About L'Antica Trattoria

L'Antica Trattoria delivers comforting, scratch-made Italian classics with the noisy warmth of a genuine neighborhood spot on Walcott Street. Mt Lawley regulars head here before shows at the Astor Theatre, settling in over oven-fired focaccia, crisp arancini, and pillowy pumpkin gnocchi. The chef runs the kitchen with old-school pride—even willing to spin custom pasta off-menu when requested. The standout move is the seafood marinara, served bubbling under a baked pizza-crust seal alongside a house-made chilli oil that packs real heat.

  • Crust-Sealed Marinara: The kitchen crowns seafood marinara with fresh pizza dough baked directly over the dish.
  • Rear Laneway Parking: Skip street meters with dedicated free customer bays tucked up the rear lane.
  • Astor Theatre Pre-Show Dining: Minutes from the Astor Theatre, serving quick sit-down meals ahead of curtain call.
