About Venue
ARANCINA is an artisanal Italian street food favorite that has been serving thousands of customers every day with its unique fresh “pizza alla pala” (made to a secret recipe) and regional snacks, including its famous deep fried Sicilian arancini - risotto croquettes filled with bolognaise, ham & cheese or ricotta & spinach – since 1996. There are five branches in Rome and three in London.
The Italian born Mortari brothers brought the popular ARANCINA concept from Rome to Notting Hill in 2005 and they operate three hugely popular casual dining pizzerias, one near Portobello Market in W11, the second one in Bayswater W2 and one in the new Boxpark Croydon. Just like the outlets in Rome, the London branches serve fresh street foods, made to the same authentic regional Italian recipes.
Over the last decade, the brothers have built ARANCINA into an iconic west London pizzeria – a must visit for many - with a loyal customer following and strong fan base.
ARANCINA stands for:
• A true-to-Rome EXPERIENCE
• ITALIAN STREET FOOD (including UNIQUE pizza alla pala and arancini)
• AFFORDABLE not overpriced
• AUTHENTIC - Italian ingredients & only QUALITY fresh food
• Served with the WARMTH of southern Italy and a SMILE
Positively reputable, ARANCINA has clear competitive advantages, including the quality and uniqueness of its product offering; the company’s authenticity and heritage; brand recognition that’s been built over nearly two decades; an existing core audience that loves ARANCINA; a real Italian experience that serves quality at affordable prices.

I enjoyed the pizza, it tasted more healthy and less salty than other pizzas I have tried. Plus the tomato sauce used didn’t taste as rich. I purchased 2 slices which costed over £13. The vegetable slice could have been heated for a bit long as it was slightly warm on the inside. Thank you for your warm and welcoming hospitality!

This used to be my favourite pizza in London, but the last few times I have gone I felt that the pizza has been disappointing. The marinara is very bland and no point of getting the ready made slices they are just too stale. The arancini’s are still great. The staff are also very lovely and welcoming, still worth a visit just wished there was more care with the pizza.
