Book NowAbout Italian Street Kitchen Penrith
Handmade pasta and blistered crusts make this Penrith outpost a reliable go-to for hearty Italian plates. Tucked into the Panthers precinct, the room hums with energy as chefs fire cheese bread and crisp Diavola pizzas in the wood-burning oven, in full view of the open kitchen. Regulars lean into plates of slow-simmered lamb ragu casarecce, creamy burrata, and tender eggplant ravioli, paired with shaken lemon drop cocktails or carafes of local red. Whether settling in for a shared family banquet or an evening of antipasti and house arancini, dinner closes neatly over a classic tiramisu.
- Open-Kitchen Action: Diners can watch chefs stretch pizza dough and finish pasta courses directly from the open layout.
- Wood-Fired Specialties: Crisp crusts, Diavola rounds, and warm cheese bread bake directly inside the dedicated wood-burning oven.
- Banquet Menus for Groups: Structured multi-course banquet menus easily accommodate large celebrations and parties of twelve or more.
