  I have had take away pasta here a few times and never disappoints, the price is extremely good for take away and reasonable for dinning in as well. Today i went for a sit down and had Spaghetti Bolognese, food was served quickly and staff very friendly and quick.The only issue is that is does get very busy so try to go early or book and also the acoustics are not great so it can be difficult to have a conversation, it is not a large place but you still don’t feel on top of each other.Great pasts and Italian cuisine but no pizza in case you were expecting this. m3jal.com

  Demartino is one of my favourite Italians in London. The owner is always friendsly and accomodating, and the food is fast and fresh. I love the mussels and the fried mozerella, and the carbonara is delicious too. It sits unassuming on Great Portland street, but dont overlook it , its delicious. laughteriscatching.com

  Really great Italian restaurant, the pastas are so good, the veal Milanese is light and crunchy. Staff are friendly and atmosphere is cozy Italian. I have never been able to try their desserts as I get full by their huge portions !I highly recommend this place.

  Awful experience, not recommended. Bad service, bad food (surprised to see one of the easiest Italian spaghetti dishes be messed up so royally: the garlic, olive oil and chili spaghetti was barely edible), waitress preferred to check herself in the mirrors over actually hosting, since she works in the HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY. Restaurant owner reacted rudely and aggressively when I quietly and discreetly noted that the service had been disappointing, choosing to insult me loudly. I promised to give his establishment a bad review and here it is.

  Demartino is one of the places I visit quite regularly in London, mainly because the food is very good, and really worth the money. The atmosphere is always busy, especially around lunch time, and dinner time (it’s open all day so you can show up whenever you want). The feel is very ‘home-y’, loud, and reflective of a true authentic Italian restaurant. The waiters are very friendly, and the service is always great as in I have never had to wait longer than expected, or gotten a wrong order or anything of the sort. Food-wise, everything on the menu is good and very comforting and satisfying- I have had the clam pasta, the bolognese, the carbonara, the swordfish, the salads, the aubergine- and all of them were very very good! Also, the restaurant is very generous in quantities, so you’re never left feeling hungry or unsatisfied. If you’re going for a meat dish, you should expect to pay a maximum of 20 pounds with your drink and service, and the pasta dishes are cheaper (especially if you want to get take away, (a small 6 pounds for an extremely generous portion of pasta that you could even share with someone else). I really recommend this place for a good casual Italian dinner.

  Ok food, restaurant has just had a revamp and can get really busy. Somewhat disappointed with the food on the last visit (march 2011) but I have had some great meals here. Staff are friendly even when busy though more so if you speak Italian.

  Terrible service and the food is not that good compared to other italian restaurants – the pastas are sticky -the seafood (king prawns) taste like boiled fish – no flavour at all if you dont sprinkle parmesan cheese – a restaurant that looks good but tastes like watermelon – do not go there unless you like bland food
