Celebrating 24 Years
Amalfi Beckenham is a family-run restaurant with a simple promise. Serve great, clean food with warmth, pride and consistency. At the centre is Samir, a seasoned restaurateur who once led a successful chain of more than thirteen restaurants. After years at scale, he chose to return to what first inspired him. A welcoming dining room, a focused menu and guests who become friends.
Today, the whole family is involved. Samir sets the vision and greets regulars by name. His son brings energy to the floor and a sharp eye for new ideas. His daughter curates the stories behind the wines and dishes, keeping the brand true to its roots.
The values are clear. Fresh seasonal ingredients. Honest Italian flavours. Respect for suppliers and for every guest who walks through the door. Pasta is made with care. Seafood is handled with delicacy. Plates are balanced and bright. Nothing leaves the pass unless it feels right.
Amalfi Beckenham is a place to slow down and eat well. A family home in restaurant form, built on passion, experience and genuine hospitality.
Our chef
Welcome to Amalfi Beckenham, where passion meets tradition!
Our story began with a deep love for Italian culture and cuisine. Inspired by the vibrant flavours and warmth of Italy, our family set out to create a restaurant where everyone could experience authentic Italian hospitality.
Chef Ylli
Masterchef Italian Cuisine
Chef Ylli leads the kitchen at Amalfi Beckenham with more than twenty years of Italian cooking, honed in Italy and refined in London. His philosophy is simple: source seasonal produce, make pasta fresh each morning, and let clean flavours shine through precise technique.
Expect dishes rarely found in London, such as tagliolini with hand-picked crab and Amalfi lemon, paccheri with octopus ragu, saffron risotto with prawns, and braised beef cheek with Barolo and rosemary polenta. Desserts stay classic with feather-light tiramisu and crisp cannoli. Daily specials and thoughtful wines from Campania complete a warm, memorable experience for guests.
