Giuseppe’s Ristorante Italiano is a family run restaurant at 47–49 Borough High Street, close to Borough Market and London Bridge. One of the established Italian dining rooms in the area, it offers a warm and traditional setting for lunch, dinner, celebrations and group meals.
The kitchen draws inspiration from several regions of Italy and makes use of seasonal produce, including ingredients sourced around Borough Market. Antipasti may bring bruschetta, cured meat, cheese, calamari and prawns to the table, providing a varied beginning for a shared meal.
Pasta and risotto range from Bolognese, carbonara and amatriciana to vongole, seafood risotto and filled pasta such as lobster ravioli. Pizza, meat, fish and vegetable dishes extend the selection, allowing diners to choose between familiar comfort food and a fuller sequence of Italian courses.
Tiramisu, cannolo and torta della nonna continue the traditional approach through dessert. Italian wine, beer, coffee and after dinner drinks round out the experience, while the convenient Borough High Street location suits theatre visitors, local workers and travellers arriving through London Bridge.
