Anacapri Restaurant

This independent, unassuming little Italian gem tucked away on a side street, out of sight from the throng of tourists in this area of London, provided a super welcome departure from the totally awkward single dining experiences I’m becoming accustomed to as a single diner in the UK. There was a warm welcome, a nice table in a prime spot, bread sticks and crudités on the table, and completely non-​pushy, sincere, and jovial but exactly precise fine dining service by the whole team present on the floor, which included a gentleman that appeared to be the owner, or at least the manager. Absolutely reasonably priced, especially for this area, and the amount and quality of food exceeded that of much more expensive places I’ve dined in London. My food was great for sure, but the first class service and warm atmosphere are what would entice me back to this place next time I’m in London, even though I may not be anywhere near its location.

Had a fantastic work lunch here on a Friday afternoon. Very attentive service from a bunch of quirky Italians. They were always joking around, but in a good way. Made the experience very entertaining.
I had the smokes salmon starter, which was nice. Other options from my colleagues included prawns and calamari which looked even better than mine.
For main course had Milanese veal with spaghetti. They bring sides of fried potatoes and veg too– very generous!
They then parade all the desserts out so you can’t really say no. Profiteroles were great.
Will definitely come back next time in London.

After being in London for 4 days and enjoying traditional English fare we decided to try Italian and Anacapri was a great choice. The service was great! The table was full of goodies — olives, carrots, celery, bread, garlic bread — and our entrees were delicious! Spaghetti Ragu, penne with scallops, liguini vongole and tagliatelle al crème with spinach. Yum! The atmosphere made us feel like we were in Little Italy, in London. The Chianti was a pleasant touch too!

We ate here three nights and had desert here another night. Everything we ate was tasty. The food is not fancy but it reminded us of The great food we ate in Italy. staff is great: very friendly ane the service was great.

Wow, I love this place. If you are a bit older, want a friendly atmosphere, proper old fashioned food with great portions then this is for you. It is not cheap, but the great service, experienced highly capable waiters and a lovely homely atmosphere made it well worth it.

My work colleagues and I regularly visit this restaurant! The staff are always friendly and accomodating and the food is delicious. I love all the garlic bread/bread+butter/croudetes they bring to the table while youre waiting for your meal!

My favourite London restaurant, tucked away just off Baker Street. I go for my birthday (just before Christmas) every year and I can honestly say I have never been disappointed.
It is reasonably priced and you get a lot of food for your money. I would recommend the antipasti starter (which is easily enough for two people) and one of their delicious steaks for main.
The staff are friendly, attentive and never rush you. The complimentary glass of limoncello at the end of my last visit was a welcome surprise.

I had dinner at Anacapri. I had gaspacho, calamari and Vongole pasta. Gaspacho was alright but calamari had so much bread coated that it tasted like Japanese tempura. Also, my vongole was not with wine sauce but tomato sauce, naturally I thought it was not my dish.
The waiter was a bit odd and sometimes rude in a way he would made racial jokes, probably out of ignorance but still not pleasant.
I don’t think I would go back to Anacapri for pasta.

Anacapri is an absolute gem of an Italian restaurant tucked away from Baker Street. If I was not tagging along with a bunch of regulars to Anacapri, I would have never found the place.
The restaurant is quite the traditional Italian restaurant, with not much frills and fuss, just simply wonderful Italian food and service. The décor is cosy and simple, but tasteful. As it was wonderful weather, we were given a lovely set of tables outside in the sunshine where we shared a few bottles of wine before dinner. They also brought out a few complimentary starters, including veggies with a nice balsamic dressing and garlic bread. For my main I enjoyed a scallop plate that was to die for. The sauce was incredible, DRENCHED in garlic, which is what I love most. On the side was a great selection of veggies that were delicious. Paired with the wine and the summer sunshine, it was perfection.
Yes, the food at Anacapri is incredible. If you are looking for a great Italian meal at a reasonable price this is your place. But what really sets this place apart is the exceptional service. We were well taken care of and we had multiple servers as well as the restaurant owner constantly making sure we were happy.
We dined for hours and until late into the night. We ended the evening with limoncello… mmm. Just lovely.

The one thing that you have to watch out for with this place is that they add both a cover charge and a mandatory charge for bread and butter — whether you want it or not! It may seem like a quibble but it strikes me as slightly unfair to diners on a budget. Aside from that, the food is good and the place obviously has some devoted regulars — always a good sign!

A great find off Baker Street. Very intimate and cosy. The Italian menu has all you would expect from an Italian restaurant, however the best bit of this restaurant is the lovely attentive staff. A new find and I loved it!

My partner and I went here for a valentines day meal a while back and the food was lovely. The service on that night was very good too, the staff even found the time to put bunches of flowers in water for the customers.
Very good value for money if you’re ordering pasta dishes, but the meat dishes get a bit more expensive. There is a lovely atmosphere and the staff were very friendly and would go out of their way to assist you.
