Review analysis

Lucio, a new venture from the former manager of San Lorenzo, is sandwiched between Carluccio's Caffé and Carpaccio, so if you want to be served a cappuccino by a man called Carlo to go with your Cornetto, then this particular corner of London is the place for you.

Unfortunately, not being particularly passionate about Italian food, I'm not sure I can quite see the point of Lucio.

Apparently, Mara Berni, the old mother hen of San Lorenzo, is furious with Lucio for flying the coop, and, judging from our fellow diners, she's right to be annoyed.

The corner of my turkey escalope had become all hard and translucent, like a piece of refrigerated ham that's been poking out of its packet for too long, and my wife's courgette flowers contained more oil than Lucio uses to grease up to a table of plasticsurgery monsters.

The saving grace of Lucio is the décor - chosen by the owner's wife, apparently - which is straightforward and unpretentious.
