I ordered a seafood dish and it was yummmm! So fresh! The kids enjoyed the food too... and the lovely waitress helped our little one (19 month old) settle by giving him extra menus to play with!

Will come back ! Good service, yummy food, reasonably priced. Our first visit, will definitely return next time we are at the Gold Coast.

Holiday Being a vegetarian enjoyed the food. Amazing food and a great service. It’s a blessing for vegetarians to find a good vegetarian food with a lovely taste.

Excellent Meal. Great Service. Amazing Deal Went here with our Italian friend who is not only a local, he is also a chef so he really knows good food.Had the best Veal Scallopini ever - I... read more know that isn't a sophisticated dish, but it's surprising just how many places get it wrong! This place got it really really right, and I was then blown away by the great 2 for 1 price deal which we didn't know about! Considering it was Christmas holiday season, I really did not expect that!. All three of our waiters were Italian, which is great to see in an Italian restaurant! The only tiny thing I would say is that a bit of bread (considering Italians eat bread with EVERYTHING) would have been nice to scoop up the leftover cream sauce - I didn't ask, they didn't offer. No biggie. read less

Friendly staff and lovely wines on offer too.

Get in early though as it gets extremely busy. I'd recommend booking a table as even with this, you may have to wait.

But once you've ordered, the food comes out so quickly, and you won't be disappointed!

We will definitely be back the next time we holiday on the G.C. read less
