Rosmarino Tooting Bec is a small family run Italian restaurant at 23 Trinity Road, moments from Tooting Bec station. The kitchen combines traditional methods with contemporary ideas, making fresh pasta and sourdough pizza on site. Seasonal ingredients guide a menu that is broad enough for a casual dinner, a shared family meal or a more leisurely celebration.
Opening plates include artisanal bread with olive tapenade, Italian cured meats and cheeses, fried Tuscan dough with ham and stracchino, and courgette flowers filled with ricotta and anchovy. Other starters bring roasted Tropea onion with Taleggio, burrata with pea cream, fried egg yolk with Parmesan and pancetta, or prawns served with Sicilian chickpea panelle.
Pasta ranges from cacio e pepe brightened with lemon zest to potato gnocchi with fennel sausage and Taleggio. Seafood casarecce combines mussels, clams, prawns, calamari and langoustine, while pici comes with slow cooked pork ragout. Main courses include lamb fillet, crisp pork belly, sea bream, a substantial seafood stew and miso aubergine with cashews and purple potato chips.
The sourdough pizza list includes combinations with fennel sausage, cured ham, burrata, nduja, smoked scamorza, five cheeses or a full selection of vegan vegetables. Rum baba, Sicilian cannolo, tiramisu, almond biscuits and Italian ice cream provide a traditional finish. A carefully chosen Italian wine list and weekend brunch options complete the restaurant’s modern but recognisably Italian approach.
