Borsa Pasta Cucina

Reviewed By Cheryl G

Our hotel recommended this family restaurant. It had very good pizza with all sorts of toppings we got one that had four different kinds to try. It was all very tasty. We had the draft beer too to go with pizza of course. It was an interesting walk we went right by the bronze pigs in the trash cans. Only in Aussie land.

Reviewed By Carol W

Dined here last Monday night with a group of friends. Husband and I shared the Lamb Shouder with rosemary potatoes and vegetables. It was a decent size, well presented and ooooh so tender. Excellent food and wine menu. All our friends enjoyed their meals. Well worth a visit. We will return.

Reviewed By perthminxy

After reading amazing reviews we decided to visit this little restaurant on a Saturday night for a second sitting.stafff were very attentive from the start.they recommended the fiso menu however we were worried it might be too much food so we order things to share.The food we received was all delicious but the highlight was the gorgonzola dolche polenta.it was the best polenta I have ever had.so smooth and creamy and delicious.we also shared a chocolate and nut canolli.the canolli shell was soft and so fresh.i loved this little restaurant and will definitely return next time I travel to Adelaide.

Reviewed By AstroBloke

My son and I had dinner there this evening. We had the scaloppine alla romana and the lasagna and both were delicious. Serves were generous and the prices very reasonable. Service was friendly and quite quick, especially as they were very busy.My only gripe is that it was very noisy, making conversation difficult.

The Messy Tomato

Welcome to The Messy Tomato. Much of Italian life revolves around the family dinner table. It’s well known that Italians are deeply versed in the gioie della tavola, or “the joys of the table.” Perhaps the first thing people think of when they think of It

Reviewed By Grunter2014

Found this little gem on TripAdvisor. From the start we knew it was a winner. Funky takes on brekkie, the flavours were fresh and different to what you would normally see but truly delicious. The coffee was great and the service spot on. We even got some recommendations based on local knowledge. And the Central Markets are worth a visit

Reviewed By sch8475iay

I was a little worried when my boyfriend's family said that they had chosen to Enzo's this week as I noticed that the only vegan food mentioned on the online menu were side dishes/starters.I was pleasantly surprised when they waiter told me that nearly anything on the menu can be altered to be vegan, including the gnocchi! I was even offered vegan cheese in place of regular mozzarella. They have many gluten free options as well. Overall, the service and food were fantastic, and everyone i dined with thoroughly enjoyed their meal. I would recommend anyone to come and dine at Enzo's, as it was an experience that we all enjoyed.

Tony Tomatoes

Reviewed By tav007

It’s almost a victim of its own success. It was a really busy Sunday night and it was SO noisy! Our little table of four could barely hear ourselves above the hubbub. I appreciate that it’s a “happy” noise, but it was very trying. As far as the food goes, some good, some not so... The pork rib ravioli was declared delicious. I opted for the special pizza - pork belly, tomatoes, cheese. Sounded interesting but it disappointed. The first issue was that the toppings made the base soggy, a mortal sin for pizza. I couldn’t pick up a slice without it collapsing and losing the topping. Then the other issue was a lack of flavour. A few scattered cherry tomatoes didn’t cut it and nowhere near enough cheese. A good idea lost in execution. Maybe a lesson to stick to the classics. Then the desserts - brilliant! Probably the best tiramisu I’ve had in years. Rich, tasty and a very generous serve. It’s uber trendy right now. Not sure I’d rush back.
