Mercato e Cucina

"Authentic Italian cuisine is presented here. High quality ingredients are used. Sadly the pizzas were very greasy and oily. Also I recommend getting the linguine during truffle season. The whole dish is flavoured with truffle and of course several truffle shavings on top. And of course in general the dish is perfect and creamy with al dente pasta. However it is a bit expensive."

"Personally, if felt like a really average meal overall. It’s not spectacular but definitely not bad at all. Probably wouldn’t come back though."

"What a gem of a place and a fantastic new find. As a family we struggle to find something everyone will enjoy equally, and this restaurant really delivered. It was my dads 80th and they really made it special for us. The service for a busy night was friendly, recommendations perfect and always came with a smile and so hospitable. The food was sooooo good! The pizzas fresh, the flavours bursting, light yet satisfying. The pastas cooked to perfection and the deserts just a beautiful finale. The wine list is well priced and good value. Loved it and would come back again. Thank you for making our evening special"

"We went for dinner on Saturday night. We we ordered the staff were up front and honest that there might be a delay of 20-30min for the pizzas on this night, that did have me a little worried at the time that it might be a longer wait but in the end it worked out fine as we ordered the calamari as an entrée. To be honest we didn't notice that there was any delay with the pizzas the entree came not long after ordering and by the time we finished it off the pizzas weren't far behind. The calamari was nice and tender with a light batter cooked to perfection. The pizzas were some of the tastiest we have had in gladesville. We ordered one Del bosco which is the pizza in the photo. The gorgonzola was amazing and balanced the pizza perfectly and the spiced cured pork was amazing. The other pizza we ordered was the Regina which was super tasty with cherry tomatoes, Buffalo mozzarella, rocket, parmigiano and prosciutto. The pizza was nice and fresh giving it a nice contrast to the delbosco. We will definitely be back for more pizzas and to try the pastas."

"We finally visited this place after they finished new renovations. The service was ok. The ambience felt a little lacking actually, with spot light lighting. We were sat on corner table by the fridge where the table wasn't as well lit, but contrasted to the super bright white light of the kitchen hallway. We had the pappadelle ragu and gamberi pizza. Found pappadelle good, but small in portion size. The pizza was underwhelming and base was soggy. Might be from the zucchini and cherry tomatoes, overall leaving flavour. We didn't stay for dessert but the options looked varied."
