Authentic wood fire pizza with a rustic and minimalist decor. Service was genuine and added a special touch to the meal. Would recommend the Sangiovese wine. Arancini balls and calamari were both nice antipasti,

Quality woodfired pizzas and fairly priced. The dough was so lovely, soft and chewy - not sure if that's the best way to describe it. Went as a group of 6. Each pizza has 6 slices so it is the perfect group size because you get to try a bunch of pizzas. We originally ordered 4 but ordered another when we saw the special menu item.
🍕Tartufo ($25) fior di latte, italian sausage, porcini & truffle paste
🍕Quattro Formaggi ($21) scarmoza, fior di latte, gorgonzola, & parmigiano
🍕Diavola ($23) san marzano, fior di latte, salami, olives, roasted capsicum & chilli
🍕Napoli ($18) san marzano, fior di latte, anchovy, olives & oregano
🍕Special ($26) basil pesto, foot do latte sausage, potato, parmassn cheese cream
Anchovies were quite salty for my taste. Cheese was super cheesy, even as a cheese lover I don't know if I could've handled more that one slice. I loved the truffle, it was so flavourful. The special flavour was interesting, I've never had potato on a pizza and the pesto was pretty fresh.
We went to Rosso Antico for a anniversary dinner. We didn't have the option to make a reservation as they don't take bookings but we arrived at 630 and there were plenty of spots available. By 7pm though the place was full with people waiting on the seat outiside. Deliveroo and Menulog came in and out constantly. The warehouse-esque style is perfect for the area and the cuisine was well priced for what it was. We had two serves of bruscetta and two pizzas plus a byo wine for $62.50. The byo fee was $5 per bottle. The service started quite well but as time went by the service went down hill. The pizzas we ordered were pancetta di palate and tartufo. Both were quite large, had lots of cheese and the other toppings were reasonable. The italian sausage on the tartufo was lovely, cheese taste authentic and the crust was to die for. We didnt have desert as we were so full but we were very content with the meal. It was value for money and easy to find a park so we will def be back.
The Tartufo ($25) on the other hand was probably one of the most noteworthy pizzas I’ve had to date. The excellent crust made another reappearance, but the lackluster tomato was swapped for a richly pungent smear of truffle paste, and topped chunks of coarse Italian sausage, and juicy porcini mushrooms that burst with earthy umami. I’d go back for this alone.
It is the third time in the last 5 months that we come to this restaurant and honestly, they've never failed.Â
This time we came on a Saturday night and it was very busy.Â
We had to wait almost half an hour to be seated, but trust me guys, it worths it.Â
In this occasion we ordered arancini balls for entrĂ©e and then we decided to get into the pizza special and we ordered both pizza special available that night which were the burratina and the sfiziosa.Â
It seemed not true! , but we were completely astonished how tasty they were.Â
Athough it was a quite busy night, the staff was very attentive, professional and efficient, especially one of the guys whose name was Oswaldo that read our mind by bringing us some fresh chilli oil without even ask to him.Â

THANKS GUYS FOR GIVING ME ANOTHER GREAT FOODÂ EXPERIENCE
Beautiful food and people! All of the food was delicious and the fresh flavours were refreshing. The fun atmosphere made for a great night out!
Authentic Neapolitan woodfired pizza with chewy charred puffy crusts on the outside and super thin saucy goodness in the middle. Our tarfuto (sausage, porcini mushroom and truffle paste) was rich but not over powering, and our Margherita was on point. We came on a busy Saturday night and had to get in queue for half an hour to get a table, the service was understandably rushed but the food really delivered. Also love the fact they do BYO at $4.50 per bottle. We will be back!
Dinner tonight was at Rosso Antico Pizza Bar and I have to say, what a pleasant treat! Finding ourselves in the Newtown/Enmore area we were looking for something to eat and settled here. The service was attentive and lively, the place had a lovely atmosphere and the food was top notch. Fresh tasting ingredients and beautiful dough on the pizzas we had. We'll be back soon :)
This place has amazing pizzas that have so much flavour! I have had the margarita pizza a few times now and it is the best! The patate e Pancetta is very tasty! The crochetes are amazing too for a starter!
Their pasta is fresh and full of flavour! Lovely, quick and friendly service
Was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant, the service was attentive and friendly & the pizzas were great! Ordered a two pizzas that came out quickly, the dough was nice and thin and cooked well. Only downside was that the margherita pizza felt a fit soggy in the middle.
Recently had Italian food cravings. So we popped in for a pizza and the calamari. Both great dishes. Also there bread was divine that we ordered seconds. If your into big bread like crusts. You’ll be happy with what comes out!
This place has the best Italian pizza I've ever tried. Highly Recommend for fluffy and delicious pizza that will make you keep coming back for more.
Friday night no booking. This place was pumping!
Great vibe - the floor manager maybe owner (Oswaldo - if I got it right) got us seated at the bar.
Service quick.
Pizza - unbelievable. Light dough - flavoursome toppings - pretty cheap pricing compared to many others at the moment in the market.
They seemed under staffed & under the pump - yet the staff & specially Oswaldo were real polite & smiling when service.
Definately would be back & strongly recommend - giving them a go once or many more times 🤙🏻
Good job people
Fantastic authentic Italian style pizza - nice staff, no pushy overselling. The place was buzzing and full at 6 pm on a weekday - so clearly a local favorite.
The pizza’s were really flavorful and the cold meat platter we ordered had a nice selection.
We were driving so didn’t get a wine, but seemed like a good selection.
Very, very good pizza. The tartufo was generously seasoned with truffle, sausage and mushroom, and the crust was divine. You certainly do pay for the pleasure, but the prices are similar to other woodfired pizza joints, where the pizza itself is superior so all-in-all I'd say the value for money is reasonable.
The best food and customer service in town. Rosso Antico has become a Friday staple because the pizzas are out of this world and Charlie, Rick and Aaron are incredibly welcoming. I can't speak highly enough of Rosso Antico. Definitely put it on your list.
