I never knew this place existed in the sports club… I went with my friend who swore that it was amazing… it was quiet nice. I never enjoyed gnocchi as much as I did that night… it is a little overpriced- considering it’s in a club at Bankstown but it was nice food
Confusingly, this is not the same place as the main part of the Italian restaurant. Different menu and different food offerings. I had an eggplant pizza which costs $26. It was quite good. I also had the four cheese gnocchi and pesto pasta. Both were not good. Pesto pasta lacked the pesto flavour. Stars off because the restaurant was very loud. There were vacant seats yet my table was still placed next to a large group making our conversations difficult.
Thoroughly pleased with the quality and service offered at Stuzzichino! The booking experience over the phone was seamless and we were seated immediately upon arrival. We ordered the Casalinga pizza and the Linguine Piazza and struggled to finish them as they were generous with their portions. Despite my initial skepticism of corn kernels and zucchini on pizza, having these toppings added a light element which balanced out the creaminess of the cheese. The staff were also accommodating of the fact that it was my boyfriends birthday and surprised him with a birthday song and ice cream, making for a memorable experience.
I’ve been back recently with an Italian friend and we both enjoyed the gnocchi with piazza sauce and the steak Fiorentina. The gnocchi are light and fluffy and goes well with the creamy seafood sauce. Although I do recall there being more prawn pieces in the past. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and was tender and full of flavour. However if you are looking for the behemoth steak Fiorentina like they have in Italy, you may be disappointed that this is the size of a normal T-bone steak.
Wow, the last place I would look to find a very good Pizzeria and Italian eatery !Although I almost lost my patience with the slow seating service, I was brought back into happiness with the good food.Pizza’s perfectly cooked, pastas cooked to al dente, and a huge selection of drinks, there wasn’t much not to like
Service was appalling tonight. Orders lost/forgotten about with no answers or apologies. Given it WAS a common family location expected a lot more. They have lost a customer.
THE LEGACY OF ITALIAN FOOD IN THE HEART OF BANKSTOWN!It’s not rocket science why this cuisine is an Aussie favorite, it’s evolved and been layered by Italy’s neighbouring mediterranean influences for thousands of years and amazes me how that tradition and experience can be delivered to your table at lil ole humble Bankstown!The classic of PIZZA PARMA garlic, olive oil, prosciutto, shaved parmesan and rocket are the essential staples and set the stage for the very theatrical share plate that dominated our table giving us a taste from all regions of Italia but using the best of Australian produce!!!The seafood takes centre stage with accents of basic italian flavours we know and love adorning the dish without completing taking over:SCALLOPS CON PANCETTA brought in from Queensland and dressed in pancetta and rested on chickpea pure after grilling.COZZE MARINARA are Spring Bay mussels bathed in tomato, chilli and garlicPOLIPI ALLA PIASTRA barbecued marinated baby octupusNew sensations for me:ARANCINI MESSINESE was interesting, because I’ve only ever had Beef Ragu with pasta, so it was a new treat for me to have it in this mozzarella risotto ballFIORI DI ZUCCHINI – Zucchini flowers stuffed with walnuts, goats cheese, mascarpone in a tempura batter served on a pumpkin puree. I wouldn’t typically order something like this, but I was surprised, it was a nice accompaniment.All in all, the masterful showcase of Italian cuisine is really done justice with the technique, impact, presentation and service. Highly recommend this venue for your next night out! #italin #pizza #arancini #marinara #seafood thenextrushmagazine.com
