La Gioconda

Situated in the heart of Hornsey, La Gioconda, an Italian foodie gem, calls in diners to enjoy a
symphony of flavours woven into its diverse menu. Embark on your culinary journey with enticing
starters, such as bruschetta adorned with creamy mushrooms and rich truffle, or indulge in a curated
selection of Italian salami paired with cheeses and bread - a starter that is always a crowd pleaser.
For a truly Italian feel, enjoy an appetiser experience of homemade beef meatballs, served alongside
garlic crostini bread.
For the main course, the menu presents a grilled sea bass, this succulent dish is served with a side of
perfectly grilled vegetables and potatoes. Alternatively, delve into the indulgence of oven-baked
gnocchi featuring a medley of four cheeses – gorgonzola, mozzarella, parmesan, and pecorino
Romano. The pasta selection extends to classics like seafood linguine and ravioli generously filled
with ricotta and spinach, and who can say no to such creamy, delicious cheesy dishes as these?
Adding a touch of sophistication to the dining experience, La Gioconda hosts a monthly wine tasting
on the last Wednesday of every month. Diners are treated to an exquisite pairing of five wines and
five canapés, creating a delightful sensory experience at an attractive price. Additionally, the
restaurant offers weekend brunches on Saturday and Sunday, featuring classic brunch dishes with a
distinct Italian twist.
