Everything was top notch, specially the Pesto Roasted Chicken Pizza. It was the best Pizza I have ever tried in Christchurch ❤️ we felt so comfortable and welcomed throughout. Highly recommend this place.
Just celebrated my Dad's birthday on the weekend here and it was fantastic all around - food, service and fun vibes all night. Cannot thank the staff enough for their amazing service, food and wine selection. We had 16 booked but 3 had to pull out at the last minute (due to the 2 children unfortunately) and Tutto Bene were so understanding, helpful and removed the chairs prior to us arriving. I also ordered their 'birthday cake' option and it was perfect for our group - our two servers brought out the cake for Dad with a few candles on top and started us off singing and my Mum was so grateful as we aren't the best singers but they broke the ice and we all sang along - truly superb and dad was chuffed. I highly recommend Tutto Bene for a casual meal or special family occasion (we had family from Canada with us so it was important everything was good). We also were able to order whatever we wanted off the menu - great starters, mains and desserts + coffees. Go here and enjoy :-) Ps - special mention to the servers - they were friendly, speedy and so helpful! We'll be back as family for sure. Thanks for a wonderful evening and celebration Tutto Bene!!
Lovely food and wonderful service. The polenta chips were amazing! For mains we had crispy prosciutto gnocchi and cannelloni. Both dishes were rich, creamy and delicious! The staff were warm, friendly, attentive and efficient. We will definitely be back.
My family and friends have gathered there multiple times, and the visits have always been disappointing to me. Surprisingly, this time was better than the others. The dipping sauce for the arancini was nice, but the filling was just okay—pretty bland. The pizza was good, with a nice base and toppings. The pasta portion was quite large. The dessert, especially the chocolate fondant, was good. Service was slow but still welcoming. The environment was always noisy, making it not ideal for long conversations.
Tutto Bene delivers a fantastic dining experience with authentic Italian flavors and warm, attentive service. The pasta is freshly made, the sauces are rich and flavorful, and the wood-fired pizzas are a standout—crispy, light, and generously topped. The atmosphere is cozy yet vibrant, making it perfect for both a casual night out and a special occasion. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, adding to the overall excellent experience. Highly recommend the tiramisu to end on a high note. A must-visit spot for Italian food lovers!
