Cicchetti

Cicchetti brings an intimate slice of modern Italian-style dining to Alexandra Headland, with a relaxed yet refined mood. Dim and lantern-lit, the room feels moody and cosy, the kind of space that invites conversation, shared plates and easy interaction with the open kitchen and its warm, attentive team. Designed by an award-winning interior studio, it aims to whisk guests to contemporary Italy, or even a corner of Little Italy in New York.

The cooking leans into generous flavours and the pleasure of grazing. Early bites set the tone - patatine al tartufo with a fragrant lift, crisp asparagi impanati, olive allascolana and the sweet heat of honey-glazed fritolle pancia. Heartier plates follow in rustic, comforting fashion - arrosticini bringing tender, 24-hour marinated lamb, and brasato e polenta offering slow-cooked richness and silk-soft comfort. To finish, it’s all about the classics - think tiramisu or a bright burst of frutti di bosco.

Settle into the glow, watch the buzz of the open kitchen and let the evening unfold plate by plate. Make a date, bring good company and follow your appetite - small plates, big amore!
