    Beautiful restaurant. Food is simply presented but insanely flavourful. Great ambience, friendly and knowledgable team. Restaurant's for me come down to "is it a nice place to sit?" and this is that in spades. <3

    Had the best time at Fontana! I went solo but felt I was with friends the whole time. Amazing customer service by Eddie and Ivy. Great vibes and food was immaculate! Literally every dish was mouth watering! You must try the fresh Ricotta with the garlic bread. Will be back whenever i’m in Sydney again 🤍

    The food and service is exceptional at this hidden away gorgeous restaurant. It's a share plate situation, so four + people is a great number to experience lots of flavours. The service from the front of house to table service was very friendly and very knowledgeable on the menu options. You get a clear breakdown of every dish, along with recommendations, if requested. Cocktail & wine list has a very good variety to kept everyone happy. We went on a Friday night, and the place was full as a goog. Thus, the noise level was a heightened. A great buzz but you need to tune in to your own conversations. 😅 Our first time there & certainly not our last! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    From the food, to the vibe, to the service and the rest, Fontana is just the best. Cannot recommend highly enough. They effortlessly accommodated our large group of 15 people and helped make it a birthday celebration to remember
