Kos to Become

Greek place on Melbourne Grove opened and didn't last long Louisa. Not prime location right enough, but a Greek it was.

Locale was an Italian restaurant which has branches In Fulham and Blackheath.. Both Affluent areas.

The Dulwich branch did not work. I used to drink there. The restaurant was always empty..

Perhaps 'Real' Italian food is not as popular as a handful of people here on EDF would make it out to be.

For me, Italian Cuisine is probably the most boring of all Cuisines. But that's just me.

and yes before anyone says it..yes "I don't have to go there."

Locale was run by morons

If you want good Italian food, then Burro E Salvia do some fine pasta, and you can sit in now

I still haven't found an Italian restaurant in ED that can hold a candle to Hannah's IMOP

I SHALL await this new opening with great expectations whilst mourning the move of Koz to beckenham,where I can't just nip up the road for chicken with spinach, pancake and cream (koz special)

Some interesting opinions from first time posters in this thread...

Il Gardino Italian Restaurant in Blenheim Grove has been around for over 25 years and is very popular

Locale was awful ! I had a lasagne there once, it was two layers of pasta swimming around in a bit of tomato sauce with a few bits of mince, the sides of the plate were spattered with burnt sauce from where it was put in a micro wave. We got the manager over and he tried to tell me it was how authentic lasagne was served. I then told him he was trying to pull the wool over the wrong person being a chef who worked under an often angry sicilian head chef, who would have kicked him right in the "Puglia's" if he'd heard that ! It was then we got a free bottle of wine :)

Sad to see Koz go, I've had a couple of birthdays there and the owner always shook me by the hand when I went in and showed us to our table.

Be interested to see what the new place brings to the Lane.

I believe the owner manager of Koz

May of been Italian . He and none of

His serving staff seemed to speak Turkish

Koz was so busy, the food was delicious and service came with a smile. I'm so sad to see it go.

I do love pasta so I'm glad to see an Italian (not just pizza) restaurant opening. Wish it was in addition to Koz though.

Koz takeaway & Oddono's & wine from La Cave de Bruno = good night in!

Hi folks. I've been to Olivelli on The Cut in Waterloo and it's great quality food that does more than just pizza. I hope this one cuts the mustard!
