Welcome to
Luigi’s at The Griffin
With the success of our Maldon location, Luigi’s Al Fresco, and now our second restaurant in Danbury, we've expanded to bring our exceptional flavours, with traditional recipes straight from the heart of Italy to Essex.
"Our goal has always been to bring a taste of Italy to Essex. We proudly define our cuisine as traditional, staying true to the original recipes passed down through generations, using methods inspired by our great grandmothers. We believe that using high-quality, seasonal ingredients is key to creating the perfect dish, which is why we carefully source from local suppliers, small producers, and, of course, from our hometown." — Enzo, Emily & Giovanni
Our Concept
“We offer a diverse selection of dishes that capture the essence of Italy, from north to south. I aim to showcase the rich diversity of Italy’s regions, not just by replicating tradition, but by bringing it to life with my own twist, inspired by my travels and memories” - Chef Enzo
