La Pasta

Ideal for a quick bite!
The decor in here is almost like a burger bar with fixed booths which makes it a little impersonal.
The menu was pretty extensive with plenty of choice.
The service was efficient and speedy which was great as we were going to a gig over the road.
All the food was delicious.
The study drinks came out tepid and I think they should at least offer ice and a slice
Would definitely recommend it for an easy meal, but don't expect an attention to detail

Have popped in here a few times now and quality is very reliable. The restaurant is right next to Highbury and Islington station and close to Highbury Fields park, so very convenient. It has the feel of a real Italian family restaurant with authentic dishes. Very familiar friendly as well!
The pizza base is a little bit bland, very crispy and fluffy with delicious toppings, trypical Italian style pizza! The pasta dishes I've tried were all fantastic. Prices are very good, especially for the area.
Service has always been friendly, but a little slow and not very attentive.
Great little restaurant in a convenient location!

I walked past here and saw the 2 course menu deal which was fairly priced so decided to come in for dinner with my niece.

The staff were lovely and polite but I was mildly impressed with my food, the garlic bread was burnt at the sides and my penne arrabbiata was slightly undercooked. My niece enjoyed her Scampi dish which she chose for starters but did not finish her Spaghetti Carbonara - on the menu it stated "crispy pieces of bacon" but it looked and tasted more like floppy ham.

It was ok as we were in a rush and wanted a quick bite to eat but you do get what you pay for.

A fun and relaxed little place with a warm, friendly atmosphere, but with character too. I ordered a mushroom pizza with extras of sun-dried tomato and Gorgonzola. The manager/chef (or whoever) is a great guy, and I was impressed to actually taste Gorgonzola throughout my pizza, as usually places are so tight these days. And the pizza had some splendid charring and crispiness, delicious! I'll definitely be back here again.

Just finished our a long walk from the emirates stadium and thought “I could kill for some good grub right now”. We were greeted by two friendly dudes. We ordered starters, expecting a moist, succulent load of calamari. To my suprise, we got a plate full of plants with bits of dry bone (I assume these were the calarmis). The pizza was more burnt to smithereens. Overall
Not my favourite experience

Ordered brussetta and the bread was rock hard and there was no flavour to it. Cut my gums. Then ordered a margarita pizza which was awful. When I sent it back I could here the staff say I don't care. No wonder they always look empty. This is not authentic Italian food. My friends pasta looked well over cooked old, not fresh at all.
Give this place a wide birth!! No customer service!!

Good food at a good price (set menu). The customer service here is excellent, manager was very attentive and welcoming, throughly enjoyed our evening here.

Service was good and the place was fine but the food really wasn't up to scratch, my pizza was below par and my partners pasta dish was just bad. I would go elsewhere.
