Alba brings a taste of the Amalfi Coast to Knightsbridge


ALBA has joined the West London restaurant scene with their recent opening on Brompton Road bringing La Dolce Vita to London’s Knightsbridge. With inspiration from the Amalfi coast the new eatery aims to transport you to sunny southern Italy.

A real citrus tree has been brought into the space to perfume the air and give an alfresco feel to the dining experience. The art is bespoke commissions from the Italian artist Linda Leupold and the New York-based painter Bradley Wood. With their playful uses of colour, they bring a bright summer feel. 

The food is centred around favoured dishes from the country, seeking to bring the rich flavours of the Mediterranean to every course. Luxurious flourishes have been added like caviar, truffle, wagyu and yellowfin tuna to elevate the dining experience to reflect its surroundings. 

ALBA

The restaurant’s atmosphere has been achieved with the help of award-winning architecture studio YODEZEEN. With a classic Amalfi colour palette of olive greens, lemon yellows, soft browns and terracotta accents, the space immediately transports you away from the grey tones of London. With a Venetian floor and emerald marble bar, no expense has been spared on the decor making it a brilliant place to sit and wind down in.
