Palatino operated in Clerkenwell between 2017 and 2020 offering simple, elegant Italian food with a focus on the cooking of Rome.
Dishes are divided into antipasti, primi, secondi and dolci, but Palatino is just as great a spot for a four course Italian feast as it is for a quick, simple plate of pasta and glass of delicious wine.
The food at Palatino encompasses Rome’s diverse cultural & culinary history, with dishes such as Fried sage & honey vinegar; Chicken, pancetta & pistachio meatballs with polenta (a nod to the city’s centuries-old Jewish community) and Gnocchi alla Romana sitting alongside the likes of Onglet steak with salsa rossa piccante and a take on a classic Chocolate tartuffi, a kind of chocolate ice cream bomb with whipped cream and sour cherries.
Pasta lovers are in for a particular treat. Freshly made on-site and offered all-day, house favourites include dishes such as Bombolotti ragu ‘Marcella’; Tonnarelli cacio e pepe and Rigatoni with tomatoes & Pajata.
The 45 bin, all-Italian wine list embraces discovery with every single wine by the glass. It is divided into Classico, Unico and Speziale offering some rare vintages often bought at auction, or very small production bins, and sold at a fixed mark-up that represents incredible value for money.
Palatino also houses a dedicated bar and banked seating area; during the day this space serves pizza bianca, sandwiches, salads, soups and excellent Craft London coffee.
