Bocca di Lupo

"Be very ready to be very happy about jumping straight into this wolf's mouth."

"Chef Jacob Kenedy comes from the noted Moro (British chef, Spanish restaurant, why not?), as does the manager and some of the waitstaff." Full review

""The mouth of the wolf, in the heart of Soho," is how Bocca di Lupo announces itself, and there's a strong whiff of rustic earthiness, of hairy-armpit experimentation about the menu." Full review

"The mood is brisk and chirpy, as befits a restaurant down a scuzzy Soho side street." Full review

"Rustic specialities from all over Italy are served in this lively modern trattoria, where it’s the done thing to share, tapas-style."

"The buzz is as important as the food at Jacob Kenedy and Victor Hugo’s enduringly popular Soho restaurant." Full review

"The place is always packed and the tables jammed too close together, but everyone still comes for the buzz and chef Jacob Kenedy's unusual rustic Italian regional fare." Full review

"For "lively, seasonal cooking" including "superb" homemade pasta, this "reasonably priced" Soho Italian "lives up to the hype"." Full review

"Italian for 'break a leg'; authentic fare gets your bocca watering."

"Deservedly busy from the day it opened, Bacca di Lupo is one of the best things to have arrived in Soho since the espresso bar." Full review
