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!

Recently I have made an effort to try more local restaurants. Mangiasti? was one I tried and it definitely didn’t disappoint. The restaurant has a good vibe and the staff are really attentive. My favourite was the seafood pasta in a parcel, wine tiramisu (I tried it for the first time and loved it), and the mozzarella in carrozza. I will be back!

Best Italian food outside Italy. The most important thing aside from the amazing food is the superb service. Look out for Mateo - smartest, nicest and funniest waiter ever. Fabulous wine and always top shelf food!!

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for two years and finally got to go. The atmosphere was comfortable and quieter than many Northern Beaches restaurants. The food was very good and well priced for the taste and quality. I will go back again!

Have dined here a few times now, and never disappointed. In fact, the food is so good that we often talk about it and plan what to eat next time we visit. The menu also changes so you will be surprised. The chef also has a creative mind, we can see his creativity in the food, but he gives his food perfect balance of traditional and innovative ingredients. I'm in love with the camberi, and that's exactly what I get next time we come there. My husband loves the baked pasta. The dessert we had the first time we dined there was sort of a hybrid between nougat and pavlova. IT WAS SO AMAZING, but they didn't have it anymore. Please make it again!!! Anyway, an absolute gem. If anyone is a fan of Italian food, amazing one that is, Magiasti is the place to go!!!!

This place is an absolute gem! I visited this restaurant for the first time last Friday night with a friend and absolutely fell in love. The service is impeccable and the food is perfection!

Great food and impressive wine list
David Kells
Best suburban Italian you can find. Owners are there every sitting. Smaller menu allows for exquisite handmade attention to detail and seasonality of produce. Recent addition of Mike as sommelier is an excellent choice. Food and wine matching come second to none. The zucchini flowers are to die for! Highly recommend - except for when I want to return as I don't want to have to compete with your booking! hehe.Get in early to avoid disappointment!

A visit to this quaint Italian Restaurant is a must.The food and service are both exceptional.We will certainly be back

A very lovely night out with another couple. Food and Service was exceptional. Our new favourite Italian. We shared the delightful Fritto Misto (too big for one) and Veal Saltimbocca. Our friends had the Linguine Cartoccio which they said was excellent.

We had a superb Father’s Day meal. The service was awesome 👏
Mike Green
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
sin menere
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 !

Food was amazing...we waddled out of the restaurant. Staff were very friendly and helpful
Authentic food and great vibe. Always delicious. Beer on tap and bar area.
Fantastic dining experience,being from a Calabrese background I found the food exactly like the old country
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 🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹👌🇮🇹
