Fodor's Expert Review Enoteca 1889

Fodor's Choice
Specializing in "vera cucina Romana" (real Roman food), this award-winning Italian restaurant in Woollangabba's antique quarter is well worth crossing the Brisbane River for. The menu favors simplicity over complexity: elegant starters like lightly fried zucchini flowers stuffed with cheese and anchovies, freshly made pasta or fish of the day for main, tiramisu or panna cotta for dessert. The setting is romantic and old-worldy, and the wine list is, as you would expect, extensive with an emphasis on Italian varieties.
