Celebrate san valentino

Celebrate San Valentino at The Restaurant Pendolino with a romantic dining experience set within the quiet elegance of the Strand Arcade - a place to slow down, dine well and enjoy time together.

Lunch
Bottega will operate as normal, while The Restaurant Pendolino opens for Saturday lunch, serving the full à la carte menu.

Dinner
In the evening, Pendolino presents a thoughtfully composed four-course San Valentino menu. The experience unfolds from a curated tasting plate through handmade prawn agnolotti, followed by a choice of river trout or hibachi-grilled Cape Grim beef, finishing with a warm Piedmontese chocolate-hazelnut fondant.
$195 per person.

An elegant way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, centred on thoughtful Italian cooking, exceptional wine and time together.

Please note, Bottega will not operate in the evening, with Valentine’s Day dining offered exclusively on our four-course menu, hosted within The Restaurant Pendolino and on the terrace.
