Dez Amore in Chelsea offers a charming and authentic Italian dining experience perfect for both intimate gatherings and lively group celebrations. Designed as a homage to the comforting homes of Italian grandmothers, group dining at Dez Amore comes with traditional Italian flavours and a warm ambience. Whether for a family dinner, a casual get-together, or a significant company social, this unique restaurant in Chelsea is primed to deliver.
Dez Amore evokes the nostalgia and comfort of the family home. Adorned with vintage accessories, framed doilies, embroidery and black and white portraits it’s both familiar and inviting. There are modern updates too, with green tiled tables and a minimalist bar. The open kitchen enhances the convivial atmosphere, while a designated ‘Instagram corner’ allows guests to capture memorable moments.
Founded by best friends and business partners Leonardo Masi and Simone Parentini, Dez Amore began as a food stall chain serving generous pasta and Italian-influenced burgers. Both have made their way onto the Dez Amore Chelsea menu, along with a selection of equally pleasing pizzas. Pasta is handmade fresh each day and always features classic Italian sauces that have been passed from generation to generation. From cacio e pepe to carbonara and bolognese, you’ll also have the option to spruce up your plate with extra mushrooms, chilli flakes, cheese and bacon.
The burger menu represents the fusion of English tradition and Tuscan flavour, with a range of signature burgers including the ‘Tuscan DOC’ which along with a fried egg, bacon, and Pecorino cheese, features Chianti wine caramelised onions. Alternatively, guests can build burgers with various toppings to spice up beef, chicken and veggie patties. In true Tuscan style, group dining at Dez amore can also involve a pizza padellino - a traditional, thin pan-cooked pizza typical of the region.
