with the bill as everything is generously priced for what you get.
Staff more business like than friendly. 2 of our anti pasta came with a lot of sauce but no bread or spoon to mop it up. Our waitress was helpful with wine choice though when the one we wanted wasn't available. Food was delicious. Would have been 5 stars if any of them had given us a smile or checked all was ok during our meal. The restaurant wasn't busy so it wasn't as if they were stressed or hadn't time.
The food was nice. We got the scallops, truffle ravioli, mozzarella and onion pizza, Tuscan sausage pizza and the one with rocket. My favorite was probably the rocket pizza which was incredibly cheesy. Everyone else favored the Tuscan. The service was nice and pleasantly attentive.

On a sunny Monday lunchtime we strolled to Assaggetti tempted by their lunchtime offer of two courses for £16.95. It was a good choice. The room is massive and a trip to the loo can add significantly to your step count if you're concerned about that sort of thing. Fellow diners were sparse (there's a lot of competition in this part of London), being mostly office workers as far as I could tell.
The food was good value. Smoked salmon to kick off was a generous enough portion with a drizzle of balsamic and some shavings of sweet onion. The spicy tuscan sausage pizza was delicious and big enough for a larger appetite than I possess. I tried to finish the lot because the crust was delicious but I just didn't have the capacity. The house white at just over 21 quid a bottle was fine and helped the conversation along.
The one downside for a musically sensitive soul like myself was their decision to play Sting after Sting after Sting. For me a little Sting goes a long way. I didn't like it. The service however was excellent so if you want a quick cheap lunch around here, and you can tolerate Sting on the jukebox, Assaggetti isn't a bad option.
Booked a table as part of a theatre package, couldn't have been more convenient as located literally opposite the Theatre Royal Haymarket. Got the Italian tapas menu which was 3 items each from a set menu which were tasty and surprising generous portion - only complaint would be the calamari I had was possibly a little over seasoned, but I use very little salt normally so probably just my personal taste.
Dessert however was a little disappointing - went for a cheesecake to share between two of us and it was quite a small portion and rather dry.
Anytime I'm in the area, I stop here for lunch. The olives are fat, plump, and insanely fresh. They are the best. My husband and I usually share several small dishes and also love their pizza. Their ravioli is SO fresh, and the meatballs are scrumptious, their pate is my favourite. All of the staff are Italian, however, so clearly express yourself. We've never had an issue, but after reading some reviews it appears some people are surprised to find Italians running and working in an Italian restaurant.
Food was generally tasty, if rather oversalted. The portions were a bit small, but I didn't feel hungry at the end of three courses.
Prices weren't too bad (there's a chef's specialties, which is about £12 for 3 courses).
The staff were very pleasant and friendly, very helpful.
I have been back numerous times. Authentic Italian food, rustic look with friendly waiters and relaxed atmosphere with a good wine selection in the middle of the West end... You can choose small platters for sharing too. Stefania
This is the best restaurant I've ever been to for lunch! The food is delicious, and it's probably the best italian food I've ever tasted. The pizza bolognese is fantastic, and so is the risotto with mushrooms too. The portions are small, almost tapas size, but they taste like heaven.
Assaggetti is easily accessible by public transport, and serves excellent Italian cicchetti and other authentic dishes in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Pleasant and attentive service, and the kitchen accommodated my requirements of no fat or dairy with no problems at all. You must save space for dessert - their chocolate cake is made with dark chocolate and cocoa, more like a brownie than a cake but the perfect end to a lovely meal. Strongly recommend visiting! :-)

As newlyweds my wife and me went there on our honeymoon to London for dinner before going to the theater.
The service of the personal was incredibly fast, which was really impressive because the resturant was full at the time but deeply appriciated since we were in a hurry due to us running late for "the Phantom".
The food was so amazing that we had to come back the next day (and would have the day after again if we stayed longer) and we especially reccommend the Tiramisu!
We also got to talk to the manager, who were walking the resturant and greeting the customers to check if everything was in order, and he provided us with a couple of shot of Limoncello for free. Nothing that may have been an expensive service, but one that along side him talking to us made us feel extremly welcome.
Thus, we deeply reccomend going to the resturant for the warm services, delicious food and the great Tiramisu :-)
-Rikke & Christian, the newlyweds
