The Italian Greyhound

Loved this place! Great changes since the
previous version of the restaurant on this site.
Staff were incredible and very attentive. Despite the venue being very busy, you still felt like you were the only one in the venue when it came to attention by
the staff.
The décor and ambience was relaxing, tasteful and incredibly comfortable.
The menu was fantastic! Very simple and not overloaded as some Italian restaurants can be. It tasted very authentic and hit the spot in every way so compliments to the kitchen and menu curators
I’d say one of the best Italian restaurants in the area
I would highly recommend this venue if you’re in the area.

Absolutely delicious contemporary Italian food. We were a group of six so ordered a range of dishes to share. All were outstanding. In every dish the quality of the ingredients really stood out - from super fresh seasonal fruit and vegetables to fantastic burrata and mortadalla.

Highly recommend the ravioli cacio e pepe with black truffle, crab linguine, and mortadella, stracciatella cheese, pistachio pesto pizza.

A wonderful surprise was that they also make an awesome margarita, so do check out their cocktails too. Super central London location just off Marble Arch and Oxford Street, yet on a calm and quiet street. Will definitely be back to the Italian Greyhound again soon.

I was DJ for a private Wedding reception here last week. I had the pleasure of tasting the food which was delicious - crab linguine with a side of longstem broccoli. The staff worked well under pressure - there was a lot to prepare for the guests but they still had time to help me and let me know all the important cues I needed to help me provide my service. I gave 4 stars because I wasn't able to use my own speakers to DJ which meant it was hard for me to hear during my mix because I was in an alcove. I also could not see the guests for the vast majority of my set and this is another thing I'd have like to have changed to allow for a better experience. Other than this, I really enjoyed the evening so thank you.

At The Italian Greyhound every essence was so well considered! From the delicious cocktails and wines to the wonderfully welcoming service and relaxing atmosphere, you feel comfortable and well catered for. Not to mention THE FOOD: its simplicity and high-quality = Italian food done right. Will be running back for those arancini.

Surprisingly excellent food, I didn’t expect much when I went here for dinner but the restaurant definitely delivered on serving up delicious Italian dishes.

I recommend the Ravioli Cacio e Pepe with black truffle, Native Breed Rib Eye, and the Roasted Hake with King Prawn Risotto. The portions were good and you can definitely order a few dishes to share.

We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and I’m happy I got to try The Italian Greyhound. It’s underrated and I recommend you dine here if you’re looking for a no-frills Italian feast with family or friends.

The food we had there was just ok.
From the best to the worst
1. Tortelli (those little dumplings) delicious, tender, perfectly cooked
2. Steak cooked as ordered with nice salsa on top but chickpea chips not so good.
3. Focacia
4. Chocolate cake - too sweet.
For this price i expected something more.

Our company organised our annual Christmas gathering here recently.

All the dishes were pre-ordered for us, comprised of a nice balance of shared plates. Most were good (not outstanding), but my stand-out favourites were the arancini and foccacia bread.

The restaurant's ambience was spacey, chic, and relaxed, with pleasant buzz of background chatter.

Service from the staff is jovial, informal, and responsive, interacting with an upbeat banter.

Overall, Italian Greyhound provided our company with the perfect environment for our gathering.

Excellent Italian, the truffle mushroom pizza is amazing. The ravioli is delicious. The crab linguine was yum. I wouldn't recommend the aubergine parmigiana bake, it was overwhelmed by the tomato. The risotto was out of this world! Service is very good. Highly recommended.
