Roza's Kitchen - Pizza, Burgers, Pasta

Southbank's no-frills comfort kitchen with standout pizzas that outperform the modest shopfront

Compact, cafe-style diner on City Road near Crown Casino. Unpretentious interior with limited seating; some outdoor tables with heaters. Lively and community-friendly. the kind of place where the staff know regulars by name and the smell of fresh pizza drifts to the footpath.

Wide menu spanning pizza, pasta, burgers, chicken parma, risotto, and Persian-influenced grilled dishes. Pizza customisation available. Counter ordering with QR code at tables (sometimes non-functional). Sells beer. Open most days from 11am-11pm making it one of Southbank's late-night options. Menu includes Indian-influenced (tandoori) and Persian (chelo morgh, chargrilled chicken) specialty pizzas.

Not a traditional Italian restaurant. the menu is a deliberate fusion of Italian staples (pizza, pasta, risotto) with Persian-influenced dishes and Indian-spiced toppings. The owner appears to have Iranian heritage based on menu items and reviewer comments about Persian food. This cultural blend is a point of difference rather than a liability.

Mixed sentiment. prices are considered fair by Southbank standards (near Crown Casino) but individual dishes at $30+ are seen as pricey for portion sizes. The pizza is rated as great value; the chargrilled chicken mains feel undersized for the price. Overall leans positive: portions praised as generous by the majority and prices described as reasonable given the location.
