Best Lunch Restaurants in Yarralumla

Lovely food, definitely a place for a special occasion as it’s a bit pricey but overall it was a beautiful experience. The pork belly, spatchcock and salad was delicious. Leave room for dessert too as the tiramisu and hazelnut cream/mouse thing was delicious!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Compa, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance and friendly staff made us feel right at home. The menu is a perfect blend of creativity and tradition, offering dishes that are both comforting and innovative. We started with the wide variety of entrees, which were beautifully presented and bursting with flavour. For the main course, the sirloin on the bone was an absolute showstopper cooked on the rare side, seasoned to perfection, and paired with the most delightful sides. Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, offering excellent recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. To top it all off, the dessert was simply divine. We tried the raspberry semifreddo, and it was the perfect sweet ending to an already amazing meal. If you’re looking for a restaurant that delivers on every level—delicious food, exceptional service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Compa is the place to be. I can’t wait to return!

Excellent food and service as ever. We relished mainly seafood and vegies - the oysters, tuna and watermelon, stracciatella, zucchini flowers, grilled sourdough and berry sorbet all superb. Both of us unable to drink your great wine last night and so we resorted to Grandma's hands, which we gather uses pomegranate based Grenadine.

The service was great and the food was delicious. Definitely worth a visit.

Locale is a firm favourite for pizzas however one thing that bugs me is that the table always seems to end up crowded by the wire pizza racks. When there is also wine glasses, water glasses, side plates and starters also on the table, it all becomes very cluttered and the height of the pizza racks makes everything seem like an obstacle to be worked around. And this was only 2 small starters and 3 pizzas between 4 people on a large round table.
