   This was a quiet corner of the city to have lunch - pizza with lamb was incredibly tasty and wood fired base fine to perfection. A great range of cocktails and Pino Grigio by the glass was a decent drop. Friendly service and a birthday tiramisu!

   We were welcomed by the owner, which was lovely. There was a buzz to the atmosphere with a few birthday celebrations, date nights, and family/ friends gatherings. Food was ample & delicious. We had market fish and the portion was impressive. The only down side, which is not terrible, is the sparkling water - on tap, is charged per bottle and the house wine was pricier than expected.

   My father came up from Melbourne this week to visit and wanted to try Italian cuisine here. Out of all the Italian restaurants we decided on this place. First off, you know the restaurant has "old school" ettique when the head chef meets and greets customers at the front. Obviously runs a tight ship in the back-of-house. The ambiance is warm, cosy and inviting. The wine list is good with a decent selection, from entrees, antipasti to mains is all quality. In my opinion they should change up the ragu from mince to slow cooked beef cheek but nevertheless the experience was something my father wouldn't forget he had a wonderful night, the staff are courteous and lovely. We did go early in the week on a Tuesday night and it was busy. The noise level was more than you'd expect on a Tuesday but quite honestly you quickly get used to it on the simple fact everyone there is having a wonderful experience there. Anyway I'm just glad my father had a wonderful experience there and if he ever comes back to Brisbane I'd be sure to bring him back.

   Outstanding in every way. Impeccable Italian food & service in an extremely charming setting. Angelo conducting proceedings as a true master of hospitality. One must doubt if a better version of Happy Birthday exists in the Brisbane culinary scene. Always our go to Italian whilst in town. 10/10 as usual bravo.

    The setting had a beautiful ambiance which is what originally attracted me to the place . The food was nice although I do think expensive for what it was in comparison to other nice Italian restaurants I have visited before . I ordered the veal as often not found on too many menus now days and was a treat to myself - it was nice but quite a large meal and probably why expensive but too big for me to eat it all. When asked if I could get a container to take remaining home the waitress misunderstood and had it thrown out which was very disappointing particularly given it was a $70 meal and half of it was still on the plate - so wasn’t impressed with their mistake at my expense! Other guests said their meals were lovely and no complaints and plentiful . Otherwise service was good besides the one hiccup and lovely how they make those celebrating a birthday feel special with their singing.
