Superb restaurant great decor fun ambiance lovely service clever menu beautifully executed Amazing value considering the high quality Rather noisy but conversation still possible! Great wine list fair prices

Was given a very warm welcome when we arrived. Food came quickly and tasted as good as it looked. Staff were attentive at all times without being overpowering. The restaurant was relatively quiet, it was a Sunday lunchtime, but the overall atmosphere was of calm efficiency which added to the dining experience. We were there to celebrate my birthday, so the slice of cake with a candle was a nice touch, and most welcome, as I wanted a sense of occasion, but didn’t want too much fuss. Definitely didn’t want the staff, and anyone else, singing Happy Birthday. Always enjoy Cafe Murano, it’s one of our favourites, and will be returning soon.

The chicken milanese remains the best in London. However I have to say I had the Tiramasu for the first time and it was absolutely sensational. Without doubt the best I have ever eaten and by no small margin. Just incredibly good. Bravo!

This has been one the nicest dinners I have ever had in my life!! The food was exceptional, the service was great and lovely, calm setting. I do have to say the Tiramisu will live rent free in my head forever because it was THE nicest dessert ever!! Couldn't recommend this restaurant enough!!

Really great lunch here. The staff and the Maitre D’ (who was incredibly attentive) made us feel very welcome. Really interesting menu - we wanted to try everything! There is also a (cheaper) set lunch option. The seafood risotto was beautiful, as was the plaice and the minestrone soup. Lovely selection of Italian wines and excellent selection by the glass. To top it off, we had two wonderful desserts. Will definitely go back.

An exceptional experience at the St James branch. Lunch here can be cheap if you pick their two or three course menu, but as it was a treat for us, we went off the main menu. I could have picked everything off the menu, it all sounded great, and we went for three main courses: cured trout with blood orange, and porchetta; mussel Linguine, and Rigatoni with a fennel ragu; skate wings, and pork chop, with greens and fried potatoes as sides. A rosemary posset between us was all we could manage for dessert. All were excellent, and it would be difficult to pick a favourite; seemingly simple dishes, but great flavours combined and cooked to perfection. Staff were so lovely, cheery, helpful and just lovely to chat to about the dishes and choices. For the pasta course (which you can have as a main size) they brought spare plates to make it easier to share. Overall a great treat, and we'll definitely return.

Beautiful Restaurant reasonably priced and impeccable service they were amazing with our six-year-old daughter. Cannot recommend this place enough. Michele was fantastic!

I’ve eaten at some of the best restaurants in London but this place for value and quality was probably the best meal I’ve had in London. The best part was the service. The GM guiseppe was the nicest GM I’ve ever met. The most attentive and kind person who cares about he people and the job!Will be back
