I had the most amazing experience at Luigi’s! I’ve never had a dining experience like this one, it was very unique! The service was amazing & the food was absolutely divine!! A very special shout out to Isabel, who looked after me whilst at Luigi’s! Her food recommendations were spot on and overall she was such a lovely person. I’m so excited to come back on my next visit to Adelaide!! Luigi the owner, was also super lovely and came and greeted me, had a chat with me and served some food - you don’t get that nearly anywhere. Such a beautiful place, food and people!😍

The surprise that this was a no menu restaurant took us OUT of the experience. The waitress had incredible skills in reciting the menu however our brains just can’t retain all of that, which is then uncomfortable to get to the end of her talented spiel and not have an answer. In addition, there is no indication of price. We went in knowing it’s a fancy restaurant and that we would be spending a bit of money (and we were happy to), however, not knowing the price was anxiety provoking. This also turns the conversation into what an uncomfortable experience it is to not have a menu or prices. It’s hard to relax. I’ve read the responses from the owner to other reviews and he obviously isn’t open to take on constructive criticism, so I’d just say it would be nice to have a heads up before you decide to sit down. Then you are not left with the decision to either go ahead uncomfortably or awkwardly leave. In the end, the price was fine. However, we would’ve ordered a lot more (eg., entree and dessert) if we knew this from the start. Oh, also, the steak was cold. 4/5 for atmosphere because it’s loud in there, which is especially important when the menu is verbal lol. So in summary: Food = good but cold Waitress = top notch service 👌🏽 No menu without warning = anxiety provoking 😹

Such a fun and delicious experience. Will be returning with my family soon! We had Akram(sorry we didn’t catch how to spell your name correctly) as our server and he was a delight! Thank you to all the front and back of house staff❤️

We visited Luigi Pasta as a group of six and had such a wonderful dining experience! At first, we were surprised by the no-menu concept, but our server, Cherry, did an amazing job. She memorized everything and explained the dishes in such great detail, which made it really easy to choose. The food was fabulous—especially the garlic bread. I also loved the “runway” presentation. Watching dishes slide down the center of the table was such a fun and interactive touch! The only downside was that we were seated near the alleyway, so some cold air came in, and the food cooled down a bit quickly. Luckily, the overhead heater helped keep us warm. Overall, the staff were wonderful, the atmosphere was lively, and it was such a fun dining experience. I truly enjoyed it and would love to come back!

The food and atmosphere were incredible! Love the idea of a ‘verbal menu’ meaning less decisions to make! However, the one aspect that absolute made our night next level was the staff! Nick and Matt, you made our ‘mums night out’ so much fun! Thank you for sitting with us, laughing with us and keeping us entertained all night long!
