Zafferano

Zafferano Restaurant

Like the unique spice from which it is named, the gourmet experience that Zafferano offers to the guests is based on quality and taste.

The plates are treated with extreme detail, served in an intimate and refined setting, and the service is up to the taste of the dishes.

The wine list is extensive, mostly Italian with a short selection of prestigious French bottles and a few labels from elsewhere in the world.

For example there was Sant Michel Appiano Montiggl Riesling 2014 at £42 for a bottle that you can find in the high street for £17, Barida Alta Bianco 2013 at £76 compared to its retail price of £27, and the excellent Jermann Vintage Tunina 2014 at £125 for a wine that will set you back around £40 in a shop.

Miniature ravioli with sage was excellent, the pasta made from scratch in the kitchen and having lovely texture (15/20).

I ate mine more carefully and survived, the texture of the pasta again good.

If you went for dinner and shared a decent bottle of wine then a more realistic all in cost for three courses and coffee would be £90 or more.

Review analysis
food  

The dining room, with its bare brick walls, rustic stone flooring and striped banquettes, is a relaxing place and the scent of fresh flowers lifts the spirits.

Our meal started well with home-made foccacia, salami and parmesan served on a wooden block, followed by a creamy burrata with fresh artichokes and piennolo tomatoes.

But the kitchen blew it with a dish of spaghetti and cured pork cheek, so swamped by tomato sauce that it would not look out of place in a school canteen.

It was left to a fleshy Cornish cod acqua-pazza (poached in a light broth) served with peas and carrots to save the day.

However, based on our recent visits, Zafferano has some way to go to rediscover its glory days.
