What Is Arancini, and Why Is Perth Hooked?
From Sicily to Suburbia
These rice balls hail from Sicily, where they’ve been cooked for over a thousand years. The name “arancini” means “little oranges,” thanks to their size and golden hue.
The classic combo? Crunchy coating outside, soft cheesy or saucy centre inside—simple and filling.
A Meal or a Snack? You Decide
You can serve arancini as an entrée or go all in for lunch or dinner. Their richness makes a few go a long way. Add a salad or dipping sauce, and it’s a full meal.
Made for Perth Life
Perthites love easy, shareable food. Arancini fits perfectly into that laid-back lifestyle. From kids’ lunchboxes to wine-night nibbles, they heat up in minutes and vanish even faster.
Why Tommy Sugo’s Arancini Stand Out
Quality You Can Taste
We make arancini like we’re feeding our own family. Real arborio rice. Slow-cooked sauces. No weird stuff—just the good ingredients that let the flavours shine.
Rolled by Hand
Each arancini ball is hand-rolled, never machine-made. It’s how we get the texture just right and the fillings perfectly placed. It takes longer, but it’s worth it.
Flavours Everyone Loves
Here’s a taste of what’s on the menu:
-
Pumpkin & Fetta – Sweet and salty, veggie goodness
-
Bolognese – Beef with rich, slow-cooked tomato sauce
-
Mozzarella – Pure cheesy comfort
-
Spinach & Ricotta – Creamy and satisfying
You choose your favourite—or try them all. They go fast for a reason.

The Perfect Bite: What Makes Arancini Irresistible
Rice Done Right
We use arborio rice, the kind used in risotto. It holds together without turning gluey—just the way it should.
Crunch + Creamy
That golden outer crumb? It’s not just for show. It seals in the warmth and gives that crave-worthy crunch with every bite.
Dip or Not to Dip
Love sauces? Arancini works with all kinds:
-
Classic Napoletana
-
Garlic or truffle mayo
-
Pesto-mayo blends
-
Chilli jam if you like a little kick
