Quattro Plus

Wood-fired pizza and chewy fresh pasta are at the heart of the menu at Quattro Plus, alongside the antipasti and drinks you would expect from an Italian bar. One visitor ordered the Siciliana, a tomato-sauce pizza topped with basil, garlic, anchovies, capers, oregano and olives. They described its crust as thin yet satisfyingly chewy, with a refreshing tang from the toppings. Diners have also commented on the dough and the wood-fired baking. The selection ranges from a simple Margherita to Quattro Formaggi, a choice for those who want to make the most of the cheese.

For pasta, the Genovese is worth a look. A diner who tried it singled out the fresh pasta’s chewy bite, the richness of the cheese and the aroma of basil. Other options include cacio e pepe with cheese and black pepper, arrabbiata with green chilli, and vongole bianco, so there are sauces to suit different tastes.

You could start with a few antipasti before sharing a pizza. The menu lists country-style pâté made with pork and chicken liver, clams and asparagus steamed in white wine, and fried potatoes, among other dishes. One distinctive option is the crab-miso Basque cheesecake: the menu describes onions sautéed until sweet, combined with plenty of crab miso and cream cheese, then baked. If the idea of a cheesecake to accompany a drink appeals, it could be an interesting one to try with a small plate.

Wine is available by the glass or bottle, and the cocktail list includes a range of choices, from mojitos to martinis. For a visit that calls for coffee rather than another drink, there is also tiramisu with espresso or a café latte.

There is counter seating as well as table service. The restaurant can suit a solo drink or a meal shared with a group over antipasti and pizza.
