About Alba
Alba sits at 70 Brompton Road, directly opposite Harrods, and does two things under one roof: an Italian restaurant built around southern classics and the sea, and a Japanese kitchen with an intimate omakase counter.
Italian Head Chef Cristian Ianni leads the Italian menu, drawing on family recipes brought up to date. Highlights include lobster linguine, pink prawn carpaccio, crab ravioli, octopus alla Luciana and Amalfi tagliolini with red Mazara prawns.
Japanese Head Chef Takuya Kaneko runs the omakase: ten seats at the counter, two seatings a night (6.30pm and 8.30pm, Tuesday to Saturday), and a choice of a nine-course or twelve-course menu built around the day's catch. A Japanese à la carte is served at lunch and dinner, Tuesday to Saturday.
