PROFILED BY DE GROOTS MEDIA
Da Nunzio Caffè Bar and Ristorante is one of those rare restaurants in town where the staff take extra interest in the diners, seeing them soon become regulars. Add to this the fact that the quality of food at Da Nunzio puts many of the town’s other Italian restaurants to shame, and it is an obvious pick for those in the area, and equally worth the trip for those who live further away.

Under the guidance of owner and chef Nunzio Raco, the team produces a varied and interesting menu. You cannot go wrong with the home-made pasta dishes such as ricotta cannelloni laced with basil leaves, or the tagliolini pasta with blue swimmer crab, chilli, garlic and olive oil. With its own woodfired pizza oven, the golden-crusted disks must be enjoyed with a great bottle of Italian wine, whether at the restaurant or at home. The Bocelli pizza presents tomato, char-grilled chicken, roasted pepperoni and mushrooms topped with pesto, olives and buffalo mozzarella. Veal scaloppini embodies robust Italian heart whilst the bistecca al forno is Raco’s Italian interpretation of ‘beef and reef’, and is a favourite with most of the regulars. The restaurant also offers a sizeable and tempting dessert menu, beautiful cakes, coffee and cold beverages, and is open for breakfast or all day on the weekends.

Da Nuzio Caffè Bar and Ristorante has passionate Italian charm that will have you returning like an old flame.

Da Nunzio Caffè Bar and Ristorante - User Reviews

Wooly1981:

Disappointing meal here tonight. Once we were seated we were quickly forgotten about. Had to flag down waiter to ask for menus and again to order drinks. Once we ordered bread came out immediately however we then waited for our main meals for an hour and 10 mins. Once they arrived was disappointed, the potatoes served with my chicken dish were stone cold probably due to it sitting in the kitchen waiting for the rest of the food to be ready. Give this place a miss, the service was unattentive and food not worth the wait.review 30/03/2012

With a great location and the opportunity to be a truly exceptional restaurant, I recently dined at Da Nunzio for the first time on a fairly busy Saturday night. It’s a long time since I have been so disappointed with both the service and food and this review is provided as constructive criticism only. One dish (an eggplant/pasta) was completely undercooked and another (lamb cutlets) was so overcooked that we thought they had been reheated. The pear and rocket side salad costing $14.50 appeared as though it had been prepared earlier in the day and was completely overpriced with no redeeming features. The service was non-existent and we had to go inside to find wait staff to serve us. I will try it again, but only because I truly want to believe that my experience was an anomaly!review 06/11/2011
