Wow $15 for a couple of fried prawns and $10 for a dessert. The special turned out to be a rip off in the end. Each were about $5 over priced. The steak was just ok, I won't bother coming here again. The sushi and Thai places next door are much better value and taste nicer.

FOOD Shared an entree of sea scallops (seared wild north Atlantic sea scallops with cauliflower puree, almond crunch and herbed bellini - $22). These were absolutely lovely. I liked the almond crunch at the bottom of the scallop. Added some extra carby goodness. The cauliflower puree actually tasted more like a mashed potato as well. A great starting dish. http://www.yelp.com.au/biz_photos/QE6DLVIYmz0XIgdW-xuWOQ?select=ZyAM-2kE0NI4t9uMH1C-Ig We went with a surf and turf combo for the mains. Zuppa Di Pesce (hot pot of king prawns, calamari, fillet of fish, black mussels and balmain bug in a napolatan sauce with a hint of chili servied with linguine pasta - $38) and the Lamb Loin (rosemary and garlic marinated lamb loin on a fetta and roasted vegetable terrine and glaxed with a rosemary infused jus - $36). http://www.yelp.com.au/biz_photos/QE6DLVIYmz0XIgdW-xuWOQ?select=m1MboT0_0EBtCyEXaaIZ7g#m1MboT0_0EBtCyEXaaIZ7g http://www.yelp.com.au/biz_photos/QE6DLVIYmz0XIgdW-xuWOQ?select=ZVHfCsNN0rwpMoc6vZWivA#ZVHfCsNN0rwpMoc6vZWivA I'm usually a very indecisive person but the Zuppa Di Pesce immediately stood out to me. A very full on dish that would leave anyone stuffed. There was a very generous portion of seafood sitting on a base of linguine. If anything I think I would have wanted the 'hint of chili' to have been a bit more than just a hint to add a bit of power to the dish. The lamb was was nicely cooked and soft. However I wasn't a fan of the terrine. It was a strange mix with the lamb. SERVICE When I handed over the credit card the waiter said "thank you senor". ??? Either I have a hearing problem or he was smart enough to know that it wasn't my name on the credit card. Friendly waitstaff who thanked us for coming with their thick Italian accents in unison when we left. OVERALL Nice place, nice vibe, nice food.

A Taste of Tuscany, on Pennant Hills road in Carlingford. It saves some travel time to Italy!…read more If you're a local it's a handy little restaurant that does some good Italian cuisine. There's ample room to grab a seat inside although there is also a take-away and home delivery option. When in Rome, or in this case Tuscany or to be more specific Carlingford, we always seem to do what the Italians do and over order. A pizza (or two) to share between everyone, an entree each, a main of pasta each, a dessert each(the tirimasu seems to be the most popular option) and a coffee to help digest it down. And of course a glass of red that lingers throughout the night. No you won't think you're in Tuscany but it might give you a taste. Maybe?

They have a wood-fired oven and they make great pizzas, they love kids (although a lot of the customers don't) and they allow some byo. They also service very tasty meals - Italian based, lots of cream sauces. They have a lot of space and can hold about 150 people - in the restaurant and function space combined. They deliver, always important for a pizza place but on the weekend the service is a little slow because they are so busy. Great Pizza's!!!!

We both had the veal marsala which wasn't very adventurous of us but we cleared the plates. We had desserts and a glass of wine each and it came to about $70 if I am not mistaken. Very good value. Another aquaintance was there and they were extolling the virtues of the food as well. A good night was had by all. Amanda came and spoke to us, as she did with most people. It makes you feel connected somehow to the restaurant when they take the time to do that.

Lovely girl that managed to fit us in was very understanding and actually genuinely wanted help and make sure we were happy. 5 stars just for her help! As for the food, fresh homemade pasta is the first thing I noticed. Had the bosciola and it was nice and creamy and fresh pasta made it even better but slightly on the thick side but still incredible. My wife had bosciola chicken without pasta which we had never heard of but pretty much grilled chicken with mushroom cream sauce. Over all nice night good atmosphere friendly staff good food. I would good again for sure.

Whilst we were on an pretty good value voucher so the review will have a rosy glow, the food was…read moregenerally very good to excellent. Calamari Fritti had more than just the left over green stuff to garnish so the plate went back clean. The Penne Crab and Mussels had a good touch of chilli and a really fresh taste with the cherry tomatoes and asparagus. There were six of us so the other meals were Snapper Salsa, Fettucini Gambero, Pollo & Pesto Penne and lastly Lamb Shank (couldn't believe that was on the menu let alone one of us actually ordered it) The desserts were nice and there was a range of Pure Gelato flavours. We ordered extra Affogatto but as there is not a liquor licence it had to be without a liqueur. No corkage was charged for the wines this time as we were on a voucher too. The place seemed pretty busy and most of the customers were on their way out by 9:30pm. Not sure what is going on with the liquor licence as it is advertised on the website as licenced.
