About Baia Di Vino

Steps from Sandringham beach, Baia Di Vino pairs coastal sunsets with serious Italian cooking and a cellar built for long evenings. Locals rely on it for milestone dinners and casual catch-ups over rotating seasonal plates. The kitchen turns out delicate beetroot ravioli with goat cheese, crisp zucchini flowers, and rich prawn risotto alongside generous shared rib-eyes. Broad bay views through an ocean-facing glass wall anchor the dining room, while plant-based diners get their own dedicated, seasonal menu rather than improvised tweaks. Lunch runs leisurely with tuna carpaccio and chilled wine as afternoon light streams across Beach Road.

  • Bayside Coastal Views: Ocean-facing glass wall framing sunset views across Beach Road and the bay.
  • Dedicated Vegan Menu: A dedicated, rotating plant-based menu alongside handmade pasta and regional wine.
  • Private Dining Room: Dedicated event space suited for intimate milestone birthdays and celebratory gatherings.

Distinctive Advantages of Baia Di Vino

Why diners choose Baia Di Vino for memorable celebrations and elevated Bayside dining

  • Dedicated Private Dining for Group Occasions

    A dedicated private dining space provides an intimate setting tailored for group milestone birthdays, anniversaries, and family celebrations with generous shared menus.

    Our special occasion dinner was made all the more special with the private dining room - which is perfect for groups and families.

  • Dedicated Seasonal Vegetarian & Vegan Menus

    Rather than modifying standard plates, the kitchen crafts a distinct, seasonally changing vegetarian and vegan menu with creative options.

    One of the things I appreciate most is their separate vegetarian and vegan menu, which changes seasonally. The vegan dishes are genuinely thoughtful, creative, and beautifully prepared.

  • Bayside Oceanside Setting & Sunset Views

    Large ocean-facing glass architecture brings open coastal views and natural sunset lighting directly into Beach Road dining.

    Baia Di Vino also offers great oceanside views with a large ocean-facing glass wall, giving it great natural lighting in the day.

  • Exciting Seasonal Italian Dishes & Fresh Pasta

    Handmade pastas, fresh seasonal seafood specials, and rotating menus keep regular diners engaged with consistent culinary execution.

    The food is spectacular and the menu changes a few times a year which always makes it exciting to try new dishes and flavours.

Before you head over

Practical guidance on booking, timing, and menus to get the most from your meal

  • Plan for Two-Hour Sitting Limits

    Standard dinner seatings carry two-hour dining windows, so pace your courses or request a pause before mains if you prefer an unhurried celebration.

  • Ask Directly for the Plant-Based Menu

    The kitchen prepares a dedicated, seasonally refreshed vegan and vegetarian menu, but it may not always be presented automatically upon arrival, so ask your server for it directly.

  • Reserve the Private Room for Celebrations

    For celebratory group dining, reserve the dedicated private dining room in advance to secure sunset views over Beach Road and tailored set menus.
