   We used to frequent this restaurant almost weekly when we lived in the area over a decade ago, so during a recent nostalgic visit to Balham, we decided to return and relive the experience. In terms of food, it did not disappoint, the menu still offers a diverse selection to suit a range of tastes, and while prices are on the higher side, the quality of the ingredients makes it a justifiable indulgence. That said, the overall experience was tarnished by two deeply disappointing elements. First, the service was inconsistent. While the older staff and the owner made us feel welcome, a younger waiter displayed a noticeably poor attitude, giving the impression that serving guests was more of a burden than a job. Worse still was what happened when it came time to pay the bill. We requested a specific amount to be added as a gratuity, a clear and simple gesture of appreciation. Instead, the owner added double that amount without asking or informing us, and then attempted to obscure the total when presenting the card machine. When we noticed the discrepancy and pointed it out, there was no apology, no explanation, only a nonchalant shrug. This behaviour was not only unprofessional, it felt dishonest. It left us questioning whether this was an isolated incident or part of a broader pattern. If this kind of overcharging happens regularly, even with a fraction of tables, it would represent a serious ethical issue and a significant misuse of customer trust. What should have been a joyful return to a cherished place has instead left a bitter aftertaste. We will not be returning, and we will certainly be warning others. It’s a real shame to see a once-beloved restaurant fall so far short of the standard it once upheld.

   The deep fried calamari were crisp and a good portion with a lovely aioli . The scallops were excellent. For the mains; spaghetti alle vongole and marinara with squid ink. From the specials; mussels and prawns with tomato sauce and one with white wine sauce. All were exceptional. We all shared the tiramisu which was very good. The staff are all very friendly and it was brilliant service all night. It's a lovely atmosphere with outstanding food and would highly recommend.

   One of the best hidden gems in Balham. Always worth a stop for great food and terrific wines.

   I recently had the pleasure of returning to Ciullõsteria, and it was another memorable experience. The menu offers a delightful variety of dishes, each sounding more tempting than the last. After much deliberation, I opted for the home-made seafood pasta, and it did not disappoint. The flavours were perfectly balanced, and each bite was a burst of culinary excellence. My family was equally impressed with their selections, and we all agreed that the food was nothing short of spectacular. I can't wait to return!

   The food, wine and ambiance were excellent. My wife and I were celebrating our first evening out after the birth of our daughter 7 months ago. It did not disappoint!

   Delicious food - in particular the truffle pasta - and lovely staff and ambiance, also (unbidden) brought my wife a little treat for her birthday. Love this place, looking forward to coming back again soon
