Located at theatre and live events space Underbelly Boulevard Soho the restaurant will serve seasonal dishes including fresh pasta and Italian wines with a regularly changing menu.
The restaurant will sit on the first floor of the venue and be open to everyone, not just ticket holders, and will offer a pre-theatre menu of two courses for £25 and three for £30.
“We’re thrilled to be opening Artusi Soho at Underbelly Boulevard,” says founder and head chef Jack Beer.
“Soho is the ultimate dining location, and Underbelly is the perfect fit for our down to earth neighbourhood style restaurant. You can see a great show AND spend your evening eating delicious Italian-inspired cuisine, what more could you want.”
The space was previously home to Kitty Fisher’s Group’s Cafe Kitty, which opened in November last year but which closed its doors in august after less than 12 months of trading.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled for the acclaimed and much loved Artusi to be opening their doors with us in Soho,” says Ed Bartlam, co-director of Underbelly Boulevard.
“They have made their name combining delicious Italian food with a relaxed and informal atmosphere. This is a great fit for Underbelly Boulevard and we know that Artusi Soho will be a great place to come for informal business lunches, social dinners and of course parties for all occasions.”
Artusi opened in Peckham in 2014 and sister restaurant Marcella opened in Deptford three years later.
Artusi Soho opens on 1 November.
