The Lowdown · AI digest
How we read reviews →Underground CBD wine bar serving handmade pasta in a candlelit den beneath the State Library.
Moody, candlelit underground den with gingham tables and stone walls. reviewers repeatedly call it cosy, intimate and 'immaculate vibes', good for a romantic date or an animated group dinner.
Underground heritage setting beneath the State Library, daily happy hour (4-6pm) with $15 litre beers and discounted Aperol Spritz, heated outdoor courtyard, complimentary birthday apéritifs.
Reviewers describe the pasta and antipasti as authentically Italian-inspired, while some note a broader modern-European menu, such as anchovies on sourdough and mussels in nduja cream.
Not cheap, and reviewers flag small portions on pricier plates like the puttanesca and burrata, but most feel the cooking and cosy setting justify it; happy hour is called explicitly good value.
