Our Story

Delivering exceptional food and ensuring every guest leaves with a smile

From the team behind 40 Dean Street and 64 Old Compton Street, we’ve spent over 15 years serving Soho. Now, we’re switching things up with 27 Old Compton Street - a modern pasta bar for those who want quality food, fast.

Our menu is designed for quick service without sacrificing the care and craft of Italian cooking. Our food is made fresh, served hot, and ready when you are.

Whether it's a quick lunch, a late-night snack, or a catch-up with friends, we’ve got you covered with delicious Italian food - without the wait or the hefty price tag.

Our Community

We are committed to sourcing ingredients from nearby independent Soho businesses. Our bread comes fresh from Camisa, a beloved local bakery renowned for its artisanal creations, which originally opened on Old Compton Street in 1929, while our coffee beans are sourced from the historic Algerian Coffee Stores, a cornerstone of Soho's coffee scene since 1887. As proud members of the Soho Business Alliance we embrace the essence of community, recognising the importance of giving back, supporting causes close to our hearts that enrich the lives of those in our community.
