Verdi's - London

My friend and I decided to visit Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park on a Friday night to attend the Lift Festival Depart - an interactive circus performance that takes place in the underworld. Not knowing what to expect, we decided to play it safe and have a good meal first. We ended up dining at Verdi, an Italian restaurant nearby. The Depart performance turned out to be brilliant and absolutely mesmerizing. We will definitely be returning in 2017 to see it again.

Stepney may not be overflowing with restaurants, but Verdi's is a standout option that would be a welcomed addition to any neighborhood. The cuisine is regional Italian, featuring a relatively small menu of creatively prepared dishes that are excellently executed. During a recent visit, the bratwurst with candy, pappardelle with lamb ragu, chicken in sage and white wine sauce, and fritto misto all impressed, alongside their tasty pizzas. The atmosphere is casually inviting, with soft jazz playing in the background and friendly service to top it off. Verdi's is definitely worth a visit.

Took my mother for an evening meal. According to her the following are excellent (I agree): ambience, furniture, service, food, wine, choice of background music, the peace, folded toilet paper, proximity to her house!

An Italian gem with amazing authentic food, great service, prices and friendly staff. Been a favourite spot since the first visit.

This restaurant was a wonderful little neighborhood place at Stepney GreenIt was Tuesday night and they had 4.95 pound pasta specials too.
