After 10 years, this low-key pioneer of the Peckham gastro scene “continues to serve excellent, good-value food” from a curt but interesting Italian menu with two or three options for each course; fans say consistency is high and that you are “never disappointed”. It takes its name from 19th-century cookery writer Pellegrino Artusi.

As it celebrates its tenth anniversary, this small Peckham Italian – named after Pellegrino Artusi, author of nineteenth-century classic ‘La Scienza in Cucina’ – is “still a destination” for its dedicated southeast London fans.

This tiny, hip Peckham local “delivers great food” from a short but impeccably prepared Italian menu. They look after their neighbourhood clientele well, with “home delivery kits a lifesaver during lockdown”. The name checks Pellegrino Artusi, 19th-century don of Italian cuisine.

This “tiny and impeccable” Italian in Peckham “punches well above its weight”, thanks to a team who “really put the effort in”. Star billing goes to the “fresh pasta to die for”, but there’s “flavour in every dish”, and locals count themselves “so lucky to have it”. Named after the 19th-century doyen of Italian cuisine, Pellegrino Artusi, it’s also something of a “hipster heaven – check out the beard count!”.

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).
