I don’t usually do reviews on here. But the pizza is so damn delicious here I had to! Great place!
Pizza might not be the "best in town" but it is certainly up there. The beef cheek is tender and polenta is buttery. Service was very attentive and the staff were never seen without a smile. My only criticism is the affogato, which was evidently sub-par ice cream and very little of it at that.
Great pasta and pizza!!!!!!!! Been coming here for years.Hidden gem located under a motel on Mains Rd Kp, which adds to the appeal for me. Low key, great food and service.
Despite the restaurant's low key appearance, this has to be some of the best Italian food I have tried in Brisbane! So much so, we are still talking about it today. The spinach and feta arancini balls are amazing, as was the chicken and mushroom risotto as my main, really creamy and the flavours were just awesome. My partner likes to try the bolognese in every Italian restaurant we go to and he said last night's fettucini bolognese was the best he's eaten. I've given it a 4 as the service was a bit strange but I think it was our waitress's first day there. Despite that, everything else was excellent. We will be back!
Had a Groupon for this restaurant or probably wouldn't have even known this place existed. The deal is supposed to be three courses, but one of those courses is bread to share. I was hoping for fish to be included in the choices, but sadly it wasn't. So for me it was narrowed down to a couple of choices luckily both turned out to quite good. In particular the eggplant dish, very generous & tasty with rich tomato sauce. My main course was either pasta or pizza so I chose the latter. Pizza was tasty enough, nice crisp base plenty of vegetarian toppings. Service helpful & friendly. My partner commented the meat balls to be pretty bland needed more flavor hence the 3.5 score

Lately, there are lots of changes along the Main Street in Kangaroo Point including new buildings and new restaurants. Spizzico restaurant should be one of them. Although the Southern Cross Motel was at the same location for a long time, it was the first time that I realised this lovely Italian restaurant located at the front part of the motel. Took the Groupon deal to have dinner last night. It was a three course meal with drink. Service was very friendly and hospitable. Our dinner started with the shared garlic focaccia bread in generous portion and we were clever to have half of the serving in order to reserve rooms for the entrees and mains. Entrees of Polpette al Sugo (beef and pork meatballs) in tomatoes sauce & the calamari fritti were above average. The texture of meatballs was tender and so as those calamari. Heroes were the mains of Spaghetti Cacio e pepe & Risotto del giorno. The former reflected the authentic Italian taste with right proportion of cheese mixed with the a dente pasta. Honestly, we both loved the risotto, which delivered very strong aroma from truffle oil, and the mushroom was just perfectly matched with the well cooked rices and cheese. Its taste was superb. Overall, last night's dinner was a decent experience and we definitely will return to try other dishes on the menu. Highly recommended.
Upon the recommendation of a friend, I had the pleasure of dining with my family at Spizzico. I would truly recommend to anyone wishing to experience authentic Italian cuisine to visit this restaurant and to try the wonderful food prepared by their chef Guiseppi. It took me back to my childhood in my grandmothers kitchen. Salute a tutti!
Have always loved this restaurant but not impressed with new management and refurbishment. A lot of staff running around like headless chooks, a Floor supervisor who disappeared for periods, having to ask for our dessert order to be taken. Our waitress was great but she was there with the old management. The food was disappointing - basically all dishes were clearly all mass produced. Rigatoni with lamb was a misnomer. Very hard to find the lamb. The veal was swimming in a lacklustre sauce, the pork belly crackling was so hard you couldn't cut it, served with apple sauce only and pumpkin cubes, risotto got a pass mark. Caramel Panacotta with Banana rum creme was below ordinary. All in all a below par meal for and over the top cost.
Stopped by for a casual dinner and was treated to great service. The food was pretty good, although we underestimated how spicy the Etna pizza would be. Location on a very busy road wasn't too much of a distraction and overall a pleasant evening.
I took my boys here for an early Saturday night dinner and it was a wonderful meal. Great service, good ambiance and fit out, slightly pricey but we absolutely got good value! Would definitely come back again.

I went there for the first time last night and was extremely satisfied when I left.
It's a small but nice looking place, I like the setup they have and it's pretty well decorated.
The service was very good and the food was incredible.
I got the Veal Parmigiana, it was colossal. Comes with a lot of spaghetti underneath, a soccer ball ham on top that which is the size of an soccer ball and some greens on top, plus cherry tomatoes on the side.
I am a bottomless pit so I can manage something like that but people may consider buying it, splitting it all in half and sharing between 2 people, it is an almighty meal.
I also got some gelato, had some chocolate which was white, most likely to make it look different from the hazelnut which was brown, and lemon which was green lol.
I was expecting this bright yellow thing but I kinda like surprises like that every now and then.
I will definitely go here again sometime, especially on a Tuesday or Wednesday when they have an all you can eat pizza and pasta, they have the menu on their Facebook page so you can see what is offered each week as it always changes which is very good.
At the back they have a wood fired pizza area where people can order and take away, they are non stop, it's always busy over there, it's incredible popular and does great business for them.
Mad props to Carmello and everyone working there.
We were invited inside by our waitress shortly after they had opened for evening service. This restaurant is a hidden gem. From the service to the food the meal was great. Our portions were huge, well presented and tasted great. Good value for money

Wooow! Absolutely amazing food. The cheesy garlic bread was almost a meal in itself. Huge portions all round though. Great friendly and fast service and overall atmosphere was nice and cosy. I definitely recommend Spizzico
Two thumbs up!! Fantastic pizza, wonderful service and friendly ambience. I also really appreciated the yummy vegan options. The owners have a beautiful community spirit which shows in their support of the Kangaroo Point blockade. Definitely going again soon!
My husband and I just had the most beautiful meal at Spizzico ! We had a variety of entree’s and a main meal each. Our meal arrived and presentation was beautiful !
The meal was fresh, tasty and we left with a full tummy & feeling extremely satisfied :)
Very friendly service & will definitely be back next time we are in the area.
Highly recommended Spizzico !!
Thank you for a lovely evening:)
Great wood-fired pizza with a delicious pasta menu. The owner/chef has been hit hard by COVID-19 and other circu,stances. Please support them if possible, they do wonderful work for the community.
Has vegan cheese, which is greatly appreciated at such an authentic pizza restaurant.
