Cuillo’s is great authentic northern Italian food. The menu has a good range though could be changed more often. The pasta is excellent! Great ambiance topped off by wonderful service! A local gem.

Delicious food, nice décor(even if it is a little cliché Italian), reasonable prices and really friendly staff. The menu is excellent with lots of choice, including a few Italian classics. Doesn’t do the usual British thing of serving anglophile Italian food, but keeps it ‘tipico’. This is always nice, since we often get a pretty poor version of Italian cuisine thanks to the likes of Pizza Express and Bella Italia. Good, well stocked bar too. I didn’t have a coffee but I assume they know their stuff. Overall, an excellent experience. The waiter was even happy to let me practice my substandard Italian too!

Great little Italian local. Really friendly staff that always greet you. It feels like a proper Italian restaurant should.

love it love it love it! Italian food — not complicated(the menu hasn’t really changed for years — but I kind of like that!) The pasta and pizzas are all good, the wine(chianti a personal favourite) is well priced, and the service is just fantastic — so friendly. Probably our favourite restaurant in Balham — we just keep coming back!

Great authentic Italian food! With authentic Italians serving it! A hidden gem in Balham, this little Italian restaurant does nothing but delight my taste buds every time I go. In fact I’m going there tonight. Sunday through Thursday they do half price on all pizza and pasta(and let me tell you it is delicious!!) Great bargain! The food is always fantastic and so tasty; I haven’t found a bad dish yet. The staff are amazing, they are very helpful and friendly. It is a very cosy little family owned place.

A friendly local place with great food — my wife loves the pizza. Much better than any of the chains

This is a nice, cosy little Italian restaurant on the wrong side of the common. That is, it’s on the Balham side of Clapham South where the hoards don’t hang as much. I particularly like this place in the summer as they put loads of seats outside and serve up delicious salads and crisp wines. Inside, the décor is very traditional, with pictures on the wall and rustic tablecloths. The Italian staff are masters of making you feel very at home. Their homemade ravioli with spinach and ricotta is sensational — the best I’ve tasted, and they do amazing baked aubergine for starters. If you find yourself in Balham needing a bite to eat, I’d recommend you pop in here. The prices are reasonable, staff make certain that you’re happy and full, and the food is decent.
