Have a 2 courses for 4.95 offer on (12-5pm Tues-Sat) and we went in today. very nice and child friendly and happy for the twins to share a pasta.

This place is totally brilliant for kids (and also parents!) That lunch deal is brilliant - any pizza or pasta on the menu + salad or garlic bread. Think that the food is really good and homemade too. Great place!

Completely agree, Si Mangia is very good for children, good value and really yummy food. Lovely staff too.

I have seen people enthusing but looking in when it was shut the standard menu never really caught my imagination. It really is a lovely place though.

Really??

I went there in the summer and thought the food was very mediocre. They welcome kids yes, but that doesn't make up for the dismal food. My husband had pasta which was quite nice but I had a pizza which if you'd told me it was a frozen one from Iceland I wouldn't have been surprised. I certainly won't be returning

Sorry to say I was very unimpressed with the food at Si Mangia; and I really wanted to like it because its so handy for where we live. But being child-friendly and convenient aren't good enough reasons for us to return, I don't think. Unless it has improved tremendously in the past year or so?

I was quite happy with my pizza, and the pasta looked quite nice.

I thought that the food was really nice for a local neighbourhood Italian - seemed fresh and was very tasty (and cheap!)

shame my day off work is Monday, always looking for places to feed the kids so that I don't have too! very lazy!

the new cafe opp PR common in old Electricity showroom is good value, they do half price for kids, sandwiches quiches etc ?2! lots of salad - bit wasted on mine have to say

Been eating there a occasionally for years and both kids and adults have loved it. Never eaten pizza though as my oldest has said "why eat pizza at a place that does not specialise in it" (his cue for suggesting Pizza Express) so, they eat all the other yummy stuff on the menu (they love the prawns, pasta, bruschetta and gnocci).

Afraid we went a couple of months ago following reviews we'd read on the forum (actually our first meal out for probably at least 2 years - eek!) and we were really disappointed. The food was mediocre at best - we cook as good ourselves at home - and very little in the way of meat. We used to love the Italian on East Dulwich Road and was really hoping it'd be similar.

I can see it being a good place with the kids and may go back for that. But not one for an adult meal for us.

We eat here as a family often and the food is delicious. The pizzas are delicious :)
