Brilliant Italian food and excellent service. We even had quite a few famous V8 supercar drivers dining there the same night. More

Absolutely excellent food. Great prices. Good portions. Well priced drinks. Would dine regularly if I could. A credit to the owners. Could not find a fault. More

Where to begin? Greeted with 'just for your information, we don't split the bill' really set the tone for the evening - you're only being asked to split a restaurant bill, not the atom. FOH service could not be complained about, as it was almost non-existent. No drinks service, and when I asked for a bottle of wine, was asked... More

Hidden bacon cut offs in the lasagna, small sized meals and inattentive staff give this tacky launceston eatery the thumbs down. Avoid at every opportunity! More

Have been to La Cantina a few times over the past 5 years, but this was the first time after ordering a pasta dish and asking for Parmesan cheese, that we were told it would cost $2 extra, this was amazing, never before have we been anywhere in the world, that charges for parmesan cheese with a dish that requires...

We were a little hesitant to go after reading a recent review but were glad we went anyway. This is a BYO restaurant (corkage $5) which had good service. We had a calamari dish and BBQ chicken pizza and both were very good. The ambiance was also relaxing. There was a grumpy looking old man but so what. He minded... More
