Puccini's Restaurant

Overall 9.8 - Food 10, Ambience 10, Value 9, Service 10

Having dined at many of Adelaide's good restaurants I approach dining at a 'new one to me' with a little trepidation, suffice to say I have sometimes been very disappointed. Not last week when I visited Puccini's at Parkside however. The restaurant has a simple but elegant and modern feel about it and the buzz of a busy Saturday evening of diners was evident. The menu was, as you would expect for a suburban boutique restaurant, on the small side, but had a good selection spread and gushed quality and Italian 'foody' finesse. The wine list was very extensive and broad-ranging in both variety and price range, and also included some quality Champagnes. Our 3 course meal was eagerly anticipated and it never disappointed. Very good quality, service, and all in all a great night that we will repeat in the future. One of our success stories that we will espouse to our friends and others. Well done Puccini's and keep up the good work!   (norman stevens - See my reviews (2) - February, 2012)

Did not have a very nice meal at all. Service was poor and meal much too expensive for what it was.   (November, 2011)

A little gem in the suburbs. Totally wonderful eating experience. The chef is a genius to say the least. The meatballs are a must, the gnocci is to die for. Definately glad Puccini's has opened in Adelaide. One of the best places to eat in town. Heidi   (Heidi - September, 2011)
