Sartoria is the only restaurant on Savile Row, the glamorous heart of Mayfair best known for its bespoke tailors and varied history (most notably as the former home of the Royal Geographic Society).

In 2015, the restaurant went though a major refurbishment with acclaimed designer David d’Almada working on the interior and new chef patron Francesco Mazzei, who put together a stunning menu.

At Sartoria, Francesco has developed a menu with dishes from all over Italy, including a number of his southern favourites such as Lasagne pastachina and Lobster tagliolini.

Francesco is famous for promoting Italian produce and his menu is no exception, showcasing some of the very best Italian ingredients – nduja, burrata and Sardinian fregola all feature, alongside an impressive selection of charcuterie.

To complement the food, Sartoria has an excellent wine list with a large number available by the glass.

food   staff  

At this Conran group Italian, the multi-various staff uniforms suggest that it requires a hierarchy of seven grades of operative to bring you lunch.

Unsurprisingly, however, there is no proper rhythm to the performance, and - with the staff's movements apparently choreographed by some unseen Fat Controller - no feeling that anyone visible is really in charge of your table.

Conran design - it has long seemed to us - is essentially a one-trick pony.

Visits to subsequent Conran restaurants have also frequently given us that feeling of déjà-vu all over again.

The wine list, almost all Italian, offers limited choice under £25 a bottle, but that does nothing to dent its popularity with its almost exclusively business clientele.

Italian restaurant Sartoria, owned by restaurant group D&D London, has sat on Mayfair’s suave Savile Row since 1998.

The city Italian became a modern classic, spawned a spin-off in the form of L’anima Café, won numerous awards, and propelled Francesco into the realms of celebrity chef.

While at L’anima Francesco focused on his native southern Italian cooking, the dishes here span the whole of Italy and take in many of the hard and fast classics — lasagne, carbonara and veal Milanese, for example.

As at every Italian restaurant in the country, the most popular pudding order will almost certainly be tiramisu.

Over in the bar, Italian classics cosy up with more creative cocktails and those with origins elsewhere.

Meal for two, including drinks and service: £150 When I last reviewed Francesco Mazzei’s food, I concluded it made sense to sell my house and move into his restaurant L’Anima, because nothing bad could ever happen there.

It was all snowfields of white linen and walls of glass and clean lines, and plates of food that cheerfully pinched one cheek while kissing the other.

Mazzei has entered into a partnership with D&D London – yes, them again – to take over Sartoria, named for its location on Savile Row, where the grand tailors of London operate.

It’s a long, thick slice through the layers, revealing long- roasted pieces of aubergine, soft, crumbly egg yolk and tiny pieces of meatball, punched up with fiery nduja, the chilli-spiced soft salami from Calabria.

For example when I first phoned to book, the Italian chap on the other end of the line insisted he had no tables at all for my chosen day and time.
