Cipri Italian

Best Known For

La Fiorentina per due - 1kg Hawkesbury T-bone, polenta chips, rocket, parmesan and mushrooms to share between two.

Hailing from a long line of restaurateurs, the Cipri brothers are no strangers to the culinary world and they greet even first time patrons of their Paddington restaurant like long lost family. Simple, elegant lines and deep chocolate tones give Cipri Italian its modern aesthetic, but family and tradition lie at its heart; bottles of homemade artisan products are offered for purchase and the Cipris' mother, Maria, makes regular cameos in the kitchen – as well as in old family snapshots that grace the menus. This marriage of traditional and contemporary is a joyous one, reflected in homely yet sophisticated dishes like slow roasted suckling pig, red cabbage salad, mustard fruits and pistachio, as well as decadent desserts like limoncello pannacotta, spiced rhubarb and pistachio meringue.
