7 Italian Restaurant Terbaik di Georgetown

TL;DR: Alcohols are not that expensive but not that strong. Food quality and taste is definitely up there but the pizza may not be to my taste. Pasta and lamb are must-orders. Price is a little more expensive than regular restaurants. Will definitely come back to try other menu items.

Deserving of all the accolades bestowed on it over the years. The owner and his crew takes great care in ensuring that all guests are comfortable seated and well attended to. What I wanted to write about is their off the menu special of duck leg. It was as tender as can be and we polished it off in a few seconds. A must order!

The bread basket was below average for Italian restaurant. The pizza was ok, definitely not enough tomato sauce. The chicken was good. The best was the appetizer. Nothing special to entice me to come back.

Went here for a birthday dinner and the food was amazing. Loving the Bufalina pizza and my favourite was their Carbonara. Tastes so classic and yet so creamy! They served breads and focaccia as appetizer and it tastes just ?? hits the spot right.

The host were kind enough to let us sit earlier because we arrived a little before the reservation time but both of them are so wonderful.

They brought their big chalk board which displays their daily menu around the restaurant to those that just came and ordered and I was surprised haha. Overall a good experience! Would come here again for another round of authentic Italian experience.

    Ok, so hear me out. The place is cozy, small but also big. They went non halal big time for decoration, but I really enjoyed the night there. Had my birthday, ate good food. Although the risotto, I must say, could improve on presentation. But nonetheless, was delicious. The staff is always smiling and attentive and it makes it quite a good experience, it’s the small details at the end.

    Parking sucks, the place is in a tight road and very happening, so don’t expect parking to be easy to find.

    Great Italian restaurant in Penang – amazing food with a homely ambience. Make sure you sit infront of the chef for an extra special experience. Homemade sauces result in some seriously good pizza and pasta !

    An accidental find… and a good one at that. We decided to dine here after walking past this quaint restaurant while exploring Penang on foot. Pleasantly surprised by the quality of food served here. The charcuterie platter was a delight. We ordered the mushroom sauce ravioli and it was bursting with flavour. The beef steak came well done even though I asked for medium but it was quickly rectified and we enjoyed it. Will definitely be back for more.

    1. Went to several Italian restaurants in Penang. This is one of the best in term of food and value. The pizza was perfect. One of the best pizza dough so far. Thin and crush. The pork rib was very good. Hand made pasta was excellent. Risotto was good. The dessert was excellent too and not too sweet. The service was very good and friendly. A definite repeater.

    2. Excellent Italian food! Thank you Chef Luca & team for such wonderful dinner. I am a huge fan of pesto and most restaurant would over do it with cream. It was made to perfection over here. The salumi e formaggi platter was amazing.?? Pizza was slightly salty to my liking but it wasn’t a big deal. Do pair it with their chilli oil for a kick of heat. To seal the deal we had three guilty mouthwatering desserts of Panna cotta, almond cake w cherry compote & tiramisu. Delizioso! Service from heart by Shankar, Rahid & Arieph. They made our evening meaningful.? This trio will definitely make us return to Via Pre. Grazie ❤️

    3. Had a great dining experience here. The set lunch is super valuable, RM 29 for main + sides + beverage.
      There is no issue with parking because there is a public multistorey carpark located at Lebuh Union.
      Waiters are providing fine dining standard service.

      It is better to book a reservation during peak hours.

    4. Came here on a Monday for lunch, and the place was empty, so I can’t comment on the overall atmosphere. The restaurant, however, was nicely decorated.
      They had a lunch meny which was of good value. The food was delicious and tasted authentic!
      The service was great, which was to be expected considering we were the only guests at the time.?

    5. I enjoyed the food tremendously. The cold platter is utterly satisfying! Had this for lunch with my colleagues and I’m full enough to skip dinner as well. Will be coming back for more!
