About this spot
Franzina Trattoria serves Southern Italian food that actually represents the region's bold, rustic flavors rather than the watered-down versions common in London. Their pasta dishes showcase proper technique with house-made noodles that have the right bite, while the meat preparations reflect the hearty, peasant-style cooking that makes Southern Italian cuisine so satisfying. The wine list focuses on lesser-known Southern Italian bottles that pair perfectly with the food.
