The restaurant itself is stunning, and the atmosphere is perfect. However, for a Gino restaurant, the food was quite disappointing.
As the waitress noticed one meal was left, she kindy removed this item from the bill. I would go here again, but not in a hurry.
What a fantastic find courtesy of our hotel! Kudos to the hostess for fitting in our family last minute for so we could eat. It was cold and rainy and our hotel restaurant turned us away.
We got seated immediately and our order came out quickly. We were amazed they were amenable to making a pizza our dairy-egg-nut allergy kids could eat. The veal Milanese was perfect and so was our none allergy kid’s crispy chicken. The peas and pancetta was delicious, as was the calamari. Wonderful meal, good atmosphere, and amazing service!
It is rare I write a review while in the middle of dining! Wonderful meal. From room decor to the culinary experience. All fab. Enjoyed some mocktails and amazing pizza. Check this lovely place out, especially if attending a show nearby
Such incredible staff and they have created such an amazing atmosphere. Fun but still very classy.
The food is perfection, nothing is too much trouble. The risotto is a particular favourite of ours.
We had such a great time at Gino's restaurant. The food was great and Thomas was such a good host. Definitely coming back again. Thanks Thomas for being so welcoming 🙏 see you soon xxx
I had the carbonara rissotto which was superb. Fantastic to see authentic ingredients used as well. Staff were very attentive, pouring more wine and water as we needed it but also gave us enough time and space to enjoy our meal - they struck the balance perfectly. Will most definitely come back!
The food was great and the staff were friendly. Service was quick and the atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed.
We shared olives and flatbread to start and both had a pasta dish which was delicious. The dessert sharer was the perfect way to try a few of the amazing desserts. I would definitely return.
I came here for lunch with my mom and she loved it so much that we came back the day after.
We were warmly welcomed at the entrance by a host who took our bags and coats and stored them in the cloakroom; after that, a waiter took us to our table and briefly introduced the menus.
Atmosphere is great - Italian songs in the background definitely a plus, my mum loved that - service is outstanding and staff is polite and knowledgeable.
Special thanks to Gianni and Riccardo for the recommendations: I am not gonna lie, as an Italian I was quite sceptical about the “Risotto Carbonara” but I really enjoyed it.
Really good food presentation as well - see pictures attached.
In general, the place is great, food portions are just fine (I do not understand the reviews complaining about that) as well as the prices (if you don’t want to spend money for good food, there’s plenty of fast foods in the area!) so I will definitely recommend it!

We went to have lunch.
We order a bottle of white wine,
2 starters and a ribeye to share.
As a dessert: the piato di dolci.
- tomato and basil bruschetta. Was average but the dough was fantastic. ( would be nice offer to the guests some spicy oil or with garlic)
- the arancini: literally average. But the red pepper sauce was good.
The ribeye, tbh was a little bit lacking on flavour.
The peppercorn sauce was my favourite, simple but really good.
The best is the panacotta. The best I ever tried.
I think if it’s a casual lunch is nice but not amazing. I was expecting more from Luciano.
Absolutely great place! Staff was very attentive and sweet. We were recommended a super tasty white wine from Toscana. Food was made quickly, very delicious for affordable price given how great this place is. Had a great Sunday dinner, would definitely come back (gotta try their seafood).
Wanted to book a restaurant as birthday treat for my wife prior to going to the theatre for the matinee performance of the Tina Turner musical at the Aldwych theatre and noticed that Luciano's was just across the road and knowing my wife is a great fan of Gino what could be better, so booked a table for lunch, so glad I did. As soon as we walked in a very attentive lady requested to look after my jacket while showing us to our table. This attention was shown throughout our stay by all the staff who always had a smile, we never felt rushed given ample time between courses and perhaps most importantly the food was excellent.
The restaurant itself has a great atmosphere I would definitely recommend
To Gino Giovanni and Team
We dined in the restaurant tonight and travelled from Australia. Wanted to say Big Thanks for a fantastic experience
From the time we were seated to the time we finished dessert the service and food were impeccable- 5 stars 🌟 👏
We ordered the sirloin with peppercorns, Penne with Salmon and fondant
Many thanks for the whole team at Luciano’s for an excellent birthday meal this weekend. From the moment we arrived we were met with with a warm friendly welcome. The staff were very attentive and served the food with perfect timing. Each course was flavourful, seasoned and cooked perfectly. The selection of wine offered was just right. Even with a busy restaurant, at no point did we feel pressured to leave the table. We will most certainly be returning to this restaurant! Once again many thanks, and we look forward to visiting again very soon.
A wonderful lunch to celebrate a special moment... elegant restaurant , absolutely delicious food and thanks to Gianni for his impeccable service
An amazing experience with the service, I remember that a waitress called Irma, I think, was really kind and cute with us she was incredible and the food and the ambient too. Definitely I will go back.
Very welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great service from Roland. The food and cocktails are to die for. I definitely recommend it to all my friends.
