Review Fabio's - Pretoria

Leon Kohrs

What an amazing Italian restaurant. We had a special order of a whole roasted piglet, which was absolutely delicious. The starters are all amazing and I can highly recommend the gorgonzola snails and the arancini balls. The owner is very friendly and accommodating. Definitely have a chat about his restaurant and history.

Authentic Italian goodness. And if you go on Tuesdays it’s half price pizza. The venue is a cozy house with a good wine selection including some imported Italian. Service is friendly. Make sure to reserve a spot here as it gets busy, especially on the aforementioned Tuesdays. Also: Try the Gelato!

Enya Bekker

Pizzas are great , and not expensive at all. Really great service as well. Had a margarita-, seafood and a regina pizza

Duart Breedt

Best pizza in Pretoria! Love the authentic combinations and ingredients. The receptionist who waits on the customer and answers the calls was rather impolite and impatient.

Best pasta and pizza in Gauteng !! Had the Quattro Stagioni and Lasagne alla Bolognese. Food is phenomenal

I HIGHLY recommend Fabio’s Was my second encounter at Fabio’s. The true test of a pizzeria is to test a Margarita, there is no toppings to hind behind and WoW dit it deliver. We had both options available and it did not fail. The true Italian cuisine options are true to the roots and especially the in season menu changed daily. See you again soon.

Best pizza in Pretoria, hands down! Ordered 3 pizzas - the Quattro Stagioni (always a favourite), the Italia and the Cristiano on Valentine’s Day. Delivered hot and fresh and my goodness they DID NOT disappoint! Definitely the best pizzas in Pretoria- by far. And believe me- we eat a lot of pizza and have tried many different places.

Always amazing authentic Italian food. They have a lovely special on Tuesdays where you get half price pizza of you order a drink.

Sadly this place is now a takeaway only, but the food is excellent.

Alexander Schweickerdt

Great pizza. A bit different to the usual style as they claim to make authentic Italian pizzas. Great service. Great food. Would like to see a bit more craft beer on the menu but that's just me. When you go on Tuesdays, pizza is half priced. They do not have many pizza options for fussy eaters (my kids). :) But they loved their margarita and regina. Although we had to remove the mushrooms for my son. Definitely going back.

Hanri Botha

First time ordering from Fabio's... Wow!! Best pizza in Pretoria as far as I am concerned. Lots of toppings, thin base, quality products. Very very happy customer.

Brendon Koekemoer

Where do I begin, homey feel, Italian as can get, staff that was friendly, constantly checking to see if everything was ok. Even phoning you after you had your meal. Not something I have experienced. Food was excellent, so nice. Thank you to the best waitress and Manager, Mbali and Bright you will see us again.

Bernardi Art

Awesome authentic Italian food. Composite wine list. Fresh ingredients and friendly efficient service. Food prepared the Italian way, no variations considered, just well priced, well prepared and balanced tasty fresh food. We visited again for lunch on Saturday 16 February and enjoyed another wholesome meal.

Candice Slump

A traditional, yet modern authentic Italian restaurant. Wonderful hand made pasta. Definitely worth a try. I will be back to try out more of the menu. Ask about their speciality pastas not on the menu. Watch out for half price pizzas on a Tuesday. And I definitely want to go back to try their metre long pizzas. Watch out when you use google maps to direct you. It is directly across the road from the shopping centre, not a block further on.

Fabio's is a great restaurant. We went there for their Tuesday half price pizza special the day before my sons 13th birthday. They surprised him with Ice cream that they make themselves and tastes so good. The pizzas there are incredibly tasty. We have been there many times and will surely go back often again. The staff and owners are very friendly and Fabio himself came to talk to us. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Alastair Waldeck

A proper local's favourite. I happened to stumble across this place and decided to give it a try. The food was absolutely delicious, you can truly taste the authenticity of each dish and can tell this is owned by a true Italian! Definitely worth a try!

Michael Mullineux

Great food, well portioned and priced. Their bread is out of this world. It is so stupid that my review has to be a minimum length, I hate it zomato so change it

Looking for tasty Italian food in Pretoria can be a tricky experience. Most don't cater for our selective palate. This restaurant always delivers on taste, service and friendliness. Fabio and Sam don't just serve food to you. They provide you with an Italian experience that makes you want to come back for more. The pasta is top notch and clearly made with fresh ingredients and a healthy dose of love. I don't think many competitors can compete with that.

Anrich Kleynhans

The most Authentic Italian Cuisine i have ever has the opportunity to indulge in. A feeling of sitting in Mama's kitchen with family and friends, warm, friendly and hosts and portions that may just be enough for breakfast in the morning after.

Fabio Dearling

Delicious food and a very reasonable price for the quality. Service was very friendly and efficient. All in all very impressed with the restaurant definitely worth a visit!

Martie Vosloo

Such a special place.... Authentic Italian cuisine and feels like home. The hosts are so friendly, helpful and passionate about their dishes. Truly a must visit and they even have 1 meter pizzas!!! By the way, you've never had real pizza if you haven't had their's!!!

Chantell Schmahl

Absolutely in love with this little gem. We ordered take-out from Ristorante L'Isola and the order was swiftly prepared, the owner was friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. As good, if not better than any dishes I had in Italy. For an authentic Italian experience (where focus is on the food and not all the gimmicky bells and whistles), give this eatery a try.

Jaco

Had a quick lunch at this lovely eatery on Tuesday (which is their pizza special day - half price) so we skipped the pizza and went for the Tagliata Rucola e Grana (I obviously had to revisit the menu for this spelling) and Lasagne (one of my favourite dishes). The Tagliata is thinly sliced, medium rare sirloin on rocket topped with a balsamic reduction. This dish is simply superb. The lasagne was good, but I've had better for cheaper. I really enjoyed the service. Will definitely go back to try the rest of the menu.

Tiro Masemola

Visited this lovely place on Saturday evening. First visit and didn't know what to expect. We got a table in their garden area which was perfect because of the warm weather and it set a romantic mood. Found it difficult to choose off of the menu because it all looked so good. The chef gave us a list of the chefs choice, which confused us even more because he gave us even more great options. In the end my boyfriend went for the veal with pasta on the side and I went for heart shaped ravioli in a bacon sauce. The pasta is homemade and tastes delish!! Try this place out

Sarina Frauenstein

Not crazy about this place. No atmosphere, food was average and service was just as average. Not really what you expect from an Italian restaurant.

Stefano Macagno

The best Italian restaurant in Pretoria, the food it's really authentic, if you want taste the authentic Arancini or Cannoli from Sicily this is the place!The owner/chef Fabio and all his staff are very friendly.

Luana Ungerer

Great food, great specials, great prices and great service. An authentic Italian restaurant, even the menu is in Italian, but the waiters are great translators. 10/10 would visit again

Graham

Great food. Very tasty and superbly prepared. The porcini steak was prepared exactly as ordered and memorable. We will certainly be back very soon. Special menu nearly as big as the normal menu.

Erhardkk

Quaint little Italian place with food made by real Italians..they allow corkage and their daily specials takes away the need for a menu. Always fresh and good.

Marentia Van Kasterop

We visited L'Isola again (this is an update of the previous review) and what a pleasure! The service was absolutely great! The food really tasty and well presented. Sam did her best to accommodate our vegetarian requirement. We will most definitely return to this restaurant.

Ryno

Ordered take aways here. Had the parma pizza and seafood spaghetti. Awesome food and well priced. Will go here again in the near future. Well worth the visit

Fred Hart

Excellent traditional Italian restaurant.Home made pasta - a daily specials board, which actually changes daily!Great food, and a chef who is only too happy to come make recommendations on his menu.
