Ciao, Bella. Come un raggio di sole hai illuminato la mia vita. Ti adoro Signor Sassi. Translated it means hello beautiful like a ray of light you have brightened my life Signor Sassi. Well perhaps that may sound a little over the top, but Signor Sassi is one of those restaurants that just simply invoke the Italian in you.

With typical Italian aplomb the restaurant is filled with little nooks and crannies that whilst make it a tad on the cramped style, is nevertheless perfect for a romantic assignation. A favourite haunt of the rich and famous as depicted by the numerous photographs on the wall, a little gauche but not insincere. The place is similar to Scalini Resturant.

It has a charming atmosphere. It can be a little noisy due to the snug nature of its seating arrangements, but that really only adds to its character.  The waiters are friendly and are more than willing to engage and enjoy in the fun, or fade away when two lovers are likely to share a strand of pasta, resulting in their sweet caress. Or is that a Disney cartoon?

Don’t come to an Italian restaurant if you don’t like pasta because at Signor Sassi the pasta is a revelation. So good it’s to die for. The wine list however, well let’s just say the food needs to be this good as the wine list is somewhat lacking in what you might expect from such an iconic restaurant.

Signor Sassi is one of those restaurants that if you haven’t been to then where have you been. Just round the corner from Harrods you can’t fail to be entranced by its charms. This really is the iconic Italian restaurant that delivers on just about every level. It’s a must for every gourmand and romantic cavalier alike, Signor Sassi speaks Italian chic and fine food in volumes. A place for amore vietato.

Grazie Mille! x
