ALBA London - Italian Restaurant Knightsbridge - (Near Kensington and Chelsea, South East)

4 /5 Arththy Arumugam: This is a beautiful restaurant that you have to visit. They had a special cocktail made with pistachio cream and pistachio crumbs, which was the best cocktail I ever had. The seafood risotto was the best. The ravioli was delicious as well. Unfortunately the lamb was the one thing that wasnt quite right. It was very bland and seemed overcooked. However, as it is a seafood restaurant you should stick to the seafood dishes as they were all very good and fresh. We were served by Sam who was very attentive and made sure that all our questions were answered.

5 /5 Naz K: Came here as a large group to celebrate a birthday and the atmosphere really stood out chic, lively, and perfect for a special night. Service was great and the staff were amazing. The food was really tasty. We enjoyed the filetto di bosco, Alba tagliatelle, and the carpaccio especially was great. Spicy margaritas were also really good. The only thing I didn’t love was the baby artichoke salad. Overall, it felt like a polished fine dining experience. I loved the elegant table setting and the whole vibe. Would definitely come back and recommend it.

5 /5 Isaac Fernandez: I dont use to make reviews but Alba worth at less one honest. I just walk in and they had some booked tables so we can get the table that we ask, but they gave us a good one next to the kitchen. We didnt expected an amazing dinner, but EVERYTHING was incredible. Starting with the service. The receptionist, waiters, chef and also the barmans was so nicely with us. The food was incredible, we share the lobster pasta, the best choise. 100% recommended. For sure I am coming back. I wat to try the degustation menu. See you

3 /5 A T: The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, made even more special by the view of Harrods right in front. The food is excellent, nothing to complain about. However, there is a but. I dine in Italian restaurants in London very often, and there are many good ones. What truly makes the difference, though, is what makes you remember a place and want to come back. Unfortunately, when I think of Alba, I will remember being denied a Baileys at the end of the meal. We spent around £5,000, all my colleagues were toasting together, and I was left watching, excluded — simply because I don’t like the house amaro. This restaurant lacks a bit of humanity and customer care within the staff. It’s a real shame, especially as one of the waiters was genuinely sorry for not being able to serve it. I won’t be returning.
