Leonardo Wine Bar

Perched within the leafy fringes of Upper Richmond, Leonardo Wine Bar in East Sheen is the trattoria-style sister restaurant of local’s favourite, Mamma Mia. Offering authentic Italian cuisine in a bistro-style setting, Leonardo Wine Bar features live music on a regular basis as well as a quaint courtyard for al fresco dining.

Homemade pasta recipes and succulent steak dishes lead the Leonardo Wine Bar menu, along with a vast wine list which includes heady Latin bins. Cured meats, spiced salami and pickled vegetables head the starters, whilst a Tuscan straw wine accompanied by a selection of twice-baked biscotti biscuits introduces the desserts.

Lined by rustic flower boxes spilling over with abundant greenery, the Leonardo Wine bar and restaurant front is framed by a charming, scalloped awning. A blushing neon light floods the porch, welcoming diners into the informal but lively dining area.

Adjacent to the Thames Bank, Leonardo Wine Bar in London is a 6-minute drive to Kew Gardens and a 5-minute drive to Richmond Park.
