I was looking forward to this restaurant.? we were a party from above and had a private room in the garage / cellar. there was a n stranger space, very “rustic” but there were more feenlichter who softened the effect. we ordered beer and. a couple of bottles prosecco that took a while to come, but that's okay. the one waiter was young, but pleasant. it took age groups to eat and serve drinks as he had to go up and down to the main restaurant all the time. the first mouse came, tiny plates of the charcuterie with a piece of brot each. very average cold meat (more super market package as authentic Italian). it followed a escape of ravioli squares in each serving, it was ok, but not excellent....

So I know there’s a tonne of bad reviews for restaurants and people tend to ignore it. I did for pasta Emilia as well, as the place looked good. However, our experience was shocking. I never leave reviews but for this I feel like people...should be warned. When the pasta was first brought out, it was absolutely hard. We spoke to the waitress who seemed pissed when we commented on it (which to be honest, we feel like we should since we are paying for this meal). When we got our pasta back, it was a plate of boiled pasta and all the truffle cream sauce (which is why we chose the dish) was gone. When we asked about the sauce, we then received extremely watered down sauce as a replacement. We co...
After an enjoyable first visit, we returned to Pasta Emilia for valentines dinner pp). What a let down. It was so disorganised, took us reminding the waiters multiple times to bring out many courses. Main meal was veal and it was terribly tough and...not enjoyable at all. They forgot our wine and we had to follow up twice for it. They forgot to bring out our dessert. They overcharged us for wine we didn't order or receive. So many things went wrong along the way. The couple next to us received undercooked meal. Our pasta was served cold (when it was meant to be served hot)We sent them an email with our feedback and we were completely ignored which is so disappointing. For such an expensive m...
This place makes fresh pasta you can also buy to take home. Most of the menu is made of pasta dishes. Pasta is ok, it is not hand-made, but made with machines, but it is of better quality of the one yiu can buy at...the supermarket. We received it a bit uncooked, but the sauce was great for both of the dishes. We were disappointed by the entrée (a small portion of salumi with no bread) and the noisiness of the place. At the end we asked for the dessert menu and they never brought it to us. The wine list is also a problem: the prices are just too high, if you don't know the wine you can be disappointed to pay so much for an average wine (like it happened to us). For two dishes of pasta, a sha... Book a table now
My first visit to this restaurant was not great - it seemed like they were understaffed and struggling, but everyone was trying their best. Despite this, I decided to give them another chance and I'm glad I did. This Italian restaurant has quickly become my favorite, as it is filled with family and love. Anna, the owner, greeted me and her daughter poured my wine while telling me her son was in the kitchen. The staff was kind and made an effort to ensure all guests were happy. Having worked in the food industry myself, I understand that mistakes happen, but the team at this restaurant worked together to provide a great experience. I am now a regular customer and look forward to many more vis...
My husband and I dined at this restaurant last Friday evening July. Very sad to say it was an unsuccessfull night. The reason we travelled from Avalon Beach was to eat fresh pasta., what we got was undercooked pasta, no not al dente, it...was undercooked. Not a cheap place to eat. The salad waS a slap dash mix of a few nuts and old rocket. We were seated outside the kitchen when the whole place was empty however were moved after asking. I will not be recommending this place to anyone.
the meal was very good and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. the pasta marinara delicious, like the other main courses. we had waiter on people, so confusion with the service. the bill was divided and paid the half each wth a credit card, tipp included. we were then charged a credit fee on the tipp. When I interviewed the owner, I guess, she said, the machine will make them automatic. no, the restaurant introduces the machine to add the fee.
Dinner with the girls. What an amazing place to visit. The atmosphere is great and friendly. We ordered the Emilian Style Cured Meats with bread, as a starter. Mains Strozzapreti Beef Ragu, duck tortellini, Pumpkin Kale Tortelli. Wine. We had a wonderful night with...lovely staff and delicious food. We will definitely return. Book a table now
Pasta Emilia is a stunning restaurant that reminds me of my beloved Italy. The food is amazing, organic, and homemade. I celebrated my birthday there and they opened on Monday just for me, providing a private space and excellent service. It is truly the best Italian restaurant.
This is the best Italian pasta I have ever had in Sydney. It is clearly handmade and the flavors are very authentic and true to Italian cuisine.
