Just checked their website to find the following message.


"Dear customers....

Si mangia restaurant has been aquired by Lorenzo restaurant, crystal palace and is now closed for the next 3 to 4 weeks for refurbishment and staff training. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and the short notice however we hope to be open as soon as possible with a new management team and menu. In the meantime should you wish to book at our crystal palace branch please call 020 8761 7485. We look forward to serving you again soon and si mangia wishes to thank you for your custom over the last 9 years."

We only ate in si mangia once and I ended up with food poisoning, thought the food tasted strange when eating it and commented at the time to the staff then spent all night throwing up(and my birthday:( love lorenzos so happy there will be one opening up a bit closer.

I have always enjoyed the CP Lorenzo's (they did a great lunch-time deal as I recall) - I haven't had a bad experience at Si Mangia - they were always to my mind a very old style Italian (like we had in the 70s) - none the worse for that as they delivered what they promised - but I probably prefer the more modern (regional) take on Italian food. But the staff were excellent and welcoming.


Let's hope the new ED Lorenzo's can match its CP parent.

    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?
