About Pilu at Freshwater
Pilu is one of the Northern Beaches’ great dining gems. Owner Giovanni Pilu put Freshwater on the culinary map in 2004 when he began serving Italian food inspired by his home, Sardinia.
The restaurant masquerades as a beach house on the rolling-green slope next to the beach, giving it one of the most enviable ocean views in Sydney.
The dining room’s beachy feel is a timeless and subtle backdrop to the food and the view, making this a dining experience unique to the Northern Beaches of Sydney. And that’s without mentioning the vast, award-winning wine list, which represents every region of Italy.
Meet the Chef
Giovanni’s philosophy lies at the heart of the restaurant; “Food, and the hospitality associated with sharing it, is integral to the Sardinian way of Life.” Giovanni and the kitchen team take great care in sourcing the best of local, seasonal ingredients and when required, the highest quality products from Italy. The menu is typically Sardinian, re-interpreted using modern techniques whilst remaining true to tradition and regionality.
