Amazing gnocchi, so soft and so tasty! The plates are well served and the atmosphere is nice. Very close to the station.
Had a lunch with afew work mates here. ordered afew pizzas, a burger and afew beers. Food was good and service was quick. for the price you pay it was ok.
Have been here a few times now and incredibly impressed with the quality of the food and service. Open, modern and friendly atmosphere with choice of eating outside or in. Not only scrumptious pasta and pizza, but perfectly cooked steak and potatoes. My favourite was the garlic prawns, followed closely by the affogato. Waiters are quick and discreet. Loved that you could see chefs cooking your food too. Will travel to Mascot more often for this treat.
Real quick service and huge portion for a reasonable price. Their gnocchi is chewy, and sauce is flavourful. Spaghetti marinara is aromatic and they are pretty generous with their seafood.
Spacious restaurant that offers a variety of options. Apparently their Calzones are pretty well done too.
This authentic Italian pizza shop makes high rise tackiness cool. Great pizza options with favourites like bufala a burrata a plenty. Great for lunch and dinner.
La Bufala is the best italian food at this price I have ever tried. I usually come on weekends and it always has many guests. It seems that they need more waitress but the service is good. My favorate is the pizza white base with prawn, which I mostly order. The pasta is also great!
I came to leave a review not only because La Bufala is my favorate Italian restaurant in Sydney, but also because I am confused why this restaurant gets such a low rating on Zomato! That's weired!! Her rating on google is much higher.
If you look at it's reviews on Zomato, some reviewers who leave 1.0 mark ratings, also leave 1.0 mark ratings to other restaurants. They never leave any positive feedbacks to any restaurant. One of these 1.0 mark reviewers even said he ordered steak. la bufala does not provide steak! So these are probably bad mouthing!
Been here a few times and pretty happy with the food and service.
Sometimes when its busy, you may need to wait a while for the food and there’s only about 2 staff running the floor.
I used to love their bolognese, but thought of trying something different so I got the seafood pasta, pretty nice.
My partner gets the Diavola pizza everytime and its okay
The Arancini used to be better than this, I remember trying it before and it was really good.
Use to love their hot chocolate but lately its been so milky and has no cocoa or chocolate taste.
Service 4/5 🌟
Food 3.5/5 🌟
A great location for travellers staying close to the airport. Wood fired Pizza's are very good cooked in the traditional way. Quick attentive servive was in and out in 40 minutes. Ill be back!
This place serves authentic Italian food. By far the best pizza I have eaten. Every time I visit I order the Diavola. Salami used is proper hot salami.
Nearing 4 rating. Authentico Italian - pizza woodfired with the right level of chewiness in the base and fresh toppings. Tried the Gnomo and the Burrata one - both super tasty. The Nutella pizza also. Looking into the kitchen can see the chefs chopping up trays of delicious mushroom (presume porcini). Fresh airy place with tall ceilings, fresh modern decor with atmosphere and good vibe for families and groups. Also fine for couples. Close to both the Mascot train station and several new serviced apartments in the Meriton complex near Woolworths. Definitely one of the best options in the area. Tasty!
We quite enjoyed our experience here as we found the food to be nice and the service to be friendly. The food comes out quick and the waitress we had memorized our order without writing it down but she did forget one of our orders. Besides the pasta being a little too salty, everything else was fine. Would come back again to order other pizzas and pastas.

~Food~
I am hesitant to write anything critical about the food due to the responses of the owner on the other reviews. However, I will say that I share view of some of the other reviewers here that some of the pizzas were soggy. This seemed to apply more so to the tomato based pizzas than the white based ones. In saying that, you could tell the ingredients were high quality.
The gnocchi was reasonably good. The lamb ragu was very well executed and flavourful. This really elevated the dish.
On balance, I would rate the food 4/5.
~Atmosphere~
This is not the place you’d go for a quiet, romantic dinner. It is loud and energetic.
Our experience was unpleasant due to a flock of ~15 obnoxious individuals who insisted on standing up in the middle of the restaurant drinking. This meant my family were frequently knocked or touched on the back while eating. I saw another girl knocked by someone’s backpack while she was trying to eat.
The wall people standing in the middle of the restaurant made it difficult/impossible for the wait staff to effectively wait on our table.
We ended up saying something, and the waitstaff after immediately (to their credit). Presumably they told them to sit down because they did …for a moment. They were back up just minutes later.
My brother (who’s 21st we were there celebrating) and his girlfriend ended up leaving early as a consequence. They boxed up his birthday dinner and the two of them went home.
As such, I’d rate this aspect of the experience at 1/5.
~ Service ~
We changed our booking to make it later in the evening and the staff were incredibly accomodating.
When waitstaff could actually reach us they were polite, helpful and professional.
There was some difficulty getting service at times. For instance, when we first arrived we thought we had to order at the bar when it was actually table service. Given what’s happening in the world at the moment (covid, staff shortages) and the issues I touched on above, I understand why this may be the case.
On balance, I’d rate this aspect of the experience a strong 4/5.
My wife and I dined here for lunch and we were really impressed with the overall service and menu.The quality of the seafood was exceptional There are no words to describe the gnocchi, you can definitely tell it was made fresh. We look forward to dining here again !
Wanted to visit a woodfire restaurant (rated 4.9) but it was closed, so came here instead (rated 4.2). Ordered gnocchi and pizza. Surprisingly the pizza is better than the other place we didnt get to go.
Big portion. Only ordered 2 and it is more than enough for both of us. The restaurant looks pretty busy but fortunately it didnt take long to serve the food.
Good food and atmosphere overall. There were 6 of us and everyone was happy with their meal. Quite an extensive menu too so it's quite impressive that everything turned out well. Would say it's one of those places that you can't go wrong with anything you choose from the menu.
Great pizza joint with a very good pizza base, went there with friends last night and we all had a blast! The desserts were also awesome, and the price is great for what it’s worth!
If you come here, I highly recommend the burrata and tartufo pizzas 🍕
