Osteria il Coccia

Proudly showcasing Italian wood-fired dining on the Central Coast.

There is fire, flames, the smell of smokiness coming from the grill. Serving the freshest ingredients, organic when possible, from local farmers and producers.

Osteria il Coccia brings you the best of both Italy and France where owners Nico and Alexandra grew up.

Nico trained in Italy before working in El Bulli, New Zealand, and Sydney – and now luckily for the Central Coast –has chosen to reside on Ettalong Beach. He has previously worked at Otto, Quay, Fratelli & Ormeggio before moving to Bowral where he worked at Biota. Nico and his wife Alexandra received 1 hat at their previous restaurant Bistro Officina in Bowral.

Alexandra is French Italian and is responsible for the eclectic wine list at Osteria il Coccia.

Alexandra is strict when selecting the wines available at the restaurant and her ethos is to showcase regions she loves, share her knowledge and encourage guests to drink something totally different.
