Really Enjoyed our meal here. The food was traditional. Waiters knew a lot about the menu and could explain and suggest different options without hesitation. Considering the drinks menu was huge it was impressive to see their knowledge. Definitely would go back

We thoroughly enjoyed the dinner at Il Solito Posto. Much has changed, for the better, since we last visited four years ago. The food is as good as before, the venue is now more vibrant and offers better value. The wine selection is interesting and attractive. Would highly recommend this
