While the restaurant isn’t a newbie on the London food scene, the Mayfair Italian restaurant, beloved by Premier League footballers, has found a new home.
The neighbourhood eatery promises a vibrant yet intimate atmosphere, blending a taste of la Dolce Vita with Little Italy.
Babbo, which means Daddy in Italian, opened earlier this month and has already got great word of mouth.
The new iteration of Babbo is open all day and serves an incredible range of authentic dishes including pastas, pizzas, and breakfasts.
Breakfast menu highlights include crispy Neapolitan sfogiatelle filled with vanilla Chantilly cream, crepes and filled focaccias.
Wallpaper Magazine says: “Lunch and dinner might begin with beef carpaccio with mustard dressing, aged parmesan and rocket ahead of grilled spatchcock baby chicken marinated in spices with charred lemon, with perhaps a pasta course in-between of spaghettoni cooked in fish broth, clams and datterini tomatoes. Who’s your daddy?”
Babbo opened on December 9th and is available to book now. It is located at 29-31 St John's Wood High Street, NW8 7NH.
Nearest Tube Station: St John’s Wood.
