This place is a must! We feel it’s unfortunate that people have had bad experiences here because that was not the case for us at all. The service was perfect and the food was seriously delicious, we pride ourselves on being Italian lovers and this food definitely hit the mark. The seafood was fresh, the pasta was homemade and the risotto was cooked perfectly.
My partner and I had dinner on Saturday 18 Dec, at first glance a small unimpressive somewhat noisy little restaurant, however the food is
wow simply wonderful the special of the day Swordfish in lemon butter sauce with a hint of dill was delightfully refreshing, the flesh was cooked perfectly with a nice set of grill marks across it, not just pleasing to the eye but wonderful on the tongue and palate, the chips were chips and the salad had a tasty not overpowering dressing, overall 5 out of 5.
My partner had the Fettuccine Bosciaola a smooth creamy mushroom pasta , it was delicious 5 out of 5.
Dessert hahahaha yes we did, the panacotta and honeycomb was simply devine 5 out of 5, banana and fig pudding with vanilla ice cream was also great but not a patch on the panacotta 4.5 out of 5.
I would recommend this little gem to everyone the service was friendly and a very nice view across the road to the beach made a wonderful setting.
LOVE THIS RESTAURANT!!!We've dined here half a dozen times the last being last night. Staff are always very friendly and super efficient but still leave you to have a romantic dinner, unlike a lot we've dined in over the years. The BYO or Licensed option is the first thing that shows how flexible they are.
THE FOOD!! The best authentic Italian Cuisine we have ever eaten. And we've tried a few different meals from the menu!!! Can't wait to go back and try the ones we haven't then start all over again 😍
THANKYOU STAFF AND OWNERS FOR LETTING US INDULGE IN YOUR BEAUTIFUL FEASTS
Great experience. Food was fab. Had both pasta and pizza and both very extremely well cooked and presented. Marinara had lots of delicous seafood and the Gianni special pizza was great. Highly recommend.

Amazing Italian fare, good servings, homely feel. Pizza is by far one if the best and freshest in this part of town. I would come back again.
Don't believe everything you read on the above reviews sounds like these people could not afford there holiday and was looking for a free ride, our experience was fantastic place was fully booked and they still managed to fit us in drinks and food where great service equally as good yes little pricey but what isn't these days just look at your grocery bill next time your out, we'll done guys
Such a gem of a place. The pastas and the bruschetta we had were simple and delicious, and very well priced. Always a good sign when your meals come out with little bottles of olive oil and vinegar 🤤
Wines were also lovely. The decor and atmosphere reminds me of a little family owned place in Italy, it’s simplicity is very charming. Service was also spot on for us, helpful but not overbearing. Not to mention the view of the bay you get from the restaurant. Would 100% recommend and will absolutely be back next time we visit.
Great traditional Italian experience! Authentic delicious cuisine. Best waiter ever....delightful, patient and a great smile! Water view .... and the ultimate essentials...beautiful Nonna out the back and Dean Martin serenading through the sound system. Highly recommend!
Beautiful food and the service was lovely, the waitress and waiter were so pleasant to us. The pizza was cooked beautifully and we had the special which was the squid ink fettuccini. AND WOW, soooo good. My partner and I would definitely come here again!! 5/5!
Great pizza dough, crispy crust, quality toppings. Quick service (20min takeaway) on Good Friday. Not sure why some reviews need to be so rude, it can really negatively affect good business.
Ordered takeaway. The prawn pasta was delicious. Just the right amount of chilli and a great number of prawns. The meatlovers pizza was great. I will definitely be back.
