Delicious and authentic Italian food. If you eat nothing but the Ricotta and spinach dumplings, you'll leave happy. The spaghetti sofritto is to die for as well.

Had lunch on the verandah, then back for a celebratory dinner with family. Food and service were perfect. Highly recommend and very dog friendly, so you can combine with a walk along the Huon River at Franklin. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: A$40–60 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The food is fresh, locally sourced and always outstanding. We have driven down from Hobart 3-4 times to eat lunch here and every time we have run into other people from Hobart. It’s says a lot that Hobart locals are travelling 40 minutes down the Huon to experience this amazing little find.
