Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Enjoyed a good dinner here with the family. We booked a week ahead of time and rang to change numbers 3 days before. That message hadn’t been relayed so communication is poor. Pizza was good but I agree with previous review regarding the smashed shells...in marinara which was a pity. They also rushed us out after only 1 1/2 hrs (there was no time limit mentioned at time of booking) even though there were plenty of spare tables. We were seated next to the kitchen and would have preferred to be in the more comfortable and cosy space near the windows but they weren’t using that unfortunately.More

We came here for dinner recently, there were lots of areas where they didn't hit the mark. The most disappointing part for me, ordering the seafood pasta, was that the clam shell was shattered. This meant there were sharp shards of shell and a sandy...texture of broken shell throughout my dish and I couldn't finish it or really focus on my companion (the dish was otherwise delicious). Usually I hate when staff at restaurants bother you during a meal, but no one came to check in with us. I did try to get staff attention several times with no luck. Generally across the board, the other food was okay. Other things to note which meant they didnt hit the mark include, I was given the wrong wine, the service wasn't great and the environment overall wasn't great. (We were sat next to a freezer and right in front of the pizza oven so we were very hot with random blasts of cold.) I wouldn't recommend unfortunately.More

We hade dinner at Trecento on 11 november 2022. Food was good and service friendly. Problems began when paying: Trecento made us pay a bill of another table, where a family consumed food for an amount three times as high as ours. Trecento realized their...own mistake soon after and said they’d refund us. We then tried for weeks to get refunded and mailed with Trecento over and over again until we now came to the conclusion that we will probably never get our money back. So please be cautious when it comes to payment and make sure Trecento does not make you pay for another table and for food you did not consume!More

This is a small restaurant and I would recommend booking. Service was exceptional and food arrived extremely fast. Pasta and pizzas were enjoyed by our group of 8. My only disappointment was the tonic in our gin was flat. However, we did not bring it...to the staffs attention.More

Went with family for birthday and overall was a pleasant experience. Only down side was the antipasto platter which basically consisted of copious amounts of pepperoni which looked like your basic supermarket variety, stacks of rocket with some squiggly yellow stuff squeezed on it, a...small amount of prosciutto, some packet ham, a few olives and pickled capsicum. Had one ball of boccocini cheese and what looked like a blob of ricotta. At $29 a head this was a massive rip off. I advised the waitress that I did not think much of their Italian antipasto but she assured me that it was the traditional Italian way. Having been born in Italy and travelled there on a number of occassions I've never come across such a poor excuse for an antipasto. She did however take $20 off the bill so go figure Rest of the meal was appetising and reasonably priced. I had the risotto and would highly recommend it. Other party members had the Vongole and one had the ragu, both satisfactory, washed down by a couple of bottles of organic Chianti. Great evening except for the antipasto.More

We ordered takeaway from Trecento for dinner. It was underwhelming. All of the pizza was very bready and light on for flavour and toppings. It wasn't bad, just not particularly interesting. The carbonara was fine, but quite a small serve, and not as creamy as...we've had elsewhere. There was only a very token amount of bacon in it. The rocket salad was very plain, and the calamari was flavourless to the point of inedible. We definitely won't go back - there are far better Italian offerings in CanberraMore

Trecento's pizzas are authentic, delicious and clearly made with very high quality ingredients. BUT .... as good as the pizzas are, the salads, sides and other menus items might be even better, The potatoes are amazing, the salads are straightforward but superbly balanced. This is...a restaurant that knows how to prepare Italian food, even in the midst of a COVID lockdown.More

I will say the food is very good, but only if they actually decide to follow through on your booking. Of the three times I’ve booked at trecento, twice the booking system has failed. One time they turned us away at the door saying they...had accidentally overbooked and didn’t have room for us, despite us booking about two weeks in advance. And recently I was called the day of the booking saying they had overbooked and we would have to sit outside - on a freezing winter night in Canberra. So do be careful if you’re booking for a special event like I was, maybe call a couple of times to check on your booking.More

A disappointing experienve overall, some of the menu at Trecento was tasty, the pizzas were definitely the standout relative to the pastas but it simply isn't enough to make up for the lack of service and the long wait times for every dish.
