How we read reviews →Doncaster's old-school Italian dining room. big portions, generous toppings and Al Pacino on the walls.
A warmly lit, intimate Italian dining room that evokes classic neighbourhood trattorias of the 1980s. Recently refurbished with Al Pacino-themed décor adding a touch of theatrical personality. Cosy and welcoming for dine-in with a busy parallel takeaway operation. Lively and buzzy on weekend evenings.
Signature Persian pizza is a standout menu differentiator unavailable at standard Italian restaurants. Recently refurbished interior under new management. Dine-in and takeaway both available. BYO with corkage applies (note: $10/head. higher than typical). Online booking currently unreliable; phone reservation recommended for groups.
Australian-Italian tradition. under previous ownership it was noted as family-run Italian with deep community roots. New management has maintained the Italian menu style. The Persian pizza is a creative fusion addition that resonates strongly with the local Iranian community.
Good value relative to the portion sizes. large servings at moderate prices are consistently praised. Some concern from long-term regulars about quality declining slightly post-ownership change and one complaint about high corkage ($10/head). Overall sentiment leans positive on value for dine-in.
