    Delicious food, menu often changes to surprise us. Pizzas are very good and generously loaded. I especially love the arancinis (recipe changes from time to time) and the chicken breast. Plates are always nicely presented, staff is helpful... the place to have a nice and sophisticated dinner in Ivanhoe East.

    Pigros is great. It was a full night, but the staff were great and didn't even blink. They were friendly and accommodating. The food is fantastic and well priced. Highly recommend the antipasto platter :) Loved the $10 cocktail Fridays 😍. Think it's reasonably priced and on par with other restaurants in the area. Especially considering the highly quality they serve. We'll be back.

    I hadn't originally planned to eat here but rather saw an add for a keyboard piano as I was searching for one. On arrival the lovely owner Rachelle greeted me with such a friendly smile and warm prescence (even though I arrived at a busy time!) Her lovely sons were very helpful and well mannered and at the end of it all, to my surprise, I given a pizza by the family and my goodness it was the best margarita pizza I had. I will definitely be back to eat here with my friends and family, not just because the pizza was so delicious but of the warm and inviting service I received. Will definitely recommend this lovely place. Jess

    Definitely a little underwhelming type of restaurant. Nicely decorated and friendly waiter. We were expecting our food to arrive promptly for which it did. Having attended on the $25 steak night both steaks were cooked well and tasted beautiful. The respective cuts of meat appeared to be of high quality and they were complemented with a side of potatoes and vegetables. However the side quantity was lacking a little but the quality of the cut of meat and it's taste overwhelmingly made up for it. The salad and chips were both fresh and well portioned and everything went well. Along with a glass of wine each the total bill came out to approximately $85.00 which left us satisfied but not bursting at the seams! However, the coffee for which i ordered came out to $4.50 and upon paying with my AMEX I was not made aware that there was a surcharge, it was just automatically added to the bill. I think this is a big letdown and despite it not being a high amount, some notice would have been nice.

    Definitely call and book, I made the mistake of booking online and we where seated outside where it was windy and too cold to take my jacket off, they do have outdoor heating but it wasn't enough. Our table also wasn't set but many around us were including details like candles. We were given food menus when we were seated but when our waitress come back to take our drinks order we had to request to see the drinks menu. But all that aside the food was delicious with generous servings and reasonably priced. I would go back here for a function but not dinner for two, it's a busy bustling atmosphere here.

    Do no skip the entrees. We had the Aranchini balls and they were incredible. The staff were super friendly. They were really busy and they let us know immediately that the kitchen could take a little while to get our mains out. Overall a great experience.

    My burger and fries tasted nice however, there were 7 of us dining. We ordered entrees which came out at different times instead of all at once making us wait 20 minutes from one entree to another and the was served main one hour and forty five minutes..and again same thing mains didn't come out at once..when I mentioned it was taking a long time the waitress rolled her eyes. Some of us enjoyed our meal and some didn't..the stuffed peppers tasted bland and had no flavour at all, the chicken breast with potatoes was extremely dry and the Greek salad was not crisp at all.

    The staff are really lovely, and the food seemed good to most people, but this is not the place for vegans like me. I ordered the only dish they had, a Napoletana pasta, and it was a very small serving compared to others’. The sauce was very sweet, and I still felt very hungry after. This small dish costs around $23.00

    One of the best feeds in the north-east, we had the oysters followed by the steaks which basically melted in you mouth, so delicious. Cocktails were made perfectly & the atmosphere was just right with the lights dimmed with some lovely background music to make the experience unforgettable. Ive also heard the parma & pizza is to die for so I'll be back soon to try them too πŸ™‚

    My partner and I have just moved here from North QLD, the service we received tonight was top notch, very funny and professional. The food was just exquisite, you can see the chefs cooking and creating your dish from your table, love the transparency. Thank you!
