Nestled in a cozy nook, this lively trattoria pairs modern Italian fare with an impressive wine selection, creating a charmingly intimate dining experience.
"Alberto’s Lounge has a dark, but charming vibe; the music is exceptional, the Italian food is delicious, and the staff are legends." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"There are a lot of great Italian restaurants in Sydney, but Alberto’s Lounge—which works just as well for a quick cocktail as it does for an all-night date—feels unique. Located between two city laneways, the leather banquette seating and close quarters ooze with ‘70s cool, but what really makes this place special is the Australian-influenced Italian menu. Kingfish crudo might come with fermented tomato, rainbow trout gets served up with pippies, and it all goes well with a wine list of local and Italian options. The same people are behind a bunch of other buzzing spots around town: underground French spot Restaurant Hubert, Sydney’s OG speakeasy Shady Pines, basement bar The Baxter Inn, and late-night pizza joint Frankie’s." - Caroline Clements 33
