Extremely noisy, good service, below average food though. Would not consider this to be a Restaurant, it is more an eatery. Considering the blandness of the dishes they serve, it is also overpriced. The "kitchen staff" in the kitchen must be an average cook. My wife and I were very disappointed, and will certainly never return.

Went to this place after being referred. Food is average and "new" fitout is pretty tacky, git a steak and salad. The bread was the best part which lets face it isn't that hard to make, wouldn't go again unless asked by others.

Rapidly becoming a favorite family night out. Great food and consistently good service. The salmon is always perfect. My kids share ribs and there is never any left while the profiteroles are essential for my daughters well being. The staff are freindly and attentive and the spot is a great place to eat out.

I've always had a great meal here, and a good time. My friends always want to know when I'm going to Pinnochios, so they can tag along. A place where all will be comfortable, family and friends of all ages.

The food was nothing special. My steak was actually burnt and my vegetables were also burnt like they had just been put under the grill and not actually cooked. Not really impressed. I had heard good things about the place but wouldn't go back and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Our local Italian joint - home-style cooking, hearty serves and efficient service. Recently renovated to increase space and modernise decor. Much improved but still noisy and always busy, although it has a nice family feel. Not for an intimate dinner or high-end menu. Four page menu with all the classics will please everyone. If only parking was easier *sigh*.

Update: Returned to this place with Neecy and her fam on a busy Friday night - first time here since the refurbishment and the place was packed out. I got to say that it has improved on all fronts. The service was both friendly and efficient, the food delicious with excellent value. I had my usual pasta/prawn with just garlic, herbs and oil dressing while Neecy had the lamb rump while others had the sirloin, bug meals.

All of them prepared well and tasty. It really is a pleasure to have good meals served in decent proportions and under $25 each. I hope this place thrives, they deserve it. Well done. The only complaint is the high noise level from patrons; the chatter seems to echo, perhaps, they could hang things on the walls to absorb some it. We'll be back.

Previous Review - December 2007: Overall not a bad choice, perhaps, a little overpriced. They do have trouble attending to everyone's needs quickly on the busy nights but not from lack of trying. I have sampled their pasta's and cannot find fault while Lil Neecy doesn't mind their veal dishes. Recently we dined there with my mate the Jaaaard and his lovely wife Uma and thoroughly enjoyed the prawn pasta dish, no sauces just served in olive oil and garlic with an accompanying Greek salad.)

We've been regulars here for about 3 years. Sometimes weekly. These guys are the masters of running an efficient, quality suburban restaurant. They always get us in. Food snobs don't bother, it's not that kinda place. It's good Italian pasta, great service, good value. A great local option.

I was a little worried when they expanded but despite the fact it's a bit loud (it always was!), it's still great. I can't go past the Marinara. Literally. It's all I have these days I look forward to it so much. Wine list is reasonable as well.

Dined here last week with friends, we didn't have a booking but were accommodated really easily. Service was friendly & food was delivered quickly - entrees & mains were really delicious, it was really nice to enjoy our meal at a leisurely pace with a bottle of wine without being rushed out. We will definitely be back.
