Italian food, a stroll from the piers

Hobart's waterfront wraps around Sullivans Cove, from Constitution Dock and Elizabeth Street Pier to Brooke Street Pier and Princes Wharf. Salamanca Place runs along the back of it, and La Mensa is there at number 93.

It is the natural dinner stop after a day on the water: back on the ferry from MONA at Brooke Street Pier, off a harbour cruise, or finishing a walk around the docks. Visitors staying in waterfront hotels can walk over without a car.

Seafood lovers should try the marinara, the gamberi or the seafood platter; everyone else will find pizza, pasta, risotto and Italian mains, all cooked with Tasmanian produce and served with Tasmanian and Italian wines.

La Mensa is an Italian restaurant in Hobart at 93 Salamanca Place, on the historic waterfront.
