A positive discovery, this small restaurant! The wood fired pizza was quite good. The entree was also good and big enough quantities overall. Nice ambience with a soft music background (it is a small place so it gets occasionally loud though). Very reasonable prices and the service is friendly but a bit busy. A very pleasant experience overall! More

Anywhere which offers customers the refinement of a tablecloth warrants our consideration and our reasoning was duly confirmed by a meal which met all our priorities.

Really enjoyed this little restaurant - we were influenced by previous Trip Advisor reviews and were not disappointed! The chicken risotto was superb - creamy and garlicky - and the spaghetti bolognaise delicious! The staff were friendly and the decor very pleasant. Highly recommended! More

Just finished our meal and I am full to the brim. Not a good time to talk about food but the veal and chicken dishes were excellent. Friendly service to boot. Now off to the Spiegeltent in nearby Hyde Park for Sydney Festival entertainment when I would prefer to crash on the bed. More

We love Trovata! We have visited several times & love it! The wood fired pizza bread on the weekends is impressive! The real star is their chicken risotto!! Love it! Has surpassed all others for this dish! Mouth-wateringly good! More

I chose the Moroccan Beef Risotto and though all other ingredients were fine, the cubes of Moroccan beef were as tough as old boots. My colleagues enjoyed the Penne Putanesca and the Special Spagetti so mine was the only disappointment, hence the three stars. More
