ondi’s latest restaurant offering, Lola’s Level 1, is a Mediterranean restaurant and bar from Sydney hospitality veteran’s Marco Ambrosino and Manny Spinola, overlooking famous Bondi Beach. Co-owner Ambrosino said “we’re excited to finally open the doors to Lola’s Level 1 in Bondi. Lola’s is all about fun and we’ve assembled one of the best restaurant teams in Sydney that will be able to deliver that. We want Lola’s to be approachable, a place where you can drop in for a drink and some oysters; a place for a dinner with the family; or a long lunch on the balcony overlooking Bondi. The menu is focused on the plancha grill, and we’ll also be serving beautiful oysters shucked at the bar. The bar program is also really special, with an interesting cocktail list, and a wine list that includes interesting producers from Italy, Spain, Portugal and Australia.” Co-owner Manny Spinola said: “Marco and I have been friends for a long time and have always had a deep mutual respect for one another. We believe we have created something quite special with Lola’s Level 1, and look forward to working with the team and seeing diners in enjoying Chef Paula’s food, with a glass of something nice, watching the sun go down over Bondi.” Lola’s Level 1 is open daily, noon to 10pm. lolaslevel1.com @lolaslevel1
