About this restaurant

Kid-friendly
Great for outdoor dining
Romantic

It’s all about location here at Cucina, a fabulous Italian restaurant so close to the London Eye and County Hall you can practically smell the pizza from 135 metres up above the Thames. Appropriately designed for its setting, Cucina is far less rustic than its name might suggest. Indeed the deep, masculine tones of the interior with its high stacked built-in wine racks, moody photographic prints and comfortable patio brings to mind a meeting of British gentlemen’s club and slick Roman hotel restaurant. Created to appeal to the many different types of diner who find themselves on the South Bank; from the tourists taking a meander to the pre-theatre diners heading to the Royal Festival Hall, local Londoners with kids in tow to businessmen fresh from the Shell centre or en route to Waterloo, Cucina has a relaxed, amenable atmosphere and welcoming service.

Sold as an Italian Restaurant it really isn't . It is a rather grubby cafeteria, very noisy, grim food and absolutely no ambiance. being so close to Premier Inn they don't have to try because they know they will get patrons.

When I arrived there was no reservation (although I had confirmation). I was seated, in a table to accommodate two, but I would have not given this to two people it had to ahve the chair on the side, not sitting in front of each other - this perhaps give you the gist of the size of the table and the fact that it was squeezed in not comfortable. I chose this resturant as my guest is vegetarian and the menu had several good salads for her. However these were not on the menu (along with quite a few other things). When I queried I was told this was the only menu (it stated express, but again on Opentable its not correct, its way off what is on the menu) this left ONE option for my guest to have. One toilet that is off the resturant, so queuing for the one toilet into the resturant. Its just not nice. I felt quite ill and the staff were kind to me, but apart from that I really didnt enjoy this experience at all. Not as listed!

Very accommodating as part of our party was late and they managed to rearrange for us. Food was good and reasonably priced. We were catching up and the staff did not pressure us to eat and leave. Great location for the south bank.

I felt that there wasn't much value for money. The salads were tasty but small in size for the price paid.
