L'Ulivo Restaurant on Irvin street WC1 is a partly hidden classically Italian restaurant nestling amongst some of the cheaper tourist venues of Leicester Square.
Boasting outside tables to sit in the sun and watch the world, Irving Street is also pedestrian-only and therefore avoids all the traffic fumes of the area.
Inside is a lovely hotch potch of old brick walls, ancient wall lights, very Italian mirrors, wines and high ceilings. All well laid out with tables that can cater for most party sizes from couples to dinner for groups of twenty plus.
An open plan pizza oven sits at the end of the long bar and you can watch your food going in, while having a typical Italian wine and then tuck into pizza or pasta served with fresh salad or vegetables.
It is the perfect place for a quick bite before heading off to any of the many theatres surrounding Leicester Square.
The whole restaurant seats around 80 people and the food starts from £7.00 per head and the friendly and attentive staff are always willing to please.
Coffee, lunch, or early evening dinner, it the perfect place to enjoy great tasting Italian food in homespun surroundings at reasonable prices.

"My sister and I went on a Tuesday night and it was relatively quiet, but we still had to wait a while to be served. However, the staff were polite and the food was very nice - tasty and good sized portions.
We did get bread and olives (and the cover charge on the bill) but I'd prefer not to be given them unless you ask for them. Service was additional. I would go back, as the food was nice (I'd recommend the seafood spaghetti) and good value with the tastecard.

"Nice pizzas, average starters and clean restaurant but it's definitely one for the tourists given it's location next to Leicester Square. A cover charge was added to the bill without any mention of it but the usual cover items (bread, butter, oils, olives etc) were not provided. Pricey wine but still a good deal on food with the TL card.
