La Madonna - a Good Food Guide listed day to night dining and drinking enclave dedicated to spontaneous menus, a celebration of local produce and the spirit of sustainability. Acclaimed Melbourne chef, Paul Turner playfully riffs on cuisines and technique all delivered with a creative, relaxed finesse.

Enjoy menu highlights such as Wagyu bresaola with romesco, pickled zuchinni and togarashi, pan-fried gnocchi with kimchi, broccoli and fresh curds and a signature dry aged duck dish…. with a barrel aged cocktail or wine at hand.

Or perhaps wind down after a busy day at La Madonna Bar. With plenty of comfortable couches and dimly lit corners to enjoy a cocktail, or two and a selection of snacks. Sink into a seat surrounded by wooden barrels and glass bottles ageing various cocktails, tinctures and spirits.

    Absolutely fantastic dining experience at La Madonna! The crispy duck was the star of the evening – perfectly cooked and an easy 10/10. We tried four dishes in total, and every single one was delicious and well-presented. The food is definitely worth the value, and you can tell great care goes into each dish. The service is amazing also! Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality and flavor!

    La Madonna is an excellent restaurant and we have been there many times. Decided to try the Pre-Theatre offer for $50, included wine was lovely, the taste and quality of the food was outstanding however the portion size was a snack, entrees and main would fit on a bread and butter plate. We had to get a burger when we left. The other very strange thing was that everyone on the table had to order the same choice and then a serve of each dish comes out for the table to share, it didn’t work for me. I’d prefer to pay more and get a bigger serve or veggies or something, I had to buy a burger anyway. Or market the offer as a pre-dinner snack or taster.
