I have only ever ordered the Wellington from Lido Italia but there’s a reason for that. It’s just so good. I’m always tempted to try something else as it all looks great. But the Wellington pizza never disappoints. Lovely staff too
I have been to this place a few times over the last couple of years - for the gelato. I can't comment on the mains but I can comment on how I have enjoyed the gelato. Although the flavours are pretty mainstream, I do love the toasted coconut and hazelnut flavours. Their gelato is smooth and creamy in texture and doesn't leave you with an after taste as some substandard icecream tends to do.
Lido also does a nice, strong coffee and even does a good decaf (if you're that way inclined).
Unfortunately the service I've experienced is a bit hit and miss. This afternoon it was bordering on empty and the staff member demonstrated a less than enthusiastic attitude when I asked if I could get@ served. Then again, there have been other times where I've had a more cheerful reception. I'd be interested to try dinner there.
We had a wonderful meal at this family run restaurant with a friend on Friday night. We shared a delicious starter of seared prawns and polenta, tagliatelle al pesto (with chicken & sun dried tomatoes), Mountjoy pizza and Contadina salad followed by one of the pastries from the cabinet with a scoop of gelato for dessert. The food was delicious and the bill came to $97 for the 3 of us including corkage, which we thought was very good value. It's very popular here so you need to book a table if you come on a Friday and Saturday night, and be prepared to wait for your meals.
great pizzas gets busy after 7.00 pm make sure to book on the weekend
there is a new section now with air conditioning witch is nice in simmer
This place never gets old. All the pizzas are named after the terraces of manly, their pasta dishes are always fresh and lovely, and their gelato is to die for. Nothing I dislike about this restaurant!
Dined here last night for the first time. While the food was delicious the garlic bread was a total let down. The menu said "cob loaf garlic bread". What we were served was an aweful supermarket baguette one (and I mean the exact ones u get at the supermarket in the foil), I can't stand those ones so don't buy them, pretty disappointing to go to an italian place and get served something different, what's worse is they didn't even say sorry we've run out of cob loaf can we get u something else, it was just dumped on our table and the waitress walked away. I'd go here again but never order the garlic bread again. It's just that I love my garlic bread.
Never a bad meal!!! Service top notch. Think authentic pizza and Italian food on a busy sidewalk cafe setting with good sized serves, great on the pocket and fantastic staff and you understand why we go every week if we can. Be warned, make a booking and save some room for gelato!
Great pizzas. Staff are good and run off their feet when busy. Make sure you book. One of the best local eats other than Cafe La Mer.
Love there pizzas. Have always loved their pizzas and keep on going back for more.
Could be, should be. Should be a great local, BYO, out door seating, priced about right, good menu, frendly staff, kitchen stays open. Food just not quite hitting the mark. I want this place to work so I will visit again. Maybe a trip to Italy might help the chef!
Possibly the best pizza I have ever had! The service was so warm and friendly, the food was so fresh, light and absolutely incredible. Prices were excellent too. I will be back many more times.
Fantastic. Great authentic food in a low key BYO setting. The mussels and the antipasto are wonderful, the pizza is light and non greasy.. perfect!
Good affordable pizza and pasta in a casual setting. Also fabulous gelato.
💯 Consistent scrumptious pizza 🍕 , pasta 🍝, seafood 🦐 🦑, 19 gelato flavours, great selection of desserts. Exceptionally friendly staff. Welcoming atmosphere. Love this place 🥰
Love this local place but it's inconsistency can be really frustrating. Food has always tasted great but on busy nights wait times are painful. We had a 6:30pm booking and our breads came out instantly, but our mains didn't come out until 7:50pm. By that time my one year old was incredibly frustrated and dinner experience became stressful. Another table waited a similar time to us and when the they complained at the counter, the service staff did not care and just said "it's a Friday night". Last time we came on a Friday night, the wait time wasn't quite as bad but still quite long. They probably need to reduce the capacity of the restaurant to offer service within a reasonable timeframe and hire some more experienced staff who understand the importance of timely service. There seems to be no urgency to get things done. We will only come during quiet times from now on or drive closer to Brisbane for Italian.
Superb food with authentic Italian flavours. Nice relaxed feel. The pizzas looked amazing so I'll be ordering them for takeaway soon.
Excellent top notch pizza! Toppings are generous and of a great quality. Proper ham and chicken, nothing like the usual rubbish you get from pizza shops, this ones always a hit
