From sea to fire, two expressions of the season.

A roasted whole seabream with romesco sauce for those drawn to lighter, coastal flavours.
Or Australian wagyu bavette with seasonal grilled vegetables, prized for its marbling, tenderness, and deep, rich character.

Whichever direction you take, both are served for lunch and dinner from our seasonal menu.

A moment set aside for a well mixed cocktail, small bites, and unhurried conversation before the table is fully laid.
At Terra Moderna, we honour that tradition with cocktails crafted for lingering.
Join us for aperitivo, the Italian way.
