Since 2010, Briscola has firmly established itself on the Canberra food scene and is arguably this town's most popular Italian restaurant.

The “old fashioned” is evident in the service with Gianni and his incredible staff focusing on giving the diner a charming experience.What sets it apart is how they transport you to Italy. Start with an aperitivo to open the palate, enjoy a local or Italian wine varietal and finish with a soothing digestive.Briscola is situated conveniently in the heart of the city near hotels and public transport.Sit inside or alfresco, Briscola seems to suit anyone… families, young couples, group functions and corporate luncheons.

    The staff are friendly and efficient. The schnitzel pizza and burger were absolutely delicious. The sides weren’t as good. The veges were soggy and overly sweet. The chips were a bit under cooked and just not amazing, the mushroom gravy wasn’t great. It spoilt the delicious fresh crispy schnitzel. We will go back for the mains though, they were excellent. Hopefully they can change some practices with the sides to make them 5/5 as well. Good pub meal. Worth it.

    My wife and I dined at Bicicletta for a special anniversary last night. Besides the great food (the ravioletti was to die for!), the team in general and Sammy in particular were so lovely and attentive. Sammy organized a special desert for us to request and took extraordinary lengths prior to our booking to make sure the evening was atmospheric and memorable. We'd thoroughly recommend Bicicletta and their wonderful team for a delicious, warm dining experience in a casually elegant setting.

    The steak, spatchcock and octopus was well cooked and beautifully flavoured and balanced with all the ingredients on the plate. To add to the delight was how well the vegetables were cooked and flavoured.
