Mennula Description
Mennula is the Sicilian word for almond; for centuries almonds have been an important part of Italian / Sicilian cuisine.
Chef patron Santino Busciglio and his business partner Joe Martorana are both from Cianciana in the Provence of Agrigento in Sicily, a city which has a month long festival celebrating the first blossoming almonds of the early spring, so choosing the name Mennula was really quite a simple one.
The decor at Mennula has been designed by Joe Martorana and Santino Busciglio to be both warm and welcoming with its comfortable deep aubergine seating, walnut floors and Italian
Mennula is an Italian restaurant at the heart of London's media district on Charlotte Street near Soho Square. Within easy walking distance of Oxford Circus, Covent Garden and Theatreland, Mennula is in a great location for pre and post theatre dining.
