I have lost count of how many times I have eaten here. I go with friends and family and itâs seems to have become our âgo toâ place. The service, location, menu choices and food are excellent. I hope it never changes. And, if you never eat anything ever again it has to be the mushroom and asparagus risotto, it is to die for!Thank you Laura, for your kind words and for taking the time to review us. It is greatly appreciated. I look forward to meeting you one of these day. I will share your feedback with the team and they will love it.

The Rustic Olive is a family owned, authentic Italian restaurant with a modern flair. Offering your favourite pastas, pizzas, seafood, risottos, salads, and steak, there is always something for everyone. With so much on offer, itâs difficult to save room

We have visited the Rustic Olive several times and i think it is worthy of a review and congratulations on the quality of service and food on offer ... the position allows for that people watching and fab seaside views... The redcliffe parade position allows for open air dining... We were a larger group who need reserved tables which was no problem and with the prior notice allow staff to meet our needs and provide great service...

Excellent location and nice looking restaurant. We went with the $55 per person banquet and changed the duck liver to the croquettes. Flexibility there was good. Really enjoyed the food. Figs were amazing as was the roasted capsicum with chorizo. Sangria also delicious. We liked all the food. Meet sooo tender. Attentive wait staff. Canât complain. Iâd definitely come back. Really enjoyed it. Certainly a different/standout experience to the new restaurant in James Street the night before where the table service was woeful and they forgot to place our order with the kitchen.

The restaurant was VERY busy, we had our starters which were delicious, but somehow our mains order was lost, so we waited and waited. When brought to their attention they immediately rectified, were very apologetic and went above and beyond to compensate. All the food was excellent, the ambience was lovely, the staff great - I think our delay was a one off that was handled perfectly by the manager. I would not hesitate to visit again or recommend.

Iâm a regular at this place and brought my partner to celebrate his birthday. After being seated inside next to two couples with 3 children (including a crying newborn) we moved outside to get some quiet time. The carpaccio was tasteless, followed by a veal chop (greasy and covered with tasteless breadcrumbs) and the duck, which was Ok according to my partner.Service was very good and the pleasant waitress looked after us well. She convinced us that the banana crepe brûlée would be âcracking goodâ and we were not disappointed in the quality although the size was very small.We took our own wine and had less than 1.5 bottles for which we were charged $40 corkage. (Far more than the $9.5 that another reviewer was charged.)Overall the food was just ok, if on the bland side, but certainly not the usual standard.

We came here after reading the positive reviews on TA. We were not disappointed.We shared a spinach feta pide which was really really good. The meat platter was absolutely amazing. Our fave of the three was chicken. We didn't get dessert but received two baklavas with the bill. They were the best baklavas I've had in my life. Overall a perfect experience. We will definitely be back!

Tartufoâs menu is classic Italian! Inspired inspired by chef & owner Tony Percuoco's home town, Naples, and the surrounding regions of Tuscany, Umbria and Abruzzo, each decadent dish is designed to achieve visual beauty, texture, acidity, balance and enjo

Last minute decision for an Italian dinner! The pasta was al dente and perfectly cooked. The mushroom pasta just needed a touch more salt or cheese but was other wise delicious. The chicken pate was amazing. The veal entrée (with mayo, tuna etc) was alright but I was expecting more flavour. Service was great at the start, but as the night got busier we were waiting longer and longer for food. All up I think we spent 2 hours there - mainly waiting for our food to come out... If you are ok with eating early, get there before it gets too hectic!

We stayed for one night locally so looked for a restaurant within easy walking distance of our hotel.The Casa Nostra was only 400 metres away and we were impressed with the contents of the Trip Advisor reviews from other diners.We certainly made the right choice. The service was great, the ambience spot on and the food was excellent. I had the Linguini Gamberi and my wife had a risotto.Both were generous portions, full of flavour and freshly made.The only slight gripe is the price of wine. I think the cheapest bottle was $46 and our choice came in quite a bit higher. How about a more reasonable vino della casa?All in all a very good and seemingly popular restaurant. Weâd go back.

Today we had a family lunch at Mado and it was absolutely wonderful. The service was beyond helpful, super friendly and fun. We had trouble deciding on a menu so we went with the recommendations of âthe houseâ and it was all absolutely delicious. Weâve decided all our Brisbane get-togethers should be at this place. Thank you so much!
