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 Hospitalityβs 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
Donβt 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. Thereβs 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.
