Popolo

Pricey for what it is — always walk out with a minimum bill of $ 80 for 2 people. The venue itself and ambient music itself is great. Food is always consistent — always a great place to relax with friends over.

Mmm mmm mmm… deeelicious!
I had my reservation at first when I was walking towards this place, it is kind of middle of nowhere between fancy apartments and car dealership. But once I sat down inside, all my worries melted away (with the help of a Bellini, but details schmetails…) The food was absolutely Devine. The burrata was simple but very well balanced, the fregola pasta was so tasty I can’t even, the spatchcock was cooked just right and the pannacotta with poached peach and prosecco jelly… let’s just say it was as delicious as it sounds. Drinks were great as well, negroni was on point and the recommended wine went down very well. It was packed on a school night, mostly suits, but the waitstaff were very attentive and friendly. Good for groups and dates.
It’s out of the way and parking can be painful, but this place is definitely worth the extra few mins drive.

Where to start with this place! I was impressed by the well presented, good tasting and not cheap but not overly priced food! We reserved a table for 7 people and once seated they gave us some fresh and soft complementary bread with some olive and salt which we ate with some wine we ordered. The wine here is really nice! We asked for a recommendation and it was really good! The menu has a good range to choose from including pastas, pizzas, proteins such as fish, spatchcock, steak, and veal. We ordered something from every section and couldn’t fault any of it. The desserts were a looker and very tasty too. The ambiance was lovely with dim lighting and relaxing background music. Will definitely come again, for sure!

Lovely Italian food — entrees, mains and pizzas can’t be beat. Everything I’ve tried, I’ve enjoyed. My absolute favorite entrée is the Burrata mozzerella and tomatoes — it’s a must dish. {izzas are woodfire Italian style with a yummy bubbly crust. The menu changes slightly seasonally and prices are competitive for area.
The location is convenient to the city and just outside the cross city tunnel near the Lexus & MB dealerships.
Bar seating is welcoming to the single diner and ample indoor and outdoor seating for groups.

Odd place for a restaurant– right across from the Lexus dealership and somewhere in no man’s land between Rushcutters and Paddington, but it was quite busy at 6:30 on a Friday night.
I was pleased with the service and really appreciated that our server brought samples of different wines until I found something that I liked.
The standout dish of the evening by far was the Burrata entrée. I’d never had burrata before, but think the creamiest mozzerella you’ve ever had. The accompanying tomatoes were perfectly seasoned with basil and oil and it really was an amazing dish.
I was underwhelmed by the rest of the food– two girlfriends got pasta dishes that seemed to lack seasoning (the overall taste was good, but just a bit bland) and my lamb was fairly fatty, which made for some unpleasant chewing experiences.
It’s pretty expensive as well, so I would have expected better mains, and it certainly did not seem to live up to the hype I’d heard about this place. I was bummed leaving because I thought it could have been a great place just around the corner from my house to frequent a lot, but sadly that won’t be the case.

We planned a dinner here after hearing it was one of the top 10 Pizza places in Sydney. First impressions were hmmm right out side of a car dealership… seems an odd place but I’m sure there is a demand for it in the area. We walked in to great service, all staff were very polite and attentive. We all had pizzas and enjoyed the fantastic Wine list (All Italian wines). Everyone in there were our age group (40+) not many hipsters here. Just locals who enjoy good food and wine. Pizza was how Pizza should be, wine was great accompaniment. Would I head back? If I were a local yes and that’s what matters.

If you’re looking for great customer service then walk AWAY, perhaps RUN because you will not find it here. What a pity, I was really excited to try what looks like a fun discovery in Darlinghurst but instead was met with one of the most arrogant wait staff I have ever encountered. Our waiter made us feel like we were doing a huge disservice by asking him challenging requests like «can we get some water for the table» Even our fair query «my friends allergic to shellfish can we confirm there’s no fish in the stock?» was met with disdain. The arrogance left a stench that ruined the night — we were all unimpressed — never again.

Nice spot with an unfortunate outlook — straight into the Lexus dealership! But nevertheless not all bad — the staff are attentive, and service good.
We really enjoyed a lunch here — the zucchini flower entrée was smart, the cuttlefish salad for a starter looked huge to me, and loaded with both cuttlefish and potatoes.
Pizza was fresh, tasty, crust thin and crispy, somehow mine was finished in a flash! Washed down with a couple of beers on a hot Sunday afternoon — hard to beat if you are local.
