Portobello Garden Restaurant
italian · London W11 1LR
solid italian cooking in a space people actually want to be in—that's the trade-off here.
Ten places worth leaving the house for. Harry reads the review-site noise, spots the tourist traps, and hands over a shortlist before the kettle's boiled.
Be honest with him. He doesn't judge.
One tap. Anything good, properly nearby, open right now.
