Having been a regular when I worked round the corner in Bunhill Row for several years, a welcome return visit after a goodly while. Still a simple and good menu, succinct winelist and friendly service. Great that nothing has changed here in that time. Sometimes there's just no need to change.
Loved this place! Food is delicious! I felt like I was on vacation in Greece, having lunch in a cosy family owned restaurant. You stop thinkinkig about an average interior, when you make your first bite of freshly cooked dish.
Tasty food, great portion size (some restaurants seem to assume that if you're vegetarian/vegan you must not be hungry) and attentive, charming staff.
It's ok but no music was on when we were there. It was a bit awkward. Food was good. Especially potato cakes on aubergine casserole. Service was good as well. Very polite and quick. Just be prepared that it can be a bit quite in there. I also had a starter. It's my fault but the artichoke were sweet but expecting something savoury. The dessert which was vegan chocolate cake was lovely though. We went just after 18 so I think they just opened so it was very quite. But at least food was quick.
Such a lovely little restaurant for a veggie meal. So much choice and it was absolutely delicious. Vegan options also available and, whilst I didn't have any myself, the desserts looked amazing. Service was friendly, the walnut bread and olive oil was yummy and it's not too expensive. A great choice!
Service was discreet but also very friendly and they were happy to amend a dish for us. Small but well chosen drinks menu and I had a genuine problem choosing a main course as they were all so tempting. Decor was a bit plain. We enjoyed the ravioli and the chickpea curry and I would not hesitate to recommend Carnevale to meat eaters and veggies alike near Old St and the City.
Cosy little restaurant with a great selection of meals. The food reminded me of almost a home cooked style. Plenty of vegan options as well as gluten free. The meals were good sizes and served quite quickly. The desserts were the highlight of the evening. The staff were friendly and free bread is offered with olive oil and balsamic. The meals are reasonably priced.
I went here while visiting some non-veggie friends, and all three of us absolutely LOVED this restaurant. As a vegetarian it's always a treat to go to a restaurant and not be limited to one or two items on the menu, and it took me ages to narrow my choices down and pick from all the amazing food on offer.
For my starter I had the pumpkin gnocchi in garlic sauce, which was delicious (I also tried my friend's balsamic vinegar and honey glazed halloumi, which was amazing). The gnocchi was crisp on the outside, soft in the middle, had a unique flavour and was beautifully complimented by the sauce.
For my main course I had the goats cheese and butternut squash ravioli. I felt I should order something more unusual, but it's a combination of flavours which I know and love. I was not disappointed, and the familiar taste was enhanced by the unusual addition of lentils to the dish.
As a dessert I chose the (vegan) chocolate roulade, which was absolutely lovely, and made very unusual by the earl grey truffle filling!
We enjoyed the elderflower cocktails (possibly too much!) and were so glad to be seated in the tiny patio at the back, as we could see the other diners but felt like we had our own private little room- perfect when catching up with friends. Overall it was a wonderful dining experience and I hope to visit again soon, and perhaps try to replicate the delicious gnocchi at home!
(It got very busy so I would recommend booking!)
