I recently enjoyed an amazing early evening cicchetti and drinks at Girasole (I believe this evening event is a new addition for them). The food was delicious, though it took us some time to decide on what we wanted. Once we did, everything was really tasty and truly representative of Italy. We had olives and small biscuits (I can't remember the name), a sampler pizza (the best pizza I have had in a long time), a good selection of arancini, sampler pasta dishes, Aperol Spritz, and more. The food, drinks, and price were all great. I highly recommend Girasole and will definitely be returning. Many thanks.
So impressed with the amount and quality of food. I had spaghetti with Basel and Tomato and spaghetti Sicilian. It was beautifully cooked and the sauces were delicious. The portions were above average. We had lemon cake and a sponge cake for dessert which were freshly made and moist. As a side there was a brioche roll with cheese, Pesto and ham, crispy and fabulous. I bought the food through TooGoodToGo and paid £6 for what would have cost £18. Highly recommended for its service and food. The young man serving behind the counter is so friendly and engaging with his customer. Delightful!
First visit to this cafe. Good Italian food and service but oh dear most of the staff only wearing plastic visors. It will protect their eyes but direct tiny breath particles downward and into the air and quite likely onto customers. The visors look good but they are useless at protecting customers. To reduce the spread of aerosol partials a mask must be worn to absorb the particles and unfortunately plastic does not do this. Can only give one star because of poor hygiene as described.
We happened to find ourselves in need of a late lunch in Teddington and commenced walking south from the top of the High Street. We hadn’t gone far when Girasole appeared. Suffice to say that we were made comfortable by the staff and provided with menus that described all of the dishes that you could hope for in a stylish Italian restaurant. We chose Beef Lasagne and Putanesca as our mains and Salted Caramel cake for after, with great coffee. All food was wonderful!

They may only be allowed to serve takeaway right now, but Girasole is definitely still our first choice on a Saturday morning. The friendliest lady serving, great hot drinks abs my friend is addicted to their croissants as she says they couldn’t be fresher or tastier. They still have some of their signature dishes cooked and packaged up. Also, a selection of high quality coffees and goods. Really recommend this place for anyone out and about needing a pick me up
I visited Girasole today on the second day of the second lockdown. I was impressed with how they have adapted so quickly and efficiently to the new changes whilst still maintaining their trademark Italian style and welcoming atmosphere! The coffee was great and the ‘Puccino’ (a light folded pitta/pizza style sandwich) was delicious.I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a lockdown treat!
I recently tried the Full Italian breakfast at this restaurant in Teddington. Despite the many great cafes in the area, this one stands out as having the best cooked breakfast. The homemade baked beans, Italian sausage, and other items were all delicious. Their coffee was also excellent. I highly recommend this place!
The food is outstanding with freshly cooked meals and a great selection of options. The coffee is really good and the staff are very efficient and friendly and service is prompt. They are also dog friendly as well! :

This charming Italian cafe/restaurant offers incredibly fresh food and fantastic service. I am eager to try their drinks and tapas on a Friday or Saturday, as they are open until 9pm.
Great coffee and brunch! Coffee much better than the local competition, food fresh and flavoursome with great service. 5 stars.
