Best Authentic Restaurants in Oatley

We had the pleasure of dining at Pappina’s Pizza Restaurant on a Sunday evening, and it was nothing short of fantastic. Making a reservation through OpenTable was quick and hassle-free, setting the tone for an easygoing evening. The restaurant has a welcoming atmosphere with spacious seating options both indoors and outdoors. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly and attended to with impeccable service, even though the place was quite busy. We started with a fresh rocket salad and opted for one of their newer pizza options topped with fresh prosciutto. The staff kindly accommodated our request to have the salad served alongside our main, and everything arrived promptly. The salad was crisp and refreshing, while the pizza was absolutely delicious — the crust was perfectly crafted, satisfying even my picky Italian standards. To top it all off, we enjoyed a crisp Moretti Italian beer, which was the perfect companion to the meal and a lovely way to wind down the weekend. Pappina’s strikes the perfect balance between great food, a warm atmosphere, and excellent service. We’ll definitely be back

The best pasta I have ever had in my life!!!!!!!!!

This has been the best experience food wise at Christmas for me. The array of food that was on show, all beautifully showcased. The oysters, may I add, were chilled, prawns and crab were sweet and fresh. The amount of food showcased was bountiful and I didn't even get through half of what was on offer. All I know is that I had the best experience, it wasn't crowded, it was 10/10 and not anything like a food court, but a 5 star restaurant. Desserts, cheese platters, fruit...I didn't even get to unfortunately. It was a foodies dream and coming home, a clean house. No stress leading up to Christmas, it was all done in house and I walked away content and will do again.

Thanks staff has given us a room per our request. All 8 of us enjoyed the night very much. Five of us came to Cucina for the 1st time and they will revisit again with their own family.

They really were a surprise exceeded my expectations was not expecting such a fun and vibrant restaurant with excellent food
