Darling’s is a fresh pasta eatery in East London. Overlooking Olympic Park, the eatery is a hidden gem in Fish Island where the industrial and creative spaces converge. Roman Road, Bow, Hackney Wick and Victoria Park are just a stroll away from your weekly treat of freshly made pasta and wine from independent producers.

Egle Loit, a trained pasta chef, has previously popped up mostly around East and North London, creating a buzz with her pre-restaurant residency at Vestry House Museum in 2023.

Founder of Darling’s cares dearly about the craft that fresh pasta making requires. “One can turn humble ingredients into abundance with skill,” shares the restaurateur.

Darling’s is designed to be an open space to be shared between the guests and the team, therefore there are no barriers between the service area and the dining area. You’ll find yourself connecting by enjoying your meal at the shared table. Those, who like to hide away, can still do it at separate tables.

Pasta Making Class
£ 110,00 per persoon
Vooraf betaald
28 aug 2024 - 1 jan 2025
You’ll learn how to make fresh pasta using just flour and water with exciting sauces at home without needing any specific equipment. More than anything, you’ll spend 3 hours on a relaxed afternoon or evening creating & eating pasta by hand and making some new friends along the way . I have reasons to believe that fresh pasta making could become your new favourite form of self-care. It’s just so meditative. The pasta you have made, will be served as a dinner with a couple of different sauces ( vegan/vegetarian options available) at a set table. This will be so wholesome! We will also be tasting through some fantastic wines from all over Italy with with our wine expert on hand to guide us throughout.

Had high hopes but somewhat disappointed - the place itself is beautifully considered and intimate (but note that lots of the seating is at communal style table or on stools). One starter was great (albeit a ball of burrata), the other two were good enough but nothing special. £5 portion of focaccia was very small. In fact - all portions were far too small for the prices. And sadly, our two pastas were both considerably over salted. The leek and sausage ragu had minuscule amounts of sausage and no leek - making it essentially a small bowl of buttery cheesy pasta - which is disappointing for £18. We were given a free tiramisu to make up for it which we of course really appreciated, but found this to be lacking in coffee and alcohol flavours and too heavy on the mascarpone. Our total bill came to over £100 which included a tiny plate of focaccia, three starters, two small bowls of pasta, a beer and a small glass of wine.

My friend and I came here on the back of some great recommendations from others. We were not disappointed. The food, service, ambience were fabulous. I had such a wonderful time and will definitely return.

smallish plates that tasted nice but didn’t wow us paired with slow service. we ordered all our dishes to share and they decided for us which dishes came out and when, which was annoying
Darling's Eatery and StudioGereageerd op 27 november 2024
Thank you for sharing your perspective. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the flavours, though we’re sorry to learn that the overall experience didn’t wow you. Our goal is to curate the dining journey as thoughtfully as possible, carefully considering the sizes of the dishes and the flow of them being sent. That said, we understand that preferences vary, and we’ll reflect on how we can better communicate or adapt this approach to suit our guests’ needs. Being a small restaurant, Friday evenings around 7 and 8 o’clock can indeed be busier and more energetic. If you’re seeking a quieter atmosphere with quicker service, we’d recommend visiting us on a Thursday evening or during the day on Saturday for a more relaxed experience.

Die Vorspeisen waren ganz OK, die Pastagerichte allesamt recht fade und nichts besonderes. Die Auswahl an Hauptgerichten ist extrem klein. Die Pasta war nie im Leben frisch und selbst gemacht. Für eine Eatery mitten im Industrieareal unangemessen teuer.
Darling's Eatery and StudioGereageerd op 27 november 2024
Thank you for your feedback—it’s always valuable to hear our guests’ thoughts. We can confidently assure you that all of our pasta is made fresh, in-house, with the utmost care and attention to quality. Our intentionally short menu reflects our commitment to offering seasonal, sustainable dishes and minimising waste, which we believe is an important part of our philosophy. Regarding pricing, our most expensive dish is currently £18, and we aim to provide excellent value for the quality of ingredients and care in preparation. Of course, we understand that perceptions of value can vary, and we’re grateful for your perspective. Thank you again for visiting us!

What a joke of a restaurant. Pasta were average, still looking for my meat in my ragu pasta. But the worst was the owner. Hospitality wasn’t the right path for her. This place sucks.
Darling's Eatery and StudioGereageerd op 27 november 2024
I’m sorry to hear that you felt this way, especially after our conversation in person. As the owner, I spoke with you directly, and you mentioned enjoying the meal and ambience, even saying you’d recommend us to your friends. You also shared your disappointment about the no-show fee since one of your friends couldn’t make it due to illness. Please know that the charge is not meant to punish our guests, but rather to help us manage the impact of no-shows. We truly wish your friend could have joined and that your experience had been more positive. You mentioned that you’d understand the fee for larger groups, and I explained that it applies regardless of table size, as no-shows affect us equally.

We were very disappointed with the place. The food was not tasty enough, not varied, and did not match the menu published when we booked a place. The focaccia ran out even before we arrived (in an Italian restaurant this is terribly disappointing). The place was completely empty, and we didn't understand how it made sense because when we tried to book a place in advance it was not possible because according to the website the place was completely full.
Darling's Eatery and StudioGereageerd op 27 november 2024
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry your experience didn’t meet expectations. Our menu is dynamic, reflecting seasonal ingredients, and we regret the focaccia ran out. Arriving 30 minutes late, just before the kitchen closed, led our team to assume you weren’t coming, which is not typical. We recommend letting us know of delays, as we hold tables for 15 minutes. As a pasta-focused spot, we aim for variety—vegetarian, meat, pescatarian options, plus red and white sauces, egg and non-egg pasta. Cancellations or no-shows can make evenings quieter, though earlier bookings are livelier. We hope you’ll give us another chance!
