Double as Good
With Albert Daher, from Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers, North King Street Newtown
Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers on north King Street has one clear mission, to make gnocchi the hero of the plate and to keep Newtown joyfully carb loaded. Nestled between neighbours like Mapo Gelato and Bella Brutta at 119 King Street, this cosy venue is part of the growing line-up of restaurants breathing new life into the north end of King.
Overseeing the Newtown location is Sydney general manager Albert Daher, who ensures the service and atmosphere reflect the brand’s signature warmth and quality. Trays of fresh, handcrafted potato gnocchi roll out of the kitchen daily, paired with sauces that balance comfort, flavour and creativity. Whether you are stopping in for a quick meal or dining long into the night, it is the kind of place that instantly feels welcoming.
The menu features a wide range of sauces, with gluten free and vegan options available. The Slow Cooked Lamb Shank Gnocchi is one of the stars, served in a rich Napolitana-style sauce with a whole lamb shank on the bone. The Wild Mushroom and Truffle Sauce brings earthy depth and creamy texture, while the Traditional Beef Bolognese and creamy basil pesto remain
crowd favourites. There is even a lobster and barramundi gnocchi for those looking for something a little more indulgent.
To start, there are crisp arancini, salt and pepper calamari and garlic bread, while desserts include a classic tiramisu and Sicilian-style cannoli. Behind the bar, Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers pours on-tap Aperol Spritz and Limoncello Spritz, alongside Italian wines and local beers, creating a lively yet relaxed dining experience that suits Newtown perfectly.
Whether you are catching up with friends, heading to a gig, or craving a bowl of comfort after a long day, Gnocchi Gnocchi Brothers has become a go-to on North King Street. It is friendly, unpretentious and full of the kind of flavour that keeps people coming back for more.
