Canteen

This Italian restaurant in Notting Hill comes from the same team behind pub hits The Pelican and The Hero. Here, they brought in two ex-River Cafe chefs to create a classic Italian menu that's going down very well with the locals. Part of that is because it offers such quality Italian cooking at fantastic prices. Note that it's walk-in only, but that means your chances of getting a table are pretty good at off-peak times.
