WE PAINTED BLACK

THE ART OF
CASUAL ITALIAN DINING

              Directly from our heritage, experience and years of practice in the best restaurants in Italy and UK.

On fall 2023, the Italian Restaurant, which draws its name from the iconic song “Paint It, Black” by The Rolling Stones, has captured the attention of locals and visitors alike. It offers an inviting ambiance, delectable Italian cuisine, and a chic design that merges tradition with contemporary allure, while subtly alluding to Damien Hirst’s recent works.
