we had a couple of very yummy pizzas late on Tuesday night. The service was good and we didnt have a long wait for our food. The family size pizzas are nice and big, two of them can feed four as there were three of us and we took home roughly half a pizza.
Visited for dinner, we didn’t make a reservation but they had an available table right by the door. It was a freezing night and everytime the door opened we got a gust cold wind, which impacted my experience. The male waiter was not very bothered to put in much effort but the female waiter had great service. We ordered the Ravioli Verdi, the Pollo affumicato pizza and roast veges. I enjoyed the meal. Overall a good experience.
A cozy Italian spot with great food and service! Its a big call but Id say its the best Italian in Auckland outside of Amano. The pastas are homemade and full of flavour. Will be back next time for pizza! Loved the wine list of Italian and local drops.
Cute place which was quite busy when we visited. The lady sever was amazing! She was so nice and kind and seemed so on to it/knowledgeable. We orders some starters and mains. The mains too awhile to come out however, the starters came out really fast which was good as we were starving.Pasta was cooked perfectly and food was great. Wished the garlic pizza had the garlic more minced,finer instead of leaving it whole though.
Amazing service! Greeted straight away before we even stepped foot into the restaurant by a bubbly and cheery girl!We ordered Carparccio, Gnocconi, Tortellini, which came first as entrees; and then Anatra Suprema (Duck) and Scaloppine (Veal) to follow.- Carparccio (8/10). The beef was thinner than expected and was almost hidden under a thick blanket of rocket leaves. Nonetheless, when you put a slice of beef with some leaves on the bagel bread crisps – VOILA! The seasoning and the crunchiness of the crisp adds so much to each bite, making the beef more flavoursome and much more exciting to eat!- Gnocconi (9/10). These were essentially potato-based dough cakes with cream cheese filling inside, smothered under a rich layer of punchy tomato puree! The outer pastry is doughy, chewy yet slightly mashed due to the potato starch. The cream cheese was subtle yet softened each bite, and the Parmesan on top added the extra saltiness it needed! This is especially best when hot!- Tortellini (10/10). ABSOLUTELY DEVINE! 10 generously-sized beef tortellinis bathing in a truffle pesto and porcini cream sauce…DELICIOUS! The beef was packed with flavour, tortellini cooked to perfection, and THAT SAUCE! Creaminess but not overly rich, you get hints of pepper, cheese and truffle and when paired with the beef tortellinis, everything dances on the tongue. I wish there was more of that sauce! I could have it as a soup on it’s own haha!- Duck (7.5/10). I was looking forward to this dish seeing as its a popular one here. The duck was overcooked and was too hard and tough. The skin was well-done though! Flavour-wise it was lacking a bit too. The potato mash at the bottom was good, and I liked the fermented purple cabbage salad! This would have been a standout dish if the duck was cooked right!- Veal (7/10). The veal was cooked nicely and was soft, tender and moist. The white wine butter sauce was lovely, and the mushrooms added to the creaminess and flavours. However, the side vegetables were too mediocre, being just steamed cauliflower, broccoli, carrot and long beans. Would’ve liked to see more culinary techniques put into the side elements too, and this would have been a great dish!Service was amazing from start to finish! Our waters were refilled before I even realised they were empty! The girl was very helpful and approachable!I would come back here for another shot of authentic Italian cuisine, but perhaps more for their pasta as opposed to their secondi mains!Food: 8/10Price: 9/10Service: 10/10Ambience: 8/10
Very friendly customer service. Great home made style Italian food. Nothing too fancy. But great to eat. The capsicum and cheese were very delicious, everything else was good. Service: 5/5Presentation:3/5Environment: 3.5/5Food Quality: 3.5/5Food Quantity: 4.5/5Price per person: $30-$50
Went for dinner. Every dish was good. We ordered too much to try the pizza, will try next time. There’s peppa pig pizza on kids menu, my daughter was really looking forward to try.
