✠ BOOK PASTA BAR

Mortadeli is an authentic Mediterranean restaurant focusing on European traditions, local seasonal produce, imported Italian DOC ingredients, and fresh homemade pasta. The Pasta Bar offers a seasonally changing menu, highlighting classic Roman pasta dishes, antipasti and cicchetti, as well as house-made gelato and desserts.

Sip on imported and local wines predominantly from Italy or of Italian varietals, a hefty spritz line-up, classic cocktails and an extensive range of amari, grappa and limoncello from local and international producers.

Each afternoon the piazza (located just in front of the original sandwich shop), can be found filled with locals practising the art of aperitivo from 3pm-5pm (an Italian’s happiest hours). It is an experience simply described as the time for a refreshing pre-dinner drink and antipasti snack, a chance to gossip about the day’s adventures and fortify oneself for the evening to come.

With warm and seasoned service, the dining room is intimate and full to the brim with cosy, family vibes of neighbourhood trattorias. Whether you’re passing by for an early dinner with children or embracing the Euro way and extending your evening with old friends, the Pasta Bar welcomes you and promises to fill your belly with wholesome food and lucious drinks.

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land and pay respects to the elders of the past, present and future for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and hope of their people.
