Incredible place, so so rare to find a place this authentic and amazing. The fondue is exceptional and Lucas is the longest standing owner on the street, operating here for over 17 years. Lucas is an Italian with French grandfather so he knows his stuff about good food. On top of that he’s a jiujitsu and a magician who treat you to magic tricks during the meal Come here if you want an unforgettable evening

What an awesome little find this place is! Being a huge fan of Savoyard fayre, I was eager to find out if this quirky little place could match what I'm used to in The Alps, and it certainly didn't disappoint! The food and atmosphere are great, with regular music and comedy nights, and Luca is the perfect host. He's passionate about what he does and loves to chat and entertain the guests. I ate there a couple of weeks ago and I'm heading back this week with some friends for another helping.

I hired Bistro Walluc for a private party and the feedback has been outstanding. Luca was brilliant to work with, incredibly responsive and open to all my requests, even with last minute changes. He went out of his way to ensure everyone had a night to remember. He brought in brilliant entertainment, music and comedy. The food was delicious and both he and his staff were friendly and helpful all night. Cannot recommended this local gem enough.

Wow! Came here for our valentines meal last night and it was everything we could have wished for and more! Wasn't really sure what to expect but had heard good things. Booked two weeks in advance ( you have to send the host Luca £10 on Paypal to secure your table). Arrive and ordered the bottle of red - only 'red or white' available on the menu. We loved this lack of choice - felt very authentic, been to many small Parisian cafes and this is often how it is. The wine was perfect. Italian and very light which complemented the cheese very well. You are then immersed in 'Bistro Walluc's' cosy, authentic, quirky vibe. With bowler hats on the wall and red drapes we certainly felt intimate and relaxed! The act 'SVRPoole' were performing on our night and they were OUT OF THIS WORLD. Simona has the voice of an angel and really made our evening. We finished with an amaretto shot and some close up magic from Luca which blew our mind. If you're looking for the perfect unique date idea this is the place to be! So personal, so gorgeous, so yummy. Will be returning as soon as we can!

Really a unique and fantastic experience had at the Bistrot. The food was delicious, very cheese and tasty. The service was very polite and on time. And the same evening I went with my friends, was a very entertaining, and they had live music and stand comedy. I really recommend going here, is really a special experience that's very uncommon to find here in London.

What to say, I came from a very small village in Italy and the Bistrot reminds me home. I even been lucky cause I’ve had the chance to play there 3/4 times during the delicious dinners that they made, I had food in there too and being Italian I can tell you when food is good and when is not. That’s Italian style, as if we were in Italy. And then don’t forget that it is a bistrot, so if you want 5stars restaurant food this is not the place for you. Same for the wine, I had 2 bottles last time I’ve been there and it was delicious. So thumb up for that! Then, unfortunately I have to keep myself safe from bad reviews, cause last time I’ve played in there it was quite busy, and there was this unsatisfied customer that first wanted to bring her own wine from home and expecting to do not pay for it, and then was making complaints for everything. I was checking her google profile and she thinks she is a food blogger, but she’s got 4 reviews and 0-ZERO FOLLOWERS, so that makes me understand how much professional she is, thinking to be an expert but maybe she just found out how London works. I’m sorry for her, cause she puts all of this bad mood everywhere she goes, definitely not the best company to hang out with. If pop/songwriting is not your musical genre I’m sorry but you should go to a disco club to have fun, or if you know how to do better than me please feel free to come on the stage and play your way. I’m not Freddie Mercury and I know, you shouldn’t come and say that to me, but you were the only one unsatisfied about my music so I’m sorry for you but next time go somewhere else where musicians uses laptops and no one is playing live. Again, I’m sorry for her and for her bad music culture. That said, I wish you could go at the Bistrot and enjoy the food they made and the music and the shows they hosts, you’ll not regret!
