Our food
Our menu focuses on Italian-American classics, and also covers various family favourites from our childhood.
The dish, ‘Mom’s spaghetti’ is made using the very same recipe handed down from my grandmother, and something we’d eat on special occasions when growing up. Keep your eyes peeled around the restaurant for photos us eating them as children.
Our pasta sauces are made by hand, daily, and my mother prepares the desserts every morning — so make sure you give them a go too.
We work closely with our suppliers, receiving daily deliveries of fresh and imported ingredients. Our pizzas are prepared with our own 48-hour fermented dough, ensuring crispy yet fluffy goodness.
Gluten-free pasta and pizza bases are available, just let us know when ordering if you have any specific dietary requirements so we can cater for you as best we can.
