That was an unforgettable experience. The tartufo pizza was very pleasant to have. Truffle sauce is wrapped within the special edge. Sausage pork also goes very well with it. The pizza is the best that I ever had in various places.
The manager was giving us a very good recommendation about red wine to go with our food. He is very patient and enthusiastic to introduce various alcohol in each section.
Overall, everything is very impressive. I really like the service from the manager.

I was a disappointed in both the service and my main meal. The rigatoni was pretty tasteless and the sauce was a weird consistency. Service was lacking and my sister and I both left with a similar impression- “it feels like the waiters don’t like us” - not the impression you want to leave your patrons with.
Thankfully the entrees and dessert were redeeming.

An Authentic Italian Restaurant located in Fortitude Valley. Family friendly with a a variety of options on the menu to satisfy fussy eaters. The cocktail and wine selection is excellent. The calamari was fresh and delicious….and the pizzas were out-of-this-world!! The restaurant was alive with chatter and laughter. The service was incredible given the amount of people dining. The atmosphere and decor felt like you were dining in Italy 🇮🇹 The walls were filled with Beautiful black & white old style photos. A wonderful evening! Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting an Italian experience without leaving Brisbane.

Was looking forward to coming here after seeing the great reviews for a while. It fell below expectations but was a very nice restaurant in terms of service, decor and atmosphere. The drinks are well priced and come in variety. The bread was great, you get a whole loaf that's made in house for $9 when other restaurants just give a few pieces. Although the bread was a bit soft, it would taste better if slightly toasted i feel.
As a vegetarian I went for the margharita. Reading on the website that it is cooked for only 30-60 seconds I think this is amazing. The pizza was of a very generous size, potentially even enough for two. It was delicious but fell apart due to the thin crust. Salad was very underwhelming for $10.
The let down of the night was the steak. My partner who eats a lot of steak and has cooked steak for a very long time ( since his young teenage years and makes a bloody good one), said the steak was really ordinary. It looked good but it was very soft and lacking a lot of flavour. Was it that it was sous vide?
With the $50 price mark he was expecting a much better cooked steak with flavour and unfortunately he was very disappointed. The restaurant is beautiful, you can tell the owners must have passion for food and care about their patrons. Hopefully can take this feedback to improve 😊

Friendly staff. Food was of high-quality and plated with great attention to detail. Lovely atmosphere, very picturesque. Great restaurant to go to for special occasions. I highly recommend the Panna cotta for dessert, it melts in the mouth and tastes divine.

Centrally located in Fortitude Valley, this restaurant offers top quality Italian cuisine to its customers. Located in a large older building, the decor is funky and classy. Exceptionally friendly and efficient staff all add to the experience. The food is fantastic, well presented and with a great wine selection, Tartufo is an excellent dining experience.

Service was great from the lady that served our table, unfortunately the pasta was undercooked and had to be sent back and I decided to skip my meal given the wait time. Very overpriced for meals provided and sane with the wine list. I just been living I Sydney for the past 3years so I do appreciate great food. Also the seating because we were new to the place or perhaps the guy who greeted us didn't like the look of us we were place in dining out the front from other guests and the comfort of lounge areas. We didn't get a choice. We were made to wait while other guests walked past. I could understand if they were fully booked but after walking through the venue there was plenty of dining available. I didn't feel welcomed by the guy and perhaps he looked down his nose at me while my guests were with me we did have a giggle thinking surely we are not on stage tonight while we do enjoy fine dining this was not on offer for us. I would had preferred plastic forks and knives from the local Thai restaurant that provides quality food plus services above and beyond. Sad days for Australia 🇦🇺 and perhaps the silver spoon wanna be society we live in. I can say I would not recommend the place or will our business partner ever be going to this venue.
Kind regards, this is just my experience and no hard felt feelings. No one parked my car or had any idea, so on that note. This is exactly why I try before we buy.

What an incredible night!
Big thanks to Tony and all the staff for such a special evening.
We decided to go for the degustation with the matching wines and it did not disappoint.
The experience lasted all night as we were taken through an Italian taste journey with equally delicious wines. The staff were incredibly attentive and created such a beautiful evening for us. We can’t wait to come back!
