The top of Red Hill in Canberra is a prime location. Over the years there have been a series of restaurants and cafes, but late last year a new player appeared and not one, but two, restaurants opened in the iconic heritage building perched above Canberra. All in all, Lunetta marks a welcome addition to Canberra dining and finally a return of a fine restaurant to the premium Red Hill location.
Having recently moved to the Southside of Canberra, we were very excited when Lunetta opened its doors atop Red Hill late last year. In fact what opened was both a fine dining restaurant and below it a trattoria, so we were spoiled for choice. We’d last eaten there what seemed a lifetime ago, when it had been On Red restaurant, set up by the chef who previously ran a fabulous kitchen at Grazing at Gundaroo (a restaurant still going strong). This week we finally went to the upstairs restaurant for a special occasion.
