Estro

I've had a few naff meals lately in various places but this Italian restaurant restored my faith in being served better food in a restaurant than I can knock up at home.

I went with a pal and shared starters of calamari and Boconcini salad: I'd never had the latter before. It's a green salad with speck wrapped round mozarella cheese and croutons - great flavour and texture contrasts. A lot of thought had gone into the flavours of my sea bass with baked fennel, and my friend's tuna with a sort of bean mash and roast toms was also delicious. I had lemon and pine nut tart for pud which was lovely, and by the sound of the appreciation from the next table the tira-misu is pretty good too. Small details like the quality of the olives, and the fact that there are table cloths(hurrah!) make this a really comfortable, pleasant dining experience.

It was also great value for money. We will be going back.

Great local restaurant, very good quality and authentic Italian food prepared on the ground with fresh ingredients. Certainly the best Italian restaurant in Fulham/Chelsea area. Impeccable service. Great value for money. Can go both with family and friends, Pasta a la Riciotta my favourite.

Went to this restaurant last Saturday - without booking and were lucky to get in, as it soon filled. We had a really super meal, including all the extras (olives, garlic bread etc) and the whole evening was a delight. Definately good value for money and they serve the best taramisu I've ever had! Service was excellent and friendly, we will definately be going back. We were given a small sample of the new sorbets to be introduced on to the menu (along with the puddings ordered!) and they were divine, as only the Italians can make them and it was good to know that the menu will have even more of a selection! YUM.

we have been to ESTRO several times now and love it. The service is good and the pizzas are the best weve had in England.The restaurant has a clean contemporary feel and we didnt have to shout over loud music which makes a nice change.The calamari is a favourite of mine and the lamb shank with mash is just yummy.

Estro restuarant has replaced the abysmal Matriciano restaurant. It is under new manangement and a world apart! Already a firm favourite with many of us locals in Parson's Green. I would highly recommend it for its fabulous pizzas and pasta dishes - and finished off with some unique desserts, the fig tart is divine!

Friendly, contemparary setting. Kids menu and weekday offers makes this a great place for families.
