Italian

Since it opened in 2004, a buzzing vibe and consistently excellent fare have earned this fast-paced eatery on one of Brisbane's trendiest dining strips a cult following. Certainly the pizzas are the kind you'd drive across town for, with their perfect crust (so elusive outside Naples) and artisan toppings, woodfired to perfection. The salsicce, with pork and fennel sausage is a highlight as is the margherita - a celebration in simplicity. The rest of the menu is no less enticing with a generous serving of duck ragu atop pappardelle, a house specialty, while the scamorza in padella, smoked mozzarella fried until melting then topped with creamy mushrooms and truffled pecorino, is rich and moreish. Don't be deterred by the 'no bookings' policy, as service is fast-paced and there is plenty of seating both in the moody, modern interior as well as on the terrace. Silky smooth panna cotta soused in macerated raspberries gives the perfect sweet finale.
