About Cheikho's Restaurant - Oadby

Nestled in Leicester's suburb of Oadby, Cheikho's Italian specialises in the delicate flavours of Italian cuisine and delivers sublime dishes for the enjoyment of its patrons. Cheikho's thoughtfully constructed menu is not over-laden with numerous dishes that make it difficult for customers to decide what to order. Rather, it is generous in its range of options whilst specialising in a select number of premium traditional Italian dishes to provide the perfect snapshot of Italy's culinary highlights. A delicate fan of melon sets the menu off with polished refinement, served with an assortment of seasonal fruits decadently drenched in champagne. A classic moules mariniere offers a delightful alternative. Or try the restaurant's soup of the day served with Cheikho's freshly prepared and baked bread. A taste of the ocean is delivered by way of a superb seafood feast comprised of salmon, mussels and king prawns. Traditional pasta dishes make an unsurprising appearance in the shape of lamb penne arabiatta, and rigatoni carbonara. Another classic Italian meal is one consisting of gnocchi and this is featured here too. Desserts on offer are short and sweet: tiramisu, lemoncello cheesecake and toscanella profiteroles. One only has to look at the sweet menu to know they are in an Italian restaurant and that the hosts are paying respectful homage to their culinary roots.

This combination of elements lends an elegant and sophisticated air to the dining room. It is an attractive space in which to relax, with a light and roomy feel adding to guests' comfort.
