Moonlight Social House

When the moon comes out, so does Moonlight Social House. A treasure at North Narrabeen Beach, romantic Italian suppers just got a whole load better.

Beachy and wistful, Moonlight Social is cooling things down during Sydney's scorching summers with a tranquil and reviving interior that serves as a welcome break from the intense sunshine. Keeping things light and breezy with natural materials like wicker, wood and cotton, consider Moonlight your secret sanctuary. Relax as the crisp, white drapes flutter in the sea wind, causing the hanging ferns to sway gently as you munch happily in the white and beach-wood dining room. If there's anywhere to restore your energy after a long day, Moonlight Social is the place.

There's also nowhere better to enjoy sumptuous Italian suppers that transport you directly to the Mediterranean. Let's start with the hand-stretched pizzas that host aromatic toppings like confit garlic, fior di latte, roasted pumpkin, feta, Spanish onion, pepperoni and BBQ chicken. Thin with each mouthful crispier than the last, these pizzas are delightfully moreish, and light and leave plenty of room for pudding.

Moonlight Social is also diving into Italian mains that put premium cuts of meat front and centre. Marbled sirloin steak is given all the respect it deserves and is seared, smoked and cooked to perfection. As for the snapper fillet with spring vegetables, charcuterie boards and lashings of creamy burrata at every turn, Moonlight Social makes the case for elegant Italian dining - and it comes up top every time.
