Food was great! We loved the eggplant chips, and the pastas hit all the right notes.

The gnocchi here was delicious and satisfied my cravings. Pizza was great too, but the ham was a bit too salty for my liking. Staff was polite but could be more attentive to the tables - it took a while to grab their attention. Overall a good experience, would come back!

Had lunch & dinner on 3 separate occasions. Each time we were served promptly and food came out quickly. Excellent base on the wood fired pizzas. Eggplant chips are delicious. Steak was great. Extensive $9 lunch menu available. Lots of pizzas & pasta. Decor is plain but who cares.
Highly recommend this place.

Great food! The wood-fired Priscuito Pizza was especially good. The pizza crust was like the ones I ate in Rome. I especially liked the Pollo Avocado Riso. The eggplant chips is a must try! Nice experience and very friendly staff.

Food was amazing here love the ambience of this place. Only thing that detracted from the experience was the awkwardness of the wait staff. Would still go again

Pleasently surprised. New establishment and they are still obviously finding their feet service wise, but vey pleasant and eager. Pasta was authentically flavoured and delicious, made the wait worthwhile. Pizzas on other tables looked and smelled great, will try next time. Panna cotta for desert was great...genuine home made, not mass produced or full of gelatine.

Staff are ultra friendly, very helpful lovely people who even generously gave us an extra scoop of ice-cream. We used Groupon - $39 for a 2 mains, 2 glasses of wine, a shared entree and shared dessert, on a Sunday night - they fitted us in with very short notice. Restaurant was about 20% full when we arrived at 6:30, 65% full when we left. We ordered an extra bolognase on the top for the kids. Eggplant fries were perfectly done, as was the chicken gnocci and bolognase. the seafood risotto would have been perfect except the scallops seemed like some sort of processed marinara - i.e. it had a different texture than real scallops; mussels were of average quality. Gelati and sorbet were very good quality - the flavours definitely came out in all 4 scoops. House red was lovely and easy to drink - probably a merlot. The decor is ok, though the bamboo cladding on the base of the walls seems the one thing out of place - and yes we recognise that it came from the previous Thai restaurant; facilities were new looking and clean though. Brown paper table cloths is very different to the standard white paper used in most Italian restaurants - this gives the place more of a casual feel, rather than classy or formal. overall we enjoyed the experience and would more than likely come back another time - the Groupon deal seems like value anyway.

All of the food we had was fantastic. The bomboloni for dessert in particular! The let down was the service, huge English language barrier which made things difficult but would return.

I ordered these guys take away because I saw their lunch special, and Dominos round here is really bad (2 x bouts of food poisoning). I was not expecting what I got: 

- Great pizza without the pretense
- Good Bruschetta

I'd recommend this restaurant: great food - and value for money. Most satisfied and now loyal customer.

New restaurant that more people should try! The Calamari and goats cheese salad is amazing, Carbonara is rich and creamy and the pizzas are perfectly simple.

Organised a Take-Away Parma, it was perfect, fresh Parma, tasty Chips and a great Salad, made eating it at home seem like a comfortable restaurant. Service was wonderful, organised my order for the exact time I planned it for. Will definitely come back.

Friendly service and the food was delicious. Pizzas thin and crusty with just the right amount of toppings. Lamb ragu was fresh and creamy. Chicken gnocchi was smooth and creamy. Will come again. Little gem of a place

Not quite sure how to rate this place. Some elements were great, others not so great. The entree ‘tasting plate’ was probably a little overpriced for $29. But the wood fired pizzas were pretty good and value for money. I probably wouldn’t dine in again but I’d buy a takeaway pizza.

Had a great lunch at this newly opened restaurant. Best wood fired pizza I have had in a while - the garlic and cheese for a starter was really really good, followed by a rich & creamy carbonara plus shared some of the rustico pizza with my son. My husbands marinara pasta was also deemed excellent. We finished off with a perfect wobbly pane-cotta And a thick but smooth chocolate mousse.

Have been here a couple of times. We arrived for an early dinner around 5.30pm on a Saturday night and were first customers. We were seated and given drink and pizza menu's. Service can be a little slow but always friendly staff. Our pizzas came quickly. Toppings are good and as always great wood fired pizzas. Prices here are very reasonable. The large pizzas are a good size and the two we ordered were pretty filling. For desert we ordered Bambolini which are Golden dough bites rolled in cinnamon sugar with Nutella sauce. These were really good and great size serve. The gelato was also really good. Highly recommended for a nice casual dinner.

A small family run business that produces some amazing Italian food. We've come here many times now and am never disappointed. Quality, price and service sizes are all generous. Hosts are lovely and you can tell are a young family. If you enjoy a nice meal then do yourself a favour and give them a try. Chances are you'll be back many times like we have!

Fantastic food & good service. Unfortunately due to the heat over 40o the aircon was struggling with a few tables of patrons. This will not stop us from coming back. Authentic Italian meals. Spaghetti seafood, pizza, calamari & the chicken parmigiana were all delicious.

I have visited this place a couple of times now and was impressed every time with the tasty food, particularly the gnocchi. Staff was always most helpful and has a lovely family atmosphere. Maybe it’s best not to use the courier services as I noted some people were not happy when ordering through them. I will find it hard to believe that you will not be most pleased with this place, considering it’s also well priced. They also have a lovely and cheap wine (for a restaurant) wine list. I’ve been telling everyone I know about this little gem. Taking my son and his family there this Friday, as he loves good food.

Been back about 20 times and don’t live in the area. One of best Italian we’ve had without the expensive price tag. A lot of love and care in their food and service. Their Spaghetti Frutti Di Mari and risotto are fantastic seafood dishes we always order.

Just back from an amazing Anniversary Dinner. We tried this restaurant after seeing it open for a couple of months. The quality of food was fantastic. Nice to meet Grace the co owner and chat about the business. Her husband Nav is the chef and my gnocchi melted in my mouth and my wife's garlic prawns were also great. We will be back to this very well priced restaurant .

Dined her 4 weeks ago as part of a family catchup. Was easily the best carbonara I have had from a diverse range of restaurants and pubs in Victoria. Strictly speaking; they need to really be more generous with the serving sizes of the pasta & maybe reduce price. Other than that ; I feel they are a great restaurant that I would thoroughly recommend for families and couples to dine after a long day.
