The Best Italian Restaurants For Your Next Girls' Dinner
Another Padella rival where it's becoming increasingly difficult to find a table (you have to move fast) is Lina Stores. Luckily, there are branches on Brewer Street, Greek Street, Stable Street, Bloomberg Arcade, Marylebone Lane, Clapham, South Kensington and Shoreditch, so you've got plenty of chances. The pasta is famously delicious, as are the snacks and starters, so if you fancy Italian food but are tired of pizza, this is the place for you.

Padella
Padella, a sleek but casual pasta bar from the duo behind Islington's Trullo is just a stone's throw from Borough Market. Dishes are small enough – and, at around £10-15, cheap enough – to let you to order three between two. Do this. In fact, bring extra friends so you can order a bit of everything. Who cares if you'll likely be sat in a row? Talking is so overrated. There's a changing mix of classics and lesser-spotted varieties such as tagliarini (skinny tagliatelle) or pici cacio, a kind of hand-rolled no-egg noodle from Siena. Padella's version is not just chewy and satisfying (a bit like Japanese udon), but comes smothered in a simple yet moreish sauce of parmesan, butter and cracked black pepper. Order this Trullo fans will be pleased to see the signature eight-hour beef shin ragu (served over pappardelle) here. Time Out tip There are no bookings at Padella, yes, you have to join a queue, but come for an early lunch (11.30am), or early dinner (5pm) when doors open, and you won't have to wait long to get fed.
