Bancone Golden SquareB+

8-10 Lower James St, London W1F 9EL · Italian restaurant · The West End

Handmade pasta with creative twists in lively Soho; excellent signatures but service speed, seating comfort, and allergy handling are inconsistent.

The verdict

Bancone Golden Square delivers solid food quality anchored by standout signature pastas and appealing Soho counter seating, earning its grade B+ standing. However, quality variation in seasoning and temperature, combined with documented food safety incidents and inconsistent service pacing, prevents the higher tier. Worth visiting for the pasta, but expect occasional friction with waits and execution reliability.

One caveat: Service delays and missed drink tickets reported during busy periods
