This modern and elegantly appointed waterfront venue has a spectacular marine panorama of Middle Harbour scenery, sailing boats, pleasure craft and cruisers.

Orso boasts an abundance of natural light through clear floor-to-ceiling glass expanses and is an absolute waterfront venue – it has its own beach, wharf, jetty and deck, and a resident family of photogenic pelicans whom can be seen paddling outside at most times.

In keeping with its origins as a boatshed, guests can arrive by boat and tie up at Orso’s private jetty, or utilize ample car parking on either side of Spit Road.  Rectangular tables allow a flexible number of guests per table who can enjoy intimate conversation whilst not missing out on our spectacular water view overlooking middle harbour. Orso’s design features are muted to better reflect its special waterfront surrounds. A sea of white covered tables, outdoor canvas awnings; black carpet and soft drapes. Orso is fully air-conditioned; with a large private balcony and jetty overlooking the beach and on the water.
