Hidden away in a carpark off Brick Lane, this is nice non-chain place. Brightly lit, nice decor. Good food, reasonably priced with very nice staff. Would go again. More

We often want to eat in the vicinity of Liverpool St but previously haven't made it past all the standard outlets in Spitalfields. Friends told us about Al Volo and we've tried it twice now - really impressed. Excellent pasta dishes and friendly efficient but non-intrusive service. 4 mains, 4 coffees & a bottle of wine £60.

We ate here last week and the food was amazing. Nothing too fancy just simple and delicious. They make their own pasta and it shows. The place has quite a funky vibe and sits perfectly within the Brick Lane scene. We're going back next week! More

Al Valo is the place to go for true and authentic Pizza lunch in the Shoreditch/Spitalfields area (in my honest opinon). The have a lunch deal at the moment (Summer/Autumn 09): Any pizza or pasta + a glass of wine, beer or soft drink for around 8 pound. Their pastas on the other hand isnt that interesting. + (positive): Great... More
