Amazing food! We had 3 courses and all the meals we had were delicious. The staff were prompt and helpful. Only issue was where we were seated, it was almost directly under a screen that was being used by staff to log orders we ended up having to move the table down further so that we didn't feel like staff were on top of us. Definitely a great place for an awesome meal :-)
Amazing food, amazing service!! We went to Salotto for lunch for Mother's Day yesterday and had such a great experience! Staff were very accommodating and friendly! Food was delicious, especially the parmigiana and veal saltimbocca! We all cleaned our plates! Highly recommend!
My sons christening was held at Salotto and it was fantastic. So much delicious food, and the staff were very attentive. Pascoe and his staff decorated the venue the night before for me so i didnt have to worry about it in the morning. I would totally recommend Salotto. It's also very baby friendly which is a huge plus for me!

We had the best meal and quick - had a show in Civic to go to so told the waiter, we were in and out within the hours. Recommended the Chicken Parmigiana 10/10.
Attentive staff, and interesting menu that goes beyond the usual Italian fare, and the food was good. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the opportunity to sit in the corner and people watch while having dinner for one!
The food and atmosphere was great, we had such a lovely afternoon celebrating my birthday. The staff were really helpful in organising a large group, we really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Amazing food and staff! Atmosphere is quite traditional of a great little Italian restaurant..... we loved it!
These guys make the best Potato and Sweet Potato fries. Really friendly atmosphere and staff.
Fantastic food and always great service with all the staff making children welcome also...
Do yourself a favor and eat at Canberra's best Italian restaurant
Does anyone remember a time when focaccia was the height of sophistication and restaurants serving huge portions of comforting pasta were the place to be? Let’s call it ‘the early 2000s’. This young foodie had just moved to the big smoke of Canberra and, back then, if you wanted delicious Italian with all the swank of Kingston, you headed to Santa Lucia.
I came here for a mid week dinner and I was thoroughly impressed. I had the pasta for entree and pizza for main. Both dishes were cooked well and had plenty of flavour. The service was very friendly and attentive. There is a huge bar inside and descent amount of drinks on the menu to choose from. The food menu is generous and there are plenty of dishes on offer. Definitely worth a try.
The absolute best value lunch offer in town must be at Santa Lucia @ Salatto, newly arrived to Kennedy Street Kingston. $9.90 will buy you a large glass of wine (beer or soft drink), some crusty fresh bread, and a chicken salad, pasta, risotto, pizza, canneloni, veal parmigana or focaccia. It was so amazing I just had to see if it was true!

Wow! Rarely does a restaurant surprise you for entree, main and dessert. Italian food cooked without cutting corners, then each dish has a modern twist... Sent my taste buds into overload.
Salotto is amazing. The food is perfection. Had zucchini balls which were amazing. Had the polenta chips (didn't think I'd like but I LOVED) Had Gnocchi (perfection) All in all one of the best feeds I've ever had.

I’ve been keen to try Salotto in Kingston since it opened last month, so when my friend came back from a long overseas trip, we headed there to catch up. We started with drinks – unfortunately my mojito, whilst a generous size, was like having a lot of rum punch you in the face – there was no subtlety and I couldn’t come close to finishing it, it was so alcoholic. We picked the gameroni all’aglio as our entree, prawns in
Replacing The Kennedy Room in Kingston, is newly opened Salotto Bar and Kitchen. By the same owners as Santa Lucia Trattoria down the road, this modern Italian eatery offers the shorter version of Santa Lucia’s menu. You’ll find some tempting starters such as an antipasto platter, arancini balls and zucchini fritters. Pastas are homemade and are to change regularly with three types of sauces remaining constant. A selection of pizzas are available as well as your meat options like rib eye, veal scallopini, and fish fillet. The porchetta of 1.2kg stuffed and rolled pork belly looks absolutely amazing.
Fantastic Italian restaurant and enjoyable experience! The staff were friendly, extremely helpful and assisted with food and wine recommendations. From the entrees, mains to desserts, every meal was appreciated by our group of friends. The ambiance in the restaurant made us feel warm and welcomed. Great location and the service was fantastic. We would all recommend this restaurant!
The food was wonderful. Truly Italian cooking. The reasons I didn't give 5 stars are 1: I had an Amaretto Sour cocktail. Two sips and it was gone. A lot of money for a glass of ice. 2: I had garlic prawns and spaghetti Al mare. It would be nice to have had a bowl for the shells.
The best Italian food I've eaten for a long time - especially loved the "straw and hay" spaghetti, which was amazing. Wine is well priced, and our group of 7 had a great night.
Would reccomend! Food was a solid 8/10 nothing out of this world but a solid choice for a regular occasion. Table service and front of house staff are unreal!!
The water was always replaced.
The tables were clears as soon as others left.
All staff were very friendly and inviting.
If you're one for the extra 1%ers and you like the overall experience and not just the food, this is a great choice !!!
Great meals with attentive service and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend
I had a great experience here. I ordered the mushroom risotto. The flavour was incredible. Sadly the rice wasn't cooked the whole way through, but the waiter brought me my second choice within a few minutes, as well as a round of drinks on the house as an apology. I'm sad that the risotto wasn't right because it tasted so good, but the service and recovery from their mistake was so wonderful that I'm keen to go back and try the risotto next time I'm in town. Everything else my family had tasted delicious. Super impressed with this place.
