An Italian restaurant, bar and takeaway focused on the food of Rome from Stevie Parle.

The casual all-day restaurant (open seven days a week) is a celebration of the food of Rome, a city Parle (also of Dock Kitchen, Craft London) first visited at the age of 17 (when he was a commis chef at River Café).

Named after one of the seven ancient hills of Rome, as well as the classic Hermann Zapf Italian typeface that has been incorporated into the restaurant’s graphic identity by Here Design, Palatino aims to offer simple, elegant and tasty dishes alongside a 45 bin, all-Italian wine list. 

Its open kitchen is designed around three core elements: a fresh pasta machine; a wood burning grill for an array of meat dishes and a stone oven for fresh pizza bianco and pastries. Dishes (divided into antipasti, primi, secondi and dolci) range from creations based on ancient Roman recipes through to more contemporary offerings. There is also a Presto menu, served daily before 7pm and priced at £15 for two courses or £19 for three.
