Refettorio OzHarvest Sydney

Surry Hills' most vital dining experience. An Australian-first collaboration between OzHarvest and culinary maestro Massimo Bottura’s Food for Soul. Zero-waste ethos meets high-end execution. Sydney’s ethical epicureans are thoroughly obsessed with the 'Pay It Forward' dinners here—a brilliant model where your ticket funds a free, nutritious lunch for vulnerable locals. Masterful cucina povera. Rescued ingredients transformed into vibrant, phenomenal three-course vegetarian feasts. Even devout carnivores leave completely floored by the bold flavor profiles. The space itself? A narrow, warmly lit room—elegant timber, cozy acoustics, zero pretension. Volunteer staff pouring genuine heart into every table interaction. Paired with thoughtful non-alcoholic drinks, it’s a masterclass in sustainable, closed-loop gastronomy that actually feeds the soul.
