Why you can trust SCMP

Named by founder Umberto Bombana after his favourite Italian film, this outpost of 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana is led by chef Riccardo La Perna, who brings to Galaxy Macau the true taste of Sicily with fresh and authentic flavours.

The 36-seat restaurant greets diners with a mirrored ceiling, brass detailing, gold mirrors and colourful fabrics. The venue also has two private rooms that seat 10 and eight diners.

The menu is seasonal, embodied in the chef’s choice of ingredients sourced from Italian farms. Freshly pressed pasta is made on the premises and the menu’s Mayura beef duo, red tuna and tiramisu are some of the chef’s most popular masterpieces.
