1 point for the staff member that took my order. Warning don't order tiramuso , it is literally watery supermarket sponge sliced ever so thin so they can be even more scummy then disguised in cream. Its not a Italian tiramuso, its possibly the worst lve ever had. I had to throw in bin, wish l could of thrown it at who decided it was a good idea to serve to the public. What a waste , its totally spew worthy.

On Friday 21st May 2021 I ordered a main fettuccini carbonara for $17.90 but after eating it that night I got very bad diarrhoea because they obviously were deliberately trying to food poison me so I would definitely recommend staying well clear of this place and I will be telling others to do the same.

Approximate cost: $18

Not baby friendly at all - had to climb a mountain of stairs to dine in, no assistance by any of the staff. Salad was a dissapointing serving size and ofood in genrral was average

My daughter loves going here more than anything. She's 6, and yet to grow up. The ONE dish I loved was the calamari, but have been served far too many uncooked pizzas, complete with soft dough base. But, the kids lasagne and chips, well, the little ones love them.

Approximate cost: $15

I had never been to a La Porchetta restaurant (upstairs from the pizza place) until last night for a friend's birthday meal. The steak was cooked just the way i asked, with lashings of mushroom sauce, the chips were crunchy and full of flavour, out of all the people in our little group, only did a few finish their meals as the plate sizes were amazing! I have also never seen a sticky date pudding that big!!! We went around 8pm on a weeknight, and it was quiet and provided an atmosphere were we werent shouting at one another over the background noise. Very plesant, friendly staff. Caters for a good night out with the family or friends.

Again another restaurant we frequented for several years but diminishing quality sent us elsewhere.
Last few times we ate there pizza toppings were so thick that the middle was raw-but edges burnt. Couldn't eat it.
Veggies served with chicken fillets werent cooked-couldn't eat those. Pasta was ok but when asked howfoid was at checkout and an honest review given...nothing.
No apology no discount or refund.
So we took our large family gatherings elsewhere!!
It's been a while since we left so hopefully things have improved.

Approximate cost: $23.00

Staff here are terrible. When ordering pick up orders there is not enough waiting room and it gets very hot and crowded in the entrance.

Last time I was there I saw 3 staff members walk out the front door and have a smoke right next to the front door, I could even smell the smoke inside the shop. Then they butted out on the ground, left their butts next to the front door and went back inside. Very unprofessional.

Food is ok, standard La Porchetta quality.
