Honestly the best pizza in E20!!! Came on a Sunday night - was nice, chill and very relaxing. We’ve lived in the area for a while now but never tried here. The other pizza places are just not good for various reasons. Happy we’ve found our new pizza joint 😄

Everything is fantastic on the menu, my favourite is the spaghetti frutti di mare. It’s the BEST that I’ve had, the spaghetti soaks up all the seafood goodness, the spaghetti is perfectly al dente. The parmigiana di melanzane and boozy tiramisu were amazing too, can’t wait to be back!!

Unexpected find this. Italian restaurant in the newish residential square beyond Stratford International. Had a European vibe. Reminded me of Düsseldorf, the bit behind the Holiday Inn. A good choice. Seated without reservation on a Wednesday night, the restaurant was popular without being too busy. Mixed crowd - families, couples and a big work party worshipping their colleague. The beer was Menabrea. Increasingly popular these days. We’re a long way from Glasgow now. Really good choices on the menu - opted for arancini to start (beautiful and fresh), with a Versuvio pizza as main. The latter topped with salami and a gorgeously runny egg. Yes. The yolk burst and flowed across the pizza and my heart swelled. So rare. Nice thin base with fluffy crust; the pizzaolo knows their craft. For pudding there was, of course, tiramisu. Of course. A standard tiramisu but decent. I shall sing no songs of it though. Overall a good choice; service was excellent and quick and the food was fresh and tasty. A visit is recommended if you like these things. If you do not, then Westfield awaits 🙌🏻

We visited Santi on Tuesday evening and it was great experience. The pasta with shrimps was very testy, especially a souse, that was absolutely delicious! We also ordered carpaccio as a starter and bottle of white Sauvignon wine, which were also very good. We really enjoyed the evening and atmosphere, thanks you!

We ate at Santi on a Wednesday evening, and the experience was wonderful. Food was tasty and abundant - we ordered a starter (fried calamari) and two mains (lasagne and paccheri with nduja) - all of which was delicious and clearly freshly made. My girlfriend was so happy to have found a place with great lasagne in London! The manager helped us pair a nice glass of wine to our food and stopped by for a chat. The atmosphere was relaxed and informal. We'll definitely be back soon!

Everything great! The French waitres was super friendly and suggested a couple of dishes. Her suggestions were fantastic. That was one of the best "pizza" I had in London (truncheto pizza, which is wrapped pizza). Definitely come and support this great business! More people should come, don't understand why it was not completely full!

[UPDATED 14/12/2024] Revised down to 2 stars! There have been several price increases since my last review. The quality and quantity of food has also gone down. The new pricing means that you will be paying £17 for a carbonara and £24 for a seafood linguine! The portion has also gotten smaller with less sea food and ingredients. The quality has taken a similar direction, I am pretty sure some of the seafood in the “frutti di mare” were from frozen. The carbonara was “grainy”. This is typical of overcooking the eggs in the final stages. Such a shame. What was a great restaurant delivering good food and value has now become a bit of an overpriced trap. New photos attached! [Previous Review] TLDR; very generous portions and good quality ingredients used although food was little under salted. Service was excellent. Would recommend. Even though it’s not the cheapest Italian restaurant around Stratford, Santi doesn’t skimp on the amount of food and quality of ingredients they use. We were especially impressed by the king prawns linguine and tiramisu which were both generously portioned. The prawns were cooked perfectly and it over done. However, both pasta dishes we had were a little under salted. Not a big deal as cheese, salt and pepper were available on the side. The service was polite and not too intrusive which is not something I can say about all restaurants.

Vegetarian options: Mouthwatering vegan options, lovely staff and although the restaurant was loud it was still a lovely dining experience. Dietary restrictions: I went in for their vegan options which, although limited, were delicious. Kid-friendliness: It was filled with screaming children so Im going to guess that theyre kid-friendly...

SUCH a HORRIBLE costumer serivuce, I call at 8:40 pm to order a pizza for take away and she tells me no pizza, no food for takeaway and when I ask when they close there s no answer. They clearly close at 11 as stated online and their Deliveroo service is still working. What a way to treat your locals who support you. Me and the family won t be going there anymore.

Food was great, atmosphere was nice. We went for the seafood pasta wrapped in foil, pizza and another pasta. The service is good but could still be improved. One of our orders was missed out and resulted in 1 person having to wait much longer for his food. And we were asked to pay twice And when we sat outside, the man in the table next to us sat really far out and didn t leave much room for us to sit, he didn t want to move either. We had to move our table and chairs to get a bit more space. Overall the staff could be more proactive and attentive

I wish I had photos to show you the lovely food we had this evening - alas, we all ate too quickly and didnt think about it until the food was gone. We were a big party (15 of us) and we were all catered for beautifully. The manager was in touch with me in advance to make sure we all had the dishes we wanted. The food is absolutely delicious, flavourful, well presented and the portions are generous. They dont cut corners, to make sure they are serving you high quality dishes that arent overly pretentious but are made with love and care to be eaten and enjoyed! The staff worked so hard to make us feel welcome, which as the meal organiser, Im very grateful for. They even made paying the bill infividually really easy, which is great for such a large group! We will definitely be back. Thanks so much for a lovely evening, Francesco and staff. Much appreciated. Vegetarian options: There are plenty of options for veggies in all catagories Dietary restrictions: We had a gluten free diner and she was happy with her food Parking: There is an app-paid car park at Chobham Academy near by and a few street parking spaces (but not many). There is also parking at Westfield nearby. Kid-friendliness: Santi staff were so lovely to my kids and we were not the only famiy dining. We will definitely bring our kids back.

A pretty relaxed vibe in a nice restaurant. Fairly quiet for a Thursday night. We came just to try the pizza after walking past a few days earlier, when an older man stopped us to comment that it was the only truly Italian pizza in the area. It was delicious and the pizza came out within minutes of ordering. Staff were very friendly, just a bit slow to get the bill at the end. The reservation process online was a bit odd and didn t accept my reservation for hours. There s probably no need to make one for the weekdays - at least in the winter.

(Oct22)Excellent experience would highly recommend! Booked very late minute on a Friday night and was surprised to get a space. Food was amazing, staff were very friendly and accommodating and knew their stuff about the food and wines. Will definitely be back when we return to Stratford! (Jan23)Excellent second visit, will be returning! We love the food, drinks and service and would highly recommend. Both times my partner has had the Vesuvius pizza (with egg) and I have had two different fish based pasta dishes and the flavours and food quantity are perfect. Would also highly recommend the desserts, all of them..! The wines are perfect for the food, great quality at a reasonable price. The staff are attentive but not overly so, so you can eat your meal with being bothered but when you call them theyre there to help! Shout out to Daniella for being so friendly, informative and genuine this weekend when we visited. Thank you Santi :) a hidden gem and our regular favourite when we visit Stratford.

The interior design of this restaurant is nice, however after eating their pizza (margherita) I had stomach issues for all night long which means that the ingredients used to make the pizza were not fresh. I dont have and never had any intollerances or allergies to cheese, tomatoe, or dough and eating pizza since I was born and never had issues with my stomach in the past after eating pizza. Restaurant NOT RECOMMENDED!

Not good service slow and not friendly. Food hit and miss my risotto was cold, little flavour and the pasta source had spilt. Will not be back! My stomach doesn t feel great today too!

Let me start by saying I was slightly disappointed they didnt have gluten-free pizza dough when my friend and I went (around 7pmish on a Tuesday) but this was ultimately a good thing. Instead I had Spaghetti Carbonara which was possibly the best pasta dish Ive ever had in 28 years of living. If I could give more stars, I definitely would, and Ill certainly be eating there again. Dietary restrictions: When I went they had gluten free pasta but not pizza dough. If your heart is set on a certain dish, Id call ahead to check.

Shown to table, sat 20mins, no water offer, no order taken, walked out, no questions, no have a good evening. It wasn t that busy.

December 23, 2023

We were shown to our table and it took around 10 minutes to be given a menu. We waited for staff to approach us to offer us water or drinks, but after 35 minutes of no service, we left. When we walked out, the staff didn t even notice. Will not be returning.

December 23, 2023

Terrible service and very rude staff. Won t be coming back.

December 23, 2023

We went there for lunch after 10 minutes waiting at the table staff literally throw us the menus, politely we asked to take a order when they have time , on a rude way waitress say yes when I will have time because now I don t We decided to leave.

Really love the food at Santi. It never disappoints. However, its a real shame that the prices seem to go up every time we go, and big disappointment to have seen many pizzas removed from the menu... the Regina and the O sole mio, amongst others, are gone! Bring them back :o

Nduja was good and the risoto underwhelming and it s overpriced

December 23, 2023

Embarrassing service Was two of us as starter we went for parmigiana that to be fair looked good but took ages to be served and arrived dead cold! After complaining about it I thought I would receive a fresh one but what they did instead was smash it all up reheat it and serving back to us thinking was funny. We refused the dish and asked to proceed with pizzas, one Margherita and one 4 cheese, those were the wrost pizza I had in an Italian restaurant in London. Margherita tomato sauce was tasteless like salt was missing, the cheesy on e had massive base of ricotta and that was the only flavour could be tasted. At the end we got off the bill parmigiana and the service as it was terrible. I am Italian and really disappointed

Pizzas were great, one of the best ones we had in london. The toppings amount/quantity on the pizza is also very good. We left the place really satisfied. I would recommend this place! Unfortunately pizza prices have skyrocketed everywhere in london, and you can see it here too. Some pizzas have very aggressive prices, but I guess still in line with other places. Perhaps you would expect prices to be 1 or 2 pounds cheaper than some pizzerias located more towards the city centre.

Awful & shambolic! We booked a family dinner weeks ago for Saturday night and they had booked the remainder of the restaurant out for a large bus party. Completely rushed mains served within 5 mins arrived before starters, mains sent back as were cold only to be heated up in microwave! We won t be going back!

Perfect end to our last day of vacation in London. We were served by Alex. We didnt expect such service - very accommodating! The main course was served at the appropriate time after we had finished the starter. In addition, every little thing was asked for and, for example, we were served extra parmesan with our pasta. Pizza is also highly recommended! For London standards you get much more than expected for the price! Gladly again on your next vacation! :)

We have great memories of that.
