Il Gattopardo

Il Gattopardo is a classic Italian restaurant in Mayfair, offering an alternative to the neighbourhood's formal tasting menus with a sociable, sharing-driven format. The kitchen focuses on time-honoured preparations and quality ingredients, with signature dishes like veal Milanese, prawn carpaccio, and tiramisu. The space is divided into a formal main dining room, a light-filled terrace, and a crudo bar, each suited to different occasions from business lunches to relaxed weekend lunches and daily cocktail hours. It's a place for the table, not the chef's narrative, with a warm, golden atmosphere of glossy wood and Italian marble.
