Italy 1 Camberwell

4.5This restaurant has been around for ever and had a good Zomato rating so we booked in for The Fork 50% off food deal. The interior is cute and classy and it seemed the lunch rush was over. They were out of calamari so we ordered the arancini and mussels to start. Arancini were three cheese and delicious. The mussels these were amazing!! The sauce they were in was mind blowing. Nectar. I can’t express how good they were! I had the spanner crab risotto for mains and it was rich and tasty, although I could have done with a slightly bigger serving! The marinara was also rich and full of seafood. Desserts were the tiramisu and lemon tart. This was an amazing meal made even better by the fact that it was half price through thefork promotion.

Will come back for:<br/ Bruschetta<br/ Linguine Marinara<br/ Risotto of duck ragu<br/ <br/ Popped in here for a quick lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of ingredients in each dish. When you are starting with great ingredients, you don’t really do too much except to help to accentuate these flavours and to treat these with respect. The chefs in this place really know how to do this. The bruschetta was nicely balanced, lighter then expected, flavourful and delicious. The linguine was perfectly cooked and surrounded by generous portion of well cooked seafood. Risotto is a difficult dish to get perfect, but these were well cooked and the balanced of flavours was really good. Service was quick, friendly and efficient. Prices are above average but fair for what you get. A great little spot for your fill of Italian fair. Recommended.

We came here on a weeknight but it was still full of customers. It can get quite noisy when it's super busy and service takes a bit of a hit. <br/ <br/ Having said that, this is quality Italian cuisine second to none. Proportions were a bit out of whack with the fish of the day appearing shrunken while the veal was spilling over the edges of the plate. The tiramisu had more caffeine than my weekly intake, could not sleep until 3am (you have been warned!

I managed a walk in on a Tuesday night, and by request rushed a sit down meal in 50 minutes before the movie started. Looking at the place was a bit of a puzzle, I was standing near what I wondered could be the door inside, it's a very small glass door! that opens onto a half inside eating area for 6.Carpaccio was classic in flavor combination, gnocci good, but a bit of a heart attack trying to finish it, even if the pear helps cut through, the highlight was the rolled spinach pasta thingy.The service guy know whats going on, being a bit of a showmen, its what I want in a Italian place, also a guy with a bit of arrogance, I will have to test him on that next time.Bread was awesome.Bill a bit high.After I win the 80 million this week, i'll return again

Visited this place on busy weekend's night. Italy 1 was crowded with many people, but the staff warmly welcomed us.Firstly, we had some appetizers with cocktails which they recommended. Then, linguine marinara and slow braised veal shanks to share. All dishes were beautiful, especially Linguine Marinara was exceptional!!Just because the restaurant can be a bit noisy when it is on peak time, I rate 4.5 here.
