The food is great and fairly priced. You can get a steak, chips and salad for $15. Stanley (new owner) worked for 5 years in an Italian restaurant and his pizzas and pastas (especially the seafood gnocci) are fantastic. We have taken guests from France to lunch and dinner here and they reckon it was excellent. The staff are always friendly. Don't let looks deceive you. It is a bit dimly lit at night.good but not bad.

The food was pretty good and the service too. however, the quality was not all that. They do have an extensive menu though

Approximate cost: $20

this was the worst dining experience me and my partner combined have ever encountered!
We chose the Italy pizza which sounded so divine on the menu with a mixture or fresh and cooked ingredients.. salami, Italian sausage, mushroom, kalamata olives, with boncconcini cheese fresh grated parmesan and rocket on top...
wow.. this was far from what actually happened, the salami was ok.. the Italian sausages were actually your regular everyday aussie BBQ sausages with a disgusting texture, the mushrooms appeared and tasted, dehydrated, there was NO bocconcini, just regualr oily tasty cheese ( which has no place on an Italian Pizza!), and the parmesan was sprinkled over from a stinky pre shredded pack.. gross!

The description on the menu was so enticing and sounded like heaven! It was such a let down.

Anticipating delicious woodfire pizza, can't really go wrong with woodfire! (boy were we wrong!!) we were served an oily, soggy undercooked pizza with a white charcoal stained base.

To top this off, my partner pulled some kind of rubber elastic string out of a mouthful, mid-meal...
This turned me off! but i guess we felt bad for the business and maybe we should have read the early signs:
We were the only customers there for the approximate hour or more we were there and had walked past before a couple of times and also saw no customers
When we decided to eat there, the lady working was sitting outside socialising with some guy who was smoking and we had to wait a while to get served...

On the plus side.. when we were done and contemplating if we should say anything or not (we didn't by the way), she did bring us out a flask of water with two cups..

We both felt sick that night and i felt sick the next day also..

Worst pizza (oily slop on a soggy dough) ever!

Approximate cost: $22

the food is delicious and the pizza choices different than any I've seen, but yummy different, not weird. The service was a little on the slow side as they didn't have enough staff, but not too long a wait and the pizzas are well worth waiting for.

Approximate cost: $20
