Ambiente (Finchley)

• One of the best Italian restaurants in North London
• The outdoor seating is a nice option except for the occasional whiff of chemicals from the next door nail salon
• I had the carbonara and was pretty chuffed with my choice
• The Hawaiian pizza and salmon linguine were also enjoyed by the rest of the table
• I went there this evening on Valentine's Day with my partner
• We came into contact with Captain Nemo
• Not sure if he is the owner or person pushes the self destruct button on "
• I was told by the Captain that I was ineligible to use the card because if I had read the menu (no mention of that on loyalty card)
• Retained me as a continued regular customer (and of course all the recommendations I have given to friends to go there and who are no doubt regular customers too
• PS The staff are great but Captain Nemo Nah
• So i visited this restaurant because it was getting late on a Friday night and everyone was in the mood for a pizza
• Nice small place with decent food
• The starters were better than the mains
• Who am i to say what is and isn't a good pizza
