Italian Restaurant, Shoreditch, East London
Gloria, trattoria autentica
Meet Gloria – A Vibrant Italian Restaurant in Shoreditch, London. A joyful and authentic Italian restaurant, 70’s Capri style, nestled in the heart of East London.
Run by a passionate team of 85 Italians from the Bel Paese and the sun-kissed coast of Naples, Gloria brings you the very best of Italian cuisine, from lunch through dinner. An explosive menu of homemade pasta, traditional Italian dishes, and high-quality ingredients sourced directly from over 180 small producers across Italy. From the rich and indulgent Mafaldine al Tartufo, made with fresh truffle, to the pillowy Neapolitan pizzas baked in our Marana oven. Favourites like truffle arancini, indulgent lasagna, and La Gran Carbonara, are all crafted with love in our open kitchen using only the finest produce.
When it comes to drinks, a curated wine list featuring iconic labels like Tignanello and Super Tuscans, all stored in our cosy wine room. Or sip on signature cocktails like the Thyme Negroni or a bold, bubbly Bellini during our lively aperitivo hour.
Don’t forgot to order dessert, our show-stopping Lemon Pie, topped with 15cm of airy Italian meringue.
Gloria is our little corner of Italy over two floors. Open for lunch & dinner. Joyful and lush by day, the place gets funky at night, with house made playlists and a cozy vibe downstairs, all within skipping distance of Liverpool Street and Old Street stations.
