Great food, service and ambiance. Always happy to dine there.

Delicious food, lovely ambience, really great atmosphere perfect place to celebrate

First, a confession: Assaggini is one of our favourite restaurants, so we came prepared to be delighted. We weren't disappointed, though! This was a birthday dinner for my partner and the attentiveness of the staff - including a surprise dessert birthday treat - made the occasion special. The menu is always entertaining and innovative. From the oysters with a mignonette dressing and Spanish anchovies we had as entrees, to the char-grilled prawns and pork-belly pasta mains, each dish delighted. Another feature - that we noted - was the pacing. There was plenty of time to chat to each other and savour the occasion. The wines, particularly Polperro's Heathcote Even Keel shiraz, were delivered promptly and complimented the meal beautifully.

My family know as soon as we walk into Doppio and see Frank on the floor that the night is going to be perfect. He's a master of hospitality and king of his trade - pair that with the amazing food coming out of the kitchen plus my fav beer kronenburg 1664 on tap and you're in for a fantastic night out Highly recommend
