The Franklin Restaurant - (Near Kensington and Chelsea, london)

Adrian o Loved it! Family run and proper Italian little gem. Pizza was amazing and pity I didn’t try the pasta!! Was very impressed with the service and no service charge added which was rare and appreciated when in London…of course I did give a good tip but was nice to have the option.

M An unforgettable dining experience. I had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at this restaurant last night, and the evening exceeded all expectations. Despite the lively atmosphere and a full dining room, the service was seamless, attentive yet discreet, striking the perfect balance. Each dish was both visually captivating and exquisitely prepared, showcasing a clear mastery in the kitchen. The flavors were so enticing that we found ourselves ordering more than anticipated, no doubt to the quiet amusement of the brigade. This was not merely a meal, but a genuinely memorable occasion. I would wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone in search of refined cuisine, impeccable service, and a truly special experience.

K V Very calm restaurant with delicious food. Came here for Sunday roast and ended up having the beef wellington which was delicious and perfectly cooked. The only negative thing I would say is timings were a little off - we waited ages to get the menu and then once we ordered they had barely poured the wine before the food arrived. But overall excellent experience, would definitely come back!

Jacqueline Wee The food? Amazing. Service ? Amazing. Atmosphere? ? Amazing. Came to London for travels and this has to be one of our favourite meals here! Would 100% return if I had the chance to again! (they even gave complimentary tea / coffee which is so amazing, the workers here are so so sweet and wonderful)

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.

Roxy Williams I’m so glad I popped in. I was on my way home and looking for somewhere to enjoy a glass of wine and maybe some olives. Ricardo’s looked so inviting, and after a quick glance at the menu I knew I couldn’t just have olives. The atmosphere inside was warm and cosy, fairy lights and candles gave it a wonderful warm glow. All the staff were friendly and attentive. My glass was always topped up, I was made to feel incredibly welcome, and the atmosphere was just right. The food was PERFECT. The bread and olives were divine - I could have easily filled up on them. The linguine with clams was rich and delicious, with a generous amount of garlic and just the right little kick of chilli. Make sure you save room for dessert - the tiramisu was divine. I’m so sp glad I stopped by on a whim, and I will definitely be back again!
