Sometimes the best restaurants are those suburban, family run establishments that have a lot of heart and who aim to deliver a fantastic meal to patrons. Clearly, this is the feeling behind the dining experience at Motorino. This humble pizza and pasta restaurant oozes with charm, and the staff are just so lovely. A cosy ambience encourages you to settle in for a delicious meal and the hand written blackboard menu tempt you with the daily specials.
Dining as a family, we chose several pizzas and a chicken pasta to share. The pasta was incredible, with al dente penne covered in a creamy tomato sauce that had heaps of authentic Italian flavour. A generous scattering of chicken was delicious, and had us fighting over the last bit.
The pizzas had tender but crispy crusts and a sweet tomato sauce. The cheese was extra oozey and the toppings were lovely and fresh. Spicy salami hit the spot, as did the roasted pumpkin. Two very different toppings, but equally delicious.
Along with a fantastic wine list, the menu sticks to Italian classics, but does them well. Finishing up with a plate of ricotta canolli, we were in Italian dessert heaven. Three crispy shells were overflowing with delicious and delicate ricotta; and the side of strawberry gelato was the perfect touch of freshness and zing that this dish needed. Once again, we were fighting over the last of the dessert. We left Motorino with full tummies and all in agreement that we can't wait to return for another night of fabulous food and fun.
Have been to this wonderful establishment a number of times over the last year and it never fails to please. Prompt and friendly service, outstanding food that is very tasty and well considered. Portions are a perfect sizing and the specials dishes always present an exciting option. Special mention to the staff and owners here. I asked for advice on a wine and was provided a great steer by my server, but to my surprise the owner also gave me a free tasting to ensure I was happy with the recommendation. Now this is a place I will happily return to and recommend to all my friends. Great food and service consistently!
Feel like and Pizza or Pasta instead of a fast food burger? This is the place to come. Great food at a reasonable price. Staff are friendly and welcoming. You can't go wrong here. Highly recommend.
