Always a pleasure dining at @nidobarpasta If you haven’t had the gnocco fritto then you need to make this a priority! I literally come here just for that…..and the tiramisu. I love how the tiramisu has a denser, sponge-like texture as opposed to soft savoiardi. It gives it this addictive texture and chew and holds its structure beautifully. We enjoyed: Whipped ricotta, black pepper, honey and gnocco fritto Hand rolled ricotta gnocchi, aglio e olio pepperoncino & pangratatta Maccheroni Verdi, lamb ragu, peppers, fermented chilli Tiramisu Looking forward to my next delicious visit

Good food and service in a very cosy spot. Entrees were delightful and full of flavour. The saffron pasta was slightly under seasoned and the barramundi was completely over salted to the point of being inedible (thankfully comped)

Quite a good little dinner spot on King William Road. Definitely worth booking in busy periods as it’s not huge inside and they have seating times to keep the traffic patrons moving along. But the service was fantastic and the food comes out very quick. The food is tasty and we enjoyed it. The whipped ricotta is a well known standout, personally I thought it was ok. Great texture but maybe a touch overrated. And the portion sizes are a touch small in my opinion. Gnocchi was good flavour but expected more of a melt in your mouth type dish. Steak was cooked well (rare) and was tasty but did get a couple fatty bits. Due to all of this, we gave the food a 3/5 but upped the overall rating up to 4/5 due to the great service and nice ambience within the restaurant. Not a bad spot, although I wouldn’t be running back urgently anytime soon. Rough cost per person was about $60-70.

A favorite of ours, nestled into the KW Road restaurant precinct. Walk in on this occasion for a quick meal- sat at the kitchen bar and chatted to the chef. The service was first class, the food familiar and delicious- great flavor in the sauces, and good wine choices. We will be back (again and again).

The ambiance of the place is cozy yet trendy, and the food was quite enjoyable. However, there’s definitely room for improvement when it comes to the service.

Wow! Cool place serving amazing and tasty food to all. I enjoyed some starter then the main. The whipped ricotta with honey was so tasty. There is a limited menu, but a good range of foods and pasta. The tiramisu for desert was delicious! East to find and parking nearby was easy.
