About Chester White Cured Diner

Snug counter stools, cured meats sliced to order, and pasta spun tableside inside a cheese wheel—Chester White runs on relaxed Potts Point diner warmth without the fuss. Regulars claim the veranda perches for cold martinis and wines by the glass, though the move is handing dinner to the floor crew for the Feed Me lineup. It lands you braised beef cheek and truffle cacio e pepe cut with spoonfuls of house chilli.

  • Tableside cheese-wheel pasta: Fresh pasta spun in a cheese wheel right at the table, finished with the kitchen's signature chilli paste.
  • Cured cuts and slow-braised plates: House charcuterie platters, pillowy gnocchi, and tender braised beef cheek headline a focused diner menu.
  • Curated 'Feed Me' dining: A multi-course spread selected by the team to remove dish indecision for date nights and celebrations.
  • Veranda pours and counter seats: Attentive hosts pouring niche wines by the glass and chilled martinis across counter stools and veranda perches.

  • Signature House Chilli Condiment Pairing

    Rich, creamy Roman pasta dishes are elevated by the diner's distinctive house condiment, cutting through decadent pecorino and butter with balanced, vibrant heat.

    Put the chilli on it, it takes the pasta to the next level.

  • Effortless Group Feasting with 'Feed Me' Selection

    Handing over ordering decisions to the kitchen through the multi-course 'Feed Me' menu strips away decision fatigue, delivering a generous progression of house hits across the entire table.

    We basically ate the whole menu without the stress of choosing, and every single bite was spectacular.

Beyond the menu

  • Tableside Cheese Wheel Pasta Prep

    Pasta dishes like the truffle cacio e pepe are tossed and finished directly inside a hollowed pecorino cheese wheel right in view of seated guests.

  • House-Made Chilli Condiment Pairing

    Servers offer a signature house-made chilli condiment to pair alongside rich Roman pasta dishes, allowing guests to balance each plate to their heat preference.

  • Curated 'Feed Me' Menu Curation

    Guests can hand over the ordering entirely with the multi-course 'Feed Me' menu, letting the team curate and pace dishes across the diner counter.

Before you head over

Practical planning advice covering seating, pairings, and arrival logistics. Book your table ahead to secure a cozy counter or veranda spot.

  • Book Ahead for Evening and Weekend Tables

    Because the dining room operates in a compact, intimate footprint, seats fill up quickly during peak dinner services and weekends. While staff accommodate walk-ins whenever possible, securing an advance reservation is strongly advised to guarantee your spot.

  • Pair the House Chilli with Wheel-Spun Pasta

    When ordering the truffle cacio e pepe prepared directly in the pecorino wheel, ask for the signature house-made chilli. The condiment brings mild, well-calibrated heat that balances the richness of the cheese.

  • Plan for Potts Point Parking Constraints

    Street parking around Potts Point is notoriously tight and difficult to find. Allow extra travel time if driving, or opt for public transit and rideshares to ensure you arrive unhurried for your sitting.
