Our story The Distefano family, spanning two generations, started San Carlo over 30 years ago and seen it grow to twenty-five authentic Italian restaurants across the UK – from Covent Garden, Piccadilly and Knightsbridge in London to Bristol, Leicester, Liverpool Leeds, Cheshire and Manchester and with a growing number overseas – including Kuwait, Bangkok and Qatar and with new sites set to open in Bahrain, Dubai and Riyadh. Our values In a world dominated by big chains and centralised kitchens, San Carlo stands out with defiant independence. Each of their award-winning Italian restaurants has its own team of skilled chefs and managers, committed to crafting every dish onsite using only the finest Italian seasonal produce – a genuine love for excellent food, top-notch service, and undeniable style.
