Few yards from the spectacular spitafiled Market in London, found this italian restaurant, fantastico for ambience and especially for Food. Service was great, very nice and very professional. I had one of the best focaccia with rosmarine and a plateau of charcuteries and cheeses, ask the ricotta salata is out of the menu and it was very good. The meat... More

Unlike many places in the area, La Pietra offers good food at fair prices. The food contains fresh market ingredients and it deserves its own respect. The location and atmosphere is also calm and pleasant especially when one wants to enjoy one's meal at a slower pace. There are a mix of ages that come to this restaurant including families... More

Went here recently and was blown away with the food. Serves the best pizza in London without a doubt. The service was friendly and helpful but not in your face. Definitelty going back.

A group of 6 of us went here because of the reviews on this site, and I have to say we had a completely different experience. It was our friends birthday and we had NO service. We had to serve our own wine, ask for extra water, salt, pepper, napkins several times. Whenever the waiter and waitress caught us pouring... More

Visisted last night and so impressed. Food was delicious and generous portion sizes. Staff were really friendly but not overbearing and wine really reasonably priced. We visited on a special offer deal but the quality of food and service was first class

We were invited to go to La Pietra by my Step Son and his Girlfriend for Easter Sunday. As it was last minute booking we were expecting the place to be busy especially as it is next to Spitalfield Market. To our surprise it wasn’t, and this could be due to location. However this is the most delicious Italian I... More

The restaurant is just slightly off the beaten track and it's a shame they're less likely to get as much passing trade as some lesser restaurants in the busier Spitalfield market area. Well worth the visit, we had a really nice meal. Staff were friendly and helpful, the room is warm and welcoming, starters delicious and pizza fresh, thin and... More
