We didn't make a reservation as it was a last minute…read moredecision and so when we looked at the restaurants at Top Ryde we thought we'd give this place a go. Although the place was very busy the waiter found us a table for two at the back of the restaurant. The seating was perfect for good conversation without many interruptions. The waiters were very helpful and served with a smile. Non intrusive! The food was delicious and the red wine was of a good age. They obviously don't serve the cheap blends for their house wine, which I was thankful for! They deserved a tip! Which is not always the case in Oz!

A salad with only four little pieces of lamb should never cost $25, no matter how delicious it is. And a few small calamari shouldn't cost that much either. If you're willing to spend money, this is a delicious option. If you're on the cheap side, beware.

I like Mancini's for 4 reasons. It's local. They deliver, even when it's pouring rain outside ( Hey…read morewhy else would you order home delivery pizza when the Pizza shop is literally 10 mins walk from your house) 3. La Potata 4. La Giardino ( hold the capsicum please ) La Potata is an ultimate indulgence. Dont be on a health kick if you order it ( or be cheating on your diet, or have just run a 5km fun run if you have this one ) it is all of the best things in life. Bacon, Cheese, Potato, Spanish onion and sour cream! Lord Jesus take the wheel!! Talk about deluxe. It is just plain delicious. La Giardino is a Vegetarian option. An Option! If you are or have ever been vego ( as I was for 10 years) having actual options is an absolute treat. Eggplant, tomato ( we ask for fresh tomato to replace the capsicum) cheese and mushroom. They have a lot of options! Hurrah! I admit Ive never actually dined in at Mancini's but it is definitely the Hub of Summer Hill village. Along with Da Vinci's next door, it's a Pizza agglomeration. White linen, outdoor tables line the streets in true European style, and it is always very busy and buzzing. Highly recommend it.

It offers a nice…read moreambience with wooden tables, dimmed lights and a large stone oven that is the centrepiece of the restaurant. If you choose to dine al fresco, they have plenty of seats with outdoor heating. However, many families dine here so be wary of a little noise if you choose to dine indoors. Their pizzas and salads are absolutely delicious. As the last reviewer before me said, La Potate is divine. The Meatlovers is also absolutely delicious and packed with meat. However, if you're watching your weight, try a Calabrese salad - the combination of gnocchi and tomato is smooth and delectable. If you want some dessert, they have plenty of gelato and cake on offer.

I'm VERY fussy when it comes to pizza, so Tony who made my pizza tonight has outdone himself. I ordered take away but picked it up in store. It's a very lively little restaurant with an Elvis impersonator just finishing up his set as I walked in. Elvis being the theme of the restaurant of course!

Having put the order through we were shocked that the pizza was so good! Our new local favourite... The ingredients are most definitely super fresh and the food prep looks chef level not cook level - these guys know their pizzas and ingredients very well. It shows in the sight and smell of their pizzas. This store has been formerly known as Elvis's pizza (apparently their for years in Earlwood) then more recently become Jailhouse Pizza with pictures of Elvis Presley all around the dining space they have in store.

This interior was cosy and it had a friendly warm ambience. Great customer service from the minute we walked in to the time we left There was 5 of us so we ordered meatballs, S&P calamari and a cheese and garlic pizza. For mains we had risotto pollo, spaghetti Vitello, seafood and bbq chicken pizzas. The food was delicious and you can watch your pizza being made fresh right beside you which is pretty special. Lovely restaurant but my only criticism is I think it's overpriced for where it is. Enjoyed our night and sipping on Italian wine

Food is always fantastic with great customer service. They do have BYO alcohol but they charge for opening the bottle and the glasses which I found pretty silly.

The restaurant looks renovated with new bathrooms, a beautiful windowed area at the back and some new touches at the front of the restaurant. I ordered penne for my dinner.My father ordered gnocchi with cream. Like I mentioned before the food was delicious. The only minor downside is to get to the back and front area you have to walk through a small space which is wide enough for only one person. This also happens when walking to the bathroom from the front. But when moving through employees always let you through first. Overall Excellent

The only things I could fault: - As a university student, I struggled to find a lot of items that were affordable. The place is considered to be very expensive. However, it is expected - the presentation of the restaurant basically gives this away. - I remember one dish that's as absolutely not worth the price. This was the lamb skewers- Very expensive for such a small serving. Make sure that if you plan to dine in here that you wear fancy clothes

They have 2 seating times on weekends so make sure you book or you're not going to find a free table. I had high hopes for this place and it delivered. Great atmosphere and great Italian service. I loved how the menu was so different from other Italian places I've been to. That being said they have a very extensive menu which made it difficult to choose from. My only complaint would be that our pizza entree was really salty and my duck ragu was a tad salty but the rest of my table loved their choices. The waiter recommended the linguine con salsiccie e porcini and it was a fabulous recommendation. For anyone as obsessed with truffle as I am, this is definitely the dish for you! There will definitely have to be a trip back for round 2!
