Best pasta I have tried so far in London. Superb taste at a very affordable price. £4.50 for a big of pasta? Yes! Plus the people serving and preparing the food are genuinely nice! I will definitely come back!

A proper authentic Italian cafe. I had fresh salad with sliced tomatoes and cucumbers, topped with tuna. 😋 The best Americano coffee ☕️ I've ever had. Rich, dark coffee with a frothy golden-brown crema on top, with a small patch of lighter bubbles near the center. This coffee leaves me with an aftertaste of chocolate or toffee. 🥰

I Visited Italia Uno for the first time and thought it was fantastic. Proper old school Italian café. No thrills, just a good place to get a bit of lunch and sip a coffee. I get that some people want a bit more from an Italian, probably the same folk who've never been to Italy and think all cafés and restaurants there are sophisticated and elegant. This is real. The Pasta and Panini were great and the Torta de Nonna was just as good as I've had in Italy. The food and coffee in my pictures came to little over £16. I'll be back

This is a very authentic Italian café with incredibly delicious food and unbelievably good prices. You’ll quickly forget that you’re in London, having just come from the busy Oxford Street. Instead, you’ll find yourself enjoying fresh, homemade Italian food, excellent coffee, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but the food is way better than you’d expect. The sandwiches are made with fresh, hand-cut meat, real cheese, and crisp veggies. The sun-dried tomatoes stood out—they added a ton of flavor. It’s a small, family-run spot with good portions, and at £5 for a 10-inch sandwich, it’s a great deal. Definitely one of those places you might overlook, but once you try it, you’ll get why people keep coming back. I’ll be stopping by for another sandwich next time I’m in the neighborhood.

Great spot. About £4-5 for a sandwich made with proper ingredients that taste great! They are made fresh to order so I would recommend getting there just before Midday to miss the lunch rush. Super friendly and original feel inside.

Affordable / cheap but really savory sandwiches. Excellent price for the quality of the products used. Ham and mozzarella were excellent. I Recommend if you want to watch the soccer game too

I have been coming here consistently when I come to my office near this place. It is an absolute gem in the middle of SOHO and I feel like I’m in Italy when I’m here. It’s got delicious authentic food for unbeatable prices, and the owner is incredibly nice. I am never disappointed with the melanzane alla and toasted bread for just over a fiver

Such a nice hidden gem in central London. So authentically Italian with very reasonable prices. We got the lasagna and the pastas of the day which they can do a plate of 50/50. Would highly recommend

This review is primarily based on the sandwiches made here and my overall experiences here over countless visits over the years. This is not your fancy sandwich place, this is your Italian hole in the wall, fresh deli meat on bread kinda place with a cappuccino on the side kinda place. Whatever the Italian version of a greasy spoon is, this is it (but without the grease). Family owned and run they make top tier sandwiches and lovely coffee at a price you shouldn't be able to get in central London (I'm surprised more students are coming here for their fill). Some of the other stuff outside of the sandwiches can be a bit hit or miss, but for the price I don't think you're justified to complain. My only fault would be sometimes, closer to the evening they run out of the nice soft bread they use and the alternative doesnt quite hit the same, but still this place is far far better than a lot of the other sandwich places nearby and it's open, somehow, pretty much all day. Oh and the interior is just a real quirky mix of everything, with TVs playing 3 different Italian channels at any one time, almost always one with football. I find its nicest to sit outside, but often I'm just grabbing and going for lunch.
