House made potato gnocchi is the best!! Had it for several times and never disappoint. However my friend used to love gnocchi with creamy pesto sauce, it’s been taken off from new menu. Instead of pesto sauce, they use gorganzola. We’re not the fan of blue cheese though!! Braised beef cheek is very tender, but the sauce is not my favorite. Chilli baby optus with casareccia is amazing!! Cooked perfectly casareccia and chilli gives it a good kick!! Love it
Walked in without booking and got served very quickly. Beautiful tasty pasta and pizza. Highly recommend the gnocchi and chocolate mousse as dessert.
Some of the best Gnocchi and Lamb shoulder I've ever had. Fantastic friendly service, fairly priced, in a warm modern setting.
Walked in for lunch and had a lovely meal. Beef cheek gnocchi was particularly brilliant but pizza didn’t disappoint either. Thumbs up.
Make sure to get a reservation early! I've tried to eat here twice with no luck (and they're kind of snobby about it) but I'm sure the food is excellent if you can ever manage to get a table. The second time I tried to eat here, they had at least a half dozen empty tables and it was 90 minutes before closing and they told us they were all booked up mmhmm
Another fine meal in Wanaka. You typically need a reservation here so we made one the day before. We had 4 courses including squid and white beans, bruschetta, and polenta fries as starters. All were delicious and nice size portions - you could split one between two people. The house salads are large and delicious - the pickled onions are a nice touch. For our mains we had veggie gnocchi (they were light pillows that melt in your mouth), lamb papardelle (great flavor and perfectly cooked) and a white pizza. It was more food than we should have ordered and we finished all of itafter a good day of hiking. The cannoli for dessert was yummy with cream filling classically made from marscapone. Service was good. One woman was spectacular serving as hostess, bartender and food expediter. The meal timing was also well executed.
Excellent itallian, had the pepperoni pizza very delicious. The waitress was very lovely and helped cater for someone in our group that was vegan. Pricey but on point.
Great food, staff and atmosphere. Catered for a vegan meal and it was pretty good. Pricy but worth it.
Great meal! Wonderful service! Our waitress Victoria was incredible! The food was unique and tasty. A couple of stand out items were the polenta fries and the homemade gnocchi. Do yourself a favor and eat here. Absolutely recommended!
Loved their gnocchi! Not just a boring dish with tomato sauce but a real creation! Highly recommended, don't forget to book in advance, they're always full!
