• Italian • Maida Vale

Maida Vale has a relaxed, neighbourly vibe, so it’s no surprise to find Red Pepper here among the stuccoed houses and well tended gardens. With its buzzy, bistro feel, this restaurant has stood the test of time, serving Londoners good food since 1994 (a lifetime in restaurant terms). Many locals, some of them good cooks and cookery writers, regard Red Pepper as their home away from home. The authentic pizza, cooked in a wood-fired oven, is just one reason diners keep coming back; another is the friendly welcome which greets them. Cosy and informal, Red Pepper invites you to enjoy delicious homemade pasta, grills, and fresh seafood from all over Italy including the forgotten regions of Sardinia and Campania.

A popular restaurant, our 1st time as a family trying hotpot, where you have a hot broth in the middle of the table and order platters of meat & veg to cook in it. Very fun as a family activity and great place to bring picky teenagers. Staff checked in regularly to ensure we had everything we needed or if we wanted to order more. There is a strong smell of lamb throughout the restaurant that took 2 days to air out of my jacket, also the floor was wet by the end of the evening from the steam from all the hotpots, even though the staff was doing its best to mitigate, so take care when walking.
