There's more to this Leytonstone Italian than pasta, though the Italian duo behind it do make their own by hand every day. The focus of the menu is Sardinian cuisine, though dishes from the mainland also feature.
Dishes range from melanzane alla parmigiana and burrata with cherry tomatoes and basil to taglioni with pecorino cheese and black pepper, rabbit leg with mashed potato, black olives and capers, and pan-fried sea bream with capers, cherry tomatoes and green beans. Fregola con vongole e gamberetti – Sardinian couscous with clams and prawns – also features.
Desserts include tiramisu, caprese cake, panna cotta and ice cream from La Gelatiera over in Stratford.

A popular little Leyton restaurant serving informal Portuguese food. It's been an east London fixture for nearly a decade now, with the family behind it partial to a warble or two – there's karaoke most Friday nights.
Food remains the focus, though. The majority of the menu is Portuguese, with dishes including calamari, octopus with olive oil and paprika, fried pork fillets in a piri piri sauce and bacalhau - a Portuguese dish of dried salted cod fried and topped with clams and a king prawn in an onion and pepper sauce. Crowd-pleasing Italian pasta dishes also feature.
Keep an eye out for live music nights, as well as sports screenings.
