"Restaurants Italian Hammersmith. Set back from the Thames Path, this Michelin-starred destination is not only a riverside icon but also one of the flag-bearers for provenance-led seasonal Italian cooking. Warm, buzzy and über-expensive (in a semi-casual way), it’s dedicated to serving unfussy yet stunning regional food based on top-drawer ingredients – salads, pastas and wood-roasted specialities are the headliners, all backed by fabulously expensive Italian wines."

"For over 30 years, A-listers have flocked to this Thameside location in Hammersmith location for (the late) Rose Gray and Ruth Rogers’ inspired Italian cooking. The daily changing menu and superior sourcing keep the chefs perfectly in line with the seasons, and dishes such as ravioli with buffalo ricotta and garden herbs or oven-roasted turbot keep the customers coming. The interior is modern and minimal with bursts of colour, including a shocking pink wood-fired oven, which forms part of the open kitchen."

"Thames Wharf, Rainville Road, W6 9HA Only the River Café could have a wood-burning oven so white, so virginal, that it looks like a wedding cake. It's somehow fitting for a place whose USP is the very finest Italian produce married with genuine Italian cooking techniques in the kitchen, and a great sense of fun in the restaurant. The wonderful thing about the River Café is that it keeps on doing what it has always done: bringing you the best."

"Restaurants Italian Highbury. Canonbury’s star Italian has made the restaurant biz look like child’s play since day one by combining irresistible food with spot-on service and affordable prices.
