I love this place. Italian style pizza and pastas that are totally finger licking good... Hehehe. Alfredo with extra bacon was yummy and hubby says his pizza was just the best. Cool spot, was packed but with enough space to move around and have a good Lough without annoying the people close to you. I always come here.

Wanted to go there for a long time. Melanzane delicious and my veal saltimboca was good. Nice open area to have relaxed meal. And pavlova with berries just the thing to end off the meal

At arrival I bumped my head hard against the sunshade pole. They did not raise it high enough. They saw me bumping my head but did not offer apologies and even worse did not raise the pole higher by tightening the cords.Then when we ordered tea they said it is impossible to make tea because their cappuccino machine broke.When I called the manager and explained to him that they can simply boil water it was as if he was not really willing to do that. Then agreed. Then later the waiter came and said that boiling water will take time.Food was good but pizza was average.

This has got to be one of the best places, i frequent it often. The waiters are super friendly, not overbearing, the Managers pay attention to detail and will not hesitate to make you feel at home. The Owners are simply put, awesome. In general La Cantina always feels like home away from home.You Guys Rock !

Nothing special. Good value for money! Nice food it seems. Pizza was way above average. Lots of secure parking. Lots of waiters so the night get busy, I was there for lunch on a week day. They need another delivery entrance though and their facilities need a deeeep clean.

We booked this place for a very special family gathering. Unfortunately they were not geared to deliver good service and food. We had to ask repeatedly for glasses after they eventually brought jugs with water. We waited very long for our food and then it came in drips and drabs. They actually lost one of our orders so one person in our group did not receive food at all. I ordered the chargrilled chicken breast. It was as flat as a piece of leather and tasteless. With a very ordinary Greek salad. I would not recommend this place at all.

I have been here previously, and returned to enjoy the sunshine on the stoep which runs along the front of the building. The restaurant was not busy, so that service was fast. The food was also rapidly prepared and tasty. There is reasonable space for children to play in the garden, which also contains pub-style long tables and seats. A versatile place to eat, but prices of everything except pasta and pizza are steep.

Convenient location, reasonable amount of parking, large portionsWent for breakfast and had a pleasant experience. Was not exactly bowled over by the variety nor creativity in the menus but what was on offer was fairly standard and reasonably priced, if slightly heading to pricey.Food was good, took slightly longer than expected to arrive. Portions were quite large. Service was average.
