Enjoy pizzas at Si Paradiso in Mount Lawley outside in their Italianate amphitheatre with a vino, soaking up the sunshine. Their pizzas have a 50/50 Roman and Napoli vibe, representing the best of both worlds. A longer ferment (96 hours!) makes their bases super light on the stomach with a crisp base and crunch on the pillowy crust, but you can still pick a slice up if you are standing.

Live la dolce vita in Perth with a visit to Si Paradiso in Highgate. With its vibrant, retro interior – comprised of Mediterranean tiles, an abundance of plant life and big umbrellas – it brings a slice of the Amalfi Coast to Perth. “Wine bar, restaurant, cocktail bar, nightclub and event space – this venue can do it all.

Highgate’s party paradise has well and truly matured into one of Perth’s must-visit destinations – and its menu manages to put up some pretty stiff competition with the pumping dance floor. Don’t worry, you can still get your mitts on those Neapolitan-style pizzas, but you’ll also find it hard to resist the next-level share plates. Showing more than a nod to our enviable coast, you can expect to find plenty of seafood, alongside an enticing dash of Asian and Middle Eastern influence – with dishes like charcoal lamb skewers with chermoula, toum and lemon, charcoal fish skewers with aqua pazza, cherry tomato and olives, crespelle topped with blue swimmer crab, brown butter and horseradish cream or scallop crudo with chilli and kumquat.

Seven years in, Si Paradiso’s raucous combination of bar, restaurant, dance club, garden party and outdoor amphitheatre is still holding fast as one of the most giddily fun places to eat and drink in Perth. In warmer months, there’s barely anywhere better to grab a frothy, amaro- and fruit-based cocktail than the magical courtyard, and it’s hard to think of a better first date spot than the parquet-floored dining room—its globe lighting, terrazzo tabletops and pops of greenery make it look like a 1960s Italian speakeasy (if such a thing had existed). In recent years, the food has become more of a focus, and there are some seriously good things coming out of the kitchen.

Located on eclectic Beaufort Street, the enigmatic Si Paradiso defies labels given how it dishes out food as good as its beats. Some of the best local DJs can be found at its Amalfi coast-inspired courtyard on the weekends, playing everything from Balearic beats and amapiano to soulful house and oz-wave. In the basement space, Perth’s best tastemakers from the music scene curate special nights of underground bass, rap, techno and more, with the party going until 1am.

The Mediterranean spot Si Paradiso is another international bar in Perth that’s perfect for all occasions. Along with its diverse food menu, which includes octopus, lamb, and squid ink spaghetti, the drinks menu is full of fancy and creative cocktails, wines and beers. The indoor amphitheatre plays host to a range of film screenings and live performances, and if live acts aren’t your cup of tea, there’s a basement nightclub which parties on until the early morning.

Highgate’s slice of retro-Italy serves some of the best-woodfired pizzas in Perth, but that’s not all this gem has going for it. Si Paradiso has a front lobby restaurant/bar that’s perfect for sips and catch-ups over delicious Italian snacks and sharing plates, but it’s the impressive outdoor amphitheatre where the magic happens. There’s a sense of privacy and excitement when you step inside this space, especially if you catch a sunset party or a Sunday session.

The coolest kid on the Beaufort Street block, Si Paradiso is an all-day and all-night bar, restaurant and dance floor. From many Saturdays spent at Si, I can confirm that the Italian discotheque is always a good time, but we’re here to talk about the restaurant part of Paradiso. There are all sorts of Italian-leaning snacks on the ever-evolving menu, plus oysters ($2 on Sundays!), al dente pastas, and pizzas that stack up to what you'll find in Rome.

Not just a club, Si Paradiso in Highgate is the ultimate chill spot in Perth, mixing delish Italian eats with the coolest music vibes around. Whether you’re craving some top-notch pizza or just wanna soak up some tunes in the courtyard, this place has got you covered from Wednesday to Sunday. With a vibe that’s both retro and fresh, it’s perfect for uni students looking to unwind or kick off their weekend in style.

Open Wednesday-Sunday, 5pm-10pm.

The arrival of chef Paul Bentley at Si Paradiso has elevated the Beaufort Street bar’s Italianate small plate to the same level as its renowned pizzas and good-time wine list. Another newcomer to watch is Mummucc, the small bar spin-off of Wembley’s glorious neighbourhood pizzeria Monsterella; still some of the finest pizza in the west, still ridiculously busy.

Technically not in Mount Lawley, but just a few steps further, the vintage Italian setting of Si Paradiso makes for the ultimate date night backdrop — and their pizza is seriously tasty. Chow down on the drool-worthy wood-fired slices among live music, greenery, and plenty of refreshing beverages, then hang around later on the weekend to dance the night away.

The Si Paradiso cooks have been banging out exemplary pies for years with all the crust and charred action you’ll ever need. The dining room has a distressed, knockabout style reminiscent of the pizza joints we love in the back streets of Italy. It’s a full service restaurant with pastas and antipasti and the like, but the pizzas are a reason to visit.

Lastly, Si Paradiso, one of the wine bars in Perth that serves the most delicious glasses of vino. Once you visit this place you will find yourself grabbing a whole bottle of wine after some time. Share your bottle with your friends and spend an amazing evening with lip smacking foods and the best collection of wine in Perth.

Evoking vintage Italian fun and decadence in equal measure, this place has you covered if you’re up for drinks, music, dancing and pizza. There are multiple spaces catering to cocktails, music, eats and events, and decorative touches like terrazzo floors and lush outdoor plants bring the party vibe front and centre.

Pouring Perth’s most exquisite vino, Si Paradiso is a paradise to relax and enjoy. Once you walk inside, be ready to be amazed by their indoor and outdoor seating areas. A safe haven for small groups, here you will find a small menu with interesting dishes that go well with each drop of your wine.

Si Paradiso serves up at least 10 variations at any one time with both tomato and white bases covered. The outdoor space might be one of the best in Perth as well, so works great on a sunny day to enjoy some fine pizza – we recommend the Pomodoro with the succulent green tomato and basil oil.

Intimate and charming, Si Paradiso has an old skool feel and a killer cocktail list, great food and even a dance floor – if you decide to make a night of it. The menu features plenty of favourites, given a wee tweak of modernity. And lots of plates are perfect for sharing too.

Lastly, Si Paradiso in Highgate provides a retro Italian experience with wood-fired pizzas, a variety of Italian snacks, shared plates, and exquisite gnocchi in a burnt butter sauce. The city's Italian scene indeed caters to every palate.
