Unassuming, good quality Italian near South Kensington Station.
It does basic pizza, pasta, and secondi dishes, and is veggie/vegan friendly (as with most Italians) -- it will do cheese-free pizza on request. Service is quick, and it's reasonably priced. The garlic bread is *huge*.
There are some outside tables, but Thurloe Place isn't exactly the most pleasant of roads to sit out on. Inside is seating at tables with plastic tablecloths, all quite crowded together but not too badly so for a London restaurant.
It certainly used to do very good pizzas as bob recalls (the Diavalo being the best). The base was thin enough even for me. The garlic bread was also very good. A better choice than the other places nearby during my time as a student.
Very busy on a Saturday night.
