There were eight of us and we wanted to eat at 2:30pm on a Sunday. This was the only place that…read moreadvertised food was served all day...and it was. The antipasto plate was very good especially the meatballs and zucchini flowers. As it was one child's birthday we got a Mickey Mouse pizza along with five other pizzas including a calzone. They were all good. There was a mix of desserts. The lavender scented pannacotta was nice but without a whiff of lavender. Parking on a Sunday is easy but any other day there are limits and you might have a walk in a side street. Whilst most of the wait staff were happy and friendly, we did strike a couple who were grumpy....we think one of them was the manager The pastas looked interesting so that might be the next meal

I like Mancini's for 4 reasons. It's local. They deliver, even when it's pouring rain outside ( Hey…read morewhy else would you order home delivery pizza when the Pizza shop is literally 10 mins walk from your house) 3. La Potata 4. La Giardino ( hold the capsicum please ) La Potata is an ultimate indulgence. Dont be on a health kick if you order it ( or be cheating on your diet, or have just run a 5km fun run if you have this one ) it is all of the best things in life. Bacon, Cheese, Potato, Spanish onion and sour cream! Lord Jesus take the wheel!! Talk about deluxe. It is just plain delicious. La Giardino is a Vegetarian option. An Option! If you are or have ever been vego ( as I was for 10 years) having actual options is an absolute treat. Eggplant, tomato ( we ask for fresh tomato to replace the capsicum) cheese and mushroom. They have a lot of options! Hurrah! I admit Ive never actually dined in at Mancini's but it is definitely the Hub of Summer Hill village. Along with Da Vinci's next door, it's a Pizza agglomeration. White linen, outdoor tables line the streets in true European style, and it is always very busy and buzzing. Highly recommend it.

Mancini's is a cosy little restaurant located on Smith Street, Summer Hill. It offers a nice…read moreambience with wooden tables, dimmed lights and a large stone oven that is the centrepiece of the restaurant. If you choose to dine al fresco, they have plenty of seats with outdoor heating. However, many families dine here so be wary of a little noise if you choose to dine indoors. Their pizzas and salads are absolutely delicious. As the last reviewer before me said, La Potate is divine. The Meatlovers is also absolutely delicious and packed with meat. However, if you're watching your weight, try a Calabrese salad - the combination of gnocchi and tomato is smooth and delectable. If you want some dessert, they have plenty of gelato and cake on offer.

A nice genuine wood fired Napoli pizza joint. We came on a Saturday night at 6pm with 6 people and…read moreseats were booked inside but tables free outside, lucky it was a nice summer evening. There is also online booking on dimmi. The pizza was good with nice crust and appropriate amount of toppings (don't expect too much). The standouts for me was the special Pesto with potato (with added sausage) and Vesuvio (although next time I would ask for spice). Only downsides was that the pizzas got a bit oily and a bit floppy. Service was friendly and prompt, we finished our dinner within the hour with pizzas coming out 2 by 2. Overall a nice addition to the Strand.

We came here for a work lunch recently and to be honest, the pizza I was told was fresh and edible…read more Because I didn't eat any I can't really say. I went against the grain and ordered a risotto which was meant to be Risotto Pollo - creamy mushroom with chicken. The taste was missing. I kept adding salt but all that did was make me thirsty and it still didn't taste that good. Even with lots of chilli, it didn't work. Another workmate got the Ossobucco beef after I told him what ossobucco actually was. He said that it was good. The meat melted on his fork so I can only assume that it tasted good too. Overall? It's a pricey endeavour for so so food. Maybe their pizzas are the things to stick to?

Anema E Core is a little restaurant (there is only two tables inside opposite their massive coffee machine and their indoor wood fired pizza oven, the rest of the tables are outside and with the weather being rainy they were not set up yet. We ordered the 4 Formaggi (Gorgonzola, Smoked buffalo Mozzarella, fiordilatte, Shaved Parmesan, basil,olive oil) Crudo E Rucola ( Rocket, prosciutto, shaved Parmesan, basil, olive oil) and for dessert the Nutella pizza all for takeaway. The base is ridiculously soft! I am in heaven. Nom nom nom I love this place! Staff are friendly and the chefs have a think Italian accent which adds to the authenticity of this tiny restaurant. We have booked to go again this Sunday, looking forward to trying their other pizzas and the coffee! Ciao :)

After reading great things about Anema E Core on the internet. I decide to head there to judge for…read moremyself. Anema E Core is located in Meadowbank, right next to the station. It's a small restaurant with a pizza oven but they mount massive tents outside which is where the customers sit. I was concerned that it would be cold in the tent but they had heaters heating up the massive tents. Although the weather is warm and cold at the moment!! Anema E Core is really busy so I recommend you book beforehand.I have read wonderful things about how great their pizza is so I was eager to check it out. The table next to us orders a metre long pizza which looks spectacular. I order the "081" pizza which has a tomato base with mozzarella, ham, mild salami, ricotta, black pepper with basil and olive oil. The pizza came out so quickly and looked amazing. What an efficient kitchen Anema E Core has.The base is nice and doughy. The toppings are basic but come well together like real authentic pizza. I would strongly endorse their pizzas!! Yummo. I also order some dessert including the Nutella donut ( $7). It's quite a sizeable donut, comparable to a small cake. The donut is cut in half with nutella. It's topped with a bit of cream, strawberries, icing sugar and drizzled with more chocolate. Yummo. I love nutella so this donut went down like a treat. woot woot. $7 is also a nice price tag.

It's a bit hard to do a review on a Father's Day service but the guys here were great!…read more We were greeted by a cheerful wait staff who in spite of a constant full house manage to stay in high spirits. The food was delicious, antipasti was a genii round serving, the pizzas nice and thin and woodfired, and the swordfish had an interesting base which was sweet, almost moorish in its characteristics One thing is we ordered the Antipasto Sud Grande for 8 people, the menu price is not a item price but a head price - just be mindful of that as its not very clear on the menu Whilst we had the table booked until 1.45 we weren't rushed. All in all the staff were great - happy to entertain my father and his lame attempt at Italian. Thanks to the staff.

For a big group I suggest ordering some pizza because the are amazing and if u want to add less or more to the pizza they can. If you want to try something different try one of the specials.

I have lived in Leichhardt all my life and eaten at almost every restaurant and cafe. Until…read morerecently, however, Castel Mola had remained a mystery to me. Aside from its somewhat inconvenient location from a walking perspective, it just looked tacky and "wannabe". When I tried it for the first time however, I was pleased to realize that I had grossly misread the unassuming pizzeria. First things first: Pizza. Simply put, Castel Mola's pizza is the best I have eaten--by far. The dough is scrumptious, the toppings are mouth watering and best of all, it all reeks with authenticity. The pizza chef is on display, just as proof. It is truly Leichhardt's--if not the entire Inner West's--best pizzeria. Now to the pasta. Castel Mola's pasta is of the same caliber as its pizza. Whenever I go now, I always struggle to choose weather to have the pizza or pasta--they're that good. My favourite thing about Castel Mola, however, is the fact that they do home delivery. Living in Leichhardt, there is no shortage of pizzerias to order home delivery from but this trumps them all. All in all, Castel Mola is the best pizzeria, to my knowledge, in Sydney.

No pretense like the trendy joints in Haberfield up the road, or Glebe round the corner. Honest tasty high quality food that won't send you to your banker for a top up of your mortgage. Make sure you get the signature Penne Castel Mola. A perfect pink sauce with a hint of chilli and juicy prawns. The bruschetta pizza to start is also a must.
