About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Hot spot
  • Lively
Locals in London’s Farringdon are spoilt for choice when it comes to first class restaurants, but few are as popular as Santore restaurant in Exmouth Market. This comfortably rustic Italian restaurant with its dark wood furniture and cosy banquette seating, is packed with hungry City slickers at lunchtimes. After work, Santore attracts a laid-back foodie crowd. Authentic touches like tiled floors and wooden shelves with bottles of Italian olive oils and wines will make you feel like you’re really in Italy. On the menu you’ll find hearty Italian fare like veal Milanese, deep-fried calamari and a range of tasty pasta dishes. If it’s proper pizza you’re craving, then you’re in luck, because Santore’s wood-fired oven churns out some of the best pizza anywhere, including the pizza al metro sold by the metre, or delicious rotolo rustico, a rolled pizza filled with mozzarella, ricotta, smoked cheese and sautéed aubergines.

    Santore provides a rare ray of sunshine in this drab summer. The service is always impeccable; friendly, cheeky and with great humour. The pizzas are some of the best that we have tasted. There is something wonderfully theatrical when the metre length pizza arrives (there should be a fanfare!). I had the special Spaghetti with succulent and tasty muscles and voluptuous prawns. Very delicious and washed down with a perky rose. Great atmosphere even for a Monday night. Will be sure to visit again soon.

    The plus side is that the have tables outside which we enjoyed... The food was bland and poorly cooked. Clearly the kitchen forgot to add any seasoning.

    Santore in Exmouth Market serves authentic Italian food served by friendly and efficient Italian waiters. We all ordered their excellent piza followed by good home made puddings. The wine list is short but provides a good range at acceptable prices. The ambience is always lively and friendly

    We booked Santore looking for a pizza n central london. The menu has a few spelling mistake which means it's not written by an italian, not a good sign, yet the pizzas are quite good, if anything lacking in salt in the dough and just a little bland. Prices are on the steep side but this is Clerkenwell. We shared one dessert which was good. Service is friendly and fast and the manager welcoming and professional.

    Lunch / pre-theatre set menu is great value and with a variety of dishes to choose from! Highly recommended before going to a show at Sadler's!

    We go here regularly as locals, on this occasion we went with a few friends. Fabulous pizza, the dough makes a lovely thin crust and there are a great selection of toppings. You can get it by the metre, from a quarter meter so it is perfect for sharing. A good wine list and friendly but always professional service makes this a really good night out. Grazie to the team!

    We had a very good meal at Santore. The staff were very friendly and the restaurant had a bustling welcoming atmosphere. For a mid-week meal after work it was very good. The house white wine was also very tasty and didn't taste too cheap or vinegary as house wines sometimes do. Would recommend and go again.
