I loved the ambience of this place. We sat near the window, so we had the outside air. The food was excellent, and the service was good.

Sister restaurant of Osteria Basilico but not quite as good. Good option if the other is fully booked though. Overall, the service and quality of food was decent. A good casual restaurant if you are in the area.
The spaghetti with lobster had generous chunks of lobster meat and the fresh hand made papperdelle had a great light and chewy texture.

Fabulous!  The food was delicious.  Very friendly too. Our waitress was Frederica.  The beef dish was very tender.  The pasta dish with mushrooms had the smoothest sauce.  Forgot to take a photo of dessert but it was the chocolate cake with ice cream. One of the best for sure.  Will save for my next visit!

Wandering around first night in London with no sleep for 36 hours we happened on M. Can't wait to come back. Everything was to perfection.

I went here on a lark and didn't now a thing about it but I was sincerely impressed.  I looked very critically with my GF and we really could find a single thing wrong with it.   It's one of these places where everyone that works there is Italian and the recipes are from grandma.  I had a simple but mind blowing tagliatelle with veal ragu and it was just perfect.  Please go there and get that; you deserve it.   

Service was really good and atmosphere was cozy and lively at the same time.

I am shocked this place only has one review ... but the fact that the reviewer gives 3 stars after such glowing commentary is the greater sin.

I just traveled through Florence and Rome and can tell you the meal I shared with my colleague was one of the best I have ever had ... of any cuisine ... 

Our two apps were wonderful ... and the pumpkin ravioli was delish.  We also tried a fettucine with porcetta in demiglaze that was memorable and delicious.

This is owned by the same folks that own Basilica ... which was packed so we were referred down the street ... can't wait to try Basilica!!!!

A favorite amongst locals, Meditteraneo serves unfussy good Italian food at reasonable prices. I like the laid back atmosphere and the decoration that really conveys that light and lively spirit of the Mediterranean. The service is friendly and in general good, and one thing I love is they serve your table a basket of warm bread, which is always welcomed when you are starving and waiting for your food. The pastas are to die for, I went with a couple of friends, we ordered different dishes and these just went around the table till we where using the bread to scrape off the remains of the sauces. We also had a hefty amount of wine; they have a great selection we chose bottles of Chianti. I strongly suggest you book ahead only because its so popular it does get pretty busy.

It's a decent neighborhood place and inferior to Osteria Basilico.  Doesn't hold a candle to the nearby Assagi or other great London Italians Enoteca Turi, Osteria dell'Arrancio, and Scalini.  

Highlights were the Burrata and Orata.

It's a good, steady, Italian restaurant. The food is good, the atmosphere is good, the service is good.


 Pasta dishes are £10-15, then maybe a bit more for meat and fish dishes.


 The one thing that is a bit annoying is that (on Saturday night at least), they have rigid 'sittings', so they'll ask you if you want 7:30 or 9:30 and if you go for 7:30, you'll be fairly well swept from your table at 9:30.
