L’ulivo has been feeding Londoners with fresh, authentic Italian cooking for over 15 years, dedicating itself to high quality produce and typical generous Italian service. The restaurant operates exactly as you’d expect a genuine Italian restaurant to function - seasonal produce arrives daily and is selected by the team, which then puts together a menu of the best dishes and ingredients for visitors.
If that sounds like something for you, then perhaps you should consider booking L’ulivo for your next private dinner. The restaurant’s passionate service and elegant, rustic interiors make it ideal for all sorts of food-related events, from birthday dinners and corporate entertaining to networking and canape parties. The L’ulivo team is ultra-flexible and can adapt a menu to suit your event.
Inside, this bright, modern space is extremely versatile. Tables can be laid out in a variety of different formats, or the space can be emptied out for standing parties and engagements. On warmer days the front windows can open fully, making the restaurant feel positively Mediterranean, thanks also to the climbing plants that line the walls inside.
L’ulivo offers a three course set menu for larger groups, with dishes at the time of writing including baked goat’s cheese on homemade bread, with honey and pears in the starters, andleek, mushroom and asparagus risotto, and pan-fried duck breast with orange sauce among the mains. For dessert, you can choose between two classics - a panna cotta or a tiramisu. Meanwhile the wine list includes a good selection of typical Italian grape varieties from all over the country, from light, crisp pinot grigio to hefty Barolos and Chiantis. There are also signature cocktails and aperitivi to choose from, so a private dinner at L’ulivo really does tick all the boxes.
