Our Story

Locatelli is more than just an Italian restaurant in London — it’s a place where Italian cooking, hospitality, and culture come together.

Locatelli: A Culinary Journey

Located just moments from Trafalgar Square in the Sainsbury Wing of the National Gallery, we invite you to step off the busy streets and into a warm, relaxed space where food is celebrated and shared. Whether you’re joining us for a quick bite, a long lunch, or an espresso at Bar Giorgio, every detail reflects our passion for good food and Italian traditions.

Handmade ribbon shaped pasta, broad beans, pecorino cheese, rocket with a glass of wine served. White napkin and silver cutlery beside the plate, on a marble table with a white background.

Our menu reflects the best of Italy’s regions, from Lombardy to Sicily. We work closely with trusted suppliers to source seasonal produce, cured meats, cheeses, and olive oils — always focusing on quality and sustainability.

Pasta is handmade daily. Sauces are slow-cooked. And every dish is designed to bring the comforting, familiar feeling of an Italian kitchen to the heart of London.

A Warm Welcome Awaits

Dining at Locatelli is about more than the food. It’s about being part of something — a shared table, a raised glass, a story told across generations. Our team is here to make every visit feel special, whether you’re stopping by after a visit to the National Gallery or making a day of it near Trafalgar Square.

From the food to the wine to the music in the background — everything is designed to make you feel at home.
