Restaurant Butler

Choice of Les Clefs d'Or
Concierge Association

Moscow boasts a number of Italian chefs, and among the most prominent is Giuseppe Davi from Verona, who leads the Butler restaurant on Trekhprudny Side-street. Here, traditional Italian cuisine, with an emphasis on Sicilian cooking, has undergone some transformation, and there are starched tablecloths, stucco on the ceilings, and a complete sense of an impending grand celebration. In the summer, tables are set in the courtyard, beneath the crystal chandeliers that hang in the sky, casting a soothing light on dishes such as spaghetti with mullet bottarga, tomatoes, capers, and olives, as well as other culinary delights from Giuseppe.
