About Bellucci Cucina

Perched on the Australia Square podium, Bellucci Cucina channels vibrant Italian dining directly into the Sydney CBD breeze. The draw here is easy social momentum—groups gathering over generous plates and wood-fired crusts straight from the hearth. Tables lean into warm, daily-baked firebread paired with burrata, followed by rich plates of gin basil rigatoni and spanner crab linguine. Between shaken cocktails and multi-course bottomless lunches, it serves as an open-air retreat built around wine, pasta, and layered tiramisu.

  • Podium Alfresco Dining: Diners gather on the elevated open-air Australia Square podium terrace for group dinners and sunny arvo drinks.
  • Hearth-Baked Firebread & Pizza: Dough baked daily produces hot, blistered wood-fired pizzas and smoky firebread paired with creamy burrata.
  • Bottomless Group Packages: Two-hour weekend pours and celebratory feasts pair flowing drinks with antipasti and rich signature pastas.

Why Dine at Bellucci Cucina

Why diners choose Bellucci Cucina for gatherings, signature wood-fired dishes, and alfresco CBD drinks

  • Fresh Daily Wood-Fired Bread & Pizza

    House wood-fired firebread and pizzas are baked fresh daily, yielding smoky crusts and ideal pairings with creamy burrata.

    We started with the woodfired bread and burrata, and it was hands down our favourite dish! So fresh, creamy and full of flavour.

  • Handcrafted Signature Pastas

    Specialty seafood and rich slow-cooked pastas like spanner crab linguine and gin rigatoni showcase bold Italian flavors.

    Spanner Crab linguine and wondered if it came in the shell, pleasingly it had no shell and was so full of flavour, truly is the best seafood style pasta I have ever had.

  • Bottomless Dining Packages for Groups

    A dedicated two-hour bottomless beverage pour paired with multi-course dining makes group celebrations seamless and festive.

    A bottomless experience that’s definitely worth it: we had a copious amount of food, drinks flowing continuously throughout the 2hrs

  • Attentive Group & Event Hospitality

    Warm hospitality, prompt service, and thoughtful touches like proactive drink refills create a welcoming, celebratory group atmosphere.

    Our water glasses were constantly being refilled without us even having to ask, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel really looked after.

  • Open-Air CBD Podium Terrace

    Located on an upper podium overlooking Australia Square, the open-air alfresco terrace catches warm breezes in the heart of the city.

    Sitting outside with the warm breeze, a Di Litchi in hand and pizzas coming out fresh from the oven… honestly the perfect way to ease into the weekend.

    Bellucci is hands down my favourite restaurant in town and always my go-to spot to kick off a great night out.

Before you head over

Practical advice on seating, packages, and arrival for your visit

  • Check the Weather for Alfresco Dining

    Seating is predominantly outdoors on the upper podium terrace, so plan around the forecast or arrive early before peak dinner hours if you prefer sheltered placement.

  • Confirm Bottomless Package Details

    If booking the 2-hour bottomless pour, confirm inclusions and course counts with staff ahead of time, as online descriptions and printed menus can differ.

  • Dietary Requests and Transit Access

    The kitchen accommodates dietary requirements and pasteurised cheese checks upon request, while Australia Square parking and Wynyard Station are both within minutes.
