I visited Lavita on a Tuesday night and was surprised to see it was pretty busy, but after experiencing the food and friendly service, I could understand why! This little suburban stop in delivers the goods - I ordered Gnocchi Salsicce and my buddy ordered Penne La Vita and both were super tasty - and the entree serves were huge! They were generous with the Parmesan - a plus in my books, and my dish had plenty of kick - they didn't list 'chilli' as an ingredient just to look fancy! The staff were so friendly and the prices were good! I think this may become our Tuesday night 'catch up' restaurant - and my waistline will hate me for it!

So after reading lots of reviews and residing so close I thought I'd drop by and get a take away…read morepizza. When approached a nice older gentlemen asked how I can help and I said I'd like a take away pizza please. He said only if it's quick. Anyway I paid and said I reside close how long will it take. 20 minutes Go back 20 minutes later. After 15 minutes I ask to be told the slip said 9:45. I said I'm not waiting another 10 minutes. Lucky the pizza just came out. Communication not soo good on the wait and ticketing! Service is average. Nice Reno from the old Barnacle bills but definitely doesn't have that European charm with the staff. I did have 15 minutes to observe. Would love to see more smiley warm faces and staff talking to customers. I know we all like to go home on time, but just don't let it show! Pizza- just see the photo! $18 pizza lacked flavour. I know some places don't add tomotao, but then you need an awesome Tomato base sauce. Decor is fun, the place looks young and fresh and vibrant and I do like the simple menu. I'll give it one more go and order a different pizza next time!

The thing is that I found that their pizzas were actually pretty pricey, and they were also not as stiff as the regular pizzas that I tend to get, which honestly was a little disappointing. Look, it wasn't a bad place, and the pizza was nice. Also, the service was good, it was just a little over priced, and the pizzas not quite the style that I like.

Napoli pizza is so fantastic that I kick myself for not going there sooner. It was a hot tip from a…read morefriend around Australia Day this year that I first wrapped my lips around their delectable pizza. I heard that the pizza chef here used to chef at Ettica which is good but this is better. Their dough is soft and bready and very tasty. They are generous with their toppings but know how much their base can handle. Their pasta is also very good The garlic bread the best. Smoky and charred. I can also say that their desserts are wonderful having tried almost all of them.

On the otherhand, food came out pretty quick. Servers do come around and clean tables but they never clean the chairs so they are often covered with crumbs. I had gnocchi pesto, which turned out to be really good. I did not taste the pesto so much, but the cheese they use on top ie excellent, and the sauce is creamy but not too rich or salty. My sister had chicken avo sand with brioche. The chicken was bit dry but the bread was crispy and awesome. Fresh watermelon juice was tasty and so was chai latte. One thing I did not care for about this place was everything came out kinda lukewarm....my pasta, my chai latte, and even my sister's juice! lol They have $10 pasta night on Thursday.

As I live in the area I only ever go to Zeea's for coffee so I can't comment on the food. The coffee though is consistently very good. At $5.50 for a medium soy it is on the pricier side of cafes. You do get a little wafer biscuit which is always a nice treat!

Not that I have a problem with cute scooters, I just assumed it'd be over-priced and only serve rocket and pumpkin wraps and peppermint tea. I was wrong. I wildly underestimated Modinetti. I think this is the best place I've eaten in ages! Modinetti does breakfast and lunch - good for the quick stop or a lazier magazine reading morning. The atmosphere inside is pleasant and laid-back and I was pleasantly surprised to find out there was a nice shady outdoor seating area out the back. The inside area is really lovely without being too over-considered. The staff are friendly but not forced. There is a nice buzz in the place - I overheard lots of friendly gossip and chitter chatter. Now for my favourite part - the menu. It's all Casalinga Italian - 'casalinga' meaning domestic or homemade. The dishes are all fairly basic but delicious - simple combinations of flavours that you wouldn't get at many Italian restaurants. There is a range of vegan and gluten free options. Everything is incredibly cheap - $6 for a medium sized soup or a breakfast dish or a little pizza or a salad. $7 for a focaccia. This morning I had the Brodo - a clear broth with chicken parmesan meatballs. It was light and refreshing, with a light sprinkle of herbs and a crusty piece of sourdough toasted with olive oil. Cracked pepper and parmesan on top. The perfect summer lunch. I can't wait to come back here, will have to try and wake early enough for breakfast. My only criticism is that I wish it were open on Sunday mornings!
