10/10My friend and I came to Cugini’s for dinner on Wednesday night! We shared 2 gluten free pizzas and they were absolutely delicious - likely one of the best gf pizza bases I’ve had. Although probably could’ve had a little more cheese on top to secure the toppings. The staff were very friendly and venue looks very cute. We were very lucky to get the discount via the fork, but either way, I’d likely come back to try some of their other dishes!

10/10Amazing Italian! The Pizza made my eyes close with appreciation and the pescatore pasta delectable. To pair with a bottle of prosecco it was a match! Loved the decor and ambience too. Will be back!

8.5/10Food was great, service was great, however through no fault of their own the restaurant was short staffed when we were there. The staff were friendly, courteous and professional and did an awesome job on a busy Saturday night.

10/10As an Italian, I tend to avoid going out to eat Italian - it never measures up! This isn't the case at Cugini's, and I've got every intention of organizing a larger family dinner some point very soon. Fantastic gnocchi, eggplant parma's, and nailed the sauce. Also a really good drinks menu - try some of their cocktails!

10/10Excellent food, service and ambiance. My husband and I enjoyed the antipasto a pizza the veal scallopini and the broccoli pasta. The past was so fresh and had a casalinga taste. We left nothing. My husband is very fussy and I brought him here for fathers day and he really enjoyed it. Thank you.

About the restaurant
Taste pizza and pasta just like Nonna makes at new bambino on the Fitzroy block, Cugini's on Nicholson Street. Exposed brick archways, dark wood furniture and copper pendents add a rustic touch to this Italian restaurant, which was formerly two homes converted into a warm and welcoming dining space, ideal for family catchups or a romantic dinner with your special someone. As tantalising aromas waft from the wood-fired pizza oven, settle in with an elderflower Spritz and contemplate housemade pasta plates such as agnolotti, with chicken, ricotta, pecorino Romano, sugo al pomodoro and grated Parmesan. Pick up a slice of Diavola pizza – San Marzano, mozzarella, fior di latte, calabrese salami, pepperoni, capsicum, chilli flakes, oregano and basil – before traditional tiramisu to finish.
