Capricciosa ($31): It has been one of my top favourite pizza choices. The crust are the best parts which is well baked and crispy. The hams and olives combo is just gnarly; however, the olives are sliced into pieces but still delicious and enjoyable. I prefer the uncut olives which are way more succulent. Virgin Martini (ABV 0%) ($17): A mocktail made out of lychee syrup, apple juice and lime. Despite the insanely high price for its portion size, I still enjoyed the exquisitely tarted flavour. Besides, thanks for not putting artichokes and mushrooms on my pizza, feel free to remove the ingredients you don’t like on the pizza but you still want to try. Overall, not far from Wheel Of Brisbane, above average quality, benevolent staff, well decorated interior, everything is great except for the high prices, 9 out of 10!

This place is the actual worst, my mother booked it for my sisters 40th hoping it was going to be a memorial occasion (my mother is 75 and obviously they sold her on some great ‘deal’ for a large party) 0/10 recommend. Memorable for all the wrong reasons. It started with a ‘welcome drink’ that was an ‘aperol spritz’. Firstly, it took over 40mins from our arrival (and we were admittedly already half an hour late from the booking time of 12pm when our guests had arrived) and it was a joke of a spritz. Had no flavour and was basically a vaguely orange colored soda water. Had to have a literal verbal fight with the “bar tender” to have them remade. She did not want to hear it and kept saying they could ‘only pour the allowed amount of Aperol’, which we were not disputing, it was the amount of dilution with soda water we were querying. In end we, the paying customer, had to request they please re-make them all (queue another 45 min wait) using at least smaller glasses, and therefore less soda water, to try to preserve some of the aperol flavor. Then came the food. I mean the drinks should have been the red flag. It was bland, flavorless and borderline tepid. We had a set menu, one would presume based on the actual number of people in the party who were accounted for. But no! There were not enough servings of each dish for the people on each table, one person was gluten free and waitress literally said “oh well that’s your choice”. The meatball dish was flavorless and lukewarm warm. The cannoli was inedible, tasted like starchy cottage cheese. They didn’t give us enough sharing plates, cutlery was dumped on tables at random times (I.e after you’d eaten a dish) and they repeatedly forgot drinks orders and it took minimum half an hour in between ordering to get any sort of food or drinks. Just do not waste your money here. The ‘private event room’ is a brick cell basically, super loud, no air con and no special/dedicated service either. There are a million better ‘restaurants’ on the same block let alone in Brisbane city. Honestly amazed they’re still operating and solvent at this point. Service was lacking, food was defrosted at best, flavour - never of heard of her. Just don’t do it, reviews exist for a reason.

Food and service was excellent, Leila was fantastic! Beef Ragu was delicious, and the Tiramisu was a generous portion and fantastic as well. Music was a touch loud where we were sitting.

Located at Brisbane’s Southbank, the very spacious Vici Italian Restaurant is a buzzling place – yet, still not too noisy. Before ordering dinner, we started with a perfectly served Spitz but failed on the ultimate must-have for any Italian: Chinotto. Sorry, we run out of that, we were told. Our dinner included the beef ragu with tomato, fresh casarecce (Sicilian pasta), and parmigiano reggiano. Although slightly on the lukewarm side, it was still tasty. We asked to have the starter with dinner and so it came. The fried calamari with caper aioli and fresh lemon proved to be an utter delight. So was the most exquisite pizza pepperoni fior di latte. It was indeed an “un classic”. After a rather long wait, the dessert arrived. We enjoyed the classic tiramisu with layers of campos espresso and Frangelico soaked savoiardi and whipped vanilla mascarpone dust. It came with the perfect cup of espresso. Despite being fully booked, the staff was fast, efficient, and tentative. On a very busy Friday night, it is forgivable to be asked three times “did you order an espresso?” Most likely, the Vici Italian Restaurant is the place to have dinner at Brisbane’s Southbank.
