Sanremo The Italian Restaurant
The food
The kitchen is led by head chef Gianluca Augello and works from classic Italian and Mediterranean dishes with a few creative twists. Expect handmade pastas, rustic pizzas and dishes from the wood-fired oven, with fish and seafood given a good share of the menu. Oysters are sold by the piece, so you can start with a couple at the bar before moving on to mains. Vegetarian dishes are marked, and gluten-free and vegan options are offered.
The setting
The restaurant sits in the old NatWest building on the High Street, right in the middle of the city's sightseeing core. The dress code is smart casual and the tone is relaxed but polished, which makes it a good choice for an evening meal after a day around the Abbey and the Roman Baths. Larger groups can book the Ariston Room, a private space for up to 60 guests.
When to go
Its central position makes it handy for lunch between sights or dinner before the theatre. Booking is sensible at weekends. There is no dedicated car park, so if you are driving, use one of the city's car parks or park and ride and walk in.
