Caprese

Buffalo mozzarella served with fresh roma tomatoes and fresh basil

The Caprese was a stunning start to our meal. The Bufala di Parma mozzarella was feather-light and delicate but yet rich and full of flavour and was further enhanced by the flavours of the fresh basil and tomato.

Arancini

Rice balls with artichoke, smoked scamorza cheese & herbs

Parmigiana Di Melanzane

Eggplant, smoked scamorza cheese, parmesan, napoli sauce and fresh basil

Traditional comfort-food classics, both the arancini balls and the Parmigiana Di Melanzane were beautiful. Each morsel was sufficiently seasoned and flavoursome.

Prosciutto Pizza - San Marzano tomato, San Daniele prosciutto DOP, fior di latte

Of course any visit to St Domenico would not be complete without one of their amazing pizzas. The Prosciutto Pizza was flawless. This tomato and fior di latte a based pizza was embellished with stunning San Daniele prosciutto DOP – a classic combination.

Tartufo Pizza - Mushroom, leg ham, truffle paste and scamorza

The Tartufo pizza was picture perfect in appearance and outstanding in taste. Aromatic truffle cream, dollops of Fior di latte mozzarella and beautiful leg ham, finished with shaved parmigiano created a delightful fusion of flavours that would keep any pizza purist happy. Encircled with a puffy crisp crust, this pizza was superb.

Bomboloni - Italian doughnuts

These golden puffs (one filled with lemon curd and the other with Nutella) were stunning. Ethereal in texture, the doughnuts were cinnamon-sugar coated and tasted delicious.

Panna cotta served with crumbled amaretti and salted caramel

St Domenico’s rendition of a pannacotta was delicious. The pannacotta was silky smooth with lovely textural crumble and lashings of salted caramel.

An Italian restaurant with Italian hospitality St Domenico delivers warm and friendly service and an authentic Italian dining experience which celebrates the smells, taste and comfort of a country-style Italian home.
