"Osteria Vibrato's glossy, deep-red Sicilian red prawns come liberally doused in good olive oil. Much has been made of the fact that, before becoming a sommelier, Mellor was a classically trained opera singer."
"Mellor has again leant into notions of musicality at his new place, the term vibrato being a vocal effect, after all."
"While we were tearing our way through starters of gratinated mussels and Sicilian red prawns, we enjoyed the talents of someone from nearby Ronnie Scott's tinkling away on the piano."
"Osteria Vibrato is certainly a more adult affair than the Laughing Heart ever was, not least because of its sophisticated ambiance and quality offerings."
Osteria Vibrato opened on Greek Street in Soho, presenting itself as a typical Italian restaurant. However, it is the latest venture by Charlie Mellor, known for his previous success with the Laughing Heart. The restaurant features a menu with dishes like Sicilian red prawns and gratinated mussels, emphasizing quality ingredients. Mellor's background as a sommelier and opera singer influences the restaurant's atmosphere, which includes live piano music, creating a more adult dining experience compared to his previous establishment.
