Briciole is an Italian trattoria, cafe bar and delicatessen at 20 Homer Street in Marylebone. The front of the restaurant has the informal character of a neighbourhood deli, while the dining room and outside tables create a welcoming setting for a relaxed lunch, dinner or glass of wine with small plates.
Meals can begin with Italian cheese, charcuterie and sharing platters, as well as antipasti such as vitello tonnato, aubergine parmigiana and meatballs cooked in pizzaiola sauce. Seasonal vegetables, soups and burrata add lighter choices, allowing a table to combine several flavours before moving on to pasta or a main course.
The pasta selection reflects regional Italian cooking, with dishes that may include bucatini all amatriciana, tagliatelle with wild boar, pumpkin and pancetta gnocchi, filled ravioli and lasagne. Linguine with seafood or fish ragu and rigatoni with artichokes and pecorino bring further variety to the changing menu.
Sea bass, sea bream, ribeye steak, chicken Milanese and slow cooked beef with polenta provide substantial main courses. Traditional desserts, Italian wine and attentive service round out the experience, preserving the easy warmth of a local trattoria while offering enough choice for a leisurely occasion.
