I love Pellicanino Restaurant! Best Italian food in London...
Just off Chelsea Green, this is a charming authentic Italian restaurant with outdoor tables. The food is typically Sardinian.
I have eaten here once and ordered a pizza for takeaway once as well.
The pizza was good, generously topped, although not the best of bread or flavour I have experienced.
I had a taglioni with fresh grab, cherry tomatoes, garlic and chilli when I sat in for dinner. I had the small portion and it was enough as a main. It was a delicious plate of fresh, thin pasta noodles coated in a beautiful soffrito and a generous offering of tomatoes and crab. My one complaint is that I love crab and as it was drenched in a strongly flavoured oil with garlic and onion, had I closed my eyes, I would not have known there was any crab in the dish. There was just no flavour of crab. It would have been better to place a quinelle of lightly dressed crabmeat on top of the pasta so that it could be tasted alongside the tomatoey base.
I will still be coming back here, but will likely order more wisely.
