Unapologetically maximalist Italian-American playground featuring velvet booths, mirrored walls, and a high-energy atmosphere that prioritizes spectacle over culinary subtlety.
Ordering Strategy
Portions are heavy and designed for sharing. Save significant room for the Wedding Cake dessert. Request a table upstairs for the skylight and glamour, or downstairs for a moody, retro-club vibe.
What to order
Tortelloni With Lamb Ragù
Hand-made tortelloni stuffed with a spicy Cornish lamb ragù and served with a rich tomato sauce, Parmigiano Reggiano, and fresh basil.
Lobster Carlotta
The 'headline act' of the main menu, this 1kg deshelled Cornish lobster is served with beurre blanc and crispy potatoes; it can be further elevated with an optional addition of black Venetian caviar.
Carlotta's Wedding Cake
A signature dessert featuring layers of almond génoise and raspberry, topped with vanilla cream and meringue. It is delivered with a 'certain flourish' and is large enough for two to share.
