The Italian Kitchen is a lovely new restaurant in the new restaurant precinct at Westfield Miranda. It is lively and boosts inside and outside dining areas. The menu is a modern twist on some Italian classics, and looked quite promising. My friend and I sampled a few different dishes, which was nice enough but not as exciting I was expecting. We did not finish any of the dishes, and they were not cheap. The staff here are really nice, but slow in doing anything which I found frustrating. I will try eating here again, and I am hoping there will be more of a wow factor on my second take.
