Busy Italian restaurant just a few steps away from Westminster Bridge and the lastminute.com London Eye.
The food on offer is responsibly sourced and reasonably priced for its central London location. The Italian menu is classically focused - think Pollo Milanese, Linguine di Mare and Paccheri with Tuscan sausage. There's also a choice of stone-baked pizzas, and many of the dishes on the menu can be prepared as gluten-free.
In the mornings, the caffé bar opens from 8.30am and serves up a great range of freshly baked pastries, artisanal coffee and a choice of focaccia sandwiches right through the day.
On sunny afternoons the terrace that opens onto the pedestrianised Forum Magnum Square is a great spot to sit and linger with an Aperol Spritz. Newbies take note: the place gets busy on weekends, so book ahead!
