4.5<br/ We’ve live close by to Cantina Centrale so we were super excited to be invited in to try out their authentic Italian menu. Having been in Mont Albert for over 6 years we have always been amazed at how people pack in here. Even on this Tuesday night both upstairs and down were all but full which is a very good sign. <br/ <br/ Decor was quaint and the pizza oven impressive. We sat upstairs and ordered Rosé from Italy and Italian cola (Molecola) while we perused the menu<br/ <br/ Tonight we started on super fresh and juicy marinated Sicilian green olives and aranchino al funghi with Spinach mozzarella and safron in a lovely tomato sauce. The arancini were in a delightful napoli sauces a...
The amazing atmosphere of this cozy, family friendly restaurant is only outdone by the phenomenal food that comes out of its kitchen. What place with a wood fired oven doesn’t make you feel like you’re right at home?<br/ <br/ You’ll struggle to find Italian food better than this in the area and it’s well worth the trip even if you don’t live in these parts. To start, their olives stuffed with beef and pork then deep fried will definitely hit the spot, along with a pick at their salumi grazing board, which is packed with more options than most and definitely good value for money. Who can look past an arancini ball? Theirs are definitely worth your time!<br/ <br/ Wood fired pizza with some of...
A wonderful establishment on a cul de sac set of shops in Surrey Hills.<br/ <br/ We were seated on time and promptly by our waiter The establishment was full and had it not being for our reservation we might have missed out!<br/ <br/ We ordered a pizza and pasta, two appetisers and a bottle of wine for the night. <br/ <br/ For appetisers we had the grilled zucchini and arachini. The arachni was a delight to the pallet, with the eighth balance struck between the cheese and filling and the rice. The zucchini was cooked to perfection but sadly heavily laden with garlic which lost its appeal, and not to mine the bad breath after!<br/ <br/ The spaghetti bolognese was simple yet delicious similar...
You know what I love?! A traditional Italian ristorante with old school brick walls, a wood fired oven and friendly Italian owners who live and breath food ! So much love into every dish. I mean, a wood fired oven CLEARLY means you gotta get a pizza ! Don’t disappoint Nonna! I got the prosciutto pizza with parmesan and rocket. If you ask nicely, they’ll bring your their house made chilli oil an Italians dream! The ricotta gnocchi was on point and the arancini were incredible. Don’t forget dessert, pannacotta all the way. Loved every bite

The best pizza I’ve had in the area, we tried white based pizza with mushroom, truffle, prosciutto, was divine, the truffle scent was so overwhelming but suited well with a glass of Rose I had. Also had mussel for Entre but my partner didn’t enjoy it that much, it was too fishy and too bland for me.
Great place, friendly staff. Can get pretty busy but that just shows you how popular they are. Recommend making a reservation before heading over especially in the weekends. Flavourful wood fired pizzas with a crust that's yummy! Good vegetarian options. Nice ambience.
Great pizza everyone! Consistently well cooked food. I simply love their pizzas. Wine list is fantastic too. Always met with a friendly and positive attitude when collecting take away. Such a great local gem!
Authentic pizza, with delicate base and well proportioned cheeses. Staff chatty and friendly. Will go back for sure. Slightly expensive. Was takeaway. Hope to dine in.
