The Story of

Our Restaurant

Sharon and Thiago Menezes moved back to Sharon’s hometown of Nowra in 2020 after running a wine bar on the North Shore of Sydney for seven years. Ponte Bar and Dining is their new adventure…

We Believe

Food Is Important

Food is everything to us.
And that’s why we designed our menu to be shared. We want to encourage our customers to try something new and enjoy the conversations that flow when food is passed around between family and friends.

Customers

Love Us

"My first visit which certainly won’t be my last. Absolutely loved it. Interesting menu and everything met our expectations. Friendly staff, good service, fairly priced and yummy. What more could we want."

"Food was delicious and beautifully presented. The chef here is outstanding. We enjoyed the service given by the young woman looking after our table. She was courteous and friendly and had a genuine warmth which made us feel welcome."

"Always reliably good food and friendly service. Love the special events at Ponte, like the "Archie Roach" Gin tasting night - something we really look forward to. One of the best places for casual dining in the Shoalhaven!"

"We have some wonderful places to eat in our local area, and we now have a new one to add to the list. Exceptional food, excellent team, and special location. These guys have been through a tough year and delivered. Well done."
