Most Italian chains claim to take their food seriously and provide an authentic dining experience, but Made in Italy group takes in a bit further and is rigorously nostalgic about the Italian way of life. With a sprinkling of restaurants across London, each taking on a unique personality, but what unites them is a pizzametro or a metre long pizza that brings several heads together, characterising conviviality.

So head straight to Upper Street where the calm and rustic setting at Regina Margherita draws in diners seeking a home away from home experience. Amongst first courses rigatoni mama mia with homemade meatballs, aubergines, cherry tomato and parmesan and paccheri with button mushrooms, Italian sausage, pecorino cheese and truffle oil stand out impressively, but people come to this place, expressly to indulge in their pizza metre topped with a range of condiments that include mozzarella, capers, sun-dried tomatoes, Parma ham, anchovies and spicy salami.
