Italian
The pasta course at this Clerkenwell Italian draws the room together: cappelletti of salt-baked potato, tortelli of pumpkin with ricotta, all made with the kind of attention that treats fresh pasta as a serious subject. The kitchen runs a "Britalian" line, pairing Italian technique with Orkney scallops and Hebridean lamb. The 1950s art deco interior seats well over a hundred, yet it still reads as a proper grown-up dinner. Holds a Michelin star.
