WANAKA EVENTS & VENUE HIRE
We love celebrations, and uncomplicated ones!
Sharing is a social activity, very Italian and makes any meal more like a feast and any occasion more family-minded and festive.
Tapping into that easy Italian energy and warm, generous hospitality, we’ve created set sharing menus that include our much-loved dishes and updates on classics.
For 6 to 50 guests, we have crowd-pleasing set menus and prices for both adults and children.
Bookings in advance are essential. We look forward to seeing you around our table soon.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
In winter they have these little garden shed things just fit for two outside. Super cozy and somehow makes the experience extra special. All the staff here are just amazing, super friendly yet also remaining professional at the same time. To follow through with the high standards, every dish we had, was just so good! If you are staying in Wanaka, make sure you dine here at least once.

The potato skin is a MUST order. It’s the BEST and become the highlight of our trip in Wanaka. No other restaurant can beat that. Please order the potato skin and join my cult 😂 another thing that catch me is the wee green house hut(?) Its outside the restaurant but so cute and so private. It’s not cold at all, they provide hotties and heater. Very very highly recommended. Will definitely come back.

A flawless experience. It was really easy to book a table and all the staff were very friendly and professional. I ordered some polenta fries for starters, margarita pizza for my main and the tiramisu for dessert. The fries were crispy and delicious, the pizza had an awesome crust and the tiramisù was smooth and creamy. Overall everything was great.
