Best Contemporary Italian Restaurants in Loughton

Excellent meal as always, have been going to B&V for years and the quality and service has always been outstanding. Highly recommend

Another wonderful evening at this great restaurant, food was beautifully presented and accompanied by a fantastic Sardinian red wine. The staff were all super-friendly, and our guests were really impressed by the experience.

This was a birthday outing, and my second time here, I mostly enjoyed the night and overall service and hospitality was great - I had a big group of 12 and I would have preferred to be seated near the DJ area like I requested 1 week before my booking but I can understand the place was very busy and packed. Cost wise it’s an expensive place but that’s due to the proximity of location. The only negative experience was one of the security guards trying to enforce the 2 hour rule on my group after spending 1.7k - sometimes you need to use logic on when to do this and it was a late booking so there wasn’t anyone waiting for our table. Good birthday overall and would recommend to others.

Delicious food,, friendly staff abd great atmosphere. Perfect experience, very happy Elephant has come to Clapton. We’ll be back

Really lovely restaurant, perfectly placed for any of the hotels at the western end of the ExCel. Food was absolutely delicious and the ambience was extremely relaxed. Would definitely go back.
