Rabbit ragu was disappointing, meat was tough, tasteless and unattractively flaked (like large brown chunks of tuna), pasta was hand-made but not fresh that day.

Spatchcock was boring, seasoned with salt and pepper, plonked on a bed of mash drowned in olive oil, the whole plate was one colour and flavour, needed some parsley and lemon to liven things up a bit.

Don't get the homemade bread either, very hard and had a fishy aftertaste. The one good thing-complimentary appetiser: warm carrot soup with basil oil, this tasted lovely which made the other items we paid for seem even worse!

Service-attentive and friendly. Atmosphere-dark and eerie (especially when you go upstairs to the toilets).

Loved this place. From the moment we walked in, to the moment we left, we were treated well. We were visiting from Sydney and went for lunch. The lovely Anthony was our waiter and he was incredibly helpful, friendly, polite with just the right level of attention. Couldn't fault him.

We both started with crudo di trota and it was superb. Perfectly flavoured. I then had the wild mushroom risotto - again, beautiful flavours, just the right portion size. My husband had the gorgonzola gnocchi which was light and tasty. We shared a mango all'amaretto for dessert which was a great mix of flavours with the mint and basil in the gelato.

Wine list was good, recommendation by staff was spot on. Total cost was around $200 (four glasses of decent wine) which I think was pretty good value. I'll be back. Thanks Anthony and Geoffrey for a great lunch!

Over priced, very arrogant and rude, food is nothing special, nothing to do with Italian food, ingredient maybe but ambiance is very stiff. Italian food is fun and tasty and they embrace comfort, live to eat and not eat to live. Do not waste your time to go there.

Visited Brisbane and stumbled upon Tartufo. This is seriously good food for those that appreciate Italian cuisine. Service is attentive and sincere. Don't miss the figs, chicken liver pate, rabbit ragu and seafood pastas. Well selected wine list.
