About Oster
Inspired by Northern Italian roots, Oster on Bridge Road brings casual, regional osteria-style dining to Richmond. Unfussy local food and wine hosted in a warm neighbourhood eatery await, in rustic surrounds of glowing pendents, a marble bar and exposed brick walls; or take a seat at bifold windows opening streetside and people-watch in this trendy Melbourne suburb. The Chef’s tasting menu delivers traditional concepts steeped in slightly radical ideologies, taking diners a little out of their comfort zone, with offerings of yellowfin tuna crudo, yuzu kosho, roasted buckwheat, kohlrabi and radish. House pasta specialty paccheri and braised beef ragu is a must-try, along with Wagyu striploin, beef jus, mustard, roasted potatoes and greens; for a sweet finish, opt for wattleseed tiramisu.

Best Fusion Italian restaurant in Melbourne
Lovely Italian Fusion Restaurant, amazing selection of Australian Wines made with Italian grapes. Really good lunch deals & stunning chef blind tasting menu for Dinner.
