Finding a venue for your event in London, be it a birthday, family get together or corporate dinner. With so many options, where to start? Well, if you're looking for an all-round crowd pleaser, you can't get better than Bocconi, a traditional, stylish Italian restaurant on West London's Goldhawk Road.
Who doesn't love Italian food, right? So, with a classic Mediterranean- style menu, you can be sure there'll be something all of your guests can enjoy. Start off with a classic Italian aperitivo of Aperol Spritz or Prosecco, followed by plenty of small, sharing plates for the table. The antipasti menu is packed with tasty-sounding offerings, from fried squid and zucchini with sweet chilli sauce, to parma ham with melon and rocket salad. As well as salads packed with combinations like avocado, grilled halloumi and pomegranate, or goats cheese, beetroot, walnut, which are also great for sharing.
When it comes to mains, indulge in a pasta course with dishes like lobster ravioli in bisque sauce or porcini mushrooms and truffle oil risotto. Or, jump straight into mains, with options like chicken saltimbocca with parma ham, asparagus , mash potato and sage, next to sea bass fillet, pork belly or calf's liver. A good host never skips dessert, so be sure to get a load of Italian classics like homemade tiramisu, vanilla panna cotta with berry compote and affogato with scoops of vanilla ice cream, too.
In terms of the space, Bocconi offers a completely private, lower-ground level dining room with a central, wooden table and capacity for 40 people. With rich, green-toned walls, large artworks and spotlight lighting, it's an atmospheric, sophisticated spot for any kind of occasion.
