  I've been to Numero Uno twice and overall really enjoyed my time there. My first time I was with a larger group and we all had excellent service; the dishes were excellent and well timed, the waiters were fun, helpful and on point, no water glass left empty, etc.
  
  My second time I think the waiters/kitchen were just having an off-day; a couple temperature mistakes and things didn't go as smoothly in general (hey, nobody is perfect).
  
  My one complaint is the volume of the restaurant. After filling up it was very hard to hear the others at the table. I think the place could use some sound absorbers.
  
  The Wine is great and well priced, also! The Tuna Carpaccio and Grilled Sole were amazing.
  
  I'd definitely go back for more, but ask to sit in the furthest corner from the din

  Had dinner here with my Mum and partner. Service was really good. Waiters were helpful in their opinions on what to order as well as having a sense of humour. Food was very good. Had the calamari starter and calf's liver for mains. Partner had veal in mushroom sauce for mains and Mum had the calamari for mains. Dessert was the tiramisu which was delicious as well as an almond tart.

  Very serviceable neighbourhood Italian- it seems like it's been here forever. Excellent pasta dishes, and lots of seafood. Extremely popular with families , couples, and indeed local business people, you'll rarely see the place empty( particularly on a sunny weekend).
  
  I particularly enjoyed deep fried artichokes as a starter, and the ravioli al tartufo ( white truffle ravioli) was also excellent on my last visit. One of the few restaurants I know of that still has a dessert trolley( welcome to desserts c 1981 - think tiramisu and profiteroles). As other reviewers have noted, the waiters are in the classic stereotypical mould- expect to have all your menu choices pronounced "perfect". Expect to leave £30-40 lighter per head for three courses , excluding drinks, ut with a sense of cosey well being.
  
  If I had one gripe, it would be that there isn't a wider range of wines by the glass( house white or red only, both passable Sicilian ones as I recall).

  Traditional intimate Italian restaurant in the heart of Battersea serving classics like spaghetti al vongole with simple elegance and cracking bottles of Chianti to boot.
  
  They're not giving the food away, but if you're looking for real Italian food and atmosphere south of the river, look no further.

  This little Italian is going to become my all time favourite local. Have been here only twice so far but both times, have experienced everything you would want to see in a local italian restaurant... including the lemoncello given to you again and again after your meal!
  It boasts an extememely large selection of classic italian dishes that makes choosing very difficult but I plan to try and test them all!
