Edera is an independent Italian restaurant at 148 Holland Park Avenue. Warm earthy interiors and attentive hospitality give the dining room a rustic, comfortable character that encourages guests to linger. The kitchen blends familiar Italian classics with dishes from chef Roberto’s native Sardinia, creating a menu that feels both accessible and strongly connected to a particular regional tradition.
Pasta plays a central role, from spaghetti coated with the intense savoury flavour of bottarga to homemade malloreddus. These small ridged Sardinian shapes are served with sausage, tomato and pecorino, allowing the sauce to settle into every piece. Seasonal vegetables, seafood and carefully chosen cheeses appear throughout the opening plates and pasta courses, with recipes changing as ingredients become available.
Sea bass baked in a salt crust is one of the restaurant’s signatures, keeping the fish moist and allowing its natural flavour to remain clear. Meat and further seafood dishes extend the selection, while black and white truffles receive dedicated menus when each is in season. The cooking favours confident combinations and good produce rather than unnecessary complexity.
Seadas provide a distinctly Sardinian finish through crisp fritters filled with sweet ricotta and served warm under fragrant honey. Other Italian desserts and coffee offer more familiar ways to complete the meal. The wine list travels across the regions of Italy and gives special attention to Sardinia, with bottles selected to support the seafood, pasta, cheese and richer seasonal dishes.
