Farina Pizzeria in Turramurra is a welcoming restaurant with a flair for Italian food. This neighbourhood restaurant on Normurra Avenue is charming for many reasons, from it’s laid back atmosphere and vibrant decor to it’s genuine hospitality. The menu would win over any Sydney local and comes packed with wood-fired pizza, calzones, pasta, risotto and hearty meat mains. We recommend a classic Diavola pizza with mozzarella and hot salami, the formaggi gnocchi with four cheeses or the pork belly with red wine poached apples and pistachio. Gluten-free pizza bases are available, as well as many vegetarian options. While you feast with family and friends, it’s also a great place to enjoy a drink. They’re fully licensed and you can BYO wine from Monday to Thursday. Farina Pizzeria is a casual gem in Turramurra – pay them a visit and find out why!

Everything was was very good but somehow we lost our outside table that was pre booked which was disappointing for us. Maybe rebooking doesn’t work??

The restaurant offers consistently good food. The Seafood stir fry and Barramundi are our main go to meals but the steak hits the mark as well. I think it would be hard to go wrong with any selection.
