Gepetto's Hahndorf

Gepetto's sits on Mount Barker Road in Hahndorf, Australia's oldest surviving German settlement in the Adelaide Hills. An Italian restaurant on the famous main street, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, authentic cooking — the kind of warm, welcoming spot that brings genuine Italian flavours to the charming, historic village.

The appeal is that combination of quality Italian food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, welcoming setting on Hahndorf's lovely main street, ideal for a family dinner, a relaxed meal or a bite while exploring the village. Classic Italian dining done well has broad appeal, and on a busy tourist strip, Gepetto's has clearly won over both locals and the many visitors to Hahndorf.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 900 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant in a busy tourist village fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or visiting Hahndorf at a busy time.
