About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Romantic
  • Neighborhood gem
Filled with natural light and slick city types, this first-floor Italian restaurant in Leadenhall Market is a stylish eatery with a vibrant energy and understated décor. The dining room at Osteria del Mercato is bright and airy, and decorated with oak floors, blonde wooden furniture, crisp white linens and an array of colourful china and glassware imported from Italy. Ideal for business meetings, romantic tables for two and intimate dinner parties, the menu at Osteria del Mercato is filled with suitably posh pastas and authentic Italian dishes – we love the swordfish tartare with fennel salad; the tortiglioni pasta with veal ragu; and the spinach and ricotta tortelloni with butter and sage.

    Pretty empty at lunch. Didn't think adding an extra person to a booking should have appeared to be such a problem. Food and service good, but quite expensive for what it is.

    A terrific, authentic Italian eatery in the iconic Leadenhall market. Suitably hidden away, ample tables, excellent fare and subtle but expert service are a delight. We arrived a little early for the lunchtime rush and the dining room did fill up then ebb away but at no point was service or quality compromised.

    Set in vibrant Leadenhall Market, this small restaurant has a great ambience, good food & wine. Staff are friendly and attentive, but not pushy. An excellent evening, will return
