MENUS

Classical Italian

Meaning ‘by the sea’ in Italian, a’Mare sees local seafood take a special place on the menu as homage to its Sydney surrounds and the harbour side location of Crown Sydney. While traditionally Italian in its inspiration, Alessandro promises a uniquely Sydney feel with authentic and memorable tableside service.
