We went there for lunch on Saturday as a result of this glowing review, and would have had it on the terrace.


We were so disappointed to find that the menu consisted solely of various not particularly interesting looking salads plus three dishes on bread.


The waitress did say that she would ask the chef if he could cook us something else, but we did not want to put him (I think it's a him) to the trouble, and in any case at 1pm we were the only people in the place, outside or inside, so the atmosphere was not exactly wonderful.


We decided to go elsewhere and try in the evening sometime in the hope that the menu would be more varied and/or interesting.


I realise the salads were probably in response to the very hot weather, and I like salad, but if I spend money on eating out I do expect to get offered something a bit different that I probably wouldn't make at home.

Went on Saturaday. Overall, fairly average. Courgette flowers for starters were nice but you only get 2 of them so for ?7.50 it's a little steep. Shared the courgette pasta and Stella pizza (which is actually some sort of calzone). Again, small portion for of the pasta which needed a bit more of a sauce. The pizza was probably the pick of the bunch but didnt seem to have all of the toppings listed on the menu. Service was slow and a bit chaotic. Il Mirto has nothing to fear.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
