I bought a portion of Tortelloni Spinach and Ricotta for take-away which were rally good, with a tasty and fresh filling. Packaging is great as well. It is rather expensive though.

Wowsers. When I heard this place did good pasta they were not wrong. Upon seeing it listed, I immediately ordered the Black Squid Ink ravioli from the menu.

Have to admit my disappointment about the portion as I often have huge appetite but for the quality you get it will leave you craving for more. The pasta was perfectly cooked with a creaminess inside and firm texture that was all binded together with a simple tomato garlic based sauce. I nearly wanted to shed a tear the meal was over so quickly as I (tried) to savour the dish.

A great authentic homemade type of meal in a great location that is quaint and light. I also took away some pasta to eat at home and cook. It has reminded me of my fondness and love of simple Italian food and actually made me want to cook more of it as I know it is so simple to do if like many things done right.

This place is slightly out of the way to get to in Shoreditch, but worth making the trek to get the freshest pasta. It's certainly faster and cheaper than going all the way to Italy, and it doesn't get any more authentic and fresh than here. This place is tiny, and doesn't have more than 6-8 tables, so get here early when they open if you want to get a seat, or make a reservation in advance. It's also not great for big groups so come with a party of 2-4 people. You can watch them make pasta up at the front, and you can buy some to take home.

The buratta here is one of the best I've ever had - creamy, soft and just perfect - best shared with 2-4 people. It also comes with some thin crackers but not bread, so if you want bread, you'll have to order that separately. I ate the whole thing by myself along with a serving pasta only because I wanted to try the burrata - it was perfection.

They usually have 5 different varieties of pasta and they range from £11-13; the portions are quite small so if you're starving or have a big appetite, you can probably eat two. It's nice to be able to try different kinds of pasta and sauces if you come with multiple people, and share the dishes. I think the ones that have sauces that are more simple are better than the ones that have a lot more ingredients. Simple is better when it comes to pasta.

The menu changes very frequently with what is fresh, but this is what I had when I went:

- Tajarin with courgettes (zucchini), mullet roe and mint - This was probably my least favorite of the pastas, I just think there was too much going on with the roe and mint. I think I just prefer Italian pastas with tomato sauce.
- Strozzaperti with pesto of sundried tomatoes, almonds, ricotta, capers and oregano - This one was one of my favorites - traditional ingredients and a delicious sauce. 
- Agnolotti Cavour - These are raviolis filled with beef, pork, and spinach, in a butter and sage sauce - I liked these and got it once by myself and then once to share with 2 other people. I liked sharing this better than having to eat the whole thing solo, as I found I started getting tired of eating this by myself. It's good, but the butter/sage sauce is fairly mild and the portion of ravioli is a bit on the small side. This is usually always on their menu, as it's one of their signature dishes.

All in all, the pasta is super fresh and as authentic as if you had gone to Italy, the place is small and cozy, and the sauces and pastas are interesting. The quantity is a bit on the smaller side and the prices are a bit high, but you're paying for quality over quantity. I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for good pasta - I prefer the pasta here over Padella.

I'd recommend dining elsewhere. If you have any kind of mixup with your reservation, you will be treated terribly by the owner. I had to cancel due to an unavoidable issue with the other members in my group. I offered to switch to another date or was just hoping to meet in the middle somewhere. Instead I was yelled at over the phone, not able to even get in a word. I couldn't believe my ears. The owner really doesn't seem to show any care or concern for her customers as people; sees us only as money.

Was lost walking in Shoreditch and found this place. Really amazing quality fresh pasta. Beautiful decor and wonderful staff. Can't wait to go back.

White minimalist decor. Simple fresh dishes. Exceptional black truffle pasta and anchovies starter. This place makes me wish that I had a kitchen to cook up the fresh pastas they were making in the front.

This is a restaurant I have been going to on a very regular basis and has always managed to awe my palate. It is also arguably the best Italian restaurant in London.

The starters (which are the only permanent items in the menu), by themselves make a visit to Burro e Salvia worthwhile. I strongly recommend to try the Burrata e Caponata. The creaminess of the former is beautifully complemented by the sweetness of the latter. 

Regarding the main course, there is usually a choice of five different pasta dishes that are regularly changed. I am happy to be corrected, but most of their recipes seem to be from northern Italy (Bologna and/or Firenze). As it is the case with genuine Italian food, it is the quality of the ingredients rather than the complexity of the preparation that makes them so good. They are particularly good at playing with textures and contrasts.

Finally, although the choice is limited, one can indulge with one of their desert. Although I tend to think that the Italian cuisine is not best represented by this course, Burro e Salvia excels at proving me wrong.

The service is efficient and the waitress (who are Italians of course) are very helpful in case you struggle with the menu. 

The decoration is minimalistic -too much so- some might argue, but is well conceived.

To sum up, this is one of the best restaurant in its price range and I would recommend it to anybody seeking a casual but authentic cuisine (however it is not fit for a business lunch)

Excellent food. Not sure what else could I say other than the pasta will literally amaze you... Note that there are only like 6-8 seats in the whole restaurant so do book a table if you intend to try this place.

A cute little shop selling freshly made pasta.  Went there with a friend working around Liverpool Street for a quick lunch.  There is a small dining area - bright woody and sleek, very scandinavian and serene.  Good for a quiet conversation with an old friend or just relaxing on your own.  The lunch menu is simple, with around 6 choices of pasta, a few starters and desserts.  I had the tajarin, ragu di salsiccia di bra (a pasta with a ragu made from sausages).  Prices are very reasonable, portions are light but very tasty.  Pasta cooked to the perfect texture.  They also sell freshly made pasta which look delicious.  Not bad to pick up some after work for a quick cooking at home.  They also seem to hold regular evening events and workshops.  Will definitely check it out again.

I recommend for starters the prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella so delicious top-quality melts in your mouth. For main dish I had a delicious ravioli filled with pork in a unique pork broth. Yes I happily paid the extra 1BP for parmesan cheese. I rather pay 1BP to get top-quality rather than a free tastless cheese. I can tell the owner is very particular, carefully chooses quality ingredients and wants to please.
