Great old style italian restaurant. Enjoyed the food and the service. Would definitely recommend for someone looking for home style food! Well done.

Nice restaurant in the middle of nowhere (adelaide!). Pizza's were very good except they had 2 pizzas with different names but almost exactly the same ingredients which we accidently ordered. (I ordered one and my sister-in-law ordered the other without checking with each other). Bases are good, but small.
Gelato was not, it was ice cream dressed as gelato.

Great atmosphere, with alfresco dining (which we did). Service was very good too, we had a very friendly lady who spent time talking and playing with my 4 year old daughter. A little pricey, but still very nice place.

How could you fault a restaurant that has been serving customers for 40 years and still going strong. That is consistent! I love this old place great food and atmosphere, can't get those old school Italian waiters anywhere else. Food and service is always great, you can't go past La Tratt for a late night pizza. There is always a crowd and sometimes someone famous. They just had Kevin Rudd in, that photo and the others are all up on the wall as you come in.

Ate there last night. Had mussels to share, these were very small surprisingly but they were very nice. Garlic bread was perfect! Also had veal with avocado and seafood, it was sensational. Service was excellent, very experienced waiting staff and very quick service. The price was a little steep, but the taste and service out weighed that. Going back on 13/2 for a work dinner and can't wait! I highly recommend this place.

Well known old Adelaide favourite close to the Courts precinct that never fails to please. The traditional style pizzas are the best you'll find anywhere, and in fact one of their other funky dessert pizzas recently won 1st prize in an international pizza making competition culminating in New York. Brilliant home style polo (chicken) dishes too and top class steaks.

Lovely, old warm and friendly setting adds to the experience. The waiting staff are highly experienced and very attentive to your needs although tend to argue with each other a bit in Italian within earshot of patrons. Great traditional home cooked style Italian food, which used to be well priced, but at our most recent visit this week we found prices had risen significantly and probably not quite justified by the overall food quality, they're a tad on the high side now nudging $40 for a steak, which has turned me somewhat luke warm to rush back.

A Melbournian dining with us suggested his pasta dish was too salty, although we did note he polished it off pretty damn quickly!

Took my family here to enjoy some good honest Italian cuisine. The service was very attentive however the pasta was bland and below average. My wife commented that she could do better with a bottle of sauce and some pasta from Woolworths. Unfortunately I would have to agree with here after trying the pasta here.
