Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 151 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. However, many customers frequently report significant issues with delivery, including orders that are delayed, never arrive, or contain ruined food due to inadequate temperature control. People also often receive incorrect or incomplete orders, with missing items or undersized portions. The quality of the food is frequently criticized for being bland, poorly seasoned, or having issues like thick pasta and non-existent fillings. Service experiences, both customer support and in-restaurant, are often described as unhelpful or lacking attention. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with the product's taste, describing meals as delicious, fresh, and flavourful when received correctly. Some reviewers also enjoyed the pasta-making classes, finding them to be fun and a great learning experience.

Food is not bad for a delivery, but packaging is horrendous, e.g. the disposal of the cooling pouches. Never ordering again on that basis alone.

Fun & easy pasta making class

I was offered as a gift a voucher for a pasta making class and I went for the Taste of Umbria where we handmade Strangozzi pasta. It was a great experience, good for beginners, to the point, we got to eat it with truffle butter and it was yummy. This was accompanied by an antipasti and bottomless Prosecco! The chef was fun and it was a nice, chilled environment in the basement of the Richmond restaurant. Thank you for the experience!

Sell you bigger portions than asked for and charge you more

I have been buying their pasta since they first set up, by mail order, and I have always liked the pasta. I stopped ordering as the vegetarian options were limited and it was always the same choices, no changes. I walked past the Richmond branch and purchased some pasta and sauce for two people, at least that's what I asked. I found the containers excessive and very bulky, with plastic lids. I have bought fresh pasta in France and I had a very good carboard box which could be recycled, for the pasta. When I opened the boxes at home and started preparing for cooking, I found that ONE portion was enough for TWO people! Therefore, I have been sold enough for four people, there was even some left over once cooked. I really don't appreciate being deceived by the staff into buying morobe than I asked for as I trusted their knowledge. I won't be going back and certainly won't buy their pasta again. I paid £23 for pasta for two and sauce, when it should have been half of this! Very expensive for nice pasta but nothing special. The pasta and sauce I bought in France were simply amazing. Don't go, they've obivously been told to charge as much as possible and to deceive the customer into buying more than nessary.

Pasta making & bottomless Prosecco at Farringdon

I attended the pasta making with bottomless Prosecco with my fiancé last week as a belated Christmas present. We were shown to our table where our antipasti was plated up ready to eat. Glasses were filled with Prosecco pretty much straight away. Our ingredients were laid out on the table as well as equipment and we were shown by the chef how to make the pasta step by step. Once made it was handed over to the chef to cook and add the sauce then we were called up when it was ready and was able to add toppings such as chilli flakes, oregano, and Parmesan. Our session was Taste of the northern alps and we got to make ricotta ravioli. Honestly some of the best tasting pasta I’ve ever had! Even better that it was made by ourselves and so easy to replicate at home.
Highly recommend!

I bought the chicken Alfredo and it was…

I bought the chicken Alfredo and it was possibly the worst bowl of pasta I have ever tried. I spent £18 on this and it was horrid. The pasta was rock solid. The chicken was mushy and just awful. Would not recommend this place at all.

Disappointing!!!!

We ordered two types of pasta, and unfortunately, both were disappointing. The mushroom sauce was watery and bland, and one of the mushrooms was oddly chewy with a strange taste. The other pasta, supposedly truffle-based, had nothing resembling the flavor of real truffle and tasted quite off. The only redeeming quality was the pasta itself – perfectly cooked to the right texture.

Great experience

Excellent and entertaining tuition by Chef Rosie. The ragu beef we ate with our self made pasta was delicious and we took home the recipe.
They were very generous with the prosecco, continually topping up glasses, and the aperitifs at the beginning we simple, tasty but filling.

Undercooked cold and bits missing

Are whole order arrived not only cold but the pasta was undercooked! I paid for extra chicken to be added into my dish and there was only 3 pieces of chicken in the whole thing! We spent £44 for and absolutely disgraceful service... I will never ever buy from this place ever again!...

Website said we woukd be given linen…

Website said we would be given linen apron on arrival not true. really off putting having staff going back and forth behind the chief when she was demonstrating. We paid 50, definitely not worth 68 full price.

This was an amazing experience

This was an amazing experience. Rosie had a fantastic personality and was a great teacher. The Prosecco and the wine were flowing and our pasta came out absolutely delicious. I wish I had the recipe for the sauce, cause it was super good.

A fun time had at Chiswick

We had a great time at Chiswick. Our chef Giorgio was so welcoming, friendly, and attentive. He was very enthusiastic and made it a fun and relaxed class. The end results were delicious too, with a tasty ragu for our hand made pasta. We will definitely be booking another class and I will be highly recommending the experience to friends and family.

What a lovely experience

What a lovely experience! Our Chef Fransesca was clearly passionate about cooking and taught us how to make a four cheese ravioli. She was attentive and knowledgeable, passing on tips to us. The pasta was delicious. All the people involved in the afternoon were friendly and on hand to clear up our mess. The Prosecco was free flowing and all in all a lovely afternoon! Thank you all!
