Such a great vibe there and the staff are absolutely great and wonderful

Wonderful early dinner with an old friend, pasta and veal were our highlights. Service very good.

Tucked beneath the bustling streets of the Sydney CBD, Neptune's Grotto is the latest venture from the powerhouse hospitality group behind some of the city’s most beloved dining spots—Clam Bar and Pellegrino 2000—and it’s nothing short of spectacular. An underground Italian eatery with an effortlessly cool, intimate vibe, this new arrival is a masterclass in creating a dining experience that feels both exclusive and utterly inviting. Step inside, and you’re immediately wrapped in warmth. The dim glow of low lighting and plush banquettes invite you to settle in, and the hum of conversation feels like a secret well-kept. It’s the perfect antidote to the city’s relentless energy—a sanctuary where the only thing louder than the ambience is the symphony of flavours on your plate. Neptune's Grotto is more than just a meal; it’s an experience. A place to escape, indulge, and revel in the magic of beautifully crafted Italian food. It’s a must-visit.

Walked 2 hours to get there, would've walked 3 hours if I had to.

They were open Monday night & were totally accommodating when I had to change the booking time at the last last minute. Great food, great service & the Dolci Share Plate was magnificent. Have eaten there several times - never disappointed & highly recommend.
