Since 2010, Briscola has firmly established itself on the Canberra food scene and is arguably this town's most popular Italian restaurant. Now with a newly refurbished venue, it offers an unpretentious yet stylish approach to an authentic Italian dining experience.At the forefront it’s about the food: simple, wholesome and traditional without being old fashioned. The “old fashioned” is evident in the service with Gianni and his incredible staff focusing on giving the diner a charming experience.What sets it apart is how they transport you to Italy. Start with an aperitivo to open the palate, enjoy a local or Italian wine varietal and finish with a soothing digestive.Briscola is situated conveniently in the heart of the city near hotels and public transport.Sit inside or alfresco, Briscola seems to suit anyone… families, young couples, group functions and corporate luncheons.

    Lovely food, definitely a place for a special occasion as it’s a bit pricey but overall it was a beautiful experience. The pork belly, spatchcock and salad was delicious. Leave room for dessert too as the tiramisu and hazelnut cream/mouse thing was delicious!

    I always have enjoyed the food at this restaurant. And this night was no different. Had a lovely 3 course menu for Valentine’s Day. Staff were attentive, food was amazing and waiting time for food to come out was not too long at all. Highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion.

    Excellent food and service as ever. We relished mainly seafood and vegies - the oysters, tuna and watermelon, stracciatella, zucchini flowers, grilled sourdough and berry sorbet all superb. Both of us unable to drink your great wine last night and so we resorted to Grandma's hands, which we gather uses pomegranate based Grenadine.

    Great venue. Our food was delicious. The pizza bases are a perfect balance of not being too thick or thin. Great atmosphere as well. This is our second visit and we will definitely be back!
