Capriccio Osteria

Bring your wedding reception, milestone birthday or company celebration to Capriccio Osteria in Leichhardt. We combine private dining and larger functions with handmade pasta, wood-fired pizza and the warmth of southern Italian hospitality. Our events team can help coordinate your menu, drinks and service style for corporate lunches, christenings, anniversaries, Christmas parties and family gatherings.

Choose from four individual event areas, or book the full venue as a separate hire option. Our Bar Area accommodates up to 35 seated or 45 standing guests. Upper Level Dining welcomes up to 50 seated or 70 for cocktails, while the Outdoor Courtyard hosts up to 30 seated or 60 standing. The Private Dining Room can accommodate up to 90 seated or 140 standing guests. For a full-venue celebration, we offer up to 200 seated or 350 standing guests. These whole-venue figures are stated separately and are not a sum of the individual room capacities.

Our kitchen, led by Head Chef Nicole Bampton, creates seasonal dishes designed for sharing in true osteria style. You can discuss a shared dining menu or a street-food format with our team, alongside drinks packages to complement your occasion. Please let us know about allergies and dietary requirements when planning your booking so we can discuss suitable options.

Founded by Michele Rispoli, our restaurant draws on the food and hospitality of Italy's Amalfi Coast. Whether you want an intimate private dinner or a larger cocktail reception, tell us about your guest list, timing and preferred atmosphere. We will help you choose an appropriate area and confirm the arrangements for your event.
