Giorgio at Leadenhall
London
Giorgio's Italian is a bright and attractive Italian eatery that is located on Leadenhall Market in the very heart of the City of London, just off Lime Street Passage. The gorgeous little establishment is open every weekday from 11.30am to 3pm for brunch and lunch, then again at 6pm until 9pm for dinner, proving a big hit with the masses of nearby city workers who seek a fresh and rapid lunch, an ideal venue for lengthier business lunches and a convenient spot for a delicious after work meal with colleagues or friends.
Discreet and intimate, the Giorgio's is tucked away under Leadenhall Market in a series of traditional alcoves. Such a setting is offset by the bright interiors that are comprised of contemporary decorative flourishes and well-spaced tables, allowing for intimate and romantic evenings to be had. The staff is also wonderfully professional and friendly to all, delivering high quality service with a smile, and a fabulous knowledge of the food menu and, more importantly, the exceptional wine menu.
The cuisine at the Leadenhall Italian Restaurant is a deft and delightful blend of modern and authentically traditional Italian cooking, with only the freshest and finest ingredients used. All manner of classics are available, including every pizza and pasta dish imaginable, while there are also a number of specials that are worthy of note, including the fantastic spaghetti lobster, the spinach and ricotta pasta, the grilled aubergine and the sumptuous calzone (folded) pizzas. For wines, the menu has a number of impressive Italian numbers, with the 2004 Zenato Valipocella Superior coming highly recommended.
