Senza Fondo's dishes are going to be impastable to resist.
Thanks to the rise of Italian-American cuisine in London, the likes of Grasso and Ria's have become the talk of the (very hungry) town. Then, we saw Lasagneria Italiana go viral for bringing FOMO foodies an impressive 19 different types of lasagne. But this year there was a new kid on the block – namely Senza Fondo (aptly meaning ‘without end’), which opened on 20th February 2025 in Shoreditch. What’s on the menu? The stuff of Garfield’s dreams: bottomless lasagne.
That’s right, this recent opening from Joe Worthington (formerly of Hawksmoor and Drake & Morgan) is a celebration of the Italian comfort food classic. You can nab unlimited slabs of the stuff for £22, with options including a slow-cooked beef lasagne, plus a rotating vegetarian choice (which upon opening will be artichoke). If that wasn't enough, there's a lunchtime hatch slinging out a hybrid lasagne-sandwich - the lasangwich.
You'll also find tasty nibbles such as Sicilian anchovies and mortadella with pistachio, not to mention fettucine alfredo, casarecce and mushroom ragu, a sharing-style aubergine parmigiana and, of course, an indulgent tiramisu that we can’t wait to get our mitts on. You'll be able to enjoy all of this in a warm, cosy setting reminiscent of both traditional Italian trattorias and the Italian-American restaurants you'd find across Boston, Chicago and New York.
For those who fancy a drink, make sure to check out the Kevin Lasagna bar at the back of the restaurant, which will be serving classic cocktails (including £5 negronis) and an entirely Italian-American wine list.
Senza Fondo location: 1 Rufus Street, Shoreditch, N1 6PE.
