I don't usually write reviews but often in life, people are quick to criticize but rarely give praise. In this instance i wanted to give praise because credit should be given where credit is due. I have never dined in at Topolinis so cannot comment about the place or service, to be fair. However, i have Uber Eats ordered food from them on several occasions over the past 5 years or so and recently ordered yesterday. Warwick shopping complex feels a little run down and lacks a bit of atmosphere and energy which is probably why i never took Topolini's very seriously in the past, but always recall enjoying the food. I had to write this review today because i have ordered Italian delivery from a number of "high end" western suburbs restaurants and i was never really fully satisfied with the quality. Topolini's however has flavor and tastes like it is made with love, yesterday we tried the Penne Arrabiata, Fettuccine Carbonara, Spaghetti Bolognese and the supreme pizza, i also added a note in my uber eats order that if they have a couple of slices of spare bread to throw it in if they want to and they did as they have done in the past. All the dishes were full of flavor and tasted fantastic, i usually ask for some chili in the dishes and they get the heat just right. I'm not sure if the pasta is made from scratch but I've had pasta from places where they make it from scratch, yet the sauce/flavour was average and i feel these guys get it right, and if i enjoyed the meal why should it matter if the pasta was made from scratch or not (attention entitled hipsters)! My only criticism would be the base of the pizza, i am quite particular about pizza as it is my fav food and i feel the base def needs work, but you still get 5 stars because the toppings were good! wish you guys well and thought to put this review up as props are due where...
Read more13 family and friends, as a group, went to a celebration of the next journey of a recent passing of a dear friend. SERVICE: From the time we got into the restaurant till the time we left,(2.5 hrs) the staff were absolutely wonderful. Our waitress (Paola) who looked after us was so patient, friendly, courteous, super-efficient and always wore a smile. Not only but no orders were mixed or confused. One of a million. Thanks ❤️ FOOD: The only letdown was the Arancini, otherwise, you satisfied everyone's palate which, in itself, is quite an achievement. The food was delicious. 👍 DRINKS: The sparkling water was popular and I believe we cleaned you out. The supplied local tap water was a let-down and had a high amount of chlorine. In this day and age, water filters could have been used. The cocktails 🍸 went down a treat, but the coffee cocktails packed a punch and were a bit hard to digest. I personally loved them. ATMOSPHERE: It is a busy place and very organised. Our whole table of 13 said they would recommend Topolinis, and honestly so would I. Well done to all the staff, chefs and management and especially our waitress who made our night. Sorry no photos were taken as we put our phones...
Read moreIf you are still ordering Pizza Hut, dominos etc. what are you doing with your life son? Haha! But seriously, I won’t go looking left or right for my pizza fix anymore.
Did you know that authentic pizza isn’t meant to have an oily base? I’ve had pizzas everywhere and when my husband ordered the seafood pizza. I was was worried, that it would be so soggy like I’ve experience previously. We ordered take away and the pizza actually stayed in its box about 30-40 minutes until we ate it and the base was dry! Not even oily. It was perfectly made.
You may say “but dominos give me super cheap deals” well… I’d rather quality when it comes to what I’m putting IN my body especially that it’s also for my little ones. $20 for my pizza which shouldn’t even be questioned because they were super generous with the scallops, prawns and calamari.
Other things I’ve had that I’d 100% recommend
lasagne (great for kids. My son would not stop raving on about it) marinara (perfect consistency unlike watered down ones I’ve tried elsewhere) risotto (hubby can’t stop talking about it) apple and rhubarb dessert (my absolute fave) sticky date pudding (Convinced me to be a fan of this...
