Leigh Street regulars head straight to Fugazzi when dinner calls for plush booths, late-night energy, and modern Italian swagger. The room runs on pure sprezzatura—dim lighting, stone tables, and a hum that starts at the first pour. Diners zero in on the blue swimmer crab pasta tossed with garlic, chilli, and roe, alongside charred sirloin. To skip the ordering debate, settle into the five-course tasting menu, paced steadily to let the kitchen steer the night. The finish belongs to the tiramisu, scooped table-side onto your plate with cold strawberry sorbet.
- Curated Tasting Menus: Multi-course progressions—including the five-course Cena and Lusso options—streamline dinner with signature pasta, market fish, and steaks.
- Rich Seafood Pastas: Hand-picked blue swimmer crab and prawn-and-leek pastas arrive rich with garlic, chilli, and bursts of salmon roe.
- Tableside Tiramisu: Dessert arrives with flair as rich tiramisu is scooped directly onto your plate table-side, paired with cold strawberry sorbet.
- Private & Group Rooms: A dedicated basement room and a semi-private space centered on a long marble table host milestone dinners and celebrations.

Before you head over
Practical dining advice on seating, tasting menus, and event spaces—reserve your table early for a seamless evening.
Request Booths Over Bar Seating for Comfort
The dining room fills up rapidly and high-top bar seating can feel restrictive during an extended meal. If you require physical support, extra space, or a more intimate date setup, book well ahead and request a booth or corner table.
Pace Your Appetite Around Generous Menus
Curated tasting options like the five-course and Lusso menus feature rich pasta plates and hearty proteins that can be overwhelmingly filling. Consider the Cena menu for balanced pacing, and pace your appetite so you save room for tableside tiramisu.
Reserve Dedicated Spaces for Group Dinners
The main floor can get loud during peak service. For milestone birthdays or parties, reserve the dedicated basement room or the semi-private marble table in advance, confirming any dietary restrictions ahead of time with the events coordinator.
