Azzurro is an intimate Italian restaurant at 255 Eltham High Street. Its relaxed dining room focuses on familiar Italian cooking and straightforward hospitality, using carefully handled ingredients across antipasti, pasta, pizza, seafood and grilled meat for a comfortable neighbourhood lunch or evening meal.
Antipasti include cured meats with olives and mozzarella, aubergine parmigiana, homemade meatballs in tomato sauce and mushrooms cooked with garlic, herbs and white wine. Mussels, king prawns, calamari, whitebait and grilled sardines give seafood a strong presence from the beginning of the meal.
Pasta and risotto range from lasagne, carbonara and puttanesca to gnocchi with sausage and pancetta, ravioli with porcini, seafood linguine and risotto with mushrooms or shellfish. The pizza selection covers vegetable, cured meat, seafood and cheese combinations alongside folded calzone, allowing groups to mix classic and richer toppings.
Fish and meat dishes are served with potatoes and salad, providing a substantial alternative to pasta and pizza. Main course salads and vegetable sides offer lighter accompaniments, while tiramisu and other Italian desserts continue the traditional theme. Wine, beer and coffee round out the easygoing dining experience.
