No Mafia

The Verdict

Perth wine bar No Mafia's modern approach to traditional Italian fare places an emphasis on local produce, taking inspiration from the recipes of Southern Italy. The food is simple but delicious, and bolstered by an impressive wine list featuring Italian and Australian drops, alongside selected cocktails and local and international beers. The atmosphere is relaxed yet sophisticated, with knowledgeable and friendly staff. Grab a cosy booth or sit out the front to people watch, while selecting from a menu that includes market fish with nectarine salsa, walnuts and black polenta; gnocchi with tomato sugo, cavolo nero and mozzarella; and triple cooked potatoes with garlic, chilli and aioli.

The team here have also joined forces with Francoforte and Chicho Gelato to bring you Tre Amici. From Monday through to Thursday every week from 1 July you can kick off the night at No Mafia with a tasty starter and a glass of wine before heading over to Francoforte for a big bowl of pasta and finishing the night at Chicho with some of Perth's finest gelato. All for 35 bucks.
