Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples.
Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.
We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

Market Bistro will open from 11.30am 7 days a week, offering a classic “bistro style” menu featuring house made pasta, and a great selection of dry aged meats and a bunch of export quality local seafood.
Our wine list will be interesting, constantly evolving and feature predominantly Australian and New Zealand producers.
A unique feature of the Bistro is the fact you can walk into & purchase wine from the Wine Store for retail prices then drink it in the Bistro (for a small corkage fee.)
Market Bistro will be a stylish, casual restaurant that is not stuffy or pretentious... It is professional, casual & truly local.

    Highly recommended place with exceptional service and superb dining experience. I have celebrated different occasions here- birthdays, anniversaries etc with friends and family and I couldn't fault the consistency of service that GZ provides. I love the fact that GZ has special offers all the time such as the cocktail on special or the special price of 2 or 3 courses meal. My recent dining was an enjoyable one. My husband had the wagyu whilst I had the 3-course meal- it is definitely worth every $. We were seated perfectly to overlook the waters so that is a bonus! Until our next dining GZ! Thanks for the stalk of rose 🌹 that your lovely staff handed as we left. It truly made our day.
