Restaurant description
A Cena has been serving authentic Italian food on the banks of the River Thames since 2001. Set in a warm, friendly, elegant and relaxed atmosphere, the menu changes regularly to adapt to the seasons and ensure only the freshest ingredients go into the dishes.
Begin with the likes of smoky aubergine and potato croquettes with Parmesan and aioli, fried tiger prawns and chili mayonnaise, or one of many tempting fish, meat and vegetable antipasti. Sample main dishes on the A Cena menu include grilled Scottish ribeye steak with rocket, lemon and patatine fritte, or pan-fried marinated hake fillet with capers, white wine, butter, lemon and green beans.
The dessert menu at A Cena restaurant features Florentine donuts with strawberry sauce, salted caramel ripple ice cream, and hazelnut praline with chocolate ice cream. The wine list offers a lengthy selection of Italian bottles, whilst the cocktail menu is equally expansive, and includes the signature A Cena cocktail: vodka, triple sec, orange juice, cranberry juice and fresh lime.
Next to Richmond Bridge, A Cena Richmond is a 10-minute walk from St Margarets Train Station.

We love this place. We were slightly concerned to see that there had been a change in chef, following not long after the change in ownership. But we needn't have been. The service was fine - both ladies wore masks, which I'm not sure was strictly necessary, but aside from that it was no different from old times. And the menu was little changed. Most importantly, the food was terrific. A lovely evening.
