What can I say, they're still the same very yummy food that I remember. Oooohhh that creamy pasta is to die for LOL. The seafood pizza is delicious too. A bit salty for my liking but I kinda expect it since it has anchovies. Lol Regarding customer service, it's just ok. The first time we came the staffs on duty were all cheerful and welcoming. On our recent visit customer service was just blah. So it really depends on who's working that time. The only thing I'm not fond of is the price LOL. Like we ordered just one carbonara (good for 2) and small pizza (good for 2 as well)... and 1 coke haha --- and we paid like 40 plus aud. Oh well, sometimes you have to pay the price for a really good meal. 4.5 star

Ok. Great place overall. And compared to most of the restaurants in this area it's pretty good. But…read moreas you'll see by the picture, even though the chef is supposedly 100% Italian there is no way that this meal was a veal saltimbocca. The chef was pretty adamant that she would not do a lot of changes, the staff, the atmosphere, and the wine was great, and I highly recommend it for that, but not sure about the other meals but this meal was nowhere near our traditional, Italian or Sicilian style dish. Considering the other reviews on other apps, I would definitely recommend this place over anything else in the area. I think the other traditional dishes are much better as I saw them come out to the guest. But this was so far off traditional anything that it makes me question the chef.

I had a booking for 8pm tonight and paid for an uber into Glenelg. To my surprise, the restaurant…read morewas closed. Called the number and was told the restaurant was closed due to covid. I never received a phone call to be told the restaurant was closed despite giving them my phone number to make the booking. I was only told sorry and no offer was made to rectify the problem at a later date when they would be reopened. We had to eat at Beach Burrito across the road even though we were prepared for an evening of proper dining. Extremely poor service.

This is a small little cafe located on Jetty Road (closer to the Brighton Road end). I had never…read morebeen here before until yesterday when my friend told me she had the best foccacia from here. We met there for lunch and we were greeted by two staff from behind the counter. They were very warm, smiley and welcoming. The lady handed us menus and offered us to take a seat - inside or outside. (Most of the tables were for about 2-4 people, so I wouldn't recommend large groups coming here.) We ordered at the counter and they brang our lunch to our tables once it was freshly made. I chose a smoked salmon foccacia with capers, lettuce, spanish onions and fresh dill mayo - sounds good hey!? It was! My only criticism is that there was a bit too much bread, but I find this the case with most foccacias any where. Pasta Gourmet's menu includes pasta (shock!!!), pizza, curry, burgers, sandwiches, wraps, chicken schnitzel, a large breakfast menu, cakes, and of course tea, coffee and cold drinks. Oh, and one last thing, everything is under $15!!!

They will deliver with quality beans and good craftsmanship. Well, if you could call a Barista a craftman, you could here. The cafe is a lovely stop in Jetty Road. It's trendy and so are it's employees and customers. I have only ever stopped here for coffee a couple of times, but I return because it has a nice vibe to it. In fact, I should really stop here for brunch. I always get food envy when I go here, and just check out the photos on this listing to know what I am talking about. But, I can vouch for the cake & muffins on offer. All fresh, tasty and priced well. If you have a group of friends, this cafe has a heck of a lot of space. You will be fine here!

The Moseley looks nice, they've done a great job decorating the place, but the food is a letdown…read more The food wasn't horrible, but it wasn't good either. The best way to describe it was "meh". First impressions were great, we were greeted out the front by a lovely lady who took us right to the elevator (as we had a pram). We went upstairs and i was impressed by the fitout, the place looks good! We ate lunch upstairs (in the more casual setting) and got a burger with chips, margherita pizza and potato skins. The burger was okay, the chips were average. The pizza tasted kind of bland (which is surprising considering their large wood pizza oven) and the crust tasted slightly burnt. The biggest letdown by far were the potato skins with cheese and bacon. After cooking the potato skins they must have been left to cool slightly and then sprinkled with cold cheese and bacon, resulting in the cheese not being melted. Apart from flavour issues it meant the cheese and bacon weren't stuck to the potato skins, so every time we picked one up all the toppings fell off and we ended up with a plain piece of potato. Not good, really not good. I ended up having to use a fork to scoop up all the cold cheese and bacon out of the bowl, it was messy and awkward. The upstairs is self-serve. You order and pay at the bar and are given a buzzer, then you have to collect the food at the kitchen. The cutlery and napkins also have to be collected from the kitchen, we couldnt find plates anywhere so it made sharing our meals hard. There was also a mix-up with our meals and the buzzer, but as they are still new we considered that teething problems. I was so disappointed, as I was hoping for something better. The balcony is great and it would be awesome for a lazy drink on a warm summer's day. But the food needs to be drastically improved! On a plus the staff seemed quite friendly. Here's hoping they fix the food issues!

Firstly, this place looks great, and is in the perfect position if you're out and about in glenelg…read moreand looking for a bite or drink. So after making a reservation for 6pm and then calling a couple of hours later to only get the answering machine, I left a message to say we would be 30 mins. later, and wanted to change the reservation to 6.30. Of course when I arrived I see they crossed out the reservation and marked it a No Show. We were seated but a note to management to make sure you check your messages. Onto the evening. The girl serving was friendly and seated us with menus. As with most Adelaide restaurants this is now where it gets frustrating when comparing it to the US restaurants we frequent. We didn't see the girl again for another 10 minutes which is when she asked us if we wanted water for the table. She then disappeared for another 10mins or so until revisiting to ask us for drinks at which time I suggested we order drinks and all food to move things along. I also asked if they would provide bread for the table which she said they would. It took another 5-10mins to get the drinks and then another few minutes to get the bread, of which there were 8 small slices, for the 9 people on the table. I then got her to come back and requested more bread which of course took another 5-10mins. Guessing by now you get the picture and problems with service. A note to the management who I'm sure are probably going to dismiss and ignore this, but after working and frequenting many hotels and restaurants throughout the world, I would suggest have your bread ready, have your water ready. When you seat people, ask them immediately which water they would like, and immediately have another staff member put some bread on the table. It not only gives the customer something to nibble and drink while waiting, but will give you some time to go and serve the other tables or for the staff to go and chat in the corner amongst themselves which seems to be a favorite past time of the overpaid hospitality staff in Adelaide. Now to the food. We sat downstairs as they were booked out upstairs. They have an upstairs more casual menu and a downstairs, fancier menu. They would not allow you to look at and order items off of the upstairs menu downstairs, they say because the 2 kitchens are separate. This makes a little sense, but, firstly if you have a group of people in your restaurant and you have a couple of people preferring to order something off of the other menu, let them. Get the staff to go upstairs, request the meal and bring it down. You are in the service industry. Serve your customer. You are much better having a happy customer who feels you have gone beyond to make sure they've had a great night. Word of mouth is key to your business survival. Food wise, the squid entree was tasty, the ceviche was ok but fish is overpowered by the fruitiness of the sauces and while the plate is colorful, the fish looks more like it's been ravaged and torn apart by the local sharks before placed on the plate. Others said the soufflé was just ok. For mains I had the 14 hr lamb, which again wasn't bad, a little flavorless. I would suggest they bake in more of a sauce or pressure cook it with vegetables etc to infuse some flavor, as once you cut into the chunk of lamb it gets quite plain and stringy. Other family members had the skirt steak which looked ok but was very inconsistently cooked with pieces ranging from medium-well to rare. They were all described as being medium. Also when preparing skirt steak, the meat should be tenderized with a rub, ala the Mexican carne asada, and well rested after cooking, and generally served sliced across the grain, so it does not come out chewy. Another member had the seafood sausage roll which was quite good, but again a little bland. I would like to see an interesting spicy sauce on the side to go with it. We ordered all of the sides available, as you don't get much on the side of your dishes, and they were probably the tastiest things of the night while being quite small for the $8.50 each. White sangria was great although overpriced and the wine and beer list is good. Again nice setting, average food and service overall. We had a much nicer, tastier, and cheaper dining experience across the square at the Italian Restaurant without the $50 per head price tag.

Got a shock when I walked in and found it was under new management. And that staff were a from a…read morecontinent different to the style of food. None of our party of six finished their meals. The curry tasted watered down, the duck was dry and I'm sure was cooked the previous day only to be reheated and fried to crisp the skin. Marinara pasta was too salty and used imported sea food. Most mains are in the $30 range and wouldn't pass even if we're half price. Avoid.

Both times the restaurants we picked were closed. So we ended up eating at another restaurant. So today we chose Lido. When we got there, there's only one couple dinning in there. We were served water as soon as we had taken a seat. Pretty good. Proceeded to order two mains - Pork belly and lamb chop. The place is not packed but I think we waited 30 mins for the food. Well, at least whrn the food came, it's not bad. The lamb is medium cooked. The meat is tender and juicy, mixed with red wine sauce and it's really a delight. However I do not like the rice and the vegetables that came with it. The rice is slightly dry, probably long grain. And the vegetable is just 5 pieces of grilled pineapples which I don't like. there's also a tiny problem of the serving size.... no... big problem... it's not exactly filling enough. :( The Pork belly has a smoky taste to it, while the skin is a crispy, it's a bit hard too. The meat is soft and chewy, really nice. Overall, I like the service given. We were being checked upon twice by the waiting stuff for the quality of the food served. The food is fine too. A pity, the waiting time is slightly long, and the serving size is small. Now the last part. After dinner. .. the first downpour for the week! Rain rain rain. It looks like it's only going to get heavier .. Soaking wet and couldn't run after a meal... it does made me wonder. . Is it worth the effort to eat out there tonight? -_-'

Let me set the scene for you. It's 9pm New Years Eve at Glenelg...well I think enough said really…read morehey? I was famished, all of the good restaurants were closed or it was $100 per head to go in and drink/eat all you can. The golden arches were a calling but I resisted not much of a temptation and was instead drawn to the spicy green and red lights across the road. "Give me all you got and stat!" I cried. Apparently that equated to a chicken and guac burrito with mexicrinkles (yes you did not read that wrong) and a Corona for $16.95. Well what a way to ring in the new year! My freshly heated burrito wrap was packed with spicy chicken and guac and not too much lettuce, my crinkle chips (I refuse to call them mexicrinkles again) were perfectly salty and spicy and the beer topped it off nicely. The atmosphere was clean and the layout was really cute with wooden boxes filled with cacti and industrial lighting in the venue. It has beautiful big windows opening out onto Jetty Rd so you can feel like part of the nightlife without getting abused by any of it. Overall if you need a quick fix meal that is reasonably priced, very fresh and reasonably healthy, this is a great option on Jetty Rd.
