Alastair Little

Seasonal and eclectic modern European cooking combined with top-rate service.
Aperitivo Restaurant

There are already a number of fine Italian restaurants in London most notably Assaggi in Chepstow Place. Pietro Fraccari one of the duo behind this award-winning eatery has set out to do something very different at Aperitivo - food of the highest quality, but eaten with the least formality.

Here, you order a number of individual plates to share. A concept that top reviewers have dubbed 'Italian tapas'.

The atmosphere of this airy Beak Street location is equally relaxed, making it perfect for lunch, a mid afternoon snack or dinner. The menu, being far from the usual three-courses fare makes Aperitivo the ideal choice pre-theatre, pre-cinema or pre-pubbing.

The walls are lined with evocative images of 30's 40's and 50's Europe taken by a remarkably gifted amateur photographer, Donato Marcantonio.

Also, for those with a party or privacy in mind there is a function room that can cater for up to 30 people.
