Fabbrica Darlinghurst

Fresh pasta and good wine come together at Fabbrica in Darlinghurst

Fabbrica Darlinghurst is the kind of Italian spot that keeps people coming back, and the menu is a big reason why. Expect Fabbrica favourites like zucchini flowers, cacio e pepe and tiramisu, plus a rotating menu of seasonal snacks and pastas. Darlinghurst also gets its own exclusive: the pork cotoletta, Fabbrica's take on a pub schnitty. Spread across three levels, the neighbourhood pasta bar balances a lively communal dining atmosphere with more intimate spaces, making it just as good for a casual catch-up as a long group dinner.

To drink, the focus is on wines with serious pedigree: superior terroir, organic and biodynamic viticulture and hands-off winemaking, with a spotlight on Italian and Australian-grown Italian varieties. Pair that with a buzzing dining room, communal tables and private spaces, and there's always a reason to pull up a chair. Come for the atmosphere, settle in with good company and let the night unfold. Whether it's a quick dinner or a long catch-up, Fabbrica Darlinghurst is made for lingering, with good wine, great conversation and another round at the table.
