About ALMA
ALMA is a South American-inspired restaurant on Ryrie Street in central Geelong. The kitchen cooks with Latin spices, herbs and techniques, using local and sustainably produced ingredients where it can. The restaurant has two function spaces. Packages are hosted in the upstairs dining room, a cosy, private-feeling area above the main restaurant with exposed brick, timber floors and room for long tables. Groups of 10 to 50 can book the chef's selection, three courses of savoury share plates covering starters, a middle course and mains. A four-course version adds an individual dessert. For a larger occasion, the whole restaurant can be hired on a minimum spend. Functions here are seated only, built around the shared menu, as the restaurant does not run stand-up cocktail events. ALMA also hosts intimate weddings for up to 50 guests, with the team helping on menus and styling. Corporate dinners and social gatherings are booked through the same functions team. You can bring your own celebration cake with no extra fee, and decorations are fine once checked with staff, though confetti is not allowed. There is no AV on site, and the upstairs room is reached by stairs only.
