Oficina 00 restaurant in London, an artisanal pasta venue, has established itself in the city’s dining scene with locations in Old Street, Fitzrovia, and the newly opened Covent Garden branch. Founded by childhood friends Elia Sebregondi and Enzo Mirto, both hailing from Naples, the restaurant’s name reflects their culinary philosophy: “Officina” means “workshop” in Italian, and “00” denotes the finest grade of flour used in pasta making.
Each Officina 00 location blends modern design with traditional Italian elements. The interiors feature open kitchens, allowing diners to observe the pasta-making process—a testament to the restaurant’s commitment to craftsmanship. Comfortable leather seating, wooden accents, and ample natural light create a relaxed dining environment. The Covent Garden branch, situated at 8-10 Dryden Street, continues this aesthetic, providing a cosy space that complements the neighbourhood.
A distinctive aspect of Officina 00 is its dedication to fresh, handcrafted pasta. Diners can witness the pasta-making process firsthand, enhancing the dining experience with a sense of authenticity and connection to Italian culinary traditions. The restaurant also offers pasta-making workshops, inviting guests to immerse themselves in pasta creation. These workshops cater to various skill levels and provide a hands-on approach to learning traditional techniques.
