Circolo Popolare London Reviews from The Last Year
A truly disappointing experience
I invited 2 guests to say thank you for looking after me when I was ill. It was to be a special treat. The restaurant was their choice; I did not check the reviwes. I booked well in advance - some 2-3 weeks. The decor was encouraging, we were put in the back room but that didn't matter; the problem was the tables were very close to each other and the place too noisy to make a conversation. The food was less than mediocre, the waiters wanted to get on with serving and removed plates at random, actually to get attention from a waiter we had to rise and go and look for one. Far to much hurry to get in a second sitting. Prices were silly, including an extra charge for milk for a cup of tea. I was asked for feedback and gave it; I was offered appologies and a replacement meal. Having tried to book it twice I had no reply. The place is a gimmick, I eat out a lot, I havent had such a disappointing experience in years.
Dissapointing
Have tried several times to book and finally managed to get a table. The restaurant ambiance is nice and the service was good but that’s about it. We shared a couple of starters…calamari was cold, rubbery and small portion. We went for the carbonara for the main. This is cooked in the kitchen and served from a cheese at the table…it was cold, gloopy and stuck together. The staff were helpful to resolve things but took the shine off the experience. Food was very disappointing and an expensive lunch. A real shame. Wouldn’t go again.
Rip off
Very pushy service. It started when we were asked for water and the waitress had already the water bottle in her hand opening it while asking, so I felt it was pushed on me and didnt even have the choice to ask for tap water. We ordered two carbonara and two glasses of wine, the waitress didnt ask which size so I assumed small. When the bill came I was very surprised when she said I got medium glasses (large price difference). My carbonara was more like a soup and the sauce wasnt properly cooked. You can pay the bill via QR code but be aware they charge you extra £1.30 for this „service“, I asked to pay by card. Lastly, when I asked the waitress why the service charge is 13.25% when it‘s usually 12.5%, she replied that from Jan 2024 Westminster Council increased the rates and she only gets £2 of this……. (I‘m sure we all are aware that westminster council is not telling restaurants what they want to charge for their service.) All in all will not come back and not recommend this place.
Fun place, good vibe but mediocre food
Was excited to try this popular restaurant, it’s always booked up and looks great. The atmosphere inside has a nice buzz and the decorations are awesome. However the food was all pretty mediocre on taste, we ordered 3 different starters and 3 different mains, oh and a couple of desserts too. Only the truffle pasta stood out. Can’t give any more than three stars because ultimately the food has to be the star of the show.
last minute booking made a great lunch choice
Just visited today. Tried to book online but no slots for desired time. Thought I'd try and walk in and again no slots, however, the friendly hostess suggested coming back at 3pm again to ask. As it was over 2 hours away thought Id try somewhere else but nothing too my fancy. After some drinks at the Charlotte Street hotel (pricey) I tried my luck again and was kindly given a place for 2. Our lovely server Alessia was very efficient and knowledgable. We were served quickly and the food choices we had were delicious and filling (2 starters and 2 mains) Lovely atmosphere (great playlist) and warm and friendly staff. Really enjoyed talking to Lorenzo who again was so efficient and gave us advice on the new additions to the chain-Jacuzzi and Carlotta. An afternoon well spent, I can't wait to go back and try different menu options as well as checking our Lorenzos suggestions,
Good food, good decoration of the place. They add the tip without asking the customer.
Good food, better decoration of the place. We didn't like the detail they had of adding the tip without asking the customer. We asked that it be taken away from us, since we consider that 14% is abusive. The waiters only brought the food and drinks, the order and payment was made through the mobile application. They were not at all attentive and the service could be greatly improved. The employees are paid by the owners of the premises and not by the customers. It is worth going to this restaurant except for the detail of the tip that we do not see as fair and that is the reason why I lowered the score on TripAdvisor.
Great place
Great place that gets busy. We managed to turn up and get a table but if going again we would book ahead. Atmospheric place with an interesting menu and quality wines that are not over priced. Great service, friendly staff and not over priced for what we got.
A Sweet Haven: London's Premier Dessert Dining Experience
This is the best dessert-only restaurant I've ever visited. It's rare to find a place in London that welcomes you to enjoy just desserts. We decided to try our luck tonight and were not disappointed. The staff provided excellent service and made sure we were well taken care of. I highly recommend it to anyone with a sweet tooth.
Dessert. Capital of London. Secret.
This is THE place for dessert in London. They LOVE having guests just coming for dessert. It’s a huge secret. Go tiramisu
Watch out for big service charge, + more charges for using the app, tap water and an additional tip...
6 of us went. The food was just OK. We shared a couple of starters of Focaccia which was fine, but choice of food was very limited. I didn't fancy pizza as you always get too much and the pasta dishes didn't sound very exciting so I had the cuttlefish as a main as there was no seafood risotto, which is usually my go-to meal at Italian restaurants. I had never eaten cuttlefish before and when I ordered it our waiter warned me that it was quite chewy! But I went with it anyway and it WAS a bit chewy, but it was very nice with just potatoes and rocket. Not a lot, but fine for me. The rest of our party had pasta and pizza dishes. I reckon I got the best meal, especially when I saw the sharing platter - for 2 - of carbonara. £36 for two - and not much of it... But there you go. I had the tiramisu for dessert and that was delicious. Service was good, and I appreciated the waiter's advice on my cuttlefish, so I would have given a 'very good' grade, but when we paid, we used the QR code - to save the staff doing it I guess - so I wasn't very happy when I noticed that the TAP WATER cost a pound (that's never happened before), together with a service charge of 13.5%. But continuing to payment, we then got a 'checkout fee' for £2.69 on top - for using the App. What's THAT for? We are saving the staff doing it!. By that time we were ready to go so didn't want to start again, so accepted that, but THEN i noticed the bill had gone up ANOTHER £6 - for another tip I think... There were little boxes and the £6 one was selected! With this one. you had the option to tab to zero, so I got out of that one at least. But having to pay 13.5% + £1 for tap water + £2.69 for using a QR Code + trying to take an additional tip is a cheek as far as I am concerned. So, average for me. It was a nice place with a great atmosphere but I certainly wouldn't go again if I had my choice. I don't mind paying a wodge for average food in London, but don't like to walk out of a restaurant feeling short-changed.
Amazing place to just enjoy life!!!
“4.5 circles” if that was available as I only had one “suggestion” (which may be irrelevant to some). Overall, what a gem of a place to dine, savor, laugh, live and just be. We ordered the beef carpaccio, drama pizza, Ragu pasta and the lemon cake (of course!). All items were tasty and not over or under salted (as some reviews had stated). Pasta was al dente, pizza dough fresh and all flavors juxtaposed perfectly (esp the Ragu!). Kyle (who was “just” our food runner) was the absolute best! Please, please, please allow him to flourish and be a server (or whatever he wants to be). No doubt he will bring 10000% to the establishment. Alexandra was also a delight. She went above and beyond in helping us choose our dishes. As a hospitality employer, cloning 100 of Kyle and Alexandras would make any restaurant a success. The only suggestion I have is to have a staff member available to assist with wine selections. With such a vast selection to choose from, a person is needed to answer more technical questions. I selected what I thought was an “upgraded” Valpolicella and didn’t enjoy the wine. Technically, it wasn’t corked/bad so I just consumed it. It would have been unfair to send it back. Had someone been on hand to suggest something more in my taste, perhaps the Tignanello would have won that evening. But again; minor detail in what was truly a delightful evening!!!!
Pizza from the Big Mamma Group continues to hold the record
Pizza from the Big Mamma Group continues to hold the record of the best I've ever had. The flavors are fresh and the dough is fantastic. The ambiance of Circolo Popolare creates a fun and unique experience. We tried the Carbonara for the first time, and revisited the popular Mafaldine al Tartufo. I would recommend either (or both)!
Awful restaurant.
Nobody offered to take our coats, the tables are so close together like a pig breeding factory farm. You can hear every word the people next to you are saying. It's a mission to get in the seat without bumping things or people. Table is also very small, boring menu, boring food. This place is marketed as something high end but is basically an over priced Bella italia with worse food. The bathrooms are dark and dingy, very small as well, can't even check your makeup in there. Will not return to this place.
Absolutely breathtaking ambiance.
I have been waiting to come here for what seems like forever. So happy we got to go! The food was divine. They ran out of a few things and I wanted carbonara, but the seafood pasta didn't disappoint. The drinks were great. The atmosphere really just takes the cake though.
Circolo Popolare, nestled in the heart of London, is an
Circolo Popolare, nestled in the heart of London, is an Italian dining haven that seamlessly blends aesthetics, flavors, and a dash of spectacle. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted by the enchanting sight of thousands of bottles adorning the walls, setting the stage for a culinary experience like no other. The interior of Circolo Popolare is a visual feast, with every corner thoughtfully designed to captivate the senses. The charming atmosphere creates a perfect backdrop for an Italian culinary journey, and the attention to detail is evident in every facet of the decor. Our culinary adventure began with a delightful selection of mozzarella and olives, a perfect prelude to the flavors that awaited us. The mozzarella was fresh and creamy, while the olives provided a savory kick, setting a high standard for the courses to come. The pasta dishes, the heart and soul of any Italian restaurant, truly shone at Circolo Popolare. Opting for the one where they prepare the pasta in a giant cheese wheel in front of you was a decision that elevated the dining experience. The theater of the process added a touch of excitement, and the resulting dish was a symphony of flavors. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the cheese coating each strand was a decadent addition that left us craving for more. What sets Circolo Popolare apart is not just the exceptional food but the overall experience. The attentive and knowledgeable staff further enhances the dining journey, providing recommendations and insights that add a personal touch to the visit. In summary, Circolo Popolare is a gem in the London culinary scene. The combination of a visually stunning ambiance, delectable dishes, and a touch of culinary theatrics makes it a standout destination for Italian cuisine enthusiasts. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend it, as it offers an immersive and unforgettable Italian dining experience. Bravo!
Made reservations at this restaurant based upon TikTok
Made reservations at this restaurant based upon TikTok reviews. Beautifully decorated during the holidays and lively atmosphere. Pizza was on point! Highly recommend and great restaurant for larger groups.
The most immaculate, food experience I have had yet to date.
I found insane recommendations along Instagram and TikTok for this place, but was unable to make a reservation, two months in advance as recommended. I decided to stop by right when they opened in hopes of grabbing a table, and I was successful! I only had to wait about five minutes and was able to be seated and served immediately . Server made lots of recommendations and I ultimately ended up going with the crab pasta which was so simple yet complex I don't think I've still been able to completely process it. The vibes in this place is amazing. I recommend going with the large groups that you can try multiple things and share as I went by myself And did not want to waste such a large amount of food.
Top stars for ambiance a service! Can only say for what
Top stars for ambiance a service! Can only say for what we ordered for the carbonara, that you have to order in pairs of two. The cheese wheel is impressive, but not as chessy as I'd hoped. The portion was just right, as we had the carbonara and a shared salad. Be sure to get a reservation online as they can be difficult to book weeks in advance! It's also easy to divide a check through their QR code provided on your table. Overall, great place to dine in at night, with amazing decor and great ambiance and impeccable service and with pretty good food. A bit overhyped for carbonara, but overall, it was a great time. Also, on the pricer side so I'd really be back if someone I was traveling with wanted to try this place.
Incredibly captivating decor.
Service was quick and friendly. The menu was extensive and my daughter and I found it difficult to settle on a few tasty items. We would definitely go back.
Such a cute aesthetic here! Loved the vibes and ambiance,
Such a cute aesthetic here! Loved the vibes and ambiance, food was yummy but some of the portions were small. Service was great. Def worth the hype
I really liked this spot.
The truffle pasta was pretty good and the pizza that has pepperoni and sausage was nice and flavorful. Everyone also really liked the crust on it. I wish the pizza came cut though. Make a reservation for this place. We went on a Monday night and it was packed!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Appointment
I was waiting on the transfer for name but it hasn’t happened yet and my reservation is tonight , will it be an issue that is hasn’t changed into my name yet
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
