Situated in the heart of London's Notting Hill area and a stone's throw from Kensington Gardens De Amicis has been serving fine and authentic Italian food using fresh and seasonal ingredients for over 15 years. The friendly service and usually buzzing and bustling atmosphere of the restaurant have made it a popular destination for all types of occasions. On a busy night the open plan kitchen adds a special vibrancy to the restaurant demonstrating the passion and energy the chefs bring to the dishes.

Avocado prawns and parma ham and melon make a great combination to kick-start your meal. A whisked egg and parsley in clear consommé soup later, you can indulge in some pasta by ordering spaghetti Bolognese with meat sauce. If you prefer seafood try pot cooked haddock fillet with bay leaves, garlic, olives, tomatoes and white wine before ending the meal with short-crust pastry filled with crème patisserie and topped with pine nuts.
