Cecconi's Shoreditch: A stylish italian dining experience in the heart of London E2 7DP United Kingdom 

Nestled on the vibrant Redchurch Street in Shoreditch, London, Cecconi's offers a refined Italian dining experience that beautifully blends classic flavors with contemporary style. Known for its sophisticated yet cozy atmosphere, this restaurant serves up an enticing menu featuring wood-fired pizzas, fresh pasta, succulent meat dishes, and indulgent brunch staples. Whether you're seeking a leisurely breakfast, a relaxed lunch, or an elegant dinner, Cecconi's Shoreditch delights visitors with its excellent wine selection and tempting desserts like their renowned tiramisu.

Distinctive dining highlights and guest experiences

Guests frequently praise Cecconi's for its warm, attentive staff and stylish interior that creates an upscale yet inviting ambiance. The freshly baked focaccia bread is a crowd favorite, often cited as a must-try before your main meal arrives. Signature dishes like the truffle arancini and black truffle tagliolini showcase the kitchen’s dedication to Italian culinary tradition, though some diners find the truffle oil usage a little heavy-handed.

Service can vary, with busy evenings sometimes leading to slower attentiveness and difficulty securing extra drinks promptly.

Amazing surprise! I had a fantastic food and I would say the best tuna tartare in London. Very well presented. The staff beyond so friendly are very helpful and polite. Nice decor, cozy space and they have live music, but unfortunately I was leaving when they arrived. I will go back for sure. Highly recommend. It’s very affordable prices too.

Unfortunately, it seems as though this restaurant’s strive to make its food LOOK as aesthetically pleasing as possible resulted in its flavours being subpar, akin to those of a university student trying to make their first meal away from home. My first dish made away from home certainly did better than this.

Our waiter did bear with us whilst our party arrived at staggered times, which did take quite a while but his attentiveness did not falter. He made sure to top up our water throughout and ask if we had a preference to order drinks whilst we waited.

There was a minimal wait before the starters arrived. The starters were pleasant, my party of 8 people opted to share the following: zucchini fritti with lemon aioli (which came with the calamari too), calamari, truffle arancini and focaccia with extra virgin olive oil. These starters were an enjoyable part of the anticipation of our main dishes.

I ordered the black truffle tagliolini as I am a fan of anything and everything with truffle. To a hungry mind, anything can be described as revolutionaraliy delicious but the starters had already prepared me to make a nuanced decision about the quality of this dish. Perhaps al dente was taken too literally as the tagliolini was rather tough, still clumped together making for a bunch of stodgy mouthfuls of pasta. The word “drizzle” or “moderate serving” of truffle oil and butter could also be better explained to chefs in practice as not only my plate and pasta was drenched, but every mouthful would leave my mouth coated with abundant layers of oil. Truffle oil is delicious, but not when it is used in this manner.

I did manage to finish the dish surprisingly, with a side of fries topped with truffle and a very minimal helping of parmesan - this was  a far more enjoyable truffle dish.

Oddly enough, Cecconi’s desserts proved better than their mains. The tiramisu posed delicious sponge fingers which a mellow mascarpone filling topped with cocoa, a thorough delight. Their cheesecake with a berry compote definitely impressed, the biscuit base retained a pleasant tough texture that was not too soft and crumbly nor too hard. The cream cheese and berry compote had a lovely, balanced sweet taste. The desserts saved the meal from being rated even lower.

Perhaps it was high expectations as a Soho House restaurant and misleading pictures on the internet, but I do not think another visit is in my future plans. Name, titles, feigned aesthetics will only get you so far even with good service from staff.

A lovely spot tucked away off the busy Shoreditch streets. Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive the decor was a nice upscale casual and the food was delicious. That Focaccia they give you is 1000/10 so be warned so you don't fill up on it before your food arrives.

I understand a Friday night is a busy night, so food and service can be slower, but in this case it was just bad service. We had to wait 10 min for our booked table (which okay is not terrible), but it was particularly annoying because it then took so long before we could get anyone to come to us, even for tap water. Our waiter appeared finally, clearly pressed for time, we managed to quickly order. Our cocktails ended up arriving after our starters, and still no sign of table water until we flagged down the waiter once more for it. I know I'm sounding snobbish, but at 60 pounds a head I expect SUPERB service. We weren't checked back on even once the whole meal, and had someone join us at the table towards the end, and they weren't offered a drink or anything at all. The service can be summed up in "they took our order, delivered our food and took our payment", which is one step above a McDonalds, where you order the food yourself (and honestly I would have preferred it that way). Again, we could have called up a waiter, perhaps yanked them by the arm and not letting go as they run past, flailing around trying to cater to many tables more than they can handle each. We figured it would have taken 30 minutes to get any second drinks so we gave up and settled the bill. Super mid. On top of that, the food was not great, and I know that's personal, but pasta was overcooked, and at 26 pounds for a plate of pasta, I expect the best pasta of my life. The place is cool inside and has good atmosphere, but it is very loud. Yes I know, I'm outraging the management right now because they can't do much about the noise, but it doesn't make it any less real.

The food was unfortunately not worth the hype - we only had 2 plates so we maybe ordered the wrong food. We had a 4 cheese pizza which was really good but the pasta was less attractive
