    Capriscciosa
    Sylvia J.

    You know that awkward moment you're enjoying food so much you start talking with a faux, horrible accent from that country? ...no? Oh bene...me neither. 'Twas a meh Tuesday night (seriously, no one likes you Tuesday...even more so than Monday) when we're stuck on general holmes drive at peak hr traffic and was getting seriously hangry...my usual comfort food were just a tad too far away and yelp told me there's good pasta/pizza nearby. Thanks yelp! You understand me. We ordered the mushroom risotto off the specials board, the radicchio salad, a capricciosa pizza and wine. They were all spot on. Risotto was earthy and al dente (proper al dente, not raw), pizza was soft but chewy, salad was well balanced and wine were delicious! The place is big and very industrial with their decor, only downside was that it was a bit too industrial and tad cold. Having said that, it's a great fair priced, good Italian restaurant for large groups with plenty of street parking nearby. Me likey.

    Went here for a lunch with my Auzzie mates. Outstanding homemade pastas and desserts. Service was excellent as was the food. I had a pasta dish that was really tasty. Very friendly owner and staff. When I come back to Sydney, I will repeat.

    This is the best pizza I've ever had in Sydney! The base is so soft and light and I was able to eat an entire pizza (I usually eat not more than a half)! Also, the staff is very friendly and the restaurant feels like home, very well maintained and cleaned. Also, the desserts are just amazing: give the semifreddo a try and also the pannacotta was great. They have also a selection of ice creams from Rivareno: amazing and creamy flavour. Absolutely recommended!

    Just had dinner at Da Mario. Pizza was great and had the special lamb ragu with gnocchi which was delicious. Service was quick and friendly although it was a bit difficult to understand the Italian wait staff. Yep ... De Mario is authentic right down to the employees. Great place for couples or a small group of friends.

    Very tasty calzones! I've yet to try anything else. One thing I will say is that it is moderately overpriced compared to its competitors.

Lucio's is about the same distance walk from Hyde Park, just in the other direction, tucked in a quiet residential area. They don't take reservations so we made sure we were there right at 6 when they opened. Friendly servers stacked some tables up and we enjoyed the outdoor-cafe ambiance watching people in a stroll or arriving at ours and the other little restaurants in the square. The pizza was just what we've come to expect from certified Neopolitano pizzerias. The crust is key: thin, chewy and delicious. They have a wide variety of toppings. We loved the Calzone but just as toppings on the pizza, the Fontina, the arugula-prosciutto one and the white-sauce broccoli. We ordered the 1 meter pizza (which is NOT a diameter like we were thinking - more like 4 pizzas in a row) but it wasn't enough so we ordered another 1/2 meter. The rocket-pear salad was also very good. We finished the equivalent of 6 pizzas between 8 adults and 3 kids. One of us was gluten free so they brought a mozzarella/prosciutto plate. The location was nice. The kids could run around the square while we sat and chatted. It filled up quickly - if you have a big group get there early.

Pretty interesting combos like the Rumble in the Jungle with pumpkin and green peas, the Popeye Power with hummus, and the Happy Daize with vegan ricotta. They have salads as well but I was too distracted by having more than one vegan option! Food: 4 stars Definitely an experience. Hummus on a pizza, check. Vegan ricotta, check. Deliciousness galore, check check. I had the Popeye Power and subbed the vegan ricotta for the mozzarella. I've never had hummus on a pizza before and was a welcome change. Loved the brininess of the olives w/ the acid of the lemon wedge. The ricotta rounded it out and melded w/ the creaminess of the hummus. Repeatability: 5.0 stars Great for both vegans and meat eaters. However, I don't think it's possible to request for half vegan/half meat pies. It was near closing time when we dropped by and I didn't see any vegan pies out so had to order a whole one. Disclaimer: it takes about 15-20 mins. The pie is b/w a standard U.S. med and large. This place was the only pizza joint in the area that actually stayed open as they stated online. Major plus as we went to three others. It was meant to be. They let us eat at the counter while they cleaned; they even continued to take slice orders. The folks were super nice and the cashier lady (I should have gotten her name) was incredibly helpful.

You can take as much pizza and pasta as you want during the time. Most of the pizzas were very good! They were all unique, but some were a bit salty - and beware of the strong blue cheese! The pastas weren't really that great...pretty basic. For $25, it's worth it for the unique experience, but I probably wouldn't go back. It'd be nice if the dessert pizza was included, rather than a separate fee just for some Nutella on bread.

Situated in Brisbane St, the little laneway connecting Oxford St to Harmony Park in Surry Hills, this joint replaces a little Japanese restaurant that had been there for 16 years. As everyone that passed the 6th grade knows, Einstein's Formula for Deliciousness states: Innovative concept + brilliant service + delicious food + amazing value + All You Can Eat = ten truckloads of WIN. Here's how it works: you pay either $20 (unlimited pizza & pasta) or $29 (unlimited pizza or pasta + sides) and sit around a communal table while an affable waiter (we had Jonny) cracks jokes and brings around slices of 'za and steaming spoonfuls of pasta - all different, all delicious - until you've maxed out the elastic on your fat pants and you roll out the door and aim yourself down the hill at your car. Brilliant. I'm coming back, and I'm bringing freaking everyone.
