Dez Amore, the Italian street food concept, has opened its first standalone restaurant on Fulham Road, London.
The 1,178 sq ft flagship space marks the brands first space outside of a food hall, following stints across several market-led destinations such as Camden, Mercato Mayfair, and Boxpark.
The brand specialises in traditional Italian dishes with a “unique and contemporary twist”, including a range of pasta, pizza, burgers, and antipasti, as well as desserts such as chocolate and pistachio cheesecake.
The new space pays homage to founders Leonardo Masi and Simone Parentini’s traditional Italian roots, and has been designed by Timothee Studio. It joins nearby coffee operator Kiss The Hippo and Claude Bosi’s French neighbourhood restaurant, Josephine.
Masi said, “We are very proud because this restaurant represents our first space outside of a food hall. This is our flagship store, the first of a long series, and a space where you can really immerse yourself in our reality: living a true Italian experience signed Dez Amore. In the colours, in the flavours, in the fragrances.
”I have dedicated my life to cooking, my true passion between pasta, bread and pizza. This store represents an achievement and an important milestone on a personal level as well.”
Hannah Grievson, property irector at Sloane Stanley, addded, “We have dedicated a lot of time over the last few months to elevate our F&B offer, and it’s great to see it take shape with the opening of Dez Amore, and many more to follow in the coming weeks. Dez Amore have showcased its success and popularity across London, and it will be fantastic to have a thriving pizza and pasta operator in the heart of our estate.”
