Icardi’s
For months, O’Connell Street has been guessing. Burgundy tones through the blinds, cryptic glimpses across social media, and whispers of a venue inspired by Greek mythology. The reveal is finally here, and it comes with a family story and a menu rooted in Euro classics.

Lola’s
It’s not every day you walk into a wine bar and get instantly floored by the fit-out. Up until last month this Norwood address was East End Cellars, but you’d hardly recognise it now. Lola’s opened her doors this October. She’s sexy, feminine, and playful, but the design – with velvet curtains, marble benchtops and more shades of pink than you can count – sets her up as much more than a place for a daytime drink.
