The best in town from the rest in town. The authentic four cheese pizza, "The" signature, artichoke lasagna, to recommend few. The owner literally Weigh, Parmigiano, cut to be exact ( in other words not to give you less, to maintain quality). Gem if it's own, that's Gema!!

Food is typical Italian from the North, food is always fabulous and highly recommend this venue for birthday lunches or dinners, for meals to share and for wonderful Italian food for any occasion. They also make their own Gelato and sell Italian pasta and other Italian delicacies (cheeses, cold meats, biscuits etc.).

I tried to find out if they had any gluten free options and the manager started shouting at me in Italian. If I could give it zero stars I would.

Good food.... we enjoyed the Spaghetti Seafood al Cartoccio. Generous portions and very delicious ????????

After our hard lock downs that has decimated the restaurant and hospitality industry, I'm flabbergasted that this place has survived.
It is certainly NOT for the quality of food or service levels. Definitely NOT value for your hard earned money.
Stay Away IF you have an egg allergy or vegetarian. All pizza and pasta has egg. Only option is Melanzane ...unfortunately..NO..DEFINITELY NO Parmigiana cheese in their stingy version. R135 for a starter portion and a regular 330ml beer.
Eventually I didn't finish the dish because it was so badly cooked.
I can definitely cook a much better version...with my eyes closed.
I'll NEVER recommend and avoid worse that the plague...Highly Disappointing

A real genuine gem of an Italian place. It’s our absolute favourite. This family-owned restaurant services the Italian community with delicious meals made from excellent, imported Italian ingredients. Real value for money. There are so many dishes we love there including seafood pasta cartoccio, polenta with porcini and Gorgonzola, not to mention their pizze. Today we feasted on fresh artichoke lasagna. Superb.
