Ave Mario London Reviews
Amazing food and decor. Hit and miss service
Was excited to try this place after seeing online. Food did not disappoint! All 4 of us in our group was so impressed at the taste of each of our dishes and the focaccia bread also. Service however hit and miss. The gentleman who showed us to our sea
Great food and atmosphere!
Excellent! We made reservations for dinner and wound up arriving a bit early. The only table available was outside, which was perfect. The food and drinks were fantastic and the inside was so uniquely designed. We will definitely be back next time we
Grazie Mille Gianni !!
Had an absolutely lovely night. The scenery is great , fantastic service, tasty drink and yummy food. Authentic Italian experience! Grazie Mille a Gianni, a fantastic waiter :)) we will be back!
Bright and vibrant Italian
Great place! Bright and vibrant decor. Lots of little signs and lights that catch your eye! The food was fantastic and arrived really quickly. The starters were a little on the small side, but no issue as the mains are a good size! Two of the party h
A delightful friendly restaurant.with wonderful food.
What a delightful place, from the front of house staff, who dealt with my unfortunately wrong night booking, seamlessly. To the serving staff who were so friendly, and happy to explain anything on the menu. And above all else the food was delightful
Great restaurant
Ave Mario is a great restaurant. In a two (2) week vacation and stoping in London three (3) times we visited the restaurant two (2) times. We love it.
Furious, do not book here, RIP OFF MERCHANTS
I would give this restaurant a zero if I could. I booked and unfortunately had to cancel which was acknowledged by the restaurant. I do not like having to give card details when booking and have been proved right here. On returning home and checking
Tourist spot in Covent Garden
A very touristy spot in Covent Garden. Lots of teenagers and families. Nice decor that set the scene well. Service was very efficient and attentive. Food is mediocre but isn’t the focus of the restaurant. Restaurant doesn’t accept AMEX despite ch
The waiter added a huge tip!
My husband and I were having a great time until we realized we had been duped on the bill. We were seated right away with a reservation, the music was fun, and the atmosphere was jovial. Our dishes were good, and the service was decent, although they
Excellent food and service, make a reservation for sure, I
Excellent food and service, make a reservation for sure, I had the haggis And it was super for the American palate.
Visiting Covent Garden…Ave Mario is the perfect place to eat
Firstly, this is a super environment with an enormous bar and great lighting & music The staff were impeccable, quickly there if require but otherwise very unobtrusive The food is excellent, the bruschetta is with aubergine and delightful &
Disappointing experience at Ave Mario
We went to Ave Mario yesterday for dinner with a friend. We ordered food and drinks, and as soon as we finished, we were asked twice if we wanted dessert. After we said no, the waiter told us our time was up, even though it wasn’t. We felt rushed a
Saturday lunch
Lunch with a friend on a busy Saturday. We were very well looked after by several staff who were all helpful and friendly. We had the set lunch menu which had quite a few options. Sadly the main we wanted had run out but we were offered an alternativ

Food: spagettini vongole in white wine sauce, garlic bread, tagliatelle with ragú, and seafood risotto, and tiramisu. This was one of our best meals in London. (The other was chicken curry thali at Masala Zone). All the food was delicious and prop
Absolutely amazing stop.
Food is awesome. Totally reasonable. The service was fantastic. Get the pistachio ice cream. WOW!
Amazing location I was told by tour guide Princess Di loved.
Service was spectacular. Food even better! I started with the Insalata Tricolor. Wow was it fresh and delicious. Perfectly ripe avocado, rich tomato and homemade mozzarella. Complemented with basil, EVOO and olives. Next I had the tortellini de Vi
It was good food and atmosphere.
However our waiter was MIA for most of our time. Another waitress helped us.
Salad really fresh, pasta amazing, Vegan pizza sauce to die
Salad really fresh, pasta amazing, Vegan pizza sauce to die for!!! ambiance really cozy!!!!
I sat down had my bread.
I was ready for my main course as soon as that buttered up shiny buttery pasta came to my plate I was astonished. It was all buttery in my mouth, I just wanna get on my hands and knees and bow down to the chef that cooked up this masterpiece of a pas
Busy on a Saturday night.
Old school place, nostalgic and well worn at once. Servers are attentive. Good seating inside and out. Appetizers like bruschetta and salads are more than shareable. Limoncello shot gratis wraps up a nice evening. The ties to Princess Di are everywhe

I wanted to eat at Da Mario's (2016) because of all the hoopla about Princess Diana. The minute I walked in, I was unimpressed at how old the place looked, The decor, old chipping paint...didn't look that clean. I guess I was expecting so
We were on vacation and found this place.
A cute little corner restaurant that offered excellent service and the food was delicious! We shared a salad at our table and I ordered a pizza that was delicious. We also got dessert to share and also amazing
This place was 15 min walk from my hotel.
The atmosphere was wonderful. This made my trip to Londoneven more memorable. The food was delicious. I would go back and eat there again.
This is unbelievably great pizza! I can see why Princess
This is unbelievably great pizza! I can see why Princess Diana brought her boys there regularly. Excellent service, great food and wine - who could ask for a better Italian / Pizza restaurant
We had a fantastic dinner at Da Mario Restaurant.
The atmosphere was great, and the staff were attentive when we ordered our food and drinks. The truffle pasta was delicious, and we also loved the whole fish and steak with sides. Even though we were offered dessert, we were too full to enjoy it. The
Delicious Italian!
We had an exceptional meal here - the portions were generous and reasonably priced, and service was so quick. The place also has a really fun vibe but the tables are arranged in a way that still affords some privacy and intimacy, so it doesn't feel n
Oh dear!
Very poor, cremated bruschetta, calamari and pasta that was so salty I was unable to eat it. Staff were friendly and the house red wine good. Overall very disappointing.
Delicious Italian food in gorgeous restaurant
I nearly missed the entrance, it's not as prominent as Gloria or Jacuzzi, two of the other Big Mama restaurants that I have been to, but once you've found it, it's just as fabulous. In between The Strand and Covent Garden the location was perfect for
Great spot !
Lovely ambience, staff were lovely and food was 10/10. Highly recommend getting all the starters and the banoffee pie!
will not go again
Beautiful place, however service and food was ok, but not justifiable for their optional £30 service charge. My Son was treating the family and just because we could not afford this, I saw the waitress start complaining to her co-worker in Italian
What a shame
Don’t usually write bad reviews and have had very positive experience with Big Mama restaurants in the past - but will not be returning. We were downstairs at the kitchen counter. Firstly asked for theGorgonzola walnut salad - it was early midday
Great food bad service
First time visiting and won't be returning. Pros - great food. Everything I had was delicious. Fun, vibrant surroundings and atmosphere. Nice cocktails and wine. Cons - booths for 2 people are quite cramped. Nowhere to put coats or bags. Service was
Cool place
What a cool little pace. Great service, great atmosphere and gear food! Perfect for lunch/dinner with friends and for couples.

I have been visiting for half a century, since I attended school around the corner. If you're looking for authenticity and dependable menus, this is the place. Going from strength to strength with a bookable private area downstairs for groups and par
This place rules.
My wife and I were in London and had some tentative plans on a Monday night that we ended up ditching at the last minute. Next order of business, where to eat? We filtered on a few things and landed on Da Mario, as it seemed like a reliable and popu
Fantastic food and great service.
I have been several times and have enjoyed every meal.
Amazing, simply delicious food.
We ordered veg pasta and gnocchi. Service was amazing to cater to our diet preferences and void cross contamination.
Amazing place!!! Food and staff were wonderful.
We loved everything about it! Anytime we are in London we will return.

What an AMAZING experience tonight! Fabiana made us feel like we were home!! She was so cheerful and lovely. Best "hidden menu" carbonara we've ever had. It was my birthday and they played "happy birthday" over the speakers and th
Omg Italian food at its finest.
its a small little authentic restaurant. Host and Server were brilliant food was fantastic. Piping hot and fresh and very good. ill cross the pond again for another visit
Amazing Italian, gray tasting food close to Royal Albert
Amazing Italian, gray tasting food close to Royal Albert Hall. The seasoning on my pasta was perfect.

I very rarely write reviews but I have to take the time for the sake of my fellow asians/non-whites out there. TLDR: racist staff, average to above average food. Just WOW. My friend (also asian) and I walked in without a reservation around 4:45pm
Great food and hospitality
Amazing ambience and atmosphere. Lovely place to go out for dinner and great hospitality. The food is so nice too. I recommend
AVOID! Cold Food and Tacky Restaurant.
We visited at the weekend after a show in the area. We were very excited to visit after hearing lots of good things! However the food was served cold and tasteless and the portions were tiny! We left hungry and very disappointed after looking forward
Amazing Staff
Nice food and drinks. The staff did everything to provide us an incredible experience! The only thing we don't recommend is the Focaccia for starter. The portion is small and it seems more a Toast than a Focaccia, however, everything else was reall
Great atmosphere!
We went here before seeing a west end show. Atmosphere was fantastic and food was superb! Would highly recommend and great location.
Nice surroundings, disappointing food.
Impressive restaurant with quirky decor and a buzzy atmosphere. Food unfortunately extremely average. Had ravioli which was bland, filling was quite watery and with very little flavour. Definitely style over substance.
More than a restaurant
This place is heaven for all the senses: the food, the smells, the decor and design, the colours, everything truly italian. Prices are very reasonable for London and reservation is highly reccommended.
Disappointing
Vibrant restaurant with amazing decor. However food was served cold which made it very unappetising. Cold cannelloni isn’t great. I can’t seem to reach the restaurant privately so am having to do a public review. I didn’t send my meal back as i
Mr Idalecio
I went with my wife on 12th of March for lunch and we had a great experience again. Beautiful restaurant, with great atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food. I really recommend it to all my friends and family. See you all soon, thank you!
Connect with users posting reservations for Ave Mario London
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Ave Mario London. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Ave Mario London at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Ave Mario London page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Ave Mario London to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Ave Mario London!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
