Jacuzzi opened in 2023 as a 170-seat Italian trattoria from the Big Mamma group, joining their London collection of themed restaurants.

The Summer Menu emphasizes seasonality, featuring crab croquettes, tomato and ricotta salad, Sicilian monkfish with couscous and lobster bisque, fresh pastas, and a peach frangipane tart with Chantilly cream. Burrata and other produce are flown in twice weekly from Italy to maintain authenticity amid the playful, theatrical atmosphere.
