Fitzroy Italian Restaurant

"We had my son's christening/1st birthday celebration here. Was absolutely fantastic. Very easy to deal with, great service and lovely food and wine. Kept a group of people aged 8 months to 72 years very happy."

"Very caring staff, who gave good advice about food and wine."

"When you try a restaurant you've never tried before, it's always a gamble. Fortunately it paid off here. Ordered the take home meatballs, bolognese sauce and gnocchi and all were fresh, well balanced and delicious. The meatballs were lightly herbed and the meat was cooked to perfection and was quite lean. The accompanying sauce was the right balance of great rich tomato without being oily. The potato gnocchi was melt in your mouth silky. The only thing for me was the Bolognese sauce could have been meatier rather than on the thin side, but it is a sauce after all so shouldn't really complain. The meat was lean and satisfying without being greasy or grisly. Definitely recommend. Staff and atmosphere seemed very pleasant. Wish I lived around the corner. Prices very reasonable."

"Best gluten free pizza base we have ever had! It looked so much like the wheat base that I had to call and double check (we have a coeliac in the house). The pizza was so yummy. 10/10! Thank you so much."
