Tony will cook you the best pork belly you’ve probably ever had if you call him and pre order it. It’s a big serve though so you had better be hungry.

Having dined here before, we decided on tapas share meals, starting with calamari and olives, followed by the a platter of cold meats and cheeses, just delicious! Washed down with...a bottle of Italian Pasquale Soave dry white wine, ideal with our charcuterie platter. Warm and welcoming owner, Servardi is located just a two minute walk from Beecroft railway station, perfect place to enjoy a great Italian meal.

The atmosphere is lacking, with a cold and bare feeling even in the lounge seating area. Despite asking to keep the windows closed, we still felt cold due to smoke coming from the kitchen. The wine selection was fine, but the food was average and the service inconsistent. While the concept of a wine and tapas bar in the Hills is promising, the execution falls short with uninviting decor and a disconnect from the tapas bar vibe. The website paints a better picture than reality, making our experience disappointing. We do not plan on returning.
