Strada - Panton Street

This is Strada's Leicester Square presence. As Londoners would know, Panton Street is just off that tourist and street performers mecca, making a rather convenient spot for lining your stomach before a night on those West End tiles.

Again, if you live in the city, it's highly likely that you've enjoyed pizza and vino with a group of mates at one of the 16 Stradas spread around the capital. But for those who haven't, these reliable, lively restaurants serve a tasty range of fresh Italian dishes, including pizzas cooked in a traditional wood-fired oven and scrummy salads.

This particular Strada occupies two floors, with a bar and restaurant on the ground floor and a spacious restaurant area in the basement.
