The Teresita Story

Tess has decades of experience running Italian Restaurants.

The Asian dishes on our menu are influenced by the food from her country or origin as well as food from places travelled that left a lasting memory.

Teresita’s has the Coolest & Best Back-Bar on the Peninsula!… we think!

Good Vibes, Food, Drinks & Entertainment

The menu mixes Italian, Vietnamese, and Filipino fare, focusing on fresh market produce. The specials board is constantly changing, and the kitchen staff are always experimenting with new dishes.

Most popular are our seafood spaghetti options and our pizzas are popular; as is our famous Pho on the Peninsula! The menu has something for everyone; yes, we cater to children.

There is an excellent selection of local and international beers, as well as some decent wines. Teresita’s Back-Bar often has live, acoustic music on Fridays and the Week-End. The Back-Bar is available for private functions.

The menu is available for Dine-In or Takeaway and YES, we deliver!

What our customers are saying

My favourite local place. I go to Teresitas religiously once a week for a delicious Pho. My partner tried and loved all the Italian dishes. Overall excellent food, great venue and super friendly staff.

Excellent food, I have tried virtually every dish on the menu and have never had a bad experience. My favourite restaurant in Dromana. The pho is outstanding, particularly the beef pho. The Penne Amatriciana is my favourite dish on the menu. Excellent friendly service as well.

After hearing great reports we tried Terisita’s for ourselves and it did not disappoint! There were 5 of us and we could not fault anything!! Atmosphere was lively and welcoming. Food beautiful and reasonably priced and we tried a number of items on the menu and all were fantastic…pizza, arancini, spring rolls. Well stocked bar and lovely cocktails. And to top it all off, great music delivered by Rod Stewart and his partner!!!  Good selection of songs, lots of singing and dancing. Thanks to Chris and company for your great service. We will be back. Cheers, Ange and Jock.

Definitely worth checking out. Popped in for a quiet drink, great atmosphere so stayed for a bite to eat. Pizza with the lot was one of the best if not the best pizza I have ever had. Spaghetti marinara was good, but pizza was sensational.

Tess and Chris and have done a fabulous job at building this restaurant up to be one of the local’s favourite hot spots of an evening. The beer garden out the back is very popular and regularly features live music from local artists.

Nice atmosphere, food lovely and quick. Singer and choice of music was great. Would definitely recommend you try it out.

– Sally Zetter

Absolutely amazing place, chill vibe, amazing drinks, the bartender there knows what he is talking about when it comes to mixing spirits. We were in town for 3 nights in the area and it was definitely a highlight of our trip.

We didn’t order much food – we mainly went to have a couple of drinks but what we did get was great! 100% recommend if you’re in the area!
