There’s space for everyone at our table. Why not pull up a chair?

Our story:

The Distefano family, spanning two generations, started San Carlo over 30 years ago and has seen it grow to twenty-five authentic Italian restaurants across the UK – from Covent Garden, Piccadilly and Knightsbridge in London to Bristol, Leicester, Liverpool, Leeds, Cheshire and Manchester, with a growing number overseas – including Kuwait, Bangkok, Dubai, Miami & Sardinia with additional restaurant openings planned as San Carlo continues to expand globally.

You might think we are famous for our authentic Italian food, our warm atmosphere or our distinctive style and service and of course we are, but it’s actually the people behind the ART of San Carlo, who work together to make each memorable experience happen. Nothing we deliver to our guests would be possible without our team of accomplished colleagues.

For over 30 years, we’ve upheld our reputation for Italian cuisine, hospitality and style. From the moment Carlo opened the doors in 1992, we’ve been dedicated to crafting experiences that celebrate the very best of Italian life, food and culture.
