Had been here a few times previously but to the bar downstairs. Finally got to try the restaurant on Thursday night for 5 of us but we didn’t have a booking, however the host was kind enough to book us on the next available table at 9.15pm (45 min wait). The dinner was incredible. We ordered many items to share from charcuterie, pasta and mains. We had one vegetarian in the group so ordered some veg options which were also amazing. Finished the night with the cheese platter and some espresso martinis! Service was great even though it was a busy night. Food was so good, didn’t even have time to take photos!! Thanks again for a wonderful evening.

When I was traveling in Sydney, I initially had plans to go to a different restaurant after a whole day work, but my driver strongly recommended this bistro, and it turned out that car drivers couldn't have been more right about finding great late-night food! The service here is excellent as well, and the recommended wines are also fantastic. If you want to have a delicious Italian meal after a night of fun, coming here is definitely the right choice!

My experience at this restaurant was underwhelming. While the food was decent, the portion size didn't quite justify the price. What stood out negatively was the service—there was a recurring joke from the staff about charging us for every small service, like pouring water for $50. Initially bearable, it became distasteful with several repetition. The loud music contributed to an uncomfortable atmosphere, diminishing the overall dining experience.

My pasta and side dish was excellent but i did realise that for $30+ per plate the serving size where lacking or unbalanced . I got a ok serving of spaghetti while my 2 siblings got each around 10-12 gnocchi's per plate for $30ish dollars a plate 😂. Atmosphere and decoration was fantastic but i couldn't tell if ot was dusty or not due to low lighting. Service was ok, they did forget the drink i ordered and only asked if the food was ok after we finished eating and did nothing about my criticism other than a mild reaction.

Everything was on point! Burrata salad was fresh and delicious! The crispy freekeh was a good add on to the texture. Pasta was very al dente and flavourful. Chill vibes and friendly service. Good for date nights.
