Our Story

A genuine taste of Italian cuisine in central London.

Established in 2010, Sartori has quickly created an enviable reputation for delivering quality authentic Southern Italian food in the heart of London. Many Italians living in London visit Sartori for a genuine taste of Italy – what better accolade can we have than this!

The star of the show has to be the Sartori pizza — arguably the best in London. Every pizza is lovingly and expertly made by pizza chefs from Napoli: the dough is made from flour imported from Italy and aged in the restaurant for an authentic taste and lightness, then baked in an Italian wood-fired oven to the perfect crispness.

We sit ten metres from Leicester Square Underground station, between two of London's busiest corners — booking ahead is always the safer bet.
