The Menu

Everything is cooked to order at the counter, over live fire wherever we can. Our list changes with the seasons and the market — this is the shape of it.

To Start

Small Plates & Snacks

Crispy Fish-Skin Salad

Golden fried fish skin over cucumber, cherry tomato, pickled shallot and fresh herbs, dressed in a bright green nam-yum vinaigrette. Crunchy, sour and fresh.

Wagyu Skewer over Fire

A single rich skewer of marbled beef grilled over charcoal, glazed as it cooks and served with charred citrus to cut through. Our most popular first bite.

Charred Bread & House Butter

Grilled sourdough with smoked, whipped butter and flaky salt — the way to open any dinner at the counter.

Seasonal Bruschetta

Whatever's ripe at the market, piled on grilled bread with good olive oil. Ask us what's on today.

From the Fire

Steaks & Grilled Meats

Cuts are grilled over charcoal, rested, then finished with sea salt and charred citrus. Choose your cut at the counter — we'll cook it to your liking.

Dry-Aged Ribeye

Deeply marbled and dry-aged for concentrated flavor, grilled over open flame until the crust crackles and the center stays rosy. A showpiece cut, best shared.

New York Striploin

A classic, full-flavored steak with a clean line of fat — charred hard on the outside, tender within.

Grilled Lamb Rack

Herb-marinated rack of lamb cooked over the coals, pink and juicy, with a fragrant, smoky edge.

The Counter Burger

A thick beef patty seared over fire with melted cheese, caramelised onion and pickles on a buttered brioche bun. Our take on the perfect burger.

Catch of the Day in Herb Sauce

Crisp-skinned fresh fish over a vivid green herb sauce with blistered tomatoes and toasted nuts. The market decides the fish; we decide the fire.

Hand-cut pappardelle with slow-cooked ragù, charred tomatoes and shaved cheese

Handmade Pasta

Rolled Fresh Daily

Tagliatelle al Ragù

Slow-cooked beef ragù folded through wide ribbons of hand-cut tagliatelle, finished with aged cheese. Rich, comforting, honest.

Cacio e Pepe

The Roman classic — silky cheese and cracked black pepper emulsified into a glossy sauce. Simple done properly.

Seasonal Vegetable Pasta

Fresh pasta tossed with whatever's best from the garden and market, good olive oil and herbs. Vegetarian and changing weekly.

Garden Salads

Fresh & Local

Garden Leaves & Herbs

Crisp local leaves and soft herbs in a light house vinaigrette — the fresh counterpoint to a night of fire and smoke.

Tomato & Stone Fruit

Ripe tomatoes and seasonal fruit with red onion, mint and a splash of good oil. Sweet, sour and bright.

Crispy Fish-Skin Salad

Our signature — fried fish skin, cucumber, tomato and herbs in a zingy green dressing. Great to share.

Wine & Bar

Chosen for the Fire

A personal, ever-changing cellar. Tell us what you're eating and we'll pour something that fits — no pretense, no upselling.

Red Wine

Old- and New-World reds with the structure to stand beside charred steak, from easy-drinking to something to linger over.

White, Rosé & Sparkling

Crisp, mineral whites, dry rosé and a few bottles of bubbles — lovely with seafood, salads and pasta.

Cocktails & Aperitifs

A short list of classic cocktails and aperitifs to begin the evening, mixed to order across the counter.

Menu items and availability change with the season. Please ask about daily specials and dietary needs.
