Emilia's Crafted Pasta (Canary Wharf)

Emilia’s at Canary Wharf offers a wonderful taste of fresh Italian food in a truly wholesome and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment I arrived, the restaurant felt inviting, with a relaxed yet vibrant setting that made it perfect for enjoying a leisurely meal. The ambience strikes a great balance between modern and cosy, making it an ideal spot for both casual dining and a great place to catch up with friends. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, creating an experience that felt genuinely warm rather than rushed. Their enthusiasm for the menu and willingness to help made the visit even more enjoyable. For my starter, I had the Olives, which was marinated, flavourful, and a great introduction to the quality of ingredients Emilia’s is known for. For the main course, I chose the pistachio pesto pasta, which was the highlight of the meal. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the pistachio pesto was rich, creamy, and beautifully balanced without being overwhelming. It tasted fresh, indulgent, and nutty. To finish, I had the cheesecake for dessert. It was light yet satisfying, with just the right level of sweetness to end the meal on a high note. Overall, Emilia’s Canary Wharf delivers delicious Italian food, a wholesome atmosphere, and outstanding service that makes you want to return.

Gorgeous little restaurant with incredible pasta dishes including great vegan and vegetarian options. The pistachio pesto is my favourite, its absolutely delicious, and the cocktails were just as good! The staff were super friendly, the restaurant was spotless, and the place had a really relaxed friendly vibe. I took my parents here and they loved their dishes, so much so they haven’t stopped recommending it to people since. Thanks for such a lovely evening. We’re already looking forward to coming back.
