Casa Perth

Mount Hawthorn’s slickest enoteca isn't broadcasting its brilliance—you just have to know. Dim lighting. Buzzing acoustics. A heated al fresco courtyard built for lingering over yuzu spritzes and heavy pours of vino well into the night. The city's culinary crowd points to their $85 Chef’s Menu as an absolute masterclass in flavor pacing. The kitchen flexes hard with a ridiculous smoked mackerel and scallop tostada, while the blistered pizza and rich pasta al forno—specifically that baked pipe rigate—command absolute respect. Don't sleep on the charred roasted cabbage or the pillowy focaccia. Service is razor-sharp yet totally unpretentious. Grab a seat outside, order the apple cruller to finish, and soak up the flawless evening energy.
