About Il Bacino

Il Bacino sits opposite Tobacco Dock's dry-docked ships, a neighbourhood Italian where the crab ravioli appears in review after review — creamy, full of flavour, and apparently superb enough to warrant the £££ splurge. Highchairs are available, there's a spacious outdoor terrace that catches the sun, and buggies roll through easily. Reviewers appreciate the massive portions and the multilingual staff, particularly noting Alessandro and a cheerful waitress. The truffle cream pizza and pasta bolognese get consistent praise, while specials like lobster pasta and scallop-shrimp risotto offer good value. One diner called it "the most satisfying Western meal I had" during 31 years in London. The place fills up on weekends, so book ahead, or slip in around 4pm when it's quiet enough to feel like you've got the place to yourselves.
