More about Stef's Italian restaurant in London

Named after its friendly owner, Stef's is a family-run Italian eatery in the heart of the London's West End.

First-time diners are welcomed like old friends and the regulars are a friendly mix of young families, local office types and theatre-goers.

The atmosphere is laid-back and unpretentious, allowing the first class food and wine to speak for itself.

The menu is traditional and extensive, full of Italian classics like Gamberoni Diavola and Bistecca di Manzo with a brandy, cream and three peppercorn sauce.

There's a pasta to please everyone and the kids will love the authentic thin-crust pizzas.

Situated just off Oxford Street, Stef's is the perfect place to linger over lunch or enjoy dinner before a night out in nearby Soho.
