La Notte Uno Lake Munmorah — Restaurant in New South Wales

When we got to the resturant we were greeted and asked if we had a reservation and i said yes, there wasnt a table reserved for us, so why go to the trouble of making a booking only to find out a table had in fact not been reserved also when we arrived we were told we should take a photo of the specials board and then we were sat down at our table and the waitress had said she would be right back with our table water, 20mins later after chasing it up we finally got it, Ordered an irish coffee......the coffee was burnt which made it very very bitter do not recommend. Also ordered the penne Bolognese, sauce tasted like it was from a jar very bland and had almost no flavour and the pasta not cooked properly, Don't get me started on the Fettuccine boscaiola. Pasta was not great, and sauce wasn't much better either. When it came to the Arancini balls, the only thing I could taste was the oil they were cooked in. I could understand if they were fully booked and run off their feet, but that wasn't the case at all this night. At the end we asked for the bill only to be told to head to the bar to pay. This is 'resturant' only in name. Not service, quality of food or atmosphere. All in all, I do not...

Ordered Seafood Marinara Penne and a Supreme Pizza. Pasta was average, with no mussels, couple of prawns, cut up crab stick and a couple of pieces of fish in a tomato sauce, very little, if any, chill and average amount of garlic. I never typically add seasoning but needed to add salt and pepper. There was no garnish on the meal, so looked very bland. Was not offered parmesan cheese or other type of topping. Half way though meal tried to get the waitresses attention to no avail. Ended up going to kitchen window and asked some parmesan as the meal needed something to lift it. Unfortunately, it never turned up! Pizza had a good amount of topping and was served nice and hot. Dough was a little chewy but overall well cooked. We tried to get the waitress' attention again to take the remainder of pizza away but once again, unable to get anyone's attention even though they were wiping down tables. Atmosphere was good, not overly loud, good spacing between tables and steady stream of customers. This place has potential but needs to improve flavour profiles, presentation, and service. Left...

Our first visit here. Very busy when we went. I had the spinach and ricotta ravioli special and my husband had the ribs. He did enjoy them however they were a bit dry and it was lucky he had a lot of rib sauce served on the side. I enjoyed the pasta. It was served in a very homely style manner which I didn't mind at all. The food tastes homely too but it's still enjoyable. We also had cheese and bacon arancini entree and thankfully only ordered 2 coz they're quite large and served with a small side salad. Crust was a bit too thick but still very tasty. Cocktails were nice. A good sized free parking lot available, but on a very busy night you may need to park on residential street. Alot of dining space. Can be a bit loud if there's a lot of diners. Considering how busy it was, we didn't have to wait too long for our meals. We will go back to try other things. Is nice that the owner and/or chef walks around to say a quick hello to everyone. I've given 3star overall rating, it is a nice little place but on this occasion we didn't experience anything too flashy but still...
