Wunderlich Lane
Some of the city's best restaurateurs and hospitality groups are joining forces to deliver a huge new hospitality hotspot.
Overview
Rising from the rubble of the infamous "Murder Mall", perched on the border of Redfern and Waterloo, Surry Hills Village is a sprawling new development that includes hundreds of luxury apartments, a plush boutique hotel The Eve, a plethora of retail outlets and an impressive hospitality offering. Wunderlich Lane is the epicentre of this new dining destination — however, there are plenty of epicurean adventures to be discovered throughout the development.
For example, Liquid & Larder, the hospitality legends behind top CBD establishments Bistecca and The Gidley, have created three new venues for The Eve, which is operated by TFE, the same hotel group as the multi-award-winning The Callie in Brisbane. These include a poolside bar on the roof, a classic hotel lobby cocktail lounge and a refined a la carte restaurant.
The most ambitious venue on Wunderlich Lane is the 200-seat garden restaurant Olympus from the team behind the popular Potts Point Greek The Apollo. Another major draw card comes from the LuMi crew. Regina La Pizzeria is a classic Neapolitan pizza joint helmed by Matteo Ernandes, formerly of Bondi's Da Orazio and Matteo in Double Bay.
House Made Hospitality, who operate Hinchcliff House, are adding two more venues to their portfolio at Wunderlich Lane: Island Radio, a pan-Asian concept showcasing the flavours of Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines and Malaysia, led by chef Andrianto Wirya (ex-Queen Chow and Mr. Wong), and The Baptist Street Rec Club, a cocktail and wine bar with a retro 80s vibe. Japanese chef Raita Noda's second Sydney venue, R by Raita, is another highlight, offering a laidback izakaya experience by day and a more exclusive omakase offering after dark.
Wunderlich Lane venues will begin opening to the public throughout October.
