Square Meal Review of Frantoio ?

‘A must’ for its down-home atmosphere & rustic Italian food, Frantoio has been ploughing its furrow in World’s End for years, although there are signs that its form is starting to dip, with gripes about ‘arrogant staff’ & ‘bland’ cooking surfacing among the regular plaudits. Even so, it regularly pulls in a motley crew of Chelsea senior citizens, footie fans & families, all drawn by its quaint, quirky charms, competitive prices & honest trattoria grub – from mussels cooked with tomato & basil to spaghetti alla vongole or calf’s liver with butter & sage. On a summer’s day, with the windows flung open, it can feel ‘like another country’. The wine list is packed with Chiantis & other treats from the homeland, while set menus (two courses for £15) are very popular.

    londonfoodaholic :: REVIEW: Frantoio Ristorante, King

    Frantoio on the King’s Road has been providing the Worlds End locals with Italian fare for years now. But mainly to its devout Chelsea senior citizens. This is your typical Italian trattoria, from the décor, to the staff it all reminds me of being back in Italy, dated and a bit 1980’s...
