This can’t really be called an Italian restaurant. It’s a shame, because the location is very advantageous for the owner.

Delicious food, old school italian atmosphere, lovely staff. One of the only italian spots close by to me in the Roehampton area and didn't disappoint. I'll be back very soon

I’ve been a regular at Don Emilio for over 7 years (and counting). Food is always delicious + you won’t find anywhere with a more uplifting and inviting atmosphere thanks to the friendly hosts. 10/10 will be going again.
