About Buonasera
Here at Buona Sera, we’re proud to have been a part of south London’s Battersea and Clapham communities for over a quarter century, meaning we now greet the children of some of our long-time regulars at our Northcote Road restaurant. The Buona Sera story began back in 1989, when we opened a small restaurant here in Battersea. Over the years, our customer base has grown, and our local regulars and fans of good Italian food from across London have watched us grow from a single shopfront to a bustling restaurant. The key to our longevity and our success is, we believe, our authentic approach to Italian cuisine and vibrant atmosphere – a combination that makes our guests feel very much like they’re at home. Take a look at our menus and extensive wine selection, find out more about us, and make your reservations. We look forward to seeing you at Buona Sera soon!
