La Fiamma

Came here for lunch with 9 adults and two children. No issues with pre booking and friendly on the phone. When we arrived staff were pleasant and managed to seat us all on the same set of tables with no problems. There was plenty of space for our two prams I also also noticed another family with a pram inside so tops marks for space between tables.
The décor was nice with an amazing french windows which were fully open to provide an amazing vista of bushy park while dining. This view can be seen and appreciated no matter where you sit in the restaurant which is a bonus. Acoustics were also good and could clearly here what the person opposite and beside me were saying. I hate those restaurants which have the type of décor which echo and you cannot even here what the person next to you is saying!
I read on this site that the risotto was lovely here so ordered a chicken and Parma ham one and it did not disappoint. It was a lovely strong taste and ingredients were fresh and hot. Friends had pizzas, calzone and risottos and everyone was complementary of the food, so thumbs up all around.
For dessert I had an esspresso with vanilla ice cream inside. Never seen this before but tasted amazing. Others had cappuccinos which were made to a high standard and came with little amaretto biscuits.
Bill wasn’t too bad at £16/​17 per head with just a main/​drink/​coffee. Overall, I recommend this restaurant for it location and food.

It’s a shame that Café La Fiamma isn’t busier, it deserves to be. This is a charming little Italian restaurant with one of the best views in Hampton Court. It backs onto Bushy Park you see, so while you are eating you can gaze out of the windows (which are practically from ceiling to floor), and watch deer amble past. No wonder people always request the tables at the back. It almost feels like you are sitting in the park.
The menu is very simple. It is unfussy Italian food. Pizza, pasta, and a few meat and fish dishes. I can tell you that it is probably not the best Italian food that you can have, but then this area does not specialise in Italian food, so if you are in the mood for pizza you might as well come here. That is what I usually get when I am here, although they have just added a new dish to the menu which I plan on trying next time I am here– lobster linguini. It is £12.95, which I think is very good value for a dish that has lobster in it.
One of the big problems that this place has is parking. There are virtually no spaces, and it is on a busy road so it is difficult to leave the car anyway. I would suggest parking it over Hampton Court Bridge in Bridge Road, or at Hampton court station. From here it is a 5 minute walk. Nothing too strenous, and if it is too cold you can have an extra glass of wine to warm you up when you get here!
