Our table was next to one with a loud baby. We ordered Pizza, Pasta, and wine. We have no complaints about the pizza. Not "jucy" but that is probably just their way. The red ho

The food was plentiful but flavours and seasoning weren't quite right. Enjoyed the open fire.

From the moment we entered Cuginis, we were warmly welcomed. Little pizza sticks with warm tomato sauce was a lovely touch as a starter. Terrific pizza. Will return for mussels

Mussels were small. Pizza is really, though burnt at the ends. Service is excellent. But they didn't have our discount ready and we needed to ask for it and still they got the disc

Enjoyed a late lunch of chilli mussels and lamb shank with mash. Both meals were very tasty but the mussels were smaller than last time I had them.

The food was ok. The service was very poor. We were the first to be in the restaurant and had to wait about 35 mins to take our order and another 1 hour before the food was served.

The pizza and lamb shanks were the stand outs of the meal. Chilli muscles had no chili kick to them. The pasta pescatore and carbonara were bland. My friends gave up trying to fi

Third dish I’ve tried.. the chicken Maryland. Don’t order if you’re hungry. While it was extremely tasty, I think I got 4 bites of chicken! ????

About the restaurant

Taste pizza and pasta just like Nonna makes at new bambino on the Fitzroy block, Cugini's on Nicholson Street. Exposed brick archways, dark wood furniture and copper pendents add a rustic touch to this Italian restaurant, which was formerly two homes converted into a warm and welcoming dining space, ideal for family catchups or a romantic dinner with your special someone. As tantalising aromas waft from the wood-fired pizza oven, settle in with an elderflower Spritz and contemplate housemade pasta plates such as agnolotti, with chicken, ricotta, pecorino Romano, sugo al pomodoro and grated Parmesan. Pick up a slice of Diavola pizza – San Marzano, mozzarella, fior di latte, calabrese salami, pepperoni, capsicum, chilli flakes, oregano and basil – before traditional tiramisu to finish.
