La Caricatura
About La Caricatura
Fancy blowing £150 on pizza? The house speciality at Mayfair newcomer, boutique pizzeria La Caricatura, comes topped with Canadian lobster and Sevruga caviar. Not that you need deep pockets to eat here - most of the masterpiece pizzas are under £10, all created in a hand-built, wood-burning oven that reaches the ideal 500 degrees. Bestsellers among the non-pizza dishes are the seafood pasta where you choose the pasta, and a very nice grilled seabass with lemon sole. A local business crowd fills the tables every day for the great value £15, two-course lunch. Though formal, La Caricatura is staffed by thick-accented Italians who'll welcome you even whether there for just a drink or for the famously grand pizza.
