The Room

A heritage Art Deco basement beneath The Charles.

Our kitchen serves Italian simplicity with signature pastas, crudo, tableside moments, house-made dessert, cocktails, and a wine list that moves between Italian varietals and Australian expressions.

Friday and Saturday nights bring live music into the room, while private dining and late sessions make King Street feel a little further from the street.
