Harden's survey result
Summary
This “cute little restaurant” near Brockwell Park in Brixton “really ticks all the boxes”, with a “short selection of interesting Italian food” inspired by Tuscany’s Maremma marshes – “you wouldn’t expect an establishment of this quality to be hidden away here”. Marks for food slipped a notch this year, although it’s still “exciting and seasonal” at its best.
Summary
This “brilliant local in Brixton” scores well for its “delicious, light food”, taking inspiration from the Maremma, a region of coastal marshes in the south of Tuscany. “A lovely candlelit ambience” makes it “perfect for a fun date night”.
Summary
“Incredibly good, inventive food” – “delightfully light, with loads of flavour” – has put this Brixton two-year-old on the map with its focus on the cuisine and wine of the Tuscany marshland it’s named after. It’s a “lovely local”, run by “friendly and knowledgeable people”, and the unusual wine list includes some “good choices at a reasonable price”.
Summary
Brixton locals Alice Staple and Dickie Bielenberg have teamed up with ex-Bruno Loubet chef Dominique Goltinger to create this little Italian haven. It opened in early summer 2019, too late for survey feedback, but early reviews are very upbeat about its honest Tuscan cuisine.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
