    Wonderful place to eat, accomdating on short notice and adjusted the menu as stock levels changed so that we could still have our favourite menu items. 10 out 10 best Italian food in Canberra, the only place better would be if you flew over to Italy 🇮🇹 Always a wonderful time when visiting

    Just the nicest place for an evening out. Friendly efficient service. Prompt arrival of food. Wine poured from bottle and at the table so that you knew exactly what you were drinking. Simple menu but the food was authentically Italian and so tasty. I don’t go often however it’s always a pleasure and a treat that I look forward to.

    Good hotel dinner options, food was good. Rather basic Chaires/tables etc. service was ok but staff “remembering” orders doesn’t always work…bread order forgotten. White wine bottle served was not cold with staff insisting it would cool in ice bucket…changed order to something that was cold. We also had breakfast following day and a good hotel buffet with sufficient options. Table clearing slow though. All suggests maybe have some trouble getting staff…like everywhere at the moment perhaps. But would go again!
