Cantina del Ponte

Good italian meal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very speedy service and great food on a set menu for pre-theatre dinner.

Nice meal at Cantina del Ponte. Have been a few times and it's always been a very pleasant place to eat whether you are sitting inside or out.

Amazing dining experience , they had live opera singing the night we dined there. Food was amazing and the lovely choice of wine. Service was impecable and having live singing really rounded off the night lovely.

If you ask for bread, they charge you but you get 3 different kind of bred. Two different kind of foccacia (thin and crispy or fluffy), one normal bread. It was very delicious and it's worth the money! I was just surprised, that there was no normal free bread served.

Great italian restaurant! The quality of food is astounding. Very friendly staff especially the general manager Fabio.

Fantastic views of the tower bridge an add bonus with outside seating! The food was great and good value for money. And we were looked after very well by the staff. Thank you to all the lovely staff.

A relaxed atmosphere where groups can talk and have fun while eating delicious Italian food

Good lunch, limited menu but good value only service let it down

Took visiting family with some dietary needs: pescatarian, gluten-free. There was plenty on the menu to satisfy.

It got busy towards the end of our evening and service slowed right down. We were offerd complimentary coffee as an apology.

The setting is second to none, right on the river and the outdoor tables are, of course, stunning in the spring and summer months. The atmosphere inside is warm and inviting and the tables comfortable.

My only criticism is that if you bring the customer something to the table that they did not order (in this case a bread basket), then that should be complementary. It's appearance on the bill was unexpected

Good options on the set menu, all offering excellent value. Between four of us we had most of the options available and we really enjoyed them all. Friendly helpful staff and the riverside location make this a great place to go.

Ate at Cantina del Ponte before visiting the Bridge Theatre - just 5 minutes' walk away. Lovely friendly welcome from the staff, who provided excellent service throughout the meal. When we arrived at 5:45 we were the only customers, but the restaurant was full and buzzing by the time we left at 7:15. The set menu was very good value, and despite only four choices per course, I had great difficulty in deciding what to eat - they all looked good. Eventually I settled for the veal & beef meatballs followed by roasted cod - both very good. Great views over the Thames, too.

Restaurant stops serving at 3pm on Sundays. We had to wait over 15 min for our drinks. Nice food, poor service.

Great location scenically great food. Will go back later in the evening next to enjoy a bigger crowd

Lovely two course lunch from set menu. Excellent value and great view of Tower Bridge. Would definitely go again.

I went in Cantina del ponte forum a dinner with friends and we couldn't have choose a better place!! Everything was perfect: the place is tidy and clean, the staff really welcoming and fun and the food simply amazing! The best Italian restaurant in London! One of the most charming terrace by the river with a stunning view of the Tower bridge.
From the starters to the dessert, everything was well prepared and delicious! I would like to recommend something from the menu that I liked the most, but then I should recommend the whole menu! And last, thanks to all the staff for let us have a great night, especially Manuel and Erica!
Seriously, take in consideration to have a bite there, I will definitely go there again!

Traveled over for business and dined alone. Tomash (from Hungary) saw to it that I was comfortable, helped with my wine selection, and even surprised me with a Happy Birthday serenade from the staff. He helped make my experience there, that much better. The food was fantastic! I’m glad I came back there to dine.

Everything was amazing especially the manager Antonio that made our regular day off in a special day

The price didn’t reflect the very average food.
Service was good

Food was very good and authentic. Service was attentive yet not intrusive. The Riverside location is beautiful and we had a very good evening. Overall definitely a place we will return to.

Right on the river at Shad Thames. Very good value, especially the current Evening Standard offer and pre-Theatre menus. Friendly and efficent service. Food good too. Will certainly go again.

Always good to go here, another lovely evening and the evening standard menu was delicious.

Our group of 8 had a wonderful time at Cantina del Ponte. We were there celebrating a birthday. The waiting staff really looked after us and were fantastic accommodating one of my friends who has a number of food allergies. The chefs were able to make something completely fresh which was fantastic. All food was lovely and fresh and the set lunch menu was fantastic value. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and would certainly go again.

Visited Cantina del Ponte for a pre-theatre meal before visiting the Bridge Theatre - just 5 minutes' walk away. Overall the food was enjoyable - slightly strange courgette soup for starter, followed by a good portion of grilled salmon and then Pecorino cheese for dessert. Very pleasant and efficient staff, and great views across the Thames from the outside terrace.

We were early so got a seat outside with no trouble. The food was tasty and the waiters pleasant. The Evening Standard deal was very good value. The glass of house wine that came with this was decent.

Booked the Cantina for a Monday lunch with friends visiting from overseas. We had the Evening Standard offer . I had the vegetarian penne pasta which was very delicious. The service was excellent, fortunately we pretty much had the place to ourselves as it was very quiet with only a few tables occupied. This venue overlooking the tower bridge is the icing on the cake.
Good value, honest food in a lovely setting!

Always a pleasure to come dine for a lunch or a dinner. All staff is great and the athmosphere is great. We love this place in our neighborhood.

Ottimo posto dove mangiare italiano a Londra.
Posizione spettacolare con vista Tower Bridge, parlano italiano ed il servizio è molto buono.

Il cibo è cucinato bene e con ottimi sapori, il prezzo è giusto considerando la posizione ed il fatto che siete a Londra.

Consigliato, in futuro se capitera ci tornerò sicuramente.

Once again The Cantina delivered. Excellent food, super wine, great service, and an ocean liner passing by. What more could you ask?

Lovely view of tower bridge, good food, reasonable service and the set menu offer is great. Nice ambience!

We had the evening standard set menu. Delicious and good portions. We sat on the terrace which just made it even better. Nothing better than being by the river in the summer with good food and wine. Service was attentive but not overly fussy.

always a good place to have a good italian food friendly staff and attentive service
we got a Evening standard menu which was a really good deal
good size and quality of food

definitely come back

Sunday course menu was awesome - fast, attentive service was a perfect match to the great food.

Get together for friends at short notice, service, food value for money very good

The food is quite good; nothing special. Rather annoyingly our waiter opened a bottle of wine and proceeded to overfill everyone's glass so that there was none left for the last person meaning we were forced to order another bottle. We would most likely have ordered another bottle but I was not happy.

The perfect spot on a hot day for a family reunion with a cool river breeze and stunning view, friendly and efficient service and good food.

Good value with offer, welcoming, but service a little slow

The evening was perfect and we were able to get a reservation so all good. We ate outside with a great view of tower bridge. We eat from the evening standard menu which was good but the drink was expensive.

Finally there card machine failed which mean we had to get cash which wasn’t a problem but just a bit annoying. To be fair this may have been the banks problem rather than the restaurant, I don’t know.

Great view on the really enjoyable terrace, we go for the Evening standard deal which is a really good value for money well balanced meal
Good size portion and really tasty food in a proper Italian way
Definitely go back

We had the set meal. Simple but tasty. Staff were polite and accommodating. Generally good value and nice view of tower bridge.
