About

Nestled on London’s buzzing Soho street, Bocca di Lupo is a family‑run trattoria where regional Italian dishes meet fine art and convivial hospitality. Founded in 2008 by chef Jacob Kenedy and business partner Victor Hugo, the restaurant has earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand stamp, a Tatler Best Wine List award and a Time Out “Best London Restaurant” accolade. Its interior is adorned with Haidee Becker’s vibrant canvases, creating a lively, casual atmosphere that invites both locals and visitors to indulge in authentic pasta, fresh seafood and seasonal specials. Bocca di Lupo is celebrated for its generous portions, warm service, and a wine list that reaches up to £300 a glass. Whether you’re enjoying lunch, pre‑theatre bites, or dinner that runs until midnight, the chef’s counter offers an intimate, open‑kitchen experience. The private dining room transforms the space into a private affair for up to 32 seated guests, and the family‑friendly ambience makes it a top choice for couples, food lovers, and those seeking a genuine Italian touch in the heart of London.
