A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home

Though tucked beneath a sleek modern apartment building, Lagotto feels like a neighbourhood institution. That sense of belonging comes from Milieu Hospitality’s thoughtful approach β€” after running a six-month pop-up on-site, they finely tuned the concept to what locals truly wanted.


Modern Italian with Heart

Head chef Matteo Fulchiati (formerly of Osteria Ilaria) leads the kitchen with an evolving menu of Italian classics, reimagined with creative Australian twists.


Signatures and Seasonal Stars

Signature dishes include pillowy wholemeal focaccia with molasses and brown butter, and a vibrant seafood spaghettoni. Seasonal highlights have featured King Fish crudo and mains like Wagyu rump cap with collard greens, egg yolk, and lemon.


A Sweet Finish

Don’t miss finishing with the decadent tiramisu topped with burnt chocolate coffee caramel.


Sips That Speak Italian

The drinks list shines with Italian-inspired cocktails such as a seasonal spritz and a perfectly balanced Negroni. There’s also an impressive range of imported and local amaro, alongside a carefully curated wine list spotlighting minimal-intervention, biodynamic, and organic wines from both Italy and Australia.


Take the Experience Home

Love something you try? Ask the friendly staff about taking a bottle home β€” the in-house wine and liquor store offers a thoughtful selection to browse.
