La Saporita - Islington

My daughter and I recently visited this restaurant in the area after hearing good reviews and with the help of our Tastecard. Despite the lack of recent reviews, we decided to give it a try and we were not disappointed. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted warmly by Francesco who provided excellent service. The food was delicious, starting with sardines and arancini, followed by gnocchi and pizza, and finishing with tiramisù and caffè affogato. It was all well-presented and flavorful, with the added bonus of having Italian chefs in the kitchen. The value for the money, especially with the Tastecard, was exceptional and we would definitely return if we lived closer. Francesco's service truly made our experience memorable and we highly recommend this restaurant.

My daughter found this little gem. The main waiter, Francesco, is delightful and nothing was touch trouble for him. He was busy but managed to cope with everyone. My risotto was perfect and the pizzas were declared magnificent.

Lovely authentic local Italian. Amazing thin crust pizza. An oasis from busy central London and normal prices! Francesco our waiter made us feel very welcome.

Food was absolutely stunning. The chicken with mushroom sauce was stunning. Camembert cheese sticks aw wow. Honestly 1 of the best I’ve tried. Francesca the waiter what a lovely polite man. Would highly recommend this place not a problem.

Excellent service and close to Finsbury Park station and the Park Theatre. The food and service were both excellent and I can see why many local Italians eat there. It was also excellent value.
