About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Created Tom Hill and Clare Lattin of Ducksoup in Soho and Little Duck in Hackney, Emilia is their version of a small Italian Osteria (transported to the Devonshire countryside) serving seasonal, everyday Italian inspired dishes using locally grown ingredients. Tom oversees the menu and together they cook and share a love for Italian food and natural wine. The dining room is hosted by Lucy Mastroddi and Paul Seckler along with Alice Phillips.

    A very special experience. Food was delicious - not cheap but worth it for some really interesting tasty unusual dishes (we did the sharing thing on our waiter’s advice/ worked well). Lovely ambience. Thank you

    This is an excellent rest with a great variety of tasty foods. Small plates so you will need to order a few! Great choice of wine too!
