I have been here a few times, and as tempted as I am to try something different I usually choose the same thing on the menu. The fish in creamy garlic sauce. I'm never disappointed and the portion is large enough that often the salad or fries are still on the plate at the end of the meal. THe only... More

This place was a few doors up from our hotel and in our jet-lagged state, was ideal for some simple but lovely meal

Looking for something a bit different so we decided to go Italian. Great choice. A nice authentic Italian restaurant. Felt like we could have been in Italy. The food was excellent in every respect. I love lasagna and thought my meal was one of the best I've had, even compared to many meals we have had in Italy. The salads... More

If you have a big or small group of big eaters that love fabulous food with epic taste that's fresh then this is the place to go. 3 Big boys left our last meal complaining that they ate to much..but couldn't eat it all lol. Love this restaurant.

After a couple of days in Auckland the family was all Asian- and Mexican-ed out so we decided to look for something different to eat with a friend - my wife suggested Italian, and Google suggested A Little Italy which was just around the corner. Even though it was a smaller place our group of five was welcomed warmly and... More

We thought this looked good when we walked in off the street, but were disappointed when we dined here. The food was way overpriced considering that it was very ordinary food, and was not authentic Italian. There was no atmopshere, and staff hovered near the tables, which was a bit intimidating. Far better places to eat out at, which are... More

Lovely little place open quite late with awesome atmosphere. Music is great and authentic Italian feel adds to dining experience. Wine list could have been better as could vegetarian options but the pizza I bought was lovely, cheesy, lots of toppings. Definitely value for money.

We just happened upon this place. Thought it looked ok. Got the antipasto to start- felt like I was eating very cheap ingredients and processed meats drowning in vinegar. I got a pizza which had a stodgy and wooden base. Plenty of cheese on it but that was its only redeeming factor. My wife got fish with a tomatoe sauce... More

Great place tucked away in the middle of the city . Adv : garlic bread pretty much the size of small pizza $8. Chicken pasta $25, pizza$25. Huge servings. I am a big eater and left me more than satisfied. Served very quickly about 10min. In and out 40min. Reminds me very much of nandos in Australia in terms of... More
