Customer Reviews

“A Perfect Evening Out” – Jenny Bush

“Food was absolutely delicious and the ambience amazing! Ellie was our waitress and the service she provided was second to none! Her friendly nature topped off what was a special night for us as my granddaughter celebrated her last night in Australia. A perfect evening out. Thank you so much.”

“Great Location, Average Food” – Michael Tonna

“Beautiful location. Food lacks flavour, not what you would expect for traditional Italian. Massive seating capacity takes away from the passion for the food. One positive — they show dishes on the screen before ordering.”
