In summary: these were some of the worst pizzas we have ever eaten, for triple the price. I am extremely sorry for leaving such a harsh review, as we really wanted to enjoy what this small business has to offer. Not only the pizzas, but the arancini balls and the calamari were overly salty, with minimalistic ingredients and extremely COLD! We ordered the pizzas at 4:30 PM that afternoon, to pick them up at 6:15 PM that night. However, not only did we receive them stone-cold, but they were missing much of the toppings with an extremely soft and spongy base. We are not quite sure how this would have happened, as they promise to be authentic Italian. I am again apologetic and hope you can work on your service to improve on in the future. The arancini balls were less like balls, and more like ice-filled mush. There was little taste left. Furthermore, the unbattered and non-deep-fried 'traditional' calamari was also left cold and turned to become rock hard. Unlike the 'traditional' sensation of the perfectly cooked meal had at many other similar restaurants. Furthermore, the prices were less than satisfactory, and we really think you should review your bottom line to see if these can be decreased. Surely the Noosa commercial space rent expense is not that extreme. I really hope your team can work with this feedback, and provide a better service for next time. Maybe I could suggest going to chat to Rio, from Locale, as he has ample experience in Italian cuisine. We will return and hope to not leave such a bad review next time. Thanks! Drew

Here are the reasons why I haven’t held back any stars - Fabulous, I mean absofuckinloutely fabulous service. The manager kept an eye on every table and was also welcoming patrons. Staff was professional, friendly and genuinely interested in serving the food. They checked in multiple times if everything we needed was made available. Coming to food. This place is going to my best pizza and Italian joints list. They serve pizza bread that is hand stretched 48 hours dough. Very delicious food, legit my words don’t do justice to the amazing flavoursome food I had here.

What a place, Feels like home! Right from the moment we arrived we were welcomed with open arms! Complimentary honeymoon glasses of bubbles , service that exceeds anything experienced locally, and a DAMN good dinner. Although extremely busy, our meals still came out quickly! We also requested drinks that weren’t listed on the menu, we received no ifs, ands, or buts! Nothing was a problem! I would highly recommend, if your after a genuine Italian dining experience this is THE only place. We WILL be back!

Burnt buns and way to over oiled I felt sick after one bite! Juices made with old fruit. Returned the food as unbeatable and no apology. Extremely loud inside we couldn’t have a conversation. Would not recommend. Looked out the back at Chefs and the look like kids. Ps I do have the right place… nice try covering it up I was there for breakfast for your bad oiled burgers (on buns that your saying you don’t sell) Just except your bad review I know where I ate and felt sick. I’ll happily walk in tomorrow and show you what you sell.

A very busy and popular place, particularly on a Monday night on Hastings St when many establishments are closed. The food was excellent and the pizzas made in the traditional Italian way where it is all about the base. Very, very good and we ate more than usual as it was just so hard to stop! The wait staff were particularly attentive and all were professional yet lovely. The only negative on the night was the male manager whose rude, abrupt and curt manner left a sour taste. Avoid him and you’ll have a wonderful experience.

I had higher expectations for this one. Pizzas are good if you like traditional Italian style pizza, like my mother in law said, the dough is like bread, but I know that's how Italians make their pizzas. We ordered calamari we thought it was fried calamari, but it wasn't, it was an actual sliced squid with sauce, I didn't like it and no one else on the table like it. Their pastas are not that great. Spaghetti Bolognese was average. Gnocchi was okay 7/10, came a bit cold, returned to be heated. Lasagna had way too much ground beef. At the end no one really was impressed. I noticed the reviews for this restaurant are really mixed, some hate it some love it. I personally would pass, unless I go back only for the pizza.
