Excellent food at great value. Staff are all well presented and polite. Food is exceptionally good for the price and service is great. Difficult to decide between pizza and pasta - but for the price you can have both. Highly recommend!

This restaurant is very family friendly and of a high quality. The food is always very nice and doesnt take too long to come out. The waiters are generally very friendly and understanding.

It was local, and we do like Italian food - in fact we had a lovely time at the La Porchetta near Victoria Market, so thought we'd try to support local businesses. The service was non-existent, the food mediocre and the value for money abysmal. Why is it still open?

I have had this same experience, and have discontinued going there. No service and cheap poor quality meals. I'd rather take my family to McDonalds.

we were greeted by a girl that apparently was new there and didn't know much about the food they served there. then another staff member approached us. she wasn't too polite either. the only nice thing about the restaurant was the food. we had a nice pizza - "original porchetta". not going back there again.

Approximate cost: $10.30

After waiting 10 minutes to be greeted and seated, we eventually seated ourselves. We then waited and found our own menus. The place was not busy and at least two waitstaff were hanging around. After bringing us some water, we were again left alone waiting to place our order. I sought out who appeared to be the manager and told him we were waiting to place our order. He sent a waiter to us. We then again waited for over 30 minutes for our meals (fish/pasta). During our very ordinary meal we were not approached at all. At the end of the meal, I spoke again to the manager about the lack of service we had experienced and he said that they had been short-staffed. Despite this, there were unoccupied waitstaff evident during our visit.

Approximate cost: $20
