Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were celebrating my husband's 65th birthday, by going to an exhibition at Tate Britain, and wanted to have dinner afterwards, somewhere close by.  After a bit of Googling, I found Osterelia Dell Angelo, which had excellent reviews.  I did call them to check if...I needed to book, and they suggested it wasn't vital, but would be a good idea, so I did.  The person I spoke to was  charming, and I did mention it was my husband's birthday.  After the exhibition, we arrived a few minutes late, and we immediately liked the look of the place, and all the staff we dealt with were absolutely lovely. Small details impressed us, such as the linen tablecloth and napkins,  fresh flowers, candles and comfortable seats.  The menu is limited,, but we like that because it shows that the food is probably prepared properly.  We I chose a cocktail and a Peroni, to drink while we were choosing our food, and my cocktail was a delicious Rossini.  I decided to go for a starter and dessert,  because I don't have a huge appetite.  I went for the burrata with oyster mushrooms and pistachios, and my husband's main course was the monkfish with leeks.  We also had sides of rosemary, roast potatoes, and the marinated beetroot.  We chose a Sicilian organic wine to go with our meal, with our food and it seemed very reasonably priced at £28.  They also brought four types of complimentary bread with olive oil, and an amuse bouche of deep - fried pizza dough with sauce. The portions were generousand beautifully presented, as well as delicious.  The highlight of our evening, however, was that when they brought my dessert of tiramisu, which we shared, they had put candle in it, and had written "Happy Birthday" around the plate.  The waiter even sang Happy Birthday, which was really sweet, and very much appreciated!  Everything about the evening was lovely, and even the toilets were stylish and immaculate. Whilst visiting them, we discovered a really nice private, dining room downstairs, which I can imagine would be a lovely venue for big, family party, or some such thing.  We were actually pleasantly surprised by the size of the bill, which even including 12.5% service, was less than £130 pounds, considering we had coffee and tea afterwards as well.  For the quality of the food in that part of London, it seemed extraordinarily good value.  We would certainly go again, and can't recommend it highly enough!More

My first time here and very impressed. The food was incredible and the staff was superb. 5 star service. Polite, attentive and caring. Of course, I am a pretty easy customer and thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I started with the polenta in a mushroom sauce...and the main course was the housemade pasta with a zucchini/crab sauce. I walked across the bridge from my hotel and was so happy that I found this charming spot. I will definitely return on my many visits to London and hope to experience the same level of cuisine and service. The service was so good, that I left extra gratuity for the staff. They work very hard to make you feel welcome. Thank you.More

Food was very expensive for the portions provided. Very poor service - manager was rude and disrespectful. I had to miss a couple previous reservations due to flight delays, and the manager challenged me sarcastically in front of other guests (before I was even seated)...why I had not showed up.More

We were 3 couples in our 50s. We had an excellent time. The staff was all very welcoming, friendly, and efficient in their tasks. We ordered multiple appetizers and they were all very good. We also all ordered a different entree, and everyone was very...happy. Everything was delicious. We also enjoyed 2 different and both very good Italian wines that were perfect with them meal. I would highly recommend this restaurant for good Italian in London. We will definitely go back in the future.More

We had booked a table for four which was lucky as the restaurant became completely full on a summer’s midweek lunchtime. There was a bite of something each and some bread to start and we then received our mains. I had the crab and courgette...pasta which was superb. The pasta was obviously home made and had an interesting texture. The sauce was perfectly seasoned and tasted delicious. For pudding I had the cheesecake and ice cream which was nicely presented and also tasted great. Service was attentive and friendly. I will definitely go back.More

The service was polite but not incredibly knowledgable and the food was good but not exciting. And for a Friday night a very quiet place though that may be due more to the fact that it was a bank holiday weekend. Still we had a...nice time and the desserts were good.More

After a tour of the Houses of Parliament I had booked 13 out of 22 in for lunch. More were coming but as the group was classed as a `Group Booking' the menus was more expensive. We are all pensioners frugal with out money especially...with the current Cost of Living Crisis. We had a mixture of different bread and oil, plus a complimentary bite-size from the chef. Everyone was enjoying their choice, one start was tough but this quickly got changed for another one. Then the bill arrived. On the table for 9, although the bill had the figure 9 at the top, when I collected in all the money from everyone I was left with a fist full of notes. So we checked the bill and found that we had only been charged for 7 meals instead of 9. I took the bill back to our waiter and I think the manager came to sort this out. This was saving the restaurant over £60. I then suggested as a good will gesture that we all have a complimentary coffee. I was told only 1 or 2 coffees could be served. Perhaps I should have requested 9 teas as a cheaper option, but equally the manager could have suggested that. This did put a damper on our experience especially when we realised that we didn't even get so much as a verbal thank you. So after a lovely lunch we left disappointed and I changed what my review would have been 'excellent' to `average'.More

Oh, I love this place. The staff always give a warm welcome and suddenly you're transported from Westminster to Italy. The food and service are consistently good, with a terrific range of specials and a wonderful Italian cheeseboard to end the meal. Sometimes I've had...a quick, light business lunch. Sometimes it's a special meal in the room downstairs. Sometimes - as this week - just an informal dinner with an old, wise friend. It's that kind of place - it blends itself around the mood you are in. And, as I say, it's pretty special.More

We arrived here with 80 minutes before a concert in Smith Square. The staff got us through 2 courses in time but required a lot of prompting which was surprising as we were the only diners there for much of the time. They were were...not particularly friendly and the food is good rather than excellent. Ravioli was tasty but could have been hotter while the semifreddo parfait was rather bland. Overall we enjoyed the meal that worked out at about £37 each (including service) for 2 courses but it is on the expensive side.More

After a day at a conference, my wife and I were looking for a convenient place to eat and we came across Osteria Dell'Angolo We were impressed with the decor, the service and the menu! Even the mango juice was very good indeed! The helpful...waiter explained the additional menu items and I went for the Fritto Misto, which was the dish of the day - with whitebait, calamari rings and large prawns - delicious! My wife went for the pappardella (large flat Tuscan pasta) with lamb (so says the bill - though the menu on the website does not mention it). Definitely recommended!More

Abbey sit adjacent at a corner of Parliament Square,
and a short stroll along The Mall leads to Buckingham

Brian is correct in saying food is cooked to order. So it maybe worth changing your booking to 5.30 to avoid being rushed.
