• Italian • Terrigal

Il Toscano means “The Tuscan”, and is a perfect representation of everything I am, and all that I love about my home land in Italy. My name’s Matteo – head pasta maker, chef and owner of il Toscano. I was born and raised in the countryside of Tuscany, and although I’ve now lived in Australia for over 6 years, my passion for all things Italian has never been stronger. Nor has my passion for sharing it with Australia and the Central Coast. I noticed that while there are a lot of outlets serving Italian food up here, they’re largely not hitting the mark when it comes to quality, authenticity and value for money. My wife Laura and I became so tired of being disappointed every time we ordered food out, that we decided to take matters into our own hands.

We booked a table for 4 at Thaiger Temple and were happy to be seated outside as it was a very warm evening. The traffic noise was a little tricky at times, but otherwise fine. Our wait staff were fabulous, the first lovely young lady giving us lots of menu suggestions which were excellent (duck curry, pork with chilli and basil, beef mussaman). We chose entrees of money bags and curry puffs which were fine but a little over-fried. The wine list is good without being a novel and not hellishly overpriced. At $50pp (including a 10% tip) for 2 entrees, 3 mains, rice and a bottle of white, it was very reasonable on the wallet. A definite repeat visit coming up, and once again, can't rave enough about the service - happy, friendly staff who know their menu.
