Prima Sapori d'ItaliaA-

Tavistock St, London WC2E 7PG · Italian restaurant, Bar, Coffee shop · The West End

A lively, authentic Italian spot in Covent Garden with crowd-pleasing pizzas, classic pastas, and warm service—great for groups and families, but expect some inconsistency and moderate prices.

Our take

Prima Sapori d'Italia delivers solid neighborhood Italian dining through strong food quality and attentive service, anchored by an excellent central London location near Covent Garden theaters. However, occasional inconsistency in execution and tight seating during peak hours prevent grade A territory—this is reliable comfort food rather than destination-level Italian dining.

One caveat: Some diners report inconsistent food quality, especially with pasta doneness and seasoning.
