Almost a perfect dining experience. We tried the 10 course menu and enjoyed most of the dishes provided. Some creative and interesting flavours with a lot of fusion influence. Prawns were the highlight and were very fresh and the quality of produce was also very high. Unfortunately the dining experience became unbearably long as the restaurant for busier with service becoming slower and slower and all in all, a 10 course menu became over a 3 hour dinner. The dessert was also a let down as well which was sad not to have a last dish but definitely worth coming to try and perfect for couples or celebrations with groups of friends.

Really lovely restaurant with an enjoyable ambience, great service, and a rollercoaster of fusion flavours for the tastebuds. We had the 10 course tasting menu for £65pp and each course was different, exciting, and flavourful! The waiters and waitresses were friendly and easy going. There was a couple sitting next to us and the girlfriend said she was cold and the waiter got out a little portable heater for her which I thought was very nice of them. Came here as a surprise birthday treat and they put a candle is the dessert for me ☺️ Overall, a wonderful dining experience! Would recommend!

We had a 10-course tasting menu at the Chef’s table. One of us opted for the Vegetarian. The food was overall great and we enjoyed the variety of dishes! They were full of surprising flavors. We’ve had worse food at Michelin-starred restaurants. However, we can confirm that some dishes were not as memorable as others. The service was great and attentive, despite some minor spilling (not on us thankfully). The only three minor negative points to mention: 1. the chairs at the chef’s table are not particularly comfortable for 2 hours 2. we had a later dinner slot (8.30), so towards the end of our dinner the whole restaurant went into cleaning & tidying mode which somewhat disrupted our (and the other few remaining guests’) experience 3. The Vegetarian menu was not printed so had to rely on description of the waiter Overall great value for money though and would definitely go again!

We took the 10 course kaiseki menu (with 1 vegetarian option and 1 standard menu) and everything was absolutely delicious! Would definitely recommend to food lovers! Few things that I noted though: - The staff seemed quite stressed and we could feel it - Some dishes were to be shared in the same plate, which was ok for us, but seemed a bit weird to me.

This can be one of the best dining experiences in London, if not the best 👌🏻 We went to Angelina to celebrate my partner’s birthday. Although I am Japanese and we love Japanese food so much, I wanted a bit of a twist (as we recently visited Japan) and I saw Angelina featured multiple times with keywords like “best seafood restaurant in London”. So I gave it a go. Well, it was a wise choice. We ordered 10 courses for £65 a person and enjoyed all the dishes. The creativity of the dishes is at another level. This is what you should have in London - an amazing fusion of the two cuisines and the dishes had the features of both cuisines equally. I can confirm that such fusion is not something you can find in Japan. They have a huge selection of alcohol, especially Italian wine and I would say they are reasonably priced. You can also order some Japanese alcohol or fusion cocktails. The staff were nice and engaging. Also, the decor of the shop is modern and neat. Now I will have to come back for 4 courses 😊

One of the best restaurant experiences I’ve ever had! We had the 10 course tasting menu and it was fabulous. The wine pairing was absolutely perfect with the food, staff were super attentive and the food was out of this world. Would recommend for a special occasion

Delicious food, beautifully presented! I wish we had some of the extra courses but we didn't realise until later they existed. The wine pairing was very interesting, featuring both classic and more unusual wines. The outside seating is lovely, surrounded by some hedges for privacy from the street, though there is some traffic noise, so do book inside if that sort of thing bothers you. Overall, I really recommend: it's such a little gem of a beautiful tasting menu at a reasonable price.

Went to Angelina’s for their 10 course tasting menu on a Saturday night. I enjoyed the variety of different courses over 2 hours and it really was a culinary experience! As mentioned in other reviews, some dishes are amazing while others were good but not memorable. My personal favourite is definitely the ravioli. It was filled with cheese on the inside and topped with Parmesan, and it was amazing, very well balanced. The bread starters and the cheese ice cream at the end were also delicious. Overall, I think the price is reasonable for the variety and quality of the tasting menu. It was a culinary experience and was a memorable one! Would highly recommend for a date or special occasion. Also, the waiters were super friendly and professional as well. They explained each of the dishes to us, and if they notice one of us was in the bathroom, they will wait to serve our food when both of us are at the table. Impeccable service!

Angelina is a lovely, small restaurant with a perfect atmosphere. We went there for our anniversary, and the food surpassed our expectations. Every dish was a delightful blend of Japanese and Italian flavors, unique and delicious. We highly recommend it!

It was questionable risky (and maybe, slightly intentionally cheeky) to celebrate an Anniversary at a restaurant aptly named to land any man on date-night in the dog house as; “ANGELINA”, but it was a really enjoyable experience! The service like paired wine, made it a delight, and the food was delectable! We went for the 10 course menu which, thinking back now, almost felt like a countdown to the tortellini with 10 y/o Parmesan and sea truffle that immediately threw us in a state of awe. The tomato & uni chicken wing, pistacchio & miso granola was a playful celebration of all its core ingredients, while the rest evenly gives you something to talk about. Admittedly, the Leek, Bagna Cauda & Bottarga wasn’t anything to shout about though everything else has clearly made up for it and more!

The presentation of each dish was a visual delight, but it was the dessert and its wine pairing that left an enduring impression.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. We went for the 10 courses with wine pairing & added the oysters during the meal. From the start it was perfect. We started with cocktails and snacks before enjoying course-after-course of absolutely delicious dishes, such as the farinata, gurnard & fennel milk, scallops, and tortelli. I usually find wine pairings hit and miss, but this was exceptionally well paired, and really elevated the whole experience. The team were incredibly friendly, fun, and welcoming, and really completed a fantastic birthday dinner. I couldn't recommend more for good food, just be prepared to part ways with your cold, hard cash (this set us back £200 pp).

Excellent tasting menu, super friendly staff with great atmosphere and decor. Overall I had a great experience, the price fairly reflected the quality of the food which can be hard to find around London. The Italian and Japanese fusion which was intriguing and well executed however some dishes missed the mark, but when you have 10 courses it happens. Sitting outside was cosy with the heaters and I cannot recommend this place enough.

We ordered the tasting menu Kaiseki of 10courses. We absolutely LOVED it. The flavors of most of the dishes are complex (in a good way), full of flavor but still kept the umami of the ingredients. The only one dish that I would say is my least favorite is the quail. To me the dish is not as flavorable and exciting as the others. Also I have to mention the waitress that served us for the night has amazing vibe, super friendly and helpful when we asked her to recommend drinks!

Wanted to come here about two years ago but it was pandemic and didn’t get the chance to come. Decided to try their tasting menu experience and been mind blowing on the food taste for this. Great staff experience the chef was explaining to us the dishes and felt like the master chef experience in the restaurant. Good selection mixture of the food with blended Japanese and Italian influence to this. Would recommend others to visit here for sure and do make your booking in advance for this.
