About Firma Italian

Spacious, uncrowded dining on Grey Street pairs refined Italian courses with easy, welcoming hospitality. No stiff fine-dining posturing here—tables sit generously apart, leaving ample room to linger over rich octopus spaghetti and crisp panisse. Diners often point to the warmth of the floor staff as the quiet anchor of the room. Dinner wraps up with hazelnut-dusted tiramisu assembled directly tableside.

  • Generous room to breathe: Spaced-out seating offers an intimate, unhurried atmosphere without the cramped buzz of typical upscale dining rooms.
  • Tableside tiramisu theater: The signature dessert for two is composed and layered right before your eyes at the table.

  • Intimate Dining Without Crowded Tables

    The dining floor provides a private and quiet setting where guests can converse without being positioned right next to neighbouring parties.

    The atmosphere and decor is lovely and intimate yet without being close to other tables.

    K Mitchell

  • Warm, Non-Intimidating Hospitality

    Front-of-house staff create an approachable, unpretentious atmosphere that puts diners at ease regardless of formal dining expectations.

    We’re not usually the fine-dining type, but he made us feel completely comfortable and explained everything so beautifully. It really made the whole experience feel special rather than intimidating.

  • Thoughtful Care for Milestone Occasions

    Attentive and accommodating service ensures milestone celebrations and family gatherings unfold smoothly without logistical strain.

    Thank you for making us so welcome and for your personalised service. The way you made such an effort to connect with my teen niece and nephew and shared your own stories and knowledge with all was genuine and uncommon.

  • Theatrical Tableside Tiramisu Preparation

    The signature dessert for two is freshly assembled and prepared in front of patrons right at the table.

    Not to forget the Teramisu, a dessert for two that gets made in front of you at your table - delicious!

    Hamish Wood

  • Interactive Dessert Assembly for Two

    Staff deliver engaging culinary showmanship by preparing dessert directly at the table to complete special shared meals.

    It was really nice to watch the dessert being assembled and the addition of hazelnut definitely elevated the dish.

  • Tiramisu

    when we got the tiramisu, it was just heavenly that we could sit there all day and have it

  • Spaghetti al Polpo

    deliciousness of the Spaghetti al Polpo! Every bite made us want more

    Jean Bean

  • Moreton Bay Bugs

    There were two large pieces of bay bug meat, which were so fresh and sweet. The underneath shellfish bisque was a good inspiration for this dish.

    Ronnie Lui

  • Fritto Misto

    I especially enjoyed the Fritto Misto as I love deep fried seafood, it captured the crunchy texture on the outside but juicy and tender on the inside, and the sauce was a perfect pair.
