About Ioesco

Sanctuary Cove tables fill fast for comforting Mediterranean plates, polished waterfront hospitality, and zero group-dining friction. Long dinners here move easily between plates of carpaccio, garlic butter prawns, and slow-cooked beef cheek that pulls apart on the fork. Large bookings sidestep the usual set-menu rigidity—the kitchen readily pivots to full à la carte ordering for diners with dietary restrictions. Locals lean on the bar for cocktails alongside bowls of fettuccine boscaiola, or box up pasta orders for easy takeout nights.

  • Flexible group dining: Guests facing allergy limits during group set meals are invited to order freely from the full à la carte menu.
  • Signature comfort dishes: Tender, slow-braised beef cheek and plates of fettuccine boscaiola anchor both lively dining room meals and takeaway orders.

Before you head over

Practical advice on dietary accommodations, menu customizations, and takeaway options.

  • Call Ahead for Allergy Substitutions

    If someone in your party has food allergies during a group set menu, call ahead. The kitchen allows guests with dietary requirements to order freely from the full à la carte menu.

  • Clarify Seafood Prep and Spice Levels

    Be aware that adding tiger prawns to pasta dishes can include an unlisted chili marinade that makes the dish notably spicy. Ask your server about seasoning if you are sensitive to heat.

  • Order Takeaway for Convenient Home Dining

    If dining in Sanctuary Cove doesn't suit your schedule, you can order takeaway pasta dishes directly from the restaurant to enjoy at home.
