COUNTRIES DON'T MAKE HOMES, KITCHENS DO.

Da Costa has been named for and inspired by Artfarm co-founder Iwan Wirth’s maternal grandfather, who originated from the small mountainous village of Rivamonte Agordino in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. He emigrated to Switzerland in the early 20th century and opened a restaurant much loved for its simple, honest fare.

A century later, and some 800 miles from that first restaurant, Da Costa continues this glorious culinary adventure on the site of Hauser & Wirth Somerset in Bruton.

LOCALLY SOURCED PRODUCE, IMPORTED ITALIAN INSPIRATION.

The menu is an exploration of traditional northern Italian recipes featuring an array of antipasti, homemade pastas and risottos and daily specials cooked over fire.

Using freshly grown seasonal ingredients from the walled garden and surrounding area, our dishes blend the best of both worlds – quintessential Englishness with Italian culinary flair.
