A lovely and cosy little restaurant that serves delicious and authentic Italian food. Had dinner with a friend for our birthday celebration last night and we had an amazing time. We asked the waitress who served our table for recommendations and her personal favourites were on point, including the wine, THANK YOU Ivey! The sardine toast is a must try, silky and tasty lagane e lenticchie was another great recommendation, to top it off the brodetto blew us away with the fresh Murray Cod and mussels, everything in this dish just goes so well with each other and the Murray Cod was perfectly cooked. Recommend to order a piece of bread to soak up the prawn broth. It’s recommended to look for the street number instead of the signage as its small sign and could be easily missed.
