Review on 2 Amici Italian Restaurant

On the site formerly occupied by Simply Nico, this recent arrival in the Pimlico/Westminster neighbourhood aims to bring good-value Southern Italian food to an increasing vibrant area of the capital. Mario Bakkali and his team are well-known to local diners and are already winning new friends with their blend of genuine hospitality and reliable cooking.

Meals begin with a big choice of antipasti, ranging from deep-fried Taleggio cheese stuffed with porcini mushrooms, baby spinach salad with crispy bacon or swordfish marinated in pink peppercorn and lemon dressing. Linguine with mixed seafood and light tomato sauce is a speciality of the house, while substantial mains might include veal chop with white wine, butter and sage or steamed sea bass with clams and mussels. To conclude there are Italian favourites like zabaglione, tiramisù and pannacotta. The food is supported by a competitively priced wine list.
