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.

We are Mozzafiato Thursday night regulars!

Feb 2022 • none

My partner and I are Mozzafiato regulars and absolutely love eating here every Thursday - which is 2 for 1 pizza night! The pizza's are delicious, I love the pizza base; they are large pizza's which we occasionally get all the way though, otherwise we often have leftovers to take home for lunch the next day. We have tried nearly all the pizza varieties and cycle through them each week as they are all so good - my particular favourites are the Elite beef pizza and the seafood pizza. We have also eaten off the main menu before which was also delicious and a little bit more fine dining style. Their desserts are also very yummy. The service is great and the staff super friendly - Mozzafiato is a hidden gem in Carrara, which as a suburb doesn't really have as many options for dining/eating out, so if you have been looking for somewhere to go that is local with a great, atmosphere away from city noise and hustle bustle, then I recommend booking for dinner at Mozzafiato at Elite in Carrara. Sammii :D

Excellent Dining Experience

Apr 2021 • none

We were greeted warmly from the outset and the evening continued in this vein for its entirety. The food was diligently prepared under the guidance of Head Chef Marco. Every dish we tried we enjoyed immensely with no let down in any course. Wine pairing suggested by Kane was well suited to the dishes and we were entertained all evening. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a great meal.

Fantastic Evening

Jan 2023 • friends

It’s a quite place inside a sports resort(?). Came here for the reviews and did not disappoint. Very good value for money with absolutely stunning food. Waitresses are all very friendly. We had salmon for the fish of the day and it was cooked just on point. for entrée we had salad and grilled octopus, the salad is of a very big portion with fresh vegetables and the octopus was really tender. Desserts we had tiramisu and panna cotta, they are both beautiful and delicious. Left the restaurant with a very full stomach. 60aud for a set of 3 course meal is very good price for such high quality.

A favourite dining destination. Delicious food, amazing service! Go there, now! You won't regret it.

Dec 2021 • family

I absolutely recommend this restaurant to everyone I know. The gnocchi is melt in your mouth amazing, and so are the appetisers. I recently introduced my Dad and brothers to Mozzafiato and it's their new favourite place to dine out too, we have been here twice in the last two months for special occasions. The pork belly is also melt in your mouth delicious and the presentation of all the dishes is just beautiful. The pizza is also quite tasty. The chef really takes pride in every meal and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended,

Outstanding food and great service

Feb 2023 • couples

All aspects of dining were world class. The staff were friendly and welcoming, not pushy to get you to order quickly and would answer any questions you had. The 3 course set menu is unreal value considering the exceptional taste and presentation each course provided. My wife and I hadn’t even finished the Entree and were discussing when we’ll be back. Beautiful, quiet setting for any occasion - big or small.

I dined here this week and had an exceptional experience. Daniel was attentive and provided excellent recommendations. The bruschetta was a perfect beginning, followed with vegetarian gnocchi that melted in my mouth. Great wines to choose from too!! Please check this place out. You will not be disappointed!

Stunning Dining Experience at Elite

Apr 2022 • friends

Spent an evening at Mozzafiato Restaurant in Carrara and what an experience it was. Pizza was arguably one of the best I've had on the coast and staff at the venue were extremely friendly. A gentleman called Kayne that served me had excellent knowledge of wines and went above above and beyond in ensuring that my dining experience was easy and enjoyable. Thank you Mozzafiato will definitely be back.

I came along with my family last night for the very first time and we had the absolute best experience! Everything we ordered from entree to dessert was absolutely delicious, every waitress was so helpful and friendly, the restaurant layout and decor was beautiful and the chef, Marco, even popped over to welcome us after one of the waitresses must have told him it was our first visit, he was so sweet we had a great chat and we will definitely be making this our regular go to restaurant Thanks so much to all of the staff for making our night so memorable, I’ve been raving to friends and family about it all day today!!!

The food and service was fantastic! Had a 3 course meal (entree, main and dessert) for $65! We had all Italian food and it was absolutely exceptional! The ladies serving the table were awesome. The food was brought out promptly but not too fast where you couldn’t enjoy the experience.

We visited this restaurant after hearing positive recommendations. It did not let us down! Four of us attended Friday night, given the option of dining inside or on a deck overlooking a beautiful lit up pool and gardens, we chose outside! Staff, especially Mitch, we’re attentive and friendly. The food, flawless and sophisticated!! The Seafood Squid Ink Fettuccine , absolutely exquisite, each piece of seafood perfectly cooked, as was the pasta! Everyones meal was perfect. The Ribs, and the Lamb dish delicious! This will definitely be a regular for us, being very conveniently located. We’ll be back! ❣️

If you are reading this review and considering to make a booking ,do it you won't be disappointed . My sister had the lamb and I ordered the seafood ink fettucine , it was a "regal'' . My dish was full of flavors and beautifully cooked ! I will have to come back for the creme brulee as I had no room left for dessert . The service provided was great and very welcoming ! ( special mention to Tamara and Paule that looked after us) The chef Marco was very approachable and was very pleased to receive our feedback after he had finished the service . I strongly recommend , thank you guys . Marion

I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough!!! Every time we visit we are welcomed as though we are part of their family and the food never disappoints. There's something for everyone and the atmosphere is relaxed but decadent at the same time. Just LOVE it. Go and see for yourself...you'll love it too.

I was blown away from eating at Mozzafiato. The food was absolutely amazing. My partner and I had the chicken and the lamb and I haven’t had such a good meat dish in a long time. You can tell the chef puts so much care and effort into every meal. Service was also excellent. Couldn’t recommend this restaurant more! A hidden gem.
