Warm marinated olives…bread straight out of the wood fired oven…slow cooked lamb ragu…chicken cacciatora…For the Trequattrini family, food is a consuming passion. Originally from Umbria in central Italy, this foodie family of five moved to Perth with the plan to realise their dream of opening their own restaurant. The result is Three Coins, which is a literal translation of the family’s surname. Offering a truly memorable dining experience, Three Coins serves the most delicious fare in a warm, homestyle atmosphere. It’s regional Italian food as it should be – rustic, flavourful, expertly cooked and totally satisfying…bellissimo!

They say the family that cooks together, stays together. At Three Coins, this certainly holds true. Owners Fabio and Sabrina are joined by daughter Annalisa (manager) and sons Luca and Francesco (chefs). Being a family owned and operated restaurant, there’s a focus on traditional values and a desire to look after every guest as if they were part of the family – it’s the Italian way!

“We want our customers to experience and share in our love for food, which is driven by quality, freshness and home made products,” explains Annalisa.

The menu is compact, carefully considered and changes according to what’s in season. It’s all about quality rather than quantity. Starters include fresh mussels in a garlic and chilli tomato sauce, served with house made ciabatta bread, or San Daniele proscuitto with buffalo mozzarella. All pasta is hand made on the premises daily using free range eggs and semolina flour. The pumpkin and taleggio filled ravioli is tossed with butter, parmesan and sage & finished with a drizzle of white truffle oil…Amazing! Mains are just as impressive, with pistachio encrusted grilled lamb cutlet or slow cooked beef cheeks in red wine gravy vying for your attention.

The eclectic wine list is a good mix of local and imported. It’s been created by Fabio, an experienced sommelier, with the aim of providing guests with interesting choices. There are Italian beers to try and the house wines are from Margaret River.
