Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Madrinaa Italiano presents a mixed bag of experiences, with a clear divide in customer satisfaction.

We note consistent praise for their thin-crust pizzas, described as well-seasoned, crisp, and having excellent flavour.

The availability of gluten-free crusts is a thoughtful addition.

However, the pasta dishes and other mains receive significant criticism.

The Bolognese is cited as overcooked and soggy, while the aglio e olio is reportedly oily and unbalanced.

Risotto has been described as watery and slimy, with seafood that tastes unfresh.

The Caesar salad, too, has been called out for being oversaturated with dressing.

We also note a recurring complaint about a $3++ charge for tap water, which customers felt was not communicated clearly.

While some reviewers highlight friendly staff and an engaging owner, the inconsistency in food quality, particularly outside of pizza, is a concern.

We'd recommend Madrinaa Italiano primarily for its thin-crust pizzas, especially during a relaxed lunch.

Be prepared for potential inconsistencies with other menu items and clarify any charges for water upfront.

What customers say

Madrinaa Italiano receives mixed but generally positive feedback, with many praising the consistently excellent thin-crust pizzas, friendly staff, and welcoming owner.

However, some customers express significant disappointment with other dishes, citing issues like soggy pasta, watery risotto with unfresh seafood, and Caesar salad swimming in dressing.

The practice of charging for tap water without prior communication also drew criticism.

The food here is really disappointing for the price. The risotto was watery, overly soft and slimy, and the seafood didn’t taste fresh at all – it seemed like frozen or glass prawns were used. Truffle…
