Osteria Del Mercato

About

Filled with natural light and slick city types, this first-floor Italian restaurant in Leadenhall Market is a stylish eatery with a vibrant energy and understated décor. The dining room at Osteria del Mercato is bright and airy, and decorated with oak floors, blonde wooden furniture, crisp white linens and an array of colourful china and glassware imported from Italy. Ideal for business meetings, romantic tables for two and intimate dinner parties, the menu at Osteria del Mercato is filled with suitably posh pastas and authentic Italian dishes – we love the swordfish tartare with fennel salad; the tortiglioni pasta with veal ragu; and the spinach and ricotta tortelloni with butter and sage.
