About us
Our quaint family-run Italian restaurant is located in a picturesque area in Tai Tapu
set amongst quiet roads and beautiful fields.
Built in 1875, our iconic and popular venue provides the perfect place to have a quiet Italian meal
or to celebrate in style in cute booths seating up to six people or our private Thief's Room which seats up to 12 people.
We invite you to join us and sample our authentic Italian menu utilising traditional Italian products and recipes paired with beautiful fresh New Zealand-grown produce. We cater for most diets including vegan and gluten-free.
Every Tuesday is Locals' Night! Check our Facebook page for details.
We sell our fresh homemade Dolly's pasta every week, so you can impress your friends
with restaurant-quality pasta from the comfort of your own home.
For groups over 12 guests, you can choose to be seated within the
main restaurant, or outside in the Italian Riviera if the weather is fine.
For larger parties and weddings, please email Lucy and Deep for more details.
