Brilliant service, super cosy atmosphere and the most drool-worthy, authentic Italian we have had for a long time in Brisbane. Incredibly accommodating and I could not fault a thing. Home made focaccia to go with our charcuterie was DELICIOUS, super generous pasta servings and I even had a non-alcoholic spritz made that was just like the real thing. Definitely coming back. Do yourself a favour and try COMO! Bravo team 👏

We go to Hotel West End every week for the trivia night. The food and service is excellent and it’s a very pleasant atmosphere: not too noisy, light and airy, spacious. And the trivia host is clear, well-organised and fun. Nice place for a group/family meal as you don’t have to yell at each other to be heard.
