Giovanni is a modern Italian restaurant at 6 Yeomans Row in Knightsbridge. The dining room serves traditional Italian food in a warm, polished setting, with frequently changing specials built around market fish and seasonal produce alongside a regular menu designed for lunch or an unhurried evening meal.
Antipasti move from homemade bread, olives and soup to burrata with Parma ham and sun dried tomatoes. Cured salmon, peppered beef carpaccio, goat cheese with marinated aubergine, crab salad and pan fried scallops offer contrasting ways to begin, balancing fresh leaves, vegetables, seafood and richer cured flavours.
Fresh fettuccine with seafood and tomato leads the pasta selection, joined by creamy rigatoni with wild mushrooms and pancetta, potato gnocchi with hand cut beef ragù and orecchiette with tomato, rocket and ricotta salata. Squash risotto with hazelnut and Taleggio provides another warming main course with a distinctly Northern Italian character.
Lamb shank, chicken Milanese, sliced beef steak and roast baby chicken sit beside sea bass, lemon sole, tuna and salmon. Tiramisu, panna cotta, chocolate soufflé, fruit and Italian cheese complete the meal, while a wine list selected from regions across Italy gives diners suitable pairings throughout each course.
