Sale e Pepe of Knightsbridge is a London institution welcoming generations of guests and lovers of traditional Italian food, ranging from British to Hollywood royalty, politicians, writers, singers, theatre goers, shoppers and residents alike with great atmosphere, familiar faces and classic Italian hospitality.

Located next to Sloane Street, one of London's most exclusive fashion shopping streets, we are a two minute walk from Harrods and Harvey Nichols in Knightsbridge.

The restaurant started service out of two shop fronts on Pavilion Road in 1974, and in 1985 it was extended further to create a bar providing the perfect location for pre and after dinner drinks.

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Sale e Pepe is a beloved London dining spot known for its "wonderful food" and "outstanding service." Guests frequently praise its cozy ambiance and attentive staff. While some note the space can be tight and service occasionally slow, the delicious Italian cuisine consistently wins over diners. Ideal for smaller groups seeking a taste of Italy.

    Very busy which is a good sign. One of our party was unable to make it down to London because of the storm and to be honest I’m not sure we would have squeezed 4 in around our table as we all had big coats and bags (is there a cloakroom?) and we were next to a larger, louder group. That said, the atmosphere was very convivial, the food was excellent and we had a lovely evening. Will definitely add it to the list of fab Italians to eat at for fantastic food.

    Another amazing visit! Our favorite restaurant in London. Came for lunch and shared the Caesar salad (which was made table side by their manager, Elisa) and shared the rigatoni vodka sauce. Both were delicious and a perfect lunch combo! The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. Again, we love the vibe and energy as well as the hospitality. Always meet locals that go there often so it's not your typical tourist spot. Thank you again to Elisa for always making us feel so welcome.

    È ancora un buon ristorante. Ci piace il cambiamento del arredamento. Ma purtroppo ha perso l’ambiente di italiano vero. Quasi nessuno parla italiano. Non è come prima quando il sentimento era di entrare un ristorante a Roma. Sicuramente ritorneremo ma manchiamo il sentimento italiano.
    Sale e PepeResponded on 2 December 2024
    Hi Gunnar, thank you so much for your feedback and for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very sorry hear you no longer enjoy visiting us as you did. We have had a well deserved refurbishment to celebrate 50 years and have had a lot of feedback from our guests. We look forward to welcoming you again and providing that well-loved Italian charm and service! Kind regards, Sale e Pepe

    Ambiance nice, though quite noisy. I had the porcini risotto. It was very overcooked although the flavours were there. Also didn’t like the rice they used. Tasted like normal rice.

    Very lively restaurant! Octopus starter was delicious. The Cacio et Pepe pasta could have been better - it was oily/buttery and not as creamy. The lamb for two was delicious - perfect portion and cooked really well.
