🥳 Celebrate Father’s Day with a special trip to Gertrude Street.
Bring the family together for an Italian lunch or dinner, maybe order him our much-loved 100 Layer Lasagna, made with layer upon layer of homemade pasta, rich bolognese, béchamel, parmesan and mozzarella.
Make Dad feel like Il Capo - “the boss” in Italian - with our signature pizza topped with fior di latte, yellow tomato, prawns, chilli, rocket and semi-dried tomato.
For something from the grill, there’s the Rib Eye Tagliata: 400 grams of grass-fed beef served with fries and Ladro’s signature mushroom jus.
Finish the celebration with our tableside tiramisu.
Father’s Day sitting times:
12:00pm · 2:00pm · 5:30pm · 7:30pm
Father’s Day tables are expected to book quickly, so reserve yours early.
