Enoteca Italiana

Charming Italian fare in a converted home
Popular plate: Enoteca Italiana is famed for its excellent homemade pastas, such as the cocoa flour pappardelle (served with wild boar sauce) and ravioli with porcini mushroom and truffles.

Well off the beaten track in a quiet residential area, this Italian eatery is in a lovely converted contemporary home. Small, intimate, and very charming—and run by passionate expat Nicola Bonazza—Enoteca has a real family feel.
Dishes here are hearty with some unusual flavour combinations, such as the salt-crusted barramundi with eggplant, caviar, and dried tomato, or the pan-fried langoustine in pancetta and herb butter. The wine list also packs a lot of power, especially for such an unassuming eatery—with over 70 vintages, the list covers nearly every region of Italy.
