Caffe Caldesi
About Caffe Caldesi
The smart-casual, or just plain casual if you prefer, sister of the starchier Caldesi in Marylebone, Caffe Caldesi is a friendly stop at any time of day. The decor is modern Tuscan and the menu a palate-thrilling selection of regional Italian dishes prepared from the freshest ingredients and beautifully complemented by the Italian wines. Try starter of roasted aubergine and onion with buffalo mozzarella and pine nuts, followed by pan-fried monkfish with pureed winter vegetable sauce and broccoli. The terminally lazy or those hard pushed for time will be pleased to know that Caffe Caldesi will also prepare food (in your own dishes if you like) for you to collect and eat at home. As for service, well, the Italian waiters are very nice indeed.
