About Luna Ristorante Italiano

Five Dock locals turn to this trattoria for honest Southern Italian cooking straight from Puglia. The woodfired pizzas land with soft, chewy crusts blistered from the deck—capped with toppings like prosciutto crudo or creamy burrata. Handmade pastas anchor the kitchen, turning out regional signatures from delicate crab cavatelli to golden panzerotto fried crisp to order.

  • Pugliese Specialties: Chef-led regional recipes featuring handmade crab cavatelli, swordfish carpaccio, and crisp panzerotto.
  • Woodfired Pizza: Artisan dough rested for slow fermentation yields a light, blistered crust with balanced toppings.
  • Family-Style Dining: Large family gatherings and milestones accommodated with sharing plates and Italian wine selections.

Why Dine at Luna Ristorante Italiano

Discover why guests choose Luna Ristorante Italiano for authentic regional cuisine, celebratory gatherings, and flexible catering.

  • Authentic Southern Italian & Pugliese Pasta

    Dishes are crafted around authentic Southern Italian recipes and handmade regional pasta varieties like crab cavatelli, led by a chef hailing directly from Puglia.

    I had crab cavatelli, handmade pasta from south of Italy. If you want to have an authentic Italian experience, this is the place.

  • Artisan Woodfired Pizza

    Pizzas are baked in a dedicated woodfired pizza oven featuring soft, chewy crusts prepared with extended dough fermentation.

    Every pizza was perfectly cooked and delicious. The crust is soft and chewy, and the toppings are balanced and seasoned.

  • Flexible Group Dining & Attentive Hosting

    Staff handle large group bookings and dynamic schedule shifts with welcoming hospitality, personal recommendations, and attentive service.

    I came here with a large group, we were running behind (a lot) because of the weather and traffic, the restaurant were able to honour our booking and make amazing recommendations.

    Catering orders for large off-site events and recurring takeaway orders are handled smoothly with flexible collection times outside regular hours.

    They were extremely flexible and accomodating with our request to pick up earlier than their restaurant opening time. Our guests commented on how delicious the pizzas and pastas were.

Beyond the menu

    For a large catering order of 20+ pizzas and handmade pastas, the team accommodated an early morning pickup prior to regular opening hours to ensure event meals were hot and ready.

  • Attentive Dietary Accommodations

    Co-owners Filippo and Lisa personally tailor orders and accommodate specific dietary requirements each week, pairing attentive care with their woodfired oven offerings.

  • Weather and Traffic Delay Hospitality

    When a party ran significantly behind schedule due to adverse weather and heavy traffic, the venue held their booking without complaint and offered thoughtful menu recommendations.
