    This restaurant perfectly executes traditional Italian dishes. No stupid modern twists, just pure recipes from the North, Central and Southern regions of Italy. From the Iberico with Melon to the Pork neck with polenta, each dish delivered incredible flavour and freshness, ESPECIALLY the tuna. Couldn’t fault the service, our waitress was attentive and more than happy to accommodate for gluten intolerance. I highly recommend this restaurant for a true experience of authentic Italian cooking. Definitely worth the 3 month wait and look forward to dining at Neptunes Grotto again.

    My girlfriend and I had the most wonderful anniversary dinner here last night, one year since we had our first date at the exact same restaurant. The food was just as amazing as we both imagined, and the service was exceptional too. We’re both gluten free and we love that Ragazzi make pasta that we can eat, and we had BREAD?!?! that stuff literally made us speechless!! Best gluten free restaurant bread we’ve both ever had. Can’t wait to book dinner here again very soon.
