Villa Caruso: Modern Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar in Surry Hills
The Soul of Southern Italy,
Hidden in Surry Hills.
Hand-rolled pasta, wood-fired mastery, and a curated cellar. Experience Sydney’s 5.0-star Italian escape on Verona Lane.
Born in Italy.
Raised in Surry Hills.
Villa Caruso began with a singular obsession: bringing the slow, rhythmic soul of Southern Italy to Sydney. We believe in the luxury of time.
You’ll taste it in our 12-hour slow-cooked ragù and feel it in our hand-rolled pasta, prepared fresh every morning. Tucked away in Verona Lane, we offer more than a menu—we offer a sanctuary for those who appreciate wood-fired tradition and the perfect pour of Barolo.
Pappardelle al Ragù
12-hour slow-cooked beef ragù, parmigiano reggiano. The definition of patience.
Find Us on Verona Lane
From Chianti
to the Coast.
Our cellar is a curated journey through Italy’s premier vineyards. From bold Barolo DOCG to our signature Limoncello Spritz, every selection is chosen to complement the smoke of our wood-fire and the richness of our pasta.
Curated Selection
The Dolce
Finish.
Extend the evening with our signature Tiramisù—a slow-layered ritual of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and whipped mascarpone. Paired with a chilled Amaro or an Espresso Martini, it is the only way to end a night on Verona Lane.
