For this year’s Wimbledon Championships, Novikov Italian invites guests to watch the tournament live in the restaurant, while celebrating pre-game excitement, or post-match triumphs with a special Wimbledon dessert; The Lawn Ball.

The special menu item is created by Novikov’s brilliant Pastry Chef Roberto Guzzi and will feature a tennis ball dessert, created with Yuzu mousse, red berries and a Frangipane base (a sweet almond-flavoured cream). The dessert will be available from the 30th June – 13th July.

Celebrating the tournament, Novikov Italian and Novikov Lounge will each have a screen and a TV, streaming live games throughout the championships.

Novikov Italian, with its imposing wood-fired oven, suede wall panelling and rustic chandeliers, offers an extensive selection of regional Italian dishes with a contemporary twist. Keeping up with the “fatto a mano” tradition, freshly made pizza and pasta play a pivotal role on the menu and feature the likes of a classic Carbonara, served in a baby parmesan wheel, the signature Seafood pizza with Buffalo Mozzarella, Fior di latte, Seafood & Parsley Oil and a Truffle pizza with Buffalo Mozzarella, Fior Di Latte, Soft Cheeses and Black Truffle.
