Restaurant description
An established Italian restaurant in Belgravia, Enoteca Turi gives a food and wine experience focused on the Italian regional heritage. There are stunning wine bottle displays indoors, and a bijou al fresco area for summertime dining.
Changing with the seasons, the Enoteca Turi menu offers authentic dishes from the many regions of Italy, inspired by tradition, with a modern touch. Sourcing fine ingredients from artisan producers is the key, with the focus firmly on seasonality and freshness. Wholesome antipasti and homemade pasta may include fava bean puree with roasted vegetables or orecchiette with cime di rape.
Wine plays a large part in the overall experience (Enoteca loosely translated means “wine place”). The 450+ award-winning all-Italian list is designed to offer the different wine styles that Italy produces at each price level. Fine wines bought on release are aged in the temperature-controlled wine cellar, and put on the list when they reach their perfect drinking window.
The private dining room located in the downstairs wine cellar is an intimate space seating up to 28 on one table. An independent London Italian restaurant established since 1990, Enoteca Turi is 5 minutes walk from Sloane Square Tube Station.

I took my grandson for his 23rd birthday along with his girlfriend. Both profess an interest in food but do not have the opportunity or budget to eat out regularly. So my first tribute is to the staff for their welcome and attentiveness. Enoteca Turi has slightly more style than substance. You know you are entering a 'classy joint' as soon as you see the smart, understated, charcoal grey exterior and greenery in planters screening two outdoor tables. Enoteca Turi is entirely at home among its neighbours - predominantly topflight antique dealers, art galleries and design shops. David Linley has the corner shop across the road. Judging by the prices on the menu, it's the neighbours’ clientele Enoteca Turi are hoping to feed. The meal was expensive, particularly as I chose to go with glasses of the recommended wine pairings rather than a one-bottle-to- accompany-all.The restaurant is renowned for its cellar so the chance to sample, between us, glasses of four different wines was also costly but worth it. Wines apart, it was all of undeniably high quality if uninspired. I expected more flavour from the slow cooked shin of veal and its bed of saffron and bone marrow risotto. But that was preceded by a perfectly good spaghetti con vongole. Grandson's rack of lamb was succulent and perfectly cooked. At £34.50 a head, it needed to be. Perhaps here you should choose your wines and then decide what to eat with them. If you treat Enoteca Turi as a good local Italian in a pricey part of town, rather than burden it with the expectations of a gourmet experience, the smiles on leaving will be even wider. Whether that justifies a bill of £377 for three is another matter.
