A Taste Of Italy Is Not Just A Pizza Shop
BACK in 2002, our friend and chef Roberto a opened new pizza shop was in the brandnew Clifton Beach Shopping Centre.

He had recently moved to this beautiful part of the country from Melbourne. By day Roberto worked as a labourer in the shopping centre and at night made plans to open his pizza restaurant.
As soon as the dust settled, Roberto’s was opened with an authentic menu that echoed the flavours, smells, and atmosphere of dining in an Italian trattoria.
Many years later Mario and Silvia bought Roberto’s dream and continued building on its success as the local’s favourite place for pizza and pasta, adding table service and a liquor license so guests can enjoy a glass with their lunch or dinner.
After renaming it ‘A Taste of Italy’, they added even more authentic flavours to the existing menu, perfecting dishes featuring fresh local seafood and finding great local produce for excellent Napoli sauce, refreshingly crisp salads, and satisfying antipasti dishes.
With an amazing selection of award-winning pizzas, antipasto share plates, freshly prepared pasta, seafood, salads, and desserts, their family-focused restaurant extends its hospitality to you and your guests to sit, eat, talk, and enjoy.
