Il Baretto - Surry Hills

Delicious authentic Italian place absolute must try the spaghetti alle vongole first place outside Italy I've had it so good. Need to go back to try other Roman favourites like Carbonara and Amatriciana. Short but good wine list and byo also welcome.

Very busy place. We ordered the duck pappardelle and squid ink crab pasta. The duck pasta had like a gravy sauce which I thought was odd for a pasta, despite it being their specialty I think the other meals are much better just because of that sauce. It needed a bit more flavour also. The squid ink and crab pasta was tasty. Looking at other people's food I had major food envy for the prawn pasta though, it looked the best by far.

It's a simple concept here. The menu is on a large piece of butchers paper on the wall. There's a specials menu that's another piece of paper. The list of food options is not lengthy, but there's plenty of choice. They don't stand on ceremony here, but the food and service speaks volumes. We started with a serving of garlic bread while we studied both menu's and made our next selections.

This restaurant is fantastic for family meals. The staff is very friendly and the food is fresh with authentic flavors. Although the menu is not very extensive, it is still great.

This cozy local Italian restaurant serves delicious homemade pasta dishes and fresh salads. I was extremely pleased with my Gnocchi Gorgonzola, although I couldn't help but feel envious of the Papardelle with Duck Ragu. The restaurant does not take dinner reservations, so feel free to come in with your own bottle of wine and remember to bring cash as they do not accept credit cards.
