St Domenico
/
St Domenico encapsulates the Italian style of dining, urging patrons to "Mangia! Mangia!" in an intimate gathering while cherishing a meal which honours classical Italian flavours and quality ingredients.
We were pleased to be re-visit St Domenico recently and are pleased to report that everything is as good as it was!
Not your regular pizza shop next door, St Domenico creates upmarket, real Italian style pizza and pasta. If you are craving authentic Italian food and Napoletana style pizza, St Domenico will not disappoint.
We started our meal with a selection of entrees. The bocconcini fritti was absolutely moreish - feather-light buffalo mozzarella cheese was stuffed with olives or anchovies before being crumbed and fried. The Antipasto Misto was similarly delicious - a proprietary selection of pickled vegetables and quality cured meats
Of course any visit to St Domenico would not be complete without one of their amazing pizzas.
The Prosciutto Pizza was flawless. This San Marzano tomato and fior di latte based pizza was embellished with stunning San Daniele prosciutto DOP – a classic combination.
The San Antonio Abate pizza was picture perfect in appearance and outstanding in taste. Unctuous pork and fennel sausage, dollops of fior di latte mozzarella, sweet roasted apple, finished with sage and balsamic created a delightful fusion of flavours that would keep any pizza purist happy. Encircled with a puffy crisp crust, this pizza was superb.
Our evening concluded on a sweet high with traditional Italian desserts. The Nutella pizza was of particular note - generously smothered with Nutella and topped with fresh banana and strawberries, it was a sweet finish to a lovely meal.
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.
