San Carlo is bringing the gorgeous taste of autumn in Sicily to Castle Street with a new menu full of seasonal ingredients and hearty dishes.
This time of year is a special one in southern Italy and Sicily where the restaurant has its roots because it doesn’t just look beautiful, the fresh produce and flavours are amazing.
And it’s when families and friends really enjoy the chance to cosy up indoors with lots of warming home-cooked food which definitely feels like a perfect idea in Liverpool too.
San Carlo menus always use the best seasonal ingredients, sourcing and flying them in so they’re totally authentic.
Now the Castle Street restaurant has new menu dishes for autumn that make the most of some of the popular produce and traditional recipes loved by locals.


For starters, as well as the traditional chunky Minestrone and chicken and cauliflowersoups that are great for this weather, there’s Funghi Piemontese -mixed mushrooms in garlic and parsley butter in a filo pastry basket. Heritage Tomato Salad with goats cheese and black olives is a nice light option to start, along with Tartare di Manzo, beef tartare with mustard dressing.
Fans of San Carlo know it has some fabulous pasta dishes, all freshly handmade in-house. This season, alongside the best-selling Tagliolini all’Aragosta, itsmost famous pasta with lobster, brandy, tomato, peas and a touch of cream, there’s are some seasonal must-tries.
If you’re someone who looks forward to October so you can have pumpkin in everything from lattes to soups, you’re in luck because the new Cartellate Zucca e Tartufo is a delicious combination ofhandmade pasta parcels with pumpkin, pecorino, sage, butter and fresh truffle.
Grilled meats are another big autumn favourite, especially with rich flavour-packed sauces, and nothing fits that tasty pairing quite like San Carlo’s new Agnello Toscana: lamb cutlets with Barolo red wine, rosemary and sunblushed tomato.
Or, if you’re a steak lover it has to be the 8oz fillet steak, sliced and served with fresh Italian dressing.
Whatever you choose, don’t forget to add truffle mash on the side and you’ll have a true indulgent taste of Sicily, right here on Castle Street!
