I too had the lobster raviolli. Tasted of very little and I think I got 5 parcels as a main course and all for £13.95. Too expensive and very average. How do they get away with it?

Good service, good food but not good enough to justify the extornionate price (we paid £60 per head for a 3 course meal with wine). We probably won't be making another visit unless they address their over priced food! Also I wasn't entirely convinced my lobster ravioli contained any lobster!

This has been my favourite restaurant for as long as I can remember and having heard it had recently changed hands?? was curious to see if things had changed. They haven't - same waiter I remember from back in the day, spoilt for choice if you are a fish lover. I had the copper pot for main - amazing,be prepared to get your hands dirty and don't wear a white top! Partner had scallops and prawns for starter - scallops PERFECTLY cooked (although the coral was still attached which is a bit of a turn off for me). Dad had his favourite - dover sole cooked on the bone, reckoned it was very slightly overcooked but pretty sure he will overlook this and return on his next trip to London. Even the Italian cheese served with honey - bizarre I thought but works a treat, and figs were outstanding. Personally I think this restaurant is very fairly priced and has great ambience, but I would still go for the quality of the food even if the service was crap! Shame its such a pain to get home from (Maidstone).

The food was pretty good although the calamari was a bit overcooked. Good specials board and decent choice on the menu. Mains were excellent. Waiters / manager polite. Ticked all the boxes. But it was just overpriced enough to be annoying, which put a slight damper on things.

I'd read so many good reviews I booked for 2 of us to eat here on a Friday evening at 7pm. We were quite dissapointed. Even though it was practically empty we were given a terrible table. The service wasn't very friendly and we felt that we were being rushed through our meal I suspect because the staff were not busy with anything else. The broth was very nice but the Lobster Ravioli was pretty tasteless. The restaurant stayed quite empty while we were there but they still felt the need to squash another couple in on the table right next to us. I expect it would be a better experience in a larger group at a busier time. I won't be going back.

far too pricey for what they offer: three 3-course menus (I personally had tuna tartare-good, lobster-just ok; industrial dessert) came at £230. Far too much for the venue..

A fantastic restaurant for fish and seafood lovers. The excellent, extensive menu has something for everyone - we had the seafood platter on ice and it was both delicious and extremely good value. Mains were perfect too and a creme brulee for dessert topped things off perfectly. Th restaurant has a lovely 'holiday' vibe to it too, all white washed walls and terracotta - perfect for escaping the miserable London weather.

I have been to pescatori 3 times. It's a really lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere. The wine menu is extensive and the waiters are very knowledgeable and will happily let you try a couple before commiting. The fish is cooked perfectly, and I can't fault any of the food at all. It is pricey but great to go to for a special occasion.

I took my boyfriend here last night for his birthday, based solely on what I'd read on this site. It was perfect! A warm welcome from the owner, good service throughout from the waiters/waitresses. An amazing choice on the menu - it took us so long to actually pick! Have to particularly recommend the tuna tartare and scallop carpaccio starter, and the cacciucco stew or the fresh saffron scallops for main. Good reasonable wine, and lovely puddings too. It's not cheap, but it's entirely reasonable given the quality of the food and the surroundings.
Recommended!

We used to visit this place when it was the Trattoria dei Pwscatori. Revisited recently and were disappointed. Almost £100 for 2 without wine! Portions used to be much more generous. We ordered a fig and apricot compote for dessert which turned out to be a few pieces of dried fruit sprinkled on two big scoops of vanilla ice cream.Ambience not as up market as it used to be.
