What can I say, they're still the same very yummy food that I remember. Oooohhh that creamy pasta is to die for LOL. The seafood pizza is delicious too. A bit salty for my liking but I kinda expect it since it has anchovies. Lol Regarding customer service, it's just ok. The first time we came the staffs on duty were all cheerful and welcoming. On our recent visit customer service was just blah. So it really depends on who's working that time. The only thing I'm not fond of is the price LOL. Like we ordered just one carbonara (good for 2) and small pizza (good for 2 as well)... and 1 coke haha --- and we paid like 40 plus aud. Oh well, sometimes you have to pay the price for a really good meal. 4.5 star

Ok. Great place overall. And compared to most of the restaurants in this area it's pretty good. But…read moreas you'll see by the picture, even though the chef is supposedly 100% Italian there is no way that this meal was a veal saltimbocca. The chef was pretty adamant that she would not do a lot of changes, the staff, the atmosphere, and the wine was great, and I highly recommend it for that, but not sure about the other meals but this meal was nowhere near our traditional, Italian or Sicilian style dish. Considering the other reviews on other apps, I would definitely recommend this place over anything else in the area. I think the other traditional dishes are much better as I saw them come out to the guest. But this was so far off traditional anything that it makes me question the chef.

We had to eat at Beach Burrito across the road even though we were prepared for an evening of proper dining. Extremely poor service.

This is a small little cafe located on Jetty Road (closer to the Brighton Road end). I had never…read morebeen here before until yesterday when my friend told me she had the best foccacia from here. We met there for lunch and we were greeted by two staff from behind the counter. They were very warm, smiley and welcoming. The lady handed us menus and offered us to take a seat - inside or outside. (Most of the tables were for about 2-4 people, so I wouldn't recommend large groups coming here.) We ordered at the counter and they brang our lunch to our tables once it was freshly made. I chose a smoked salmon foccacia with capers, lettuce, spanish onions and fresh dill mayo - sounds good hey!? It was! My only criticism is that there was a bit too much bread, but I find this the case with most foccacias any where. Pasta Gourmet's menu includes pasta (shock!!!), pizza, curry, burgers, sandwiches, wraps, chicken schnitzel, a large breakfast menu, cakes, and of course tea, coffee and cold drinks. Oh, and one last thing, everything is under $15!!!

The pies were full of meat and gravy, and had a really nice flavour and texture. The base was nice and firm, and the tops were all flakey. Perfect with a big dab of tomato sauce.

The curry tasted watered down, the duck was dry and I'm sure was cooked the previous day only to be reheated and fried to crisp the skin. Marinara pasta was too salty and used imported sea food. Most mains are in the $30 range and wouldn't pass even if we're half price. Avoid.

Both times the restaurants we picked were closed. So we ended up eating at another restaurant. So today we chose Lido. When we got there, there's only one couple dinning in there. We were served water as soon as we had taken a seat. Pretty good. Proceeded to order two mains - Pork belly and lamb chop. The place is not packed but I think we waited 30 mins for the food. Well, at least whrn the food came, it's not bad. The lamb is medium cooked. The meat is tender and juicy, mixed with red wine sauce and it's really a delight. However I do not like the rice and the vegetables that came with it. The rice is slightly dry, probably long grain. And the vegetable is just 5 pieces of grilled pineapples which I don't like. there's also a tiny problem of the serving size.... no... big problem... it's not exactly filling enough. :( The Pork belly has a smoky taste to it, while the skin is a crispy, it's a bit hard too. The meat is soft and chewy, really nice. Overall, I like the service given. We were being checked upon twice by the waiting stuff for the quality of the food served. The food is fine too. A pity, the waiting time is slightly long, and the serving size is small. Now the last part. After dinner. .. the first downpour for the week! Rain rain rain. It looks like it's only going to get heavier .. Soaking wet and couldn't run after a meal... it does made me wonder. . Is it worth the effort to eat out there tonight? -_-'

We understand mistakes happen but when I brought the plate back up to the bar a few employees pretended I wasn't there until the poor gal who sold it to me returned. She was very nice and apologetic but her response was "would you like another one or just a refund". In my opinion she should have compensated the whole meal considering I have been in hospital for salmonella years ago. I went back up and expressed my thoughts on her response and she said she would talk to her manager but it was never addressed until my wife was nearly done her meal and the same gal offered her a drink as if a soda or something should compensate. My wife respectfully declined and I let the gal know in advance there would be a review with aforementioned. The sad part about it all was that the manager pretended to arrange tables nearby so he could watch but didn't have the moral courage to approach our table to address the issue!!The toilets were also too dirty considering the COVID times.
