What Loren Holdaway doesn't like about Chianti:
Enjoyed a birthday dinner here and food was delightful. Had their black pasta with blue crab swimmer topping, catch of the day fish, some steak and a salad to add on the side. Taste wise 4/5 Price wise 4/5 A little downside is usually a lot of the fancy Italian places I have been would give bread sticks and vinegar oil dip for free, but it's not the case here. You have to pay for everything except the free candle on... View all feedback. What Susan H likes about Chianti:
What a superb Italian restaurant! Perfect ambience:a cosy warm gas fire centrally located in the brick walled restaurant, attentive, knowledgeable, professional and friendly staff, absolutely delicious, fresh food, ALL delivered to the diners’ simply styled table: what more could a visitor or local want? A “must-do” restaurant: definitely recommended! View all feedback.

Chianti offers a mix of reviews, with some diners enjoying delightful food for a birthday dinner, while others were disappointed by salty and undercooked dishes. Some guests found the portions small and were unhappy about being charged for bread and sparkling water. On the other hand, many praised the excellent service, decor, and authentic Italian food. The restaurant seems to excel in lunch and breakfast as well, with patrons appreciating the delicious dishes and welcoming staff. Overall, Chianti appears to be a solid choice for an Italian dining experience in Adelaide, with highlights such as the generous truffle pasta and friendly service standing out among the reviews.
