About us
Villa Romana has sat on the corner of the Esplanade and Aplin Street since ****, owned and run by the same family the whole way through. We're a busy, open-air trattoria looking out over the Coral Sea, cooking homestyle Italian food with good local produce from breakfast until late, seven days a week. Locals just call us "Villa". Plenty of our regulars have been coming in for so long they feel like part of the family, and travellers from all over the world find their way to our tables too. Wine is a big part of who we are, and we're proud of a list that rewards a bit of curiosity.
