this is your sign to stop over-ordering and get the classic 🍕

The dangerous part about eating here…
you start with one dish and suddenly it’s a full spread. 😳
Handcrafted cocktails, shareable appetizers, fresh pastas, wood-fired pizzas, and desserts you didn’t plan on ordering… but absolutely will.

There’s something about starting the day with a real meal — not a snack pretending to be lunch. 🙂↔️
INI’s Miso Picanha Steak brings it all: perfectly seared picanha topped with a runny fried egg, marble potatoes, broccolini, rich sunflower miso, and bright caper chimichurri. Savory, balanced, and actually satisfying.
Lunch menu only — so if you’re prioritizing protein, this is your move. See you at lunch! 🕛

You’re not actually done until this hits the table. Our Sticky Toffee Pudding at INI Ristorante is warm, rich, and soaked in buttery toffee sauce. Topped with silky whipped ganache and a scoop of vanilla ice cream that melts straight into every bite.
Soft. Caramelized. Cold + warm in the best way. Part of our fall/winter lineup — and easily the one you’ll be thinking about after you leave.
Pull up before the season changes. 🍂

Silky miso caramel custard layered with bright yuzu strawberry, finished with a delicate milk crumble and crisp sesame tuille. Balanced, comforting, and quietly indulgent. Part of our fall–winter menu — join us and experience the season at INI.
