The first Café Rialto opened in 2001 at South Street, Dorking and very soon became popular for its food, drinks and service; it has subsequently opened in Fulham and Battersea. The venue offers freshly prepared dishes using seasonal produce in a chic and delightful setting.

Mushrooms in breadcrumbs filled with garlic and butter, calamari fritti with lemon and tartar sauce, spaghetti alle vongole - with fresh clams, white wine, tomato and garlic sauce, ravioli ai funghi are some of the prized offerings here. If you are a pancake lover then you would not want to miss crespoline fiorentina - rolled pancake with ricotta cheese and spinach with cream and tomato sauce. Rice lovers, too, are in for a treat with dishes such as rice with mushrooms, courgette, spinach, peas, asparagus, and green peppers in cream, garlic and thyme mush, and risotto ai funghi featuring on the menu.

The carefully chosen wine list offers Italian wines, beers and classics.
