| Harrogate’s
newest Italian restaurant, San Martino is a gem just yards from the Exhibition
Halls on Swan Road, close to the Old Swan and Studley Hotels. Opened in October 2005, the intimate and exclusive restaurant is owned and run by a father and son team Costanzo and Tommaso from Lucca in Tuscany, with head waiter Matias from Milan. The stylish bar area is an ideal place to enjoy an aperitif and select wines to accompany |
your
meal, and the restaurant itself is a warm and elegant space with leather
chairs and the finest linens, cutlery and glassware, has all been designed with great attention to detail. The menu at San Martino has a great choice of classic Italian favourites, all cooked using the freshest ingredients and to Martinucci family recipes. The wide range of seafood, pasta and steak dishes is bound to appeal |
to most
palates, but the restaurant’s signature dish, invented by owner
Costanzo Matinucci is the Spaghetti San Martino cooked in a paper bag. Created in 1971 at Costanzo’s Chelsea restaurant of the same name, the now famous dish is a delicious combination of fine freshly made pasta, seafood and secret ingredients, all cooked – unusually - in a paper bag to seal in taste and cook the pasta to perfection. |
Costanzo
serves wine from his own personal vineyard, and the bar sells all the
finest spirits and liquers such as limoncello, made at their villa in Lucca. Quite simply one of the finest and most individual Italian restaurants in Yorkshire, San Martino will not disappoint any fan of fine service and authentic quality Italian cuisine. The venue can be booked for private parties up to 50, and is open daily for lunch and dinner. |
