    Went around the corner to this last night. Top notch food it was. Authentic Italian food, great atmosphere very professional and friendly staff. Just wondering what anyone else thought of it if they went?

    There was even a cannoli with my dessert!

    I have no association with this place before anyone thinks I do.

    Haven't had a chance to try it but I have high hopes for this place. An Italian friend knows the owner/chef who is also Italian. He (my friend) has eaten there a few times and has said that the non-pizza dishes are excellent.

    As for the pizza, he said that they're still getting used to the wood fired oven (i.e. a proper pizza oven) but that the quality is improving rapidly and the potential for authentic Italian pizza is huge.

    sounds great - cork has always had a shortage of decent italian retaurants compared with Dublin, waterford & Galway

    When the Brick oven closed i thought i had lost my favourite place in cork for pizzas, i was so happy when La dolce Vita opened and their pizzas are just as good, and their lamb shanks are well worth a try as well. It always seems to be busy when i'm passing by, which is nice to see.

    Even though it's so close to the city centre the location is just that bit out of the way. I think that's what killed off the previous restaurants (was there another one there besides Proby's Bistro and the Brick Oven?).

    Sounds good.
    Proper portions and good quality? (unlike the bucket portions of muck they give you in places like Rossini and Il Padrino!)
