Mangiasti?
Despite today’s technology, “nonna” Francesca always uses her fireplace to cook. When you walk into her house, the aroma makes you hungry immediately and then she asks the question: “Mangiasti?” (Have you eaten?) and you just can’t say no to her!
This culture is replicated at Mangiasti Restaurant because a meal is not just a chance to fill up, but an opportunity to gather, share, talk and disconnect from the distractions of the outside world.
At Mangiasti you will savour simplicity of the Southern Italian food, appreciating the different flavours and textures like a true Italian! Enthusiastic eating is our secret, so loosen your belt and dig deep.
Grazie Nonna Francesca!

Lovely food, wonderful atmosphere and extremely helpful staff. Our waiter helped us choose our meal. We had a fantastic mix of entree and main dishes to share. There was six of us and we all had the best evening.
Quaint little place, the only down fall is the parking is at the rear, but to use the rear entrance you basically have to guess which door is theirs, no number no indications

Simple classic Italian fine food executed with perfection. This place has shown me a wonder of simple Linguine with depth of seafood broth, crispy pork Romana and simple Tiramisu with red wine twist instead of standard coffee flavor. I was grown sceptic of Sydney Italian food scene until I found this little gem. Thank you Chef !

Thanks so much to the team at Mangiasti...you are such a special part of our local community and thanks for all your efforts to reopen during Covid. Our special takeaway dinner was amazing. Your Cartoccio travels so well as the parcel keeps in all the heat on it's way home to us. Jack even ordered an extra pasta to have the next day...he had to hide it in the fridge so no one found it before he could eat it! Ha!We have so missed your food during this time. We will order again next week as it couldn't have been better unless we had you all over here! Can't wait until the restaurant is open again and busy with customers!

Mangiasti is without a doubt my favourite restaurant. The decor is stunning, the atmosphere is fantastic, the staff are so warm, friendly and helpful, and the food is absolutely unreal! Definitely recommend the Linguine Cartoccio even if you're not a seafood fan - my partner and I have become regulars purely for this dish in particular. An absolutely wonderful dinner spot, and I recommend it to anyone that asks!

Outstanding Italian Restaurant , great service authentic Italian Food to die for , make sure you you book when they re-open for in-guests you wont be disappointed . They have just decided to open with takeaway after covid 19 restrictions, after many customer requests .Last week ordered two dishes, and the large tiramasu fed 3 of us was outstanding !! going back again Friday, support local business now that they are trading through covid you wont be disappointed

Our local is back!! We have missed Mangiasti and were thrilled to see the take-away option return. Loved the Rigatoni Ragu and thank Davide and chef Mario for the special order of the Seafood Cartoccio Parcel. Buenisimo!

Fabulous southern Italian food and hospitality! We love Mangiasti. Right now they’re doing takeaway, which is wonderful until we can get back there in person. 10/10 would recommend

The absolute Italian journey of food!

I had one of the best experiences there. We called on to reserve a spot. The host was gracious and the service was excellent. The ambience was quaint rustic and perfect. Their menus change often, so if you are unable to decide what to get, just ask the friendly staff and they will suggest items as per your palate. We had - watermelon and goat cheese, Linguine al Cartoccio, Gnocchi all'amatriciana and the Tiramisu. They were all unlike anything I ever tasted.. yummy!! If you are ever around Roseville or lucky enough to live nearby or even want to discover a new dinner spot, pop by Mangiasti? You will not regret the decision. After all who doesn't want to bask in a homely vibe where your grandma always ask you Did You Eat? (that's the rationale behind the restaurant name). Cheers, thanks for the lovely dinner. I will definitely be back for more.

Great food and friendly staff
Food was amazing...we waddled out of the restaurant. Staff were very friendly and helpful
A spontaneous night out and we discovered Mangiasti? through the entertainment book.The staff were attentive, professional & genuinely outgoing.The kitchen staff were visibly working hard but proud of what they were doing.The food... the food... need i say more? Incredible flavours, generous serving size and although it was a little pricy we will definitely be back because of the food! Delicious. You all but forget that you are on the main road.Thanks team, keep up the awesome work!

Authentic food and great vibe. Always delicious. Beer on tap and bar area.
As a north shore local, it is always a pleasure to discover great restaurants near me and wow, just wow. I am singing from the rooftop that Mangiasti is an absolute ripper!! Dish after dish was amazing and so delicious with the most lively service that made me feel like we were old friends. Special mention to their signature dish of Linguine al Cartoccio (seafood pasta baked in a parcel) which had the most beautiful sweetness from the fresh seafood and the roasted cherry tomatoes and the Tagliatelle al Ragu which had so much depth of flavour and tenderness after 8 hours of cooking. Everything was divine divine divine! I cant wait to go back!Dishes I had were:▪️Linguine al Cartoccio▪️Tagliatelle al Ragu▪️Marinated Sicilian Mixed Olives▪️Zucchini Flowers▪️Fritto Misto▪️Bistecca alla Fiorentina▪️Porchetta Romana▪️Garden Salad▪️Watermelon Salad

Oh. My. God. Immense. Pricey, but oh so very tasty. I was there for lunch and it's a tight space but a lovely, airy space and the food is next level. I had the Tagliatelli and Porchettta and it was DIVINE.

Proper Italian food. Could eat there every day.

Fantastic dining experience,being from a Calabrese background I found the food exactly like the old country
Great service and great food. The arancini was delicious and the florentine steak was amazing. The atmosphere is great down stairs and the decor is unique. It is like entering a mini Italy.

Great authentic Italian food!

We had previously visited as a large group and had the tour menu, which left me wanting to try more!We returned on the weekend and Absolutely loved our experience at the chef’s table. We had some amazing dishes and I have picked out what I’m having on our next visit 😂The wait staff were attentive, the chefs were on their game (and amazing to watch!) and we felt absolutely welcome.Definitely my new favourite restaurant. Thank you so much for the memorable experience.
Food was fantastic. Great service.
Authentic and amazing food ! great service !! highly recommend !
Fantastic food, warm and friendly and attentive staff. I would highly recommend Mangiasti....we had a wonderful lunch. ❤️
Mangiasti? is a unique Southern Italian Restaurant, which brings the Calabrese vibe right at your seat! Loved the “frittura mista” , a must try dish to start with, and the coffee ☕️ made with the traditional Italian Caffettiera! The pasta is fresh and the sauce is such a delicacy! Thank you to the owners and staff, who created such a unique and special place😁Can’t wait to be back soon!!! Grazie 😊
What a great place! Great food, lovely decor and wonderful service. Would definitely recommend it
Great atmosphere, excellent food and service. Very friendly. Love this place!
Amazing place!I m Italian, born in the south. I used to own my own authentic Italian cafe'/restaurant and have worked with Italian top chefs and I think that Mangiasti? Is a fantastic place. Love the athmosfere, the quality and authenticity of the food, the attentive service and the staff.I have become a regular and I can t help by spreading the word. To the two people that rated it 1 stars I have to say that they have no clue of what Italian food is and their reviews are totally unfair and arrogant.Thank you mangiasti for making me feel like I m back home when with you guy
Every time we have been to Mangiasti, we have always enjoyed the amazing food,nothing can be faulted, the atmosphere is second to none true authenticity, and we always leave with a smile on our face after a great night out.Well done Mangiasti
The whole package 🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹
