Roifield MyVillage said on 16th November ... "Village life urban style is alive in this corner of W14. Richmond Road’s parade of establishments survives off the back of the ever growing legion of home workers and the odd Shepherds building resident that wants to avoid the bustle of The Green and the predictability of Shepherds Bar.

Wandering down Richmond way I was pleasantly surprised to find the restaurant open for chow at 3.15pm. On entering the checked tabled cloths jostle with small tables, its all a bit nip and tuck for space.

We were seated and served by the chef, his whites a testament to his toil in the kitchen that day. Expect service that is prompt and straight forward at mid afternoon sittings as you are probably going to be dinning solo as we were.

Anyway the menu is classic Italian, with a noticeable lack of Pizzas. My lasagne tasted as if it had flown straight in from Livorno that lunch time, however my dinning companion’s soup of the day had all the charm of a tube ride from the Campbell’s soup factory.

Armando’s sits next to the now vacated Chez Moi, its enduring success is probably down to the fact the restaurant feels and is home spun, there are little and no airs and graces here.

Our meal and two drinks came to a very economic £13. Fine dinning its not, charming dinning it is."
