Layers upon layers of slow-cooked Bolognese beef ragù, silky béchamel and pasta sheets freshly made every day. Our lasagna is baked until crispy on top, soft and generous inside. The ultimate Sunday lunch vibes.
Truffle Pasta
Our not-so-small favourite: freshly cooked Mafaldine pasta tossed in a 5kg wheel of Pecorino cheese. Italian truffle and creamy mascarpone, all topped with Parmigiano D.O.P — Made to share with your lover (or have it all for yourself!)

Made with slow-fermented dough, topped with top-quality Italian ingredients sourced from our trusted beloved producers. From big classics to bold twists like our indulgent truffle pizza, our pizzaioli make sure you have it all (crusts included).
Tiramisu
The unbeatable classic, done Gloria’s way. Espresso and Marsala-soaked savoiardi, creamy mascarpone, topped with a generous dusting of cocoa. Thought for the naughty amici and made for rounding up the feast, the Italian way.
Lemon Meringue Pie
Bright, zesty and perfectly balanced. A towering 6-inches of puro piacere, our Incomparable Lemon Pie is not for the faint-hearted, with a quivering tower of meringue and zingy lemon curd base.
