Themis Chryssidis to open new restaurant in Adelaide’s CBD

·

Two of Adelaide’s leading restaurateurs are set to introduce an authentic Italian dining experience to the city, marking a significant transformation of their CBD offering.

According to The Advertiser, Themis Chryssidis and Callum Hann announced that their modern Australian venue, Eleven, which opened in 2021, will close for a month of renovations.

The Waymouth Street eatery will reopen in late August as Roma, a contemporary Italian restaurant that will feature Roman classics along with traditional dishes with a twist. The revamped outdoor bar and café area will transform into an Italian-style ‘piazza,’ offering pastries, coffee, and aperitivo hour for guests.

Additionally, the duo will launch a lunch-focused deli in the Arbor Lane laneway. This deli will serve grab-and-go items such as Roman-style pizza, fresh salads, cheese, charcuterie, pastries, and quality coffee, all designed to be enjoyed in the nearby piazza.

Chryssidis explained that the new venue aims to bring an authentic “Italian vibe” to the city.

“Cal and I both love Rome. We love the sense of community, the history but also the food,” he said.

He emphasised that the restaurant would be a completely new venue with a “light and bright” design, offering pasta, seafood, and meat dishes bursting with flavor.

“We’re about bringing people together, and that’s the best thing about Italian cuisine,” he added.

Chryssidis said the changes were necessary to take advantage of the completion of the nearby $200m Marriott Hotel – which is slated to open this month – and adjust to Adelaide’s changing dining scene.
