A pleasant ambience animated with a positive vibe defines the dining experience at Azzurro, an Italian bar and restaurant in Gun Wharf Quays, next to the Spinnaker Tower. Its seafront location with an outside terrace overlooking the Solent makes it an ideal venue for a leisurely evening meal. It can also host private functions and events.

Served with customary flair, the freshly prepared items on the menu use high quality fresh ingredients. Begin the meal with dishes such as cured ham, salami, melon, baby mozzarella, rocket and olives with ciabatta bread, sliced cured beef and rocket with flaked Parmesan and olive oil or fresh pan fried sardines with black pepper and lemon juice. Proceed with options of prawns and crayfish with garlic, chilli, tomato and cream, braised lamb shank with mashed potato and French beans, sea bass with new potatoes and spring onions or duck breast with mange tout and redcurrant sauce. Finish with traditional tiramisu, chocolate covered profiterole or crepe filled with strawberries and raspberries in whipped cream. A variety of Italian wines offers more comfort.
