Our

Demartino is a family-run Italian restaurant offering both classic and contemporary dishes from all regions of Italy. Located in the heart of Fitzrovia for over 30 years, the restaurant is well-known for its relaxed atmosphere, comfortable surroundings, and welcoming staff.

Our story began in 1990, when Mario Inzani opened his sandwich bar, La Perrigina - a small, lively shop that quickly gained a reputation for delivering an authentic taste of Italy.
​In 2001, Julian and Davide joined, bringing new energy and ambition to show that a passionate Italian family could achieve even more. La Perrigina changed its name to Demartino, and our family set out to create a New York-style Italian dining experience in the heart of London.
Despite the name change, our goal has always remained the same: to showcase the true taste of Italian food. Over 30 years later, Demartino is still going strong as London’s neighborhood Italian, serving classic dishes made with only the freshest ingredients.
​
Our menu features a wide selection of fresh fish and meats delivered daily, along with a variety of vegetarian and vegan options, all crafted to perfection by our talented chefs. Demartino is renowned for our authentic pasta dishes, daily specials, and hand-picked range of fine wines, showcasing the best Italy has to offer.
