Book NowAbout Grill Americano
Flinders Lane glamour done with high-octane Italian ambition. The dining room hums beneath high ceilings and deep blue banquettes—slick, energetic, and built for milestone dinners. Solid fuel commands the kitchen, where a Josper grill chars prime scotch fillets beside bubbling bowls of four-cheese mac and razor-thin octopus carpaccio. Regulars point newcomers straight toward the wine list, a hefty compendium navigated smoothly by the floor team. The meal finishes with the house signature: generous spoonfuls of classic tiramisu scooped tableside straight from the tray.
- Tableside tiramisu ritual: Waitstaff portion the house tiramisu directly at the table, spooning generous helpings straight from a wide serving tray.
- Josper grill and wood oven cooking: Prime steaks and coastal seafood hit intense heat over charcoal and wood fire, developing deep crusts while keeping centers tender.
- High-energy occasion dining: Plush blue banquettes, sweeping marble, and warm hospitality create an upscale, celebratory setting without stuffiness.
- Extensive cellar selection: A sprawling international cellar guide supported by on-floor sommeliers offering tailored pairings across courses.
