Thanks @Lello 😀 my partner and I really enjoyed your restaurant!
🍝 Food was really nice, our pizza was nice and thin with plenty of toppings.
The pasta was cooked perfectly and tasted great.
💰 Price is on the more expensive side, so stuck to the specials menu this time, but would definitely splurge to try some other meals.
🌃 Lovely romantic atmosphere, lots of seating and a good vibe.
🤵 Staff were lovely, a very warm greeting and table service was good too.

Pretty busy place for weekdays dinner. Better to books your table before. The place is pretty fun and service is pretty good. Good to go after work. Great value too. I highly recommended to try the gnocchi, pizza and lasagna. They were so tasty :)

3.5 star ⭐️
I really really loved the food at Lello so I am going to state up front why they got 3.5 stars from me. Their food took so so so so long to arrive. Between the mains and entrees I think there was a good half an hr in between. At lunch time. In CBD. Not acceptable in my opinion.
On to the food. We had some really good entree specials- the fried zucchini with egg and Parmesan was amazing, so was the mushroom entree with a dollop of goats cheese in the middle. And thank goodness the dollop of goats cheese is in the middle because I don’t normally eat goats cheese.
My friend had a mint and potato ravioli thingy which sounds weird but tasted amazing, and my ragu pasta was really delicious as well.
Shame about the time taken to get the food out though, I would have loved to try their dessert.

The food is very tasty. The pasta was filled with potato and mint 😋 The zucchini flowers stuffed with cheese were delicious, but my favourite from the entree were the croquettes stuffed with pumpkin 🤤
I’ll definitely go back to try the other pastas 😄

We were very hungry and were quite pushed for time, but stumbled upon this restaurant and were served immediately, with complementary bread to keep us from going crazy! The food came very quickly and was extremely delicious, really well presented and high quality. The staff were very understanding and nice which really made the experience as positive as it was.

Service is friendly and the food gives Italy a run for their money. The pasta are all hand made including the gluten free ones, it was so good I thought they had given me normal pasta by mistake. The pizza was also flawless - thin but crispy and chewy base, toppings are well thought out. If you like reds, go for the Chianti Classico from Tuscany. I'm definitely coming back here

We were a group of 7 booked over the holidays. The restaurant was very accommodating of several number changes within hours of our booking. We had loads of room, and the venue is well laid out (you don't feel cramped at all). You can also hear one another as it isn't a loud venue.
We had their $60pp chefs menu and it was sooooo tasty and so much food. We started with their cheesy garlic pizza, stuffed zucchini flowers and charcuterie platter with terrific cured meats. That was a ton of food. Then we had a break before we got the rabbit and pasta...the most moist pleasant rabbit I've had! Following that was the duck with crispy skin on a delicious cabbage salad, plus a green salad and two bowls of chips (that was the only strange part of the meal that probably could've been skipped). The dessert was a lovely semifredo with cookie and caramel, and some pistachio cannnoli.
We were all well filled and loved the dishes. Highly recommend this place!!!

GOOD QUALITY ITALIAN CUISINE
We dropped in without a booking before a show at the Regent Theatre one Saturday night at 6 pm. They were happy to seat us and have us finished by 7:15 for our show.
We got the table right next to the viewing window into the kitchen - was fun to watch the busy staff preparing the meals. reassuringly, the kitchen staff looked both happy and focussed on their creations :)
Our waitress did a great job of introducing us to the restaurant and the menu, even more impressive as it was her first night!
The restaurant is fairly large but it wasn't at all noisy and there is enough space between tables (for two) to allow you privacy for your conversation.
We were going to order two entrees but on the waiter's advice that entree serves are quite large we settled on sharing a calamari between us for entree. As you can see in the picture it was enough for two.
I had the gnocci with rabbit ragu. The gnocci was delicious in texture and flavour. the rabbit was tasty but slightly salty for my taste (my partner thought it was just right!). Partner had the delightful vegetarian culurgiones, a sicilian stuffed pocket pasta. It had an amazing texture and a delicate flavour. We shared a fennel and orange salad
I had a glass of Australian pinot grigio and we shared sparkling water.
The bill was just over $100 for the both of us.
Despite our limited time, the food came out with good timing and we were out the door in good time for our show.
Toilets are up some fairly steep stairs and quite a walk so may be difficult for people with mobility issues. Not especially wheelchair friendly as it has split level floors.
Overall a very good experience.. we'll be back again!
