Tucked down a laneway, housed in an industrial building, you'll find our quirky pizzeria. Our vibe is super casual and we love to see our customers sharing pizzas, beers and enjoying life. Our space is ideal for large groups, but also for families and couples. Were all about the pizza! Pizza Napoletana is authentic pizza from Naples, and we make it according to the generations-old technique....with just a little of our own twists here and there. Our dough is made in-house and fermented for a minimum of 24hrs to create a tasty and light base - minimal yeast so no bloating here. Then its hand-stretched, topped with quality ingredients imported from Italy AND sourced locally, and cooked at a fiery 400 degrees.We do other stuff as well - starters, sharers, salads, homemade desserts, and gelato. Plus cocktails, imported and locally brewed beers, and some carefully selected wines from independent wineries.

Have previously had some disappointments with the overall experience but this time I could not fault them. The requested seating, the quality of service which was patient and friendly, the food was perfectly prepared and presented and the costs were in the normal range for this type of restaurant and time of year.

Great menu & service. The lamb & pork were very flavourful as were the accompaniments. The staff were friendly & efficient. Parking is a little tricky with all of the surrounding building works so allow extra time.
