Be the first to ReplyA soft 5, but the highs were high enough to balance the few
A soft 5, but the highs were high enough to balance the few things I didn't love. It's perpetually busy, even 2-3PM on a Sunday. Teetering on the edge of cramped but not quite there. Open kitchens and god bless them all because I couldn't do it. Service on point throughout. The food. Lumache. The green pasta. It doesn't just photograph well but was a genuinely great pasta. The pasta itself just melted away. Amazing. Strozzapreti. The obligatory cacio e pepe. But with crab! Cer tasted it as "too fishy" but I thought it was rather flat. Pasta again good but not the same heights as the lumache. Apologies. We also had the pheasant. Not the main but the occasionally available app. Yeah, the one with the claw sticking out. Besides the claw it was like a pheasant schnitzel. No idea how they do that but so so good. Not just for show. We also had fried sprouts. Too creamy for me, lost the joy of frying by drowning the crisp. Balance please. Oh god and the pink fir potatoes. Just get them. Maybe two orders. Bonus for 500ml wine options, it's perfect for me. And, er, my wife.
Be the first to ReplyWe sat at the bar and watched them cook.
It was like watching an episode of "the bear". Yes chef. It was a definitely a bit warm, but a fun experience until we got a live tapeworm in the fish we got. Of course that was taken off our bill and they comped our dessert. But honestly felt quite grossed out and didn't want to eat anything else at that point. I think the whole meal should have probably been comped for that grave of an error, but whatever. They clearly need some quality control for selecting seafood/meat, so if you're planning on going maybe stay away from the fish.

I've had the best mussel in my life here. The sauce is so flavorful but tbh it was a bit salty so the bread soaked in the bottom is rather inedible. Just try everything they can order tbh everything is try My server was yawning while speaking to us so it made us feel so unwelcome. Anyways the food is good so still worth a go
Be the first to ReplyNOTE my rating is actually 3.
6/5! Not to be over dramatic but I wanted to warn other people who consulted online food critique blogs too. I saw reviews showing pictures of pig snout and then came here to learn it's not on the menu. And pig tail Ragu- also not on menu. Nothing on the menu even pointed to use of anything out of the ordinary... or our server didn't really suggest any alternatives close to what I was looking for. I'm an adventurous eater and was very curious about the texture of these parts so I was dismayed that this was going to be an ordinary Italian dining experience. Also- the reviews I read were this year too so it wasn't like it's ancient history. Their website says nose to tail cooking too but it's never really marketed again in the menu. And if they do use nose to tail (server didn't really talk about this at all), I would've liked to see them showcase the different textures/flavours as opposed to masking them.I'll put that aside for this review, because to be fair I could've just looked at the menu online and quickly learn that none of the things I was looking for were here. Some context, I went with a group of 6 people and we did family style with all the dishes. A common theme across all dishes is that the presentation was a bit lacklustre. The focaccia was pretty good, it had a nice crust and super soft interior. The olive oil paired with it had a nice flavour to it. Surprisingly, the greens were great?? I say this as a meat lover. My favourite were the Brussels sprouts. Every pasta dish I had the pasta noodles were all over cooked- you do need them to be al dente to give it a bit of chew and to capture the sauces nicely. Else it just feels like a mouthful of mush. If you want to do family style, I think the pasta dishes might be a bit too small for that- we were a group of 6 and we ordered 3 plates. We only had one pasta noodle each, which for us was fine because it allowed us to sample a little bit of everything without stuffing ourselves with carbs.We had John Dory, Yorkshire pheasant, porchetta for our mains. John Dory was good, nothing special though. Yorkshire pheasant was tender and it had nice crispy skin. Well seasoned. The porchetta- I was disappointed with. It was over cooked in my opinion- meat was a bit chewy yet the skin wasn't crispy. Crispy skin is the best part!
Be the first to ReplyI'm giving it five stars for the food.
Incredible. Deer shoulder that melted in mouth. Pork ragout that was tremendous. Homemade ricotta and great bread. Excellent desserts. Really good wine list including Mexican wines from Baja and on-tap wines that really impressed. The ambiance was great, with the open kitchen creating a very cool vibe.Service was awful. Waited two hours for main course. The wait was worth it and the staff moved in to help our poor waiter struggling through his first day. I can accept this kind of crap now. The entire world faces service issues thanks to scarce labor. Including my company. So I try to focus on the overall product. This place has it. Well worth the visit. And it ain't in SoHo. Lol. Not even.

I came here with a friend last minute and we overall were happy with our visit.The vibe is immaculate - super cool and trendy but not stuffy. The sort of place you can go with friends, coworkers, a date, even solo. It was super buzzy and busy throughout our visit.We got a cheap bottle of wine (around £30) which was good but we poured it ourselves throughout the meal. We split a bunch of small plates; all were good, but the two that were most impressed by were both the cheapest and the most filling: the kale pasta and the side of potatoes. Other things were a bit frustrating for it being a nice restaurant, like having to flag down a server for the check and the bathroom being in a weird and difficult-to-find area of the restaurant.With that said, it was very good and our total bill with drinks and a filling meal was under £40 pp. I would definitely recommend and return.

My partner and I visited Manteca on Oct 10th, 2022 and we were blown away by the exceptional food, wine and service. We especially enjoyed the duck liver parfait, the middle white pork chop (the meat and fat melts in your mouth) and the beef fat fudge *chefs kiss* It's noisy and buzzy, and seating is very close together, which is why I highly recommend this spot for a romantic date night!
Be the first to ReplyNEXT! Don't come here! This restaurant seems like it almost
NEXT! Don't come here! This restaurant seems like it almost made it. It could be a Michelin star but the problem is the staff. The food is "good" not amazing but a solid good. The service is terrible. They're checked out. Each wait staff seems to he more concerned with their experience of the night.Our first entrees were great. ( A little too much salt but fair). With that said, they forgot our entrees. Actually they gave them to the table next to us. No one noticed till I asked if that was the duck pasta. And the table said, no, its the meat. At that point the bartender realized it was the wrong entree. ( Don't worry if anyone is allergic, forget that thought). Okay, things happen... where is our entrees ... never to be found. We left with no main course. Did they pay for the meal? No!?! Did they charge us and take off the two drinks .. totally not enough.If you want to go to a restaurant and compete with the vibe of being "cool." And have a service staff that is concerned with their vibe. This is it. The food is not the "star" here.
Be the first to ReplyFortunate to be seated at opening bell, place filled
Fortunate to be seated at opening bell, place filled instantly, but the attention to our meal did not wane. Every bite was unique and outstanding.....luxurious!! My best meal in town.
Be the first to ReplyWonderful food and service.
We loved all the housemade salumi, pasta and pork chop. Our only issue was that it's a bit of a long walk from the nearest tube station at Old Street.
Be the first to ReplyThis place was phenomenal.
The food and drinks were homemade, fresh, delicious and the service was amazing. My husband and I hope to come back the next time we are in London!
Be the first to ReplyThis place was amazing.
It was our favorite place that we ate at while in London. Everything we ordered was incredible. Highly recommend the focaccia bread, meat platter, and cacio e Pepe (not on the menu but always available!). Definitely going to come back to Manteca whenever I am in London.
Be the first to ReplyReally delicious! The sweetcorn ravioli and sirloin steak
Really delicious! The sweetcorn ravioli and sirloin steak was a highlight. Didn't have a chance to try the dessertsServers are friendly and recommended loads of dishes.They say you should pick around 5-6 dishes between 2 people. I felt that seems about right. Seats are a little bunched up so getting up and moving around can be a little cramped.Overall would go back
