Spice Dines East – Uffizzi Restaurant, Walthamstow
Overview
Continuing our series of dining out on the east side of London, join us for dinner at Uffizzi Restaurant on the Walthamstow, Leyton, Leytonstone border.
Established more than 30 years ago, this small, independent restaurant offers traditional Italian fare with a modern twist. Their pizza dough is made daily by their own pizza chef and all meals from the varied menu are prepared in-house. Named after the art gallery in Florence, the interior walls are decorated with replicas of the gallery's most famous Renaissance pieces whilst the outside is designed to resemble an old Italian shuttered house.
With meat, fish, seafood and vegetarian options, see here to whet your appetite.
