Like most people I tried for a few months to get a booking and failled.
In the end I opted for a Tuesday night a few weeks ago. The food is simple - and depends on great ingredients and precise preparation & cooking. All our food was great.

An exciting wine list full of wines you won't come across very often and that spans prices from humble to £100 odd.

Staff were great, very freindly and helpful, I suspect the guy below me is either a tough customer or went on some disastrous evening when everyone was under pressure.

A real gem - but everyone knows that and keeps blocking the tables!!

Very overpriced, service mediocre and rather rude and disobliging, Food OK, does not warrant all the "in crowd" attention.

What a great dining experience I had, the food was amazing - the textures and the simplicity of the dishes were superb. The service was great, our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel very welcome.

I cannot recommend this dining experience enough and will definitely be visiting again soon. A definte must for foodies!

I went to Trullo on the recommendation of a friend. Having eaten at both Moro and River Cafe I anticipated great cuisine. It was dissapointing.

The anti-pasta I had was less than a mouthful. My mackeral was burnt and certainly not fresh. It tasted and looked defrosted. The home made cherry ice cream lacked any flavour of fresh cherries.

The music was unneccessary loud and hindered any decent flow of conversation. Apart from the attentive service,the entire experience lacked credibility of favourable reviews I had read before going.

I have been to Trullo twice now, and also live around the corner. Whilst it is true that they are still finding their feet, (the awning outside only went up last night!) one might forgive some service issues, given that the food is constantly of the highest order and changes daily. Service is charming, the produce outstanding and it is so refreshing to be able to choose wine in the knowledge that the uplift is always no more than £10. Jordan is a perfect host, and so we will go often and report back!

4 of us went on opening night; advised when we ordered that the fish hadn't yet arrived; however worth the wait. Very busy and they had under-ordered. Microscope needed for sea bass but made up for with free salted caramel ice cream. The veal cheek an absolute winner. Service suave and very old-etonian. We'll be back

1st visit- We were extremely impressed by the quality of the food–delicious fresh pasta with rabbit and ravioli oozing with ricotta with delicate flavourings of orange and perfectly cooked squid with tomatoes.The only gripe was lack of service and extremely stressed staff. Fine,given it was opening week. Overall,a wonderful meal at good prices.

2nd visit-the quality of the food was good but not as melt in your mouth tasty as the first visit, although definitely above average.The bruschetta with peas and mint was refreshing and wholesome.The pappardelle with prosciutto was delicious. However,the massive problem was the portion sizing.The ravioli with ricotta has been reduced by both number and filling to look like it’s missing the filling! These are starters but given prices also increased 40%,we all agreed that the price (£7) for 4 tiny anorexic looking ravioli is outrageous. So disappointed, had high hopes but looks like they are already hiking up prices and reducing portions sizes.

Have just got home from Trullo. Food, wine and service were excellent considering it was a busy Saturday night in their first week of opening at that. As the delightful head waitress said, `We are still finding our feet` The chilled minted pea soup was gorgeous as was the sea bream with samphire. My partner had the grilled squid to start and pork chop , both excellent. The sweets were super , especially the pistachio ice cream which was very nutty indeed indeed. At last something of note has taken the place of the old Gill Wing Cafe. Good luck to all concerned!

I went to Trullo during their first week, on a Friday night. I live just around the corner so was quite excited that after a very long time of the venue being closed something was happening there.

The menu looked surprisingly simple and unadventurous for a place trying to make an impact in their first week. But be no fooled by this. The dishes are actually so much more than it appears on the menu.

There was, however, one thing seriously wrong with the place. Service...or rather the lack of it.

As I live just round the corner I hope this place lasts and I wish them well. I will go back to give them a second chance. However, no matter how relaxed we islingtonians might be, we expect more than just good food in a restaurant – we want good service. One cannot go well without the other and hopefully, the service will arrive at Trullo soon.
