The best restaurants serving Italian food in Christchurch South West

We bought the 3 course meal for 2 with wine. It was excellent quality and good value for money. There is an excellent selection of Italian foods for purchase, some making excellent gifts. We will definitely visit again!

Absolutely 💯 the best pizza in Christchurch visiting again tonight good ingredients made with ❤️

The cheese, the meats, and the incredible wine is worth going for alone. However, the staff are really what makes this place what it is. They make you feel like you’re life long friends, laughing and sharing stories with you throughout the evening. Recommending which wines to try as they get to know you. It really does feel like being in a small cheese and wine bar in Italy. Lucy in particular is worth a special mention. What a gem of a human she is!

Excellent cosy and welcoming bar (by evening). I had some delicious porter, but there's plenty of other quality ales on offer.

Absolutely LOVE this place. Best brunch for miles around and the coffee is outstanding. Total gem of a place with cracking food and lovely staff. Always look forward to going and never disappoints.

Bruschetta arrived without the tomatoes, sad

Lovely large restaurant. Very clean and inviting. Staff absolutely brilliant.

A cosy atmosphere, the best of the prezzos! The loviest staff with delicious food and beautiful decorations. Such a shame it is closing, it will be surely missed, has always been the one to go to for birthdays and special occasions! Thank you to Jane and all the staff.

Back in the day this restaurant used to be one of the best in Christchurch. On and off I have been frequenting it for 40ish years. This time though very disappointing. This is supposted to be an authentic Italian restaurant but I'm afraid serving pizzas on mass produced chewy bases is not my idea of authentic! I'll be steering clear in the future.
