The clocks go back on Sunday 25 October, and the walk home from King's Cross gets darker. That's when the main menu at Fiena, our family-run Italian restaurant at 4 Medway Court, Judd Street, comes into its own. Anastasia found us on a cold evening: Straight from Kings Cross to this cozy warm food in December, exactly what was needed
(Anastasia B., Google review). Here is what we'd point you to once the coats come out.
Lasagna and slow-cooked ragù
Our lasagna is layers of fresh pasta, slow-cooked beef ragù, creamy béchamel, mozzarella and parmesan. The same ragù goes into the spaghetti bolognese, which Katelyn rated alongside her drink: Best aperol spritz and spaghetti bolognaise I've had in a while!
(Katelyn S., Google review). If you'd rather have something lighter but still warming, the ravioli ricotta and spinach comes in a sage and butter sauce.
Mushrooms, three ways
Autumn is mushroom season, and the menu has them in three forms:
- Funghi al forno to start: a baked flat mushroom with ricotta and spinach sauce and parmesan (vegetarian, gluten-free).
- Risotto mushrooms: creamy Arborio risotto with mushroom, parmesan and butter (vegetarian, gluten-free).
- Arancini mushroom with saffron sauce, if you want to share something first.
Gluten-free penne is available for every pasta dish, so the bolognese works for coeliac guests too.
Something from the grill
For a heavier plate, the lamb cutlets come grilled with beef jus and roasted potatoes, and the saltimbocca alla Romana is pan-fried veal with Parma ham and sage in a butter and sage sauce. John had just been to Italy: I was in Napoli last week and the food wasn't far off from the real deal.

A red for a cold night
Our wine list leans Italian. For autumn, try the Montepulciano d'Abruzzo (plum and red berry, soft tannins), the Vitis Nostra Nero d'Avola from Sicily (black cherry, dried fruit, hints of chocolate and spice), or go big with the Barolo or the Fidora Amarone.
“Lovely setting, great food and very friendly and attentive service.”

Finish warm
The dessert menu has the soufflé al cioccolato with its liquid chocolate centre, a warm chocolate brownie with ice cream, and an affogato if you want coffee and dessert in one. Ayub's pick still stands: the tiramisu was a highlight!
