Service:
A restaurant that has passed
many anniversary's and is still busy most nights must be doing something
right. We were welcomed with open arms and overall service very
good.
Presentation:
The food is exceptional, ingredients,
preparation and presentation are all top shelf. We started with
the Pizza bread (Focaccia) topped with Napoli sauce, garlic and
herbs. My partner had Mamma's Minestrone Soup, a thick soup filled
with fresh garden vegetables. For the mains I had the Scallopini
Ai Funghi, tender veal pieces pan-fried with muchrooms, garlic,
white wine and cream ($21.90) The Filetto Pacifico (steak with fresh
prawns and garlic cream sauce) was another winner.($32.00) We both
tried the Sticky Date dessert and this one's a winner!!
Wine List:
The wine-list is short but
adequate
Value for
Money:
The food quality
is good and taste seems to be the factor in dish construction. A
very good value in the price range, definitely worth a visit.
Ambience:
Nicely decorated without any
pretention, the ambience is just right. And if you don't mind a
little bit of opera now and then, the owner has an amazing voice!!
The feel
good factor:
My recommendation:- Come here
and enjoy a friendly atmosphere and great food.
Worth a trip back
