For those who like Italian food, not the Anglo-Italian of
Pizza Express or ASK, but the authentic, messy, ‘no cutlery allowed’ style of
real Italian pizza, then Vincenzo’s is for you. With 44 years’ worth of postcards
covering the walls from across the globe and bottles hanging from the ceiling,
it’s the kind of place you go when in want of something a bit heart-warming.
I have to be honest, from outside the restaurant I was a
little worried about what to expect. They have clearly turned their attention
to the indoor décor and left a little to be desired outside. However, despite
the unwelcoming front door (which on our visit was accompanied by a chef having
a cheeky cigarette) the restaurant is adorably welcoming. The food is fairly
cheap for large portions and incredibly tasty and the service is quick and
friendly. Although it seems more a haunt for the regular customer, we were made
to feel very at home as well. What’s more, if you’re so inclined, it even has a
view over Park Street!
Vincenzo’s manages to take you away from the Café Rouge/Jamie’s
Italian repetitive nature of Park Street and welcomes you into a tiny bit of
Italia only a few yards away. Don’t expect Michelin stars, but do expect a
smiling waitress with an Italian accent and a lot of (2006) Italian footballers
pinned on the walls.
