A great family restaurant serving delicious Italian food, with selections such as Lasagna Traditional home made fresh layered pasta combined with herbs and an authentic tomato bolognese sauce to Salsicce pizza with a tomato base, mozzarella cheese, Italian pork sausage, onion and chilli. I opted for Risotto Marinella Rice with a combination of fresh tiger prawns, scallops, squid and perch fillet pieces sautéed with a light white wine, tomato and chilli sauce. It was delicious and the serving large enough for me to have leftovers for the next day. My husband had the Medaglione Di Manzo Succulent beef tenderlions layered with a combination of spinach and crisp proscuitto, topped with a red wine jus which was more than he should have eaten in one sitting, but scrumptious enough that he did.
I was a bit disappointed that there were no desserts on the menu, but there were some jars inside with selections of huge chocolate and m and m cookies for the dessert inclined.
The setting is quite casual offering indoors and outdoors seating. Wine served on the premises. Nice place to go with family, especially if your little ones like the traditional kid feasts of past and pizza.
Prices for meals range from about $14 to $27 AUD.
