Good old Mum and Pop team running this establishment. After passing it every day for nearly 3…read moreyears, I thought my wife's birthday would be a good occasion to test it out. My expectations where extremely high and i must say, they where exceeded. I had the cannelloni, mum had the fish in tomato source, dad struggled to finish his Veal Parmigiana, my wife some creamy meat and our 3 year old enjoyed putting endless parmesan on her penne Bolognese. Nothing like home cooked meals, if you cook at home like this, adopt me. It is in the old school building in St. Ives, which makes it already extra special. Free standing building with outdoor seating as well as kitsch Italian indoor room. Parking never a problem, the atmosphere really throws you back to a time where medici ruled over the north. This is NOT a modern Italian restaurant or some fusion thingy. If you ever been to Tuscany, the low lands what is Venecia, if you ever ran through Verona and screamed loud Julia at 3 in the morning, than this restaurant is for you. It does not get any more authentic than this.

When I moved to Penrith I was in search of authentic Italian food. Where I used to live I had a…read moregreat Italian restaurant near me so I needed to find a new one! I love everything about this place - the food is excellent quality and is always steaming hot when it's served. I've had pretty poor luck with finding fresh tortellini from other places (always frozen or store bought) but the pasta here is amazing. Everything is fresh! Decently priced too. The service is excellent and you will almost always find the owner cooking in the kitchen. He is always very welcoming! When I found out they did take away it basically made my life! I have recommended this place to all my friends and family and they love it too!

The first thing I noticed upon being seated is the drinks menu. Huge…read more Food is mostly desserts and wood fired pizza. They do look good. Set menus are available at $45-75 a head for groups of 6+. I wanted to get a feel for the place and sat down and ordered an ice coffee. Well presented and refreshing. Not the sickly sweet type that u need to wash down with a glass of water. BUT imagine my surprise to find out it's not coffee...but liquid Gold. At $9 I think it's beyond what I'd pay for .70 cents worth of ingredients. Advice... Look at the prices first. I'm sure business will boom here. Great space and location. I just don't think I can afford to come back until I save up.

We got in and I'm so glad we did. It's Italian villa style. The dining rooms have arches and iron chairs and Mediterranean accents. The outdoor patio is relaxed, covered and sunny. When we arrived people were playing bocce on the back lawn. My wife and I shared one of their large pot roasts, lamb in our case. It was absolutely delicious. We love food served like this, meat and veg and seasonings all slow-cooked together. It was very European and a perfect excuse for a long, slow lunch on a hot, sunny afternoon. The wine list had an extensive selection of Italian wines. For those worried about air miles they also have a selection of wines - by the glass and bottle - from a winery just down the road. The atmosphere was continental and perfect, with happy families, leisurely lunchers, and lots of wine. The service was exemplary, and all delivered with a smile. If you believe a great meal requires a great experience as well as great food, The Beltree is a spot worth seeking out.

This place isn't the top-ranked restaurant in Polkolbin for nothing. Superb nouveau Italian with…read morebrilliant service and a small but well-curated menu. Lovely Tuscan staples like rabbit and porchetta augmented with fusion dishes make this a pretty faultless nook of bella Italia in the heart of Hunter wine country.
