Another 5 Star Perfect visit to Da Angelo's. Fourth visit in our fourth visit to Hobart....here's…read moreto a fifth in 2025! We have learned that if you are thinking about going make a reservation as soon as you can. When we arrived Angelo was working. We all smiled. The place was packed. Everyone seemed to be celebrating birthdays and there were mainly locals. We ordered our regular pizza. A large Fraraccio, no olives, no anchovies, add onion, capers and oregano. A simple salad with an Italian vinaigrette. The salad arrived and in its simple form was beautiful. The pizza arrived and now we know this 'ugly' pizza is delicious. It has taught us over the years to not 'judge a book by its covers!'. We ate until we almost could and then remembered the Tiramisu. We put our forks down and asked for a to go bag. It is great at room temperature and few hours later! We ordered the tiramisu, it arrive and it was art on a plate. And as delicious as we remembered. Oh my, not a morsel left and finished with a complementary limoncello delivered by Angelo. The restaurant is homey as it gets. The staff are so friendly and competent. It's like one big happy family. The food is great. Prices are reasonable. Highly recommend. Make Reservation.

When my hotel made the reservation, I was given the impression that I would be seated at the…read morecommunal bench rather than a table. As my table was at the small corner by the soda refrigerator in the front, I wish I had been seated at the communal bench. There were takeaway customers seated by me waiting for their order. As I enjoy people watching, I had thought it was the worst area of the restaurant to do just that. Fortunately, my waitress was super nice, friendly and provided helpful recommendations, for dinner and places to visit during the rest of my holiday. She made me forget about the terrible table and the guy near me who waited a significant time for his order. Due to her recommendation, I had the Bianco with the Nicolina's Special, entree portion rather than the main. My waitress made sure to warn about the amount of garlic in the sauce. The potato gnocchi and the squid rings absorbed the garlic butter sauce so well, I did not realize I was eating squid if it was not for a few crunchy bites. Although I did not need it, the smaller entree portion gave me an additional excuse to order dessert. I was ready to order my Italian default dessert which is tiramisu, but I asked my waitress for her recommendation as she has yet to fail me. I instead ordered the special which had to been concocted by a chocoholic, a chocolate pudding covered with warm chocolate sauce and served with vanilla ice cream. Enough said. I knew it would not be American style pudding. The dessert resembled a warm, very moist cake. Due to where I was seated, I could not flag my waitress. On the other hand, there were two employees huddled by the bench for table. One clearly noticed me fiddling on my phone as we exchanged eye contact. Eventually, my waitress came by to check on me.

Good Food, Good Service, Great for lunch…read more Had a group of 5 for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and was a bit upset that they only serve Boags beer?!?! We are in Hobart people. The Lamb Cutlets were by far the most popular dish on our table and were demolished the fastest too. Next visit I will be trying them. However the Gnocchi special for the day was to die for and the right size for lunch. All of my dining companions enjoyed their meal and it was a pleasant afternoon. Downside 1 toilet in the whole place?

They also serve a platter full of meats, cheeses, grilled veggies and bread which is not only a bargain for 20$ but it truly is a delicious find. We sometimes will come to Ciuccio just to buy and share a few platters before heading across the square for a few drinks.

Aiiii hello Ti Ama, I've been waiting for you and I'm so glad you're finally here…read more The crew behind the infamous Local Pizza of Berriedale have expanded into town and gotten a little glam. Think mirrorball pizza oven, think fluoro signage, think amazing pink and green and white fitouts with greenery everywhere and a Tom O'Hern mural wall and MORE disco balls, and just bloody good food. It's been over a week now and I'm still thinking about the grilled nectarine/burrata cheese/prosciutto combo that I ate selfishly and entirely by myself (surrounded by vegetarians and vegans, but whatever). Speaking of vegans, my overly restricted gf/vegan/fodmap bestie somehow managed to eat from four different plates and didn't die by the next morning, which is kind of unheard of (especially because not one of those plates was her go-to, hot chips). VOODOO MAGIC. My boyfriend's ricotta gnocchi was the best gnocchi he'd ever eaten, he declared (and also didn't share). The antipasto plate was a bit whatever but who even cares with all the other stuff that was going on. They are, of course, making some pizzas there, because with a rep like Local Pizza's they would have been set afire if they hadn't carried some options into town with them! The only negatives as far as my group were concerned were that the tunes were a little TOO pumping (but hey, they're in Salamanca now and that's the way it is in Salamanca - but could it not be? Maybe? Just a little quieter?) and the chairs that weren't booth seats were aesthetically nice to look at but actually quite uncomfortable. Tricky. I'll be back. I'll be back some time really soon, I reckon. And I'll be sitting in a booth seat. And eating that nectarine dish.

Much to our disappointment, service was subpar as was the food. Our group ordered the tasting menu…read moreeven though, oddly, our waitress couldn't tell us what was on it. Food presentation was nice but every dish was over seasoned and too salty... except for dessert. The worst was the risotto which was severely undercooked. I told the waitress and she explained its supposed to be "al dente" and "chewy". I told her that it was undercooked and crunchy and she said "yes, that's how it's supposed to be". Um... ok, so she gave 2 opposing definitions of al dente. Both she and the cooks either have a delusional sense of what al dente really is or they've redefined it. Most dishes I didn't bother finishing because they just weren't good. I would not recommend this place at all.

They had outdoor seating as well but it was a chilly morning. Nice views of the water and lots of commuters coming in for work.

There were many tables waiting and the waitresses didnt have a clue what they were doing. When we asked for a bread for kids to chew on, they brought few pieces of old/hard bread in 20 min. They brought the wrong wine and when we finally decided to leave without eating after 75min they charged us for it and said they will 'not' charge us for the bread.!? I happened to see the food been served to another table while waiting and with all my honesty I can tell that it was not good but any means. So if you wish to eat some good italian food on time, stat away from this place.!

Red wine was a nice selection of local Oz and Italian. All round well worth the walk. Only advise is to phone ahead and book a table

A modern revamp of the premises has made the place brighter and warmer. Eating outside still available but the difference is now the quality of the food on offer. Fresh pastries and small individual pizzas at approx $5-7 are fantastic. Light well risen dough with great toppings on are superb. No more slices with dried out toppings, these are a delight. As a pizza lover these are the bomb. Not only that the coffee is sensational. A must visit.
