Enoteca

Inspired by a charming little restaurant that Enoteca’s owners visited in Italy, where the menu was simple, the decor unpretentious and great food and wine was shared around the table among family and friends. Aiming to bring a piece of this Italian charm to Southampton, Enoteca serves up sharing plates and charcuterie boards as well as a handpicked list of Italian wines. You’ll find it located on Bedford Place right in the city centre – book a table now for an authentic Italian experience.

Southampton may have no shortage of great Italian restaurants, but Enoteca is a name that certainly stands out among the rest. Instead of the usual pizza and pasta offerings, Enoteca specialise in small sharing plates and boards, making it the perfect place for a communal dining experience with family or friends. Tuck into a platter of Italian cheeses and cured meats, or share some small tapas-style dishes like the polpettine (juicy Italian meatballs in your choice of classic or spicy sauce), prosciutto wrapped prawns, aubergine and parmesan rolls and griddled lamb cutlets.

Be sure to leave room for dessert though, because you won’t want to miss out on Enoteca’s homemade tiramisu. Whether it’s for a romantic date or a family meal, Enoteca’s charming atmosphere and low-key vibe make it the perfect choice, attracting lovers of Italian cuisine from all over the city to its location on Bedford Place in the city centre. To guarantee a table at this Southampton favourite, making a reservation in advance is strongly recommended.
