Built in 1894, the original beauty of our building has been lovingly restored to showcase the historic bluestone walls of the Alexandra Room.
A smaller, more intimate space located between Willmott’s and the ORSO Main Dining Room, ‘The Alex Room’ provides both a sense of intimacy as well as a front-row-seat to the bustling atmosphere of our state-of-the-art open kitchen.
The Alexandra Room can fit up to 26 guests and is used by Willmott’s customers during the day and can be booked by ORSO customers at night.
ORSO KITCHEN Bar
Within the ORSO Main Dining Room, the ORSO Kitchen Bar offers a unique full view of our open kitchen and masterful chefs at work.
