Review of Alto By San Carlo - London Menu
Address: Selfridges, The Rooftop, 400 Oxford St, London W1A 1AB, United Kingdom
Nestled atop the iconic Selfridges on Oxford Street, Alto by San Carlo is an Italian dining gem that offers not only sweeping views of London but also a meticulously crafted menu that captures the essence of Italian luxury. The Alto By San Carlo - London Menu stands out as a celebration of bold regional flavors, fresh ingredients, and authentic culinary techniques.
The menu is a masterclass in Italian sophistication, from the perfectly thin and crispy Pizza Tartufo e Funghi, topped with black truffle and wild mushrooms, to the creamy Risotto ai Frutti di Mare loaded with fresh prawns, mussels, and calamari. The pasta selection is especially notable-Tagliolini al Limone is light and citrusy, balancing richness with freshness, while Ravioli al Tartufo delivers indulgence in every bite.
Seafood lovers will appreciate the Branzino alla Griglia-a whole grilled seabass served with a zesty herb dressing. Meat dishes like Filetto di Manzo (a tender beef fillet with Barolo sauce) reveal the kitchen's commitment to quality and technique.
Beyond the food, the setting is undeniably stylish, with lush Mediterranean decor, lemon trees, and an ambiance that transports you straight to the Amalfi Coast. The service is attentive yet unintrusive, enhancing the upscale dining experience.
While prices are on the higher end, the portion sizes, flavor authenticity, and presentation justify the value, especially for special occasions or indulgent afternoons in the heart of London.
In summary, the Alto By San Carlo - London Menu is a refined culinary journey through Italy, served in one of London’s most exclusive rooftop settings. It’s a must-visit for those seeking elevated Italian dining with panoramic views.
