About NOTTO

Seriously good pasta. Without the serious price.

NOTTO was founded around a simple belief: exceptional food shouldn't have to be expensive, formal or saved for special occasions. We make fresh pasta every day, cook it with outstanding ingredients and serve it generously, whether you've got twenty minutes for lunch or an evening to spend with us.

The idea

Michelin-starred thinking. Everyday eating.

Pasta has appeared on Phil Howard's menus throughout his career, from The Square to Elystan Street. NOTTO takes everything he's learned about ingredients, flavour and technique and puts it into something much simpler: a really good bowl of pasta at a really good price. Some sauces are rustically simple. Others are rich and luxurious. What doesn't change is the quality of what goes into them.

Rule No.1

Start with brilliant ingredients.

There are plenty of places to save money. Ingredients aren't one of them. We work with suppliers Phil has known and trusted for years, buying from the best farmers, producers, fishermen, foragers and Italian specialists we can find. The cooking can be simple because the ingredients are good enough to let it be.
