THE STORY OF CUCINA
The magic starts with our name “Cucina”, meaning “Kitchen” in Italian, a place where we combine our passion, great respect and love for food, and our experience as one.
 
Opened in 2007, Cucina offers a contemporary lifestyle venue that resonates with a hearty Italian flair. Cucina is completed with a stylish bar as well as a cosy terrace for cigar. Italian wines and unique cocktails complement Cucina’s menu. Furthermore, the spectacular views of the Victoria Harbour skyline add a touch of romance to the vibrant character of this exciting dining concept.
