La Porchetta Restaurant Dunedin

"Really bad. A hand full of chips and a tiny chicken Parma. All for $35. The chicken was really dry and lacked flavour. If I was asked how much it was worth, I'd say $20 maximum. I won't be back. Sad because it used to be good."

"I had a great dine-in experience here. The atmosphere was very good and the servers were very polite and helpful. Unfortunately I ordered a main gnocchi dish and got a spaghetti starter instead but i was hungry enough to not care or say anything. Regardless the pasta was delicious and the restaurant was also able to provide complimentary parmesan to accompany my meal. The portion size of the hot chips for a starter was big and great value. Thanks for the great hospitality!"

"We were at Porchetta once again this Friday at lunch. It was a great experience once again - from being greeted at the door to starters coming fast and a great time. The ambience is quite nice as well. I took their beer on tap (single choice - makes it easy), potato wedges were nice and crispy and finally the vegetarian pizza. Will be back soon !"

"Had to take back chicken salad as was dry and flavorless. Then when we ordered drinks for the table the waitress forgot to bring mine and my husband's drinks. When we informed her of this she was apologetic but told us to sit back down to get free drinks, but by this stage we were all over being there and left. Unfortunately the food and service was not up to any standard so we will not be going back anytime soon."

"Disgusting food. I think the pictures speak for themselves. Meat was so dry and the ribs tasted off. The “dip” was feral. The pizza was stale. The chips and onion ring were soggy. The pasta was like slop with a bit of salmon. Service and atmosphere were fine but nothing can make up for this atrocious “culinary” experience."
