I couldn't decide whether to go with 3 or 4 stars but I've given the benefit of the doubt due to the already raving reviews and just how busy this restaurant always seems to be! Waited 10 minutes for a table for 2 Sunday night and got squished inside. We of course ordered Pastizzi's for starters and pastas for mains (I loved that I could order an entree or main size for my pasta went with entree). Pastizzi's took approx. 20 minutes or so to arrive which was fairly poor considering I could SEE them sitting there (beef curry is a MUST to order). The couple of workers were smashing out take aways and weren't very attentive to us or any of their other seated customers. Mains came out awhile late...
to This place has become a local for its home style, hearty meals that are reasonably priced, amazing quality and won't leave you hungry. Ok so it doesnt look that fancy.. but the chefs wait staff really know how to spoil you which makes up for the atmos. I think they've just got everything right. My favourite dish is the pink sauce chicken risotto with a pack of parmesan cheese and pepper, YUM, YUM, YUM! ! Or the chilli bacon mushroom penne, the two to share with a friend or lover will have you coming back for more, it's affordable and satisfying for how you feel afterwards. Its a guaranteed favourite, and I hope it becomes one for you. As I have tried nearly every meal here, the only .5 I...
The pastizzi's are amazing, perfect thin flaky, crisp flaky pastry with delicious fillings on the inside, my personal favourites are the Mexi Bean and the Spinach Ricotta. Their pastas are amazing as well, I have had their ravioli before which is fantastic and on my recent trip I had Gnocchi in pesto sauce. The gnocchi was cooked perfectly and the pesto sauce was delicious I enjoyed every mouthful. The only issue with this place I have ever had was last time I was there I was served by a young girl who seemed to be disinterested in serving me, she never gave me a menu or bought over table water I had to get it myself and I ended up having to order at the counter after about half an hour of h...
This is hands down the best place for a late night supper. The restaurants namesake, pastizzi is a traditional Maltese pastry with yummy filling. They have many varieties of pastizzis from the traditional ricotta cheese to exotic flavours like curry beef. Don't stop at the savoury pastizzis. The dessert pastizzis are really yummy too! My personal favourite is chicken and mushroom pastizzi, with a dessert pastizzi of apple crumble pastizzi. Make sure you get them to heat it up in the oven. Great combo for a cold winter night. Best of all, the pastizzi will only set you back at $2.50 a pop! Great value for great food! Many people come here for the pastizzis, not knowing that this little cafe d...

The food here is excellent! Good portions and quality ingredients. We had Pastizi to start while we waited for our main course. The pastizis are large and filling on their own. The owner Lenny, has great imagination with the ingredients that go into his pastizis. He has a wide variety of fillings to choose from not just the traditional ricotta or pea filling. For the main course I had the homemade ricotta gnocchi and my friend had fettuccine with pancetta and mushrooms. I highly recommend Patizzi Cafe for your next lunch or dinner while in Sydney.
The Funny thing is that I like there pasta more than there name sake! Lol It's a small place but almost always full I can see why! The various pastizzi is like a challenge where you want to try them all! I've had also there ravioli and I'm a big eater but I was totally full after having there main size! It's also open til late,if you haven't been or want to try something different I highly recommend this place
Have never eaten in here. Have always bought the frozen packs for the freezer as an option for those times one has nothing else. However, whenever I do pass by, I would get some fresh ones. Mainly apple pastizzi's. Ricotta is a favourite. Chicken mushroom come close. Just love the crunchiness of the pastry. Have recently discovered their cinnamon scrolls on offer. Need to go back and dine in one day.
Pretty decent food. The Pastizzi's make this place a bit different from the run of the mill Italian place. The staff were really busy and did their best to fit us in unlike some of the places on King St. I thought the seafood marinara pasta was quite good. Plenty of seafood and no filler..its only a mile or two from the seafood market. Sydney is more of a seafood town than a meat town

The pastizzi are delicious! I had the spinach and ricotta, and a chicken bacon leek. They don't scrimp on fillings and the pasty is perfect. The ricotta konnoli is definitely worth getting too. Will be going back there to sample more next time I'm in Newtown
