La Porchetta Pizza Restaurant

Great food and fantastic service at a reasonable price. A friend recommended the place to me a couple of years back, I have been going ever since. Consistent quality and great value all round.

Had been here couple of time with my friends. Like their pasta very much and their pizza are well enough. Will defiantly be back.

Food was good I do prefer some of the other branches like the one in Parnell as it seems more authentic for a dining experience and it was a busy night so we had to wait quite a while to be served which was a little disappointing. I had Fettuccine which had a good portion which was nice.

I know they're not exactly 5 star - but they are one of the few restaurants I've come across in the city, who can actually cook my steak medium rare. It's really good value for decent food that will really fill you up - seriously, the plates are big. I wouldn't dine unless I had missed breakfast & lunch or if you're with someone who can help finish off your plate. Great service and there is some parking available (you'll need to go into the restaurant first to validate your parking). I don't understand the packet tomato sauces on the plates when most of the meals come with some sort of dressing/freshly made sauce? Very kid-friendly too.

A bit of a disaster for Italian food really. Known for big portions but have been a couple of times and not impressed. I got a pasta which had avocado listed as part of the dish. There was no visible avocado and they fed back that it was all mixed in to the sauce and then chucked in a teeny fingernail bit of avocado in there. What was that. There is only the one pasta dish I ever get when I go there. The Ponsonby branch once did a stuffed pizza which was really good and it was like a pizza pie. I had the same thing at another branch and that was serioiusly a disaster and disappointed, a flat thing.
