Alpine Restaurant, The Description
The Alpine Restaurant began life way back in 1969 and is a well-known landmark on the Hertfordshire and Greater London boundary. This 19th century Tudor structure still retains its characteristic warmth and the cooking embraces old school Italian with some modern touches.
The regularly changing menu is designed around seasonal produce so you may notice home rolled pheasant ravioli with parsnip mash or pappardelle with a ragoût of lamb and winter vegetables. For the main affair a fileto gioacchino - roast fillet steak topped with foie gras - comes with wild mushrooms, Madeira and black truffle gravy, and spinach and potato rösti. The dessert menu is most than just pannacotta and tiramisu, there's pear millefeuille with almond crème patisserie, amaretto ice cream and hot chocolate sauce.
A crisp Montecristo, Fantinel 2006 complements most dishes while the Planeta Cometa 2006 with its elegant mineral notes and honeyed finish could accompany well-flavoured starters.

Your Reviews of Alpine Restaurant, The
Nicholas (13 October 2009)
We recently went to the Alpine for dinner after having been invited there by friends for a large party. The party had been held in their upstairs private function room and we had been so impressed with the food and ambience that we decided to return of our own accord. We had booked a table for four; my wife and some friends of ours on a midweek evening, as Saturday was full. Needless to say the food and service were both impeccable. The attention to detail for the dishes would put some stared restaurants to shame, and all for a fraction of the cost. We spoke to the head waiter and asked why the restaurant had no awards, his response was simply that the restaurant was mostly busy and that they had been there for forty years and that was an accolade in itself. We will no doubt return. The Alpine has won us over.
