The culinary focus is on small plates or cicchetti using the freshest seasonal ingredients – mostly sourced direct from produce markets in Milan. The cuisine represents local specialities from the varying Italian regions and includes dishes such as Tagliolini Lobster, Cod Vicentina - Venetian style cod, Homemade Gnocchi Truffle (crispy gnocchi with cheese fondue with truffle) and Guazzetto di Cozze e Vongole (mussels and clams with tomato sauce, chilli and white wine) and Tuna Tartare made at your table with the best Sicillian tuna

    Excellent food at Fumo, with the Pollo Milanese and Insalata Zucco particularly good. Only downside on this occasion was that they were unusually slow and so we didn't have time for dessert. But otherwise very good.

    The restaurant always busy, particularly for pre-theatre due to its location. The all day menu that runs to early evening is also excellent value. Although 4-6 small plates are recommended for 2 people I would suggest between 2 (with extra side dishes) and 4. The service is quick and efficient. I wouldn’t call it fine dining but it’s great for a quick meal or lunch.

    Always fantastic here! I come back time and time again as a solo diner on business and I always feel welcome and accommodated. Food is fantastic quality, great selection, I always over order! This time I had the beef carpaccio and tempura prawns - generous size portion for prawns and the sauce flavour was beautiful. Cocktail (Relief) was fragrant and refreshing and I really enjoyed the experience from beginning to end. Affogato - can’t end a meal here without it! 10/10

    Whilst the restaurant looks inviting the menu was poor, staff were sassy and the vibe was rushed and undervalued.
