Situated in the heart of leafy Richmond, just a stones throw from Kew Gardens, Bacco is one of the most popular Italian restaurants in the area. If you’re craving home-style cooking, you won’t be disappointed here because everything is cooked on site using only the freshest ingredients. Even the pasta is handmade every day by their talented chef. On the menu, you will find tempting authentic dishes like lobster ravioli; grilled swordfish with Sardinian couscous; and pan-fried calves liver with sage, pancetta and saffron potato puree. The dining room itself is an airy modern space with smart wood flooring – perfect for low-key lunches, post-work dinners and Sunday lunch with the family. Bacco’s wine list is also a real treat.
