The story
Marta sits on McLachlan Avenue in Rushcutters Bay, one of Sydney's quieter, tree-lined inner-eastern pockets. The name and the osteria format signal something straightforward and honest: Italian cooking without ceremony, in a room that invites you to stay.
The restaurant's recognition by Gambero Rosso — Italy's most authoritative guide to Italian food and wine, here extended to its international editions — places Marta in select company among Sydney's Italian tables. A Gambero Rosso slice is not handed out lightly, and for a neighbourhood osteria in Australia to earn it speaks to a kitchen that takes its reference points seriously.
Beyond that, the details are best discovered in person. Marta is the kind of place where the food does the talking.
