Da Corradi is a family run Italian restaurant at 20-22 Shepherd Market in Mayfair. The Corradi family has welcomed diners here since 1978, building the menu around traditional recipes and warm hospitality. Its intimate location in the lanes of Shepherd Market suits a leisurely lunch, dinner with friends or an uncomplicated plate of pasta and a glass of wine.
Starters cover familiar Italian flavours through bruschetta, Caprese salad, minestrone, calamari and prosciutto with melon. Stuffed aubergine, garlic mushrooms and avocado with prawns add further choices before the main course. The pizza selection ranges from Margherita and spicy salami to four cheese, Parma ham with rocket and a vegetable combination of aubergine and peppers.
Pasta remains at the centre of the menu. Spaghetti Bolognese, carbonara, lasagne and arrabbiata sit beside spinach and ricotta tortelloni, crab cappelletti and seafood linguine. Rigatoni with chicken, leeks and cream offers a richer house recipe, while garlic and olive oil spaghetti keeps the cooking simple. Seafood risotto provides a rice based alternative with the same Italian character.
Larger dishes include chicken with lemon, veal saltimbocca, lamb cutlets, steak with peppercorn sauce and prawns cooked with garlic, wine and chilli. Swordfish and salmon broaden the seafood choice. Tiramisu, crème caramel, torta della nonna, cannoli, gelato and affogato give the meal a classic finish, supported by an Italian leaning wine list and after dinner coffee.
