Bocca di Lupo

Bocca di Lupo restaurant allows you to go on a gastronomic tour of Italy in just a few hours. Located in the heart of vibrant Soho and within close proximity to central theatre-land of Shaftesbury Avenue, the place is favored by celebrities such as Sir Ian McKellen, Josh Hartnett, James McAvoy, Ralph Fiennes and Miranda Richardso. No wonder, because the place has a very cozy and warm atmosphere of an Italian province. Having travelled extensively around the world and researched different regions of Italy and their cuisine, the head chef, Jacob Kenedy, developed a stylish and exquisitely simple concept in food, design and service. He has created a sophisticated yet informal atmosphere of understated elegance. Most of the dishes here are available in both small and large portions. If you appreciate good wine, Bocca di Lupo has a lot to offer. All of the wines are Italian, prime examples of their types, and are all a great value.

We recommend: raw artichokes and courgettes, anchovies & Parmesan or sea bream carpaccio. The pasta is perfectly al dente here. Mixed seafood is also really good. Treat yourself with a tasty traditional gelato or a lighter sorbet, and note that the ricotta here is to die for.

Cuisine: Italian authentic.

Atmosphere: Cozy.

The crowd: London insiders, fashion editors, celebs, stylish Italians, elegant ladies, romantic couples.
