I honestly chose this restaurant because there were lots of diners. Pretty straightforward. You review the menu, then go inside to order, pay there, get a number and then find a table. They bring the pizza to you. Pizza was hot, with plenty of toppings. 12' Special. Easy in and out that was hassle free. read more

This was my first time at San Giorgio Ristorante. I was with friends visiting from Texas (USA). We'd been to the Botanical Gardens and were walking back to a hotel on Frome Street. We looked at the menu on the wall from the street and thought we'd give it a go. The servings are generous, even for my friends from Texas. One friend couldn't finish her risotto. I went with the beef and reef. It was a "400 g" scotch fillet. It was topped with half a Moreton Bay bug tail, some calamari and some prawns, served on top of seasonal vegetables with a creamy lemon garlic sauce. I asked for medium rare, but it was rare. Not a problem because I like rare, but when I'm out, I usually ask for medium rare for expectation management. The steak was tender and tasted great. The seafood was cooked the way I like it. My only gripe was that the steak knife was blunt, and the table wobbled, so cutting the steak created a shaking table. I stood on the table leg flanges for stability, but the experience would have been many times better if I had had a sharp knife. Sorry not to give this a perfect review, but please serve guests with a fair dinkum steak knife. read more

So it's 6:25 pm on the 13th of April 2023. Restaurant half packed waitstaff seems to be doing an amazing job keeping things flowing. We chose to sit outside they have a very extensive menu lots of good options. The atmosphere has lots of beautiful frescoes to view during your visit and while dinning. One difference between this restaurant and a restaurant in Rome Italy. Way to much street traffic, car traffic, noise. Let's see how the food compares. We ordered the pollo risotto and the Granchio "crab meat and Pasta. Let's see what they taste like. Twenty minutes food is on the table hot, and delicious ohhh yummy wow we really like the two different sauces polo risotto delicious the crab legs that was served on top of Granchio was as if it had been sitting in a bucket of hot water all day. The meat was mushy and flavorless but the chunks of crab meat inside the Granchio was delicious and plentiful So overall with the large serving sizes that were delivered to the table we would have to give this restaurant a strong four stars What a wonderful way to end the day. Bon appétit bon appétit. read more

Rang in the morning to make a booking for 10 people for 8.30pm that night. We got there at 8.34pm and was told the kitchen was closed. Why would they close when they knew we were coming? Why would they take our booking?? We were then forced to walk the city trying to find somewhere to eat. Dreadful customer service. Will not be going back! read more

Pretty average place.. Canned asparagus on the 'gourmet' pollo pizza... Yuck! For a 15" in pizza it was 29.90... pretty poor.. I would probably pay 20 for that... Also the tomato sauce on the base just used dried basil probably just Leggos pizza sauce or something... I guess if you don't mind the trashy pop beats and clinical fluoro ambience or you just want a late night feed you will enjoy this place. But in my opinion Scoozi's is a surer bet than this place. read more

San Giorgio Ristorante - Canned asparagus?!? Hardly qualifies the pizza for the gourmet category - Italian Near Me - Adelaide, SA

Back when I was a night-owl, this place was one of my regular go-to spots during the week for late night coffee. Why? Simply because they stay open later than everybody else does. Staying open until 5AM is an incredibly smart move by the owners, as there are essentially no other cafes/restaurants in the area to compete with in the early hours of the morning. And, because of their dedication to stay open later than everyone else, late-nighters such as my former self are found in abundance at this establishment. Customer service at San Giorgio is excellent, and the staff is very extremely friendly. I guarantee by your third visit, they'll know your name and how you like your coffee (assuming that you're as friendly and talkative as they are!). The coffee is great and the food is delicious and well-presented. Whilst renowned for their gourmet pizzas, the garlic prawns are a must try for any fan of seafood - it quickly became one of my favourite seafood dishes to get when in the city. The best thing about this place is that there's never any rush to finish your food or gulp down your coffee - so long as you're out by sunrise, you've got all the time in the world to enjoy your meal! read more

22/12/2011 A bottle of corona, a glass of red wine and my slightly tipsy hot date made my San Giorgio experience VERY enjoyable. An extensive European menu, older classic restaurant decor and attentive service made sure anyone had at least something to choose from. Whether you bring your best friend, your potential marriage partner or your first date, this is a comfortable place to take your companion. I've been here several times before with my best friensd, and it never disappointed because the food and cosy feel of the place. You can potentially get lost for hours in great food and intense conversation. I love the fact that the waiter is more than willing to suggest the right drink or right dish for you, if you're getting lost reading through their menu. There's not much to hate about this place. It's just straight up nice, warm and you an feel settled right in as soon as you take your seat. Depending on what hour you go, it can either be really peaceful and quiet, or packed and busy. No matter what time, there is something available to order even late on a Friday or Saturday night. The only criticism I have is that the San Giorgio staff appear a lot more serious and focussed, relative to some of the staff in other restaurants I go to for lunch. Maybe this is better for a place with class, because they did a great job for me anyway. read more

Normally, I'm here because it's late, I've had a few drinks, and I want something other than a burger or burrito (nothing against burritos though, burritos are great). Recently, I went with a few friends before drinks, and tried the seafood risotto. Often I'm too scared to try risotto at restaurants, so many times being served something no better than what I make myself. For the second time ever, I've now had an excellent restaurant risotto. The stock used gave a real depth of flavour, and the perfect level of saltiness. The seafood was of high quality, with four big mussels, and many good sized prawns. I never really considered San Giorgio's as a serious, good quality Italian restaurant. My opinion has now been decisively changed for the better. read more

They are open until 5am, and from lunch onwards, which is pretty amazing in a town like Adelaide. Convenience does not always go with quality ... but it sure as hell does at San Giorgio. I tried the vegetarian risotto, which was full of veggies and was actually quite good. It was also really filling. For $22 dollars, I did feel like it was on the expensive side, but still, it was good. I'd be curious to try their pizzas, though they also seemed a bit pricey (plain 9" for $14). read more

San Giorgio was a lovely restaurant and one that I shall definitely return to. The pizzas taste authentic and Italian, ingredients were fresh and tasty. Staff were friendly and attentive but above all the whole atmosphere was great. You can see the kitchen area where the pizzas were being prepared and the gelato cabinet is something that I shall have to try next time. The pizza is very filling and I managed to sample a few different ones whilst I was there, all of which tasted amazing. Pricing was reasonable and this seems like the best place to get some great Italian food (that I am aware of) in the CBD. read more

Adorned with pictures of Tony Montana, and Elvis Presley, these guys strictly mean business when it comes to interior decorating. San Giorgio is open until 5AM every morning, and also offers free delivery in the surrounding CBD. I have to thank this business for sobering me up in such a tasty way over the years. I'm pretty sure they've saved my life at least once by keeping me off the road. In saying so, it would be unfair to label this establishment as a foot traffic stop off for booze hounds, as the food on it's own is actually very good, and I have no criticisms either when it comes to the service. I seriously don't think we dine in for pizza enough these days, and this place serves up a mean slice. " Say hello to my little friend!" "Thankyou very much!" read more

San Giorgio has provided me with tasty meals, excellent service, and just plain shelter for around 2-3 years now. I love that it's open till a ridiculous hour, and not just for coffee or dessert - for actual meals too! The owner is pretty much always there and working, and sometimes throws in an extra garlic bread or two. I love love love garlic bread, so that's me won over. The staff are friendly, despite how busy and hot it gets inside. Thankfully, there are lots of outdoor tables available too. On a Friday and Saturday night this place can become your safe haven, a place to refuel before battling out the rest of the night. As previously mentioned, I love garlic bread so this is probably (very) biased but their garlic bread is amazing! It's super thick and crunchy with extra butter. Sometimes I order it with cheese and mushrooms for an extra dollar or two. Perfection. The carbonara and salmon pasta are yummy as well, but my favourite would have to be the marinara - ask for it spicy - and the San Giorgio pizza. As for the rest of the menu, it's nice but I would stick to what I know: pizza and pasta. Don't let the slightly dark and depressing interior cloud your judgement of the food and atmosphere. This place is great for a bunch of friends eating out at any time of the day, any day of the week. read more

Been here twice. This second experience is a major warning sign: The pizza is fine. However, the restaurant tried to scam us. For our $61 ticket, we left one $5 two $20 and one $50 bills - it was late, we were not paying close attention, and one of us needed some change. The waitress returns with $5.... Somewhere, there were $30 missing!! We wanted to make sure that we hadn't made a mistake and after much deliberation we went to the register - who said "oh, we thought you wanted to leave a tip" Really?? Either: (a) They thought we wanted to leave specifically a $30 gratuity - which is 50% and that is why they returned us $5. (b) They were as absent minded as we were with the money (yeah right). (c) They felt they deserved the extra $30, for whatever reason... The interesting thing is that they didn't argue with us, immediately returned us the money and tried to move on without much ado.... I bet this scheme works wonderfully because they stay late and cater to customers who may have been partying, I fear our experience could be a common occurrence.... Be careful! A perfectly fine dinner just turned sour because of this event; I will not return and will never recommend this place to other people. read more

Thought I would give this place a go on a busy night. Initial impression was pretty good, and the place looks inviting. Great variety on the menu and friendly staff. We got off to a good start, the garlic bread was really nice and that's where the good ended. I ordered the lasagna expecting layers of pasta sheets with mince in between and a good sauce, but what I got was pasta sheets with bacon in between and a really average orange looking sauce. Wasn't impressed. They also somehow got my friend's pizza order mixed up and we had to wait for another pizza to be made. I wouldn't come back anytime soon. 2 stars for the good garlic bread and staff. read more

Late night hunger pains = a visit to San Giorgio's. You may regret it afterwards but certainly not at the time, when you're greeted (for the most part) by friendly staff, often backpacker-types and treated to a warm-ish reception. The obviously Italian menu is not too extravagant and just what you want for a stupid o'clock feed. Pizza, pasta, main dishes. It's all acceptable and cooked well. You know if you're heading here at a ridiculous hour you're going to encounter some grubs but these people are just like you... P*ssed and hungry. Don't judge. I like a fettuccine or a penne if I'm going for pasta, they split the pizza if you want half and half and the rest is as I said, perfectly acceptable. Don't go home without having something, you'll regret that more so in the morning. read more

5 stars for the risotto, I don't care about anything else on the menu and I never ever will because I've found my main meal and it's Risotto everytime, all the time. I don't care if it cost nearly $30 to get my risotto fix, its worth every cent, I'll never change, my loyalty lies with risotto. Seafood or chicken, doesn't matter , both are equally amazing. What doesn't get 5 stars is the takeaway delivery service provided by San Giorgio's, what I mean by that is if you order your meal at 6pm you aren't going to see it for another hour or so even though you are a few streets over from the restaurant. maybe this is actually what makes the risotto so good, the fact that you're practically starving by the time you get to eat it. read more

This place hits the spot everytime, whether I'm after pizza, pasta, risotto, it doesn't matter. Everything is equally as good. The service also matches the food in that it is fast, and pleasant. It is on the more expensive side, but well worth it for a lovely cooked meal. It can also get quite busy, but in my experience the service remains the same, whether we are the only people there or it's a full house. read more

This is Adelaide's famous all night venue so you have to rate it that way (on this night I'd give it 5 stars anyway but bare in mind we didn't have a full 3 course meal but it's not really that type of place anyway). We had never been here but we were hungry after a late theatre show so we tried it. At 12.30 I was expecting pizzas only but they had a full menu. The place actually even has a nice feel and ambience inside! I would suggest after 1AM the crowd may sometimes become less choice but again surprisingly there were no late night yobbos. We ordered the oysters and the Barramundi special. The service was amazing, at that time of night you want to be served quick and we were. The oysters were fresh (the turnover in this place is so great they tasted like they just came in) and the Barra was superb. The topping on the Barra was similar to a Pazziola but better with shallots, ginger, garlic, tomato sauce etc, the best I've had, and here! At 1am! I'm a convert or just lucky. Also the chips (I'm normally not a chip person) were amazing! large and lightly paprika dusted. read more

A couple friends and I got a family pizza takeaway on a busy saturday night, probably took 30mins which is pretty good considering the restaurant was packed inside and out. The pizza was delicious, plenty of tasty toppings and the garlic bread was yummy too. Bit on the pricier side but the food reflects it, will definitely go again. read more

Housemates and I decided to order delivery from here for lunch since we'd heard a lot of good things about the pizza. It took them two and a half hours to deliver it. When it got here, the pizza was lukewarm and dry and the drinks we ordered weren't cool any more. Still paid full price and the delivery driver didn't offer the slightest apology for how late he was. After he left, I found that they messed up my order as well. I ordered meatlovers but instead got supreme. Maybe we caught them on an off day but this service was just a joke. I'll definitely never be ordering from them again. read more

The pizza is more of an American style. Can not classify it as Italian as they advertise it. Great for late hours and after clubbing. The location and service are perfect too, If you are hungry late at night, it is a good option at the end. read more

Ordered food for delivery, was told would be an hour wait. Food arrived in half an hour, which was good. Food was not - pasta was cold and unappetising; schnitzel meal had no chips and too much salad; prawn cocktail not worth the price. I probably wouldn't return in a hurry. read more

San Giorgio is a Rundle Street institution. I've been coming here since my highschool days and their pizza's NEVER disappoint!

I must admit I question if this place really does make as good pizza as I think it does? The reason for my suspicion is I've never eaten here EXCEPT for anytime between 1am and 5am when the munchies have hit after a night of drinking and dancing. Usually it's as I'm leaving a Rundle St venue, but on occasion I've been known to either trek or taxi from the west end in search of that golden slice. And like the very few other places in Adelaide that are either busy or crazy enough to be open all night every night I rate it for 'never sleeping' in a somewhat sleepy town. In a nutshell-i'll see you there in the wee hours! read more

Nice food and good prices. The decor is getting pretty dated - but it's kind of comical!

I think that San Georgio is one of the bests pizza makers in Adelaide. I have ordered a couple of times and I enjoyed their effective customer service and the fact that the food was at my door step on time. I find the prices very reasonable for the quality of the food they serve, so I would say that the prices are very good. I also like that they deliver food at really late times, so that's perfect for me as working until really late. I enjoyed a lot spaghetti carbonara which was very close to the truly Italian recipe. The source was a bit oily so I am not sure if non-Mediterranean people would enjoy 100% such taste but in general it was very tasty. Moreover, the portion was really good, so believe me, with a dish of carbonara you will feel "full".... I also enjoyed tortellini with chicken. The tortellini seemed homemade and I liked it a lot. Again, the chicken source was a bit more oily that usual but nothing to complaint about. In a nutshell, I truly recommend this pizzeria!!!! Thanks read more

We were served raw chicken and salmon with scales. I'm surprised they had the audacity to bill the table after such a cock up. Drinks were way overpriced and the food that was actually cooked was mediocre. Service was adequate. read more

Great grub at 4am in the morning always hot and fresh but the delivery is not so good.

The first time I ordered from San Giorgio, not only did they take over an hour to deliver my order, but they forgot to bring the drinks I had ordered and refused to redeliver them. They also refused to refund me for them and told me they would put a note on my account so the next time I ordered with them, they would include the 2 drinks that I had paid for. I went to order again tonight and they said they had no record of the drinks I had previously paid for and could not help me out any further. Terrible customer service and I will never order from them again! read more

Best place in town for excellent Italian food. Great customer service with beautiful smiles. Family business worth the sit down.

Walked in without a reservation. Instantly shown to table and initial service was quick and efficient. Ordered wine and was grateful to receive a taste prior to deciding. Nice touch. Bread didn't come in advance as expected but had to be re-requested once mains arrived. Food was ok. Nothing special but nicely presented and tasty. Once mains were done table was half cleared and then .... nothing. Had to ask to have table cleared by which time it was getting too late to contemplate dessert as we had a child with us. Disappointing tend to the experience. Sadly would not recommend based on this one time experience. Hope that this experience was not typical of what to expect at this restaurant. In an area so blessed with an enormous choice of restaurants, competition should keep everyone on their best game. read more

We went on the weekend 20 off us, I went to order and asked for a drink( a can of coke) waited for her to get me my drink while she started getting orders from others I stood there for 5mins, till I got her attention and was promptly told I will bring it too you, 15 mins later I got my GLASS of coke! Where's the can I paid for.? In the glass she said, hmmmm me thinks not! Anyway when we eventually got our food, she passed over people instead of coming to me and placing it infornt of me, it was discussing and one of the girls found hair on her plate, I wished I had read the reviews before we went, never again, waste of time, also I got sick, nothing hurts more than a bad reputation and by the looks off things in the reviews, the BAD outweighs the Good!!!!! read more

Very unhappy. We waited over two hours for our home delivery order with no explanation for the delay provided. When I called to check on our order and complain about the lengthy wait, I was reluctantly offered a refund of the $4.50 delivery fee which was to be provided in cash by the driver (we had already paid via credit card online). When the driver arrived, he didn't have the correct change for the refund and expected us to have change for a $20 note. We didn't have any cash which is why we paid with card in the first place so the driver had to leave, get the correct money and then come back. What a shambles. The pizza was only just warm and very soggy - hardly worth the wait. We will definitely not order from San Giorgio again and if any one else is considering home delivery, I would suggest pre-ordering a couple of weeks in advance. read more

My wife went to San Giorgio on the 6th of Feb 2014, ordered a split pizza when we paid for the pizza we were charged for the most expensive pizza for that size on the menu. When I questioned the staff they said they experienced the same a few nights ago but had no idea why it was happening. Ended up speaking to the supposed owner, who was arrogant, very rude and aggressive. He said that if you order a split pizza then you are charged the most expensive on the list as it's a surcharge, I asked why that isn't listed on their menu and he then told me that it's the customers responsibility to ask not the staff or the establishment to inform customers. I then said that's hardly fair to customers and he replied that if I didn't f***ing leave he would drop me. read more
