Service was terrible - all staff that were involved in our orders forgot our order, kept bringing out incorrect meals and were rude. The meals we ordered were of very poor quality and very small portions. I ordered amatriciana -- it was tomato, and chunks of leg ham! lacking flavour ( no chilli or garlic!) and very disappointing! another dish ordered was with clams, there were plenty of shells in the dish with very little seafood!!Very expensive -with 2 dishes, garlic bread and 3 drinks =$130!! We were very unhappy with our experience and will not be returning. We went here for dinner with friends.

I'm a big fan of gnocci so might have to test them out. Thanks for the review. I’m a big fan of gnocci so might have to test them out.

My partners lasagne was frozen in the middle and my pasta was tasteless!! We where so disappointed. Oh well you live and learn and we wont be returning and will be sure to tell our friends!

I think a mediocre Italian restaurant certainly can't beyond boiling noodles etc - but there are many excellent Italian restaurants where even the noodle-boiling and sauce simmering is done well! Unfortunately I just don't think in Brisbane Gusto da Gianni is that place....we're on the lookout! Jetsetting Joyce Hi Doug

Not so good:-dip for pane-more balsamic than oil; meatballs dry and tomato sauce too salty; batter for zucchini flower chewy; sliced octopus rubbery, not tenderised. Good:- baby pepper sweet, its tuna and onion stuffing delicious; risotto,al-dente and sweet corn sauce goes well with salty pancetta. One of the best.
