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.

Probably one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. What is a quaint little shop with upstairs seating overlooking the street in Notting Hill

What a gem!!! Best pizza, lovely service and affordable... Sitting area upstairs is cosy. Super place, would recommend..

I’d often walked past Arancina on my nights out but never stopped in until this evening, and what a pleasant surprise it was! The pizzas are freshly made (though not in the Napoli style), leaving you feeling light and satisfied rather than heavy. As the only non Italian among a crowd of Italian customers, it filled me with confidence in its authenticity. The flavours transported me back to the quality pizzas I’ve enjoyed during my travels across Italy. Highly recommend for anyone craving a true taste of Italy in London!

It was good. Well made pizza. Not exciting but not disappointing either. Good selection. Premade, they put it in the oven after you order. Nice size portion, like 2 slices worth.
