Price: Moderate
• Indian • Raynes Park
Booked 1 time today
Sai serves authentic Punjabi cuisine with tandoor cooking a speciality. The spice range is broad, from minimal to high levels and vegetables forming the backbone of the menu. Wheat is the staple food of Punjabis; however, they do enjoy eating rice at festivals and other special occasions. When it comes to food, each region within Punjab has an entirely different preference, for example, people in Amritsar are particularly fond of stuffed parathas and milk products. The philosophy of life for many Punjabis is to eat, drink and make merry. They are lively people who are extremely fond of eating good food. In the preparation of Punjabi food, onion, ginger and garlic are used extensively to enhance the taste of the food.**NEW***SUNDAY BRUNCH 11am to 3pm, try Indian street food from different part of India with unlimited KADAK CHAI.****LUNCH****Now open for lunch Tuesday-Saturday 12-3pm.

    Very busy — a great sign — difficulty being seated despite having a reservation. We were handed a glass of Prosecco whilst waiting without saying anything. Thank you! Slightly cramped table by the wall. The fresh tomatoes on the bruschetta were divine, but in my opinion, extra garlic would’ve helped. Spaghetti dishes (carbonara in my case) were delicious. Marinara on the side was nice too; only room for an affogato.

    Celebrated a birthday and had a lovely time. Delicious margaritas with many options of flavours. Super service - prompt to recommend, place orders, help with anything. Sharing options were good, quite filling. Nachos were not great but the rest was!

    I finally had the chance to dine at Bocconcino, a place that has been on my must visit list for quite some time. After hearing countless glowing recommendations from friends and family, my expectations were naturally high but I’m happy to say that the experience not only met but truly exceeded them. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere set the tone for a memorable evening. The interior struck the perfect balance between cozy and upscale, with warm lighting and thoughtful decor that immediately made me feel welcome. The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely seemed to care about ensuring we had a great experience. Every question we had about the dishes was met with helpful and enthusiastic answers. Now, the food absolutely outstanding. Every dish we tried was crafted with care and attention to detail. The flavors were vibrant and well balanced, and the presentation was beautiful without feeling overly fussy. You can tell that fresh, high quality ingredients are a priority here. The highlight for me was the short rib served on truffle mush potatoes, which was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. To top it off, the dessert was equally impressive a sweet note that ended the meal on a high. I also appreciated the thoughtful wine selection, which complemented the dishes beautifully. Overall, I can see why this restaurant has come so highly recommended. It’s rare to find a place that delivers so consistently on all fronts, ambiance, service, and exceptional food. I’m already looking forward to my next visit and will definitely continue recommending it to others.
