Zucca has had some stunning reviews, from Londoners hungry to try the latest in modern Italian cooking. Some people have not been happy with the service in this restaurant but others have judged it the perfect night out. Sometimes you can wait a few weeks to get a booking, as the restaurant had a lot of buzz when it opened and is in the heart of one of London's newest trendy areas, Bermondsey, so is pulling in a very decent trade most evenings. The name means pumpkin in Italian, and the place is appropriately pumpkin accented, in terms of colour, throughout. Many love the fresh cut pasta, seasonal variations, and fish, more up and down reviews for the meat and the size of the portions which some feel are too small. Prices are relatively high, but no higher than the average new Italian restaurant in London.
