Godi La Vita melted cheese-wheel pasta has become a legend in Adelaide. Three different cheese are matched with different past and cooked in front of your eyes by chef Federico. The modern italian cuisine at Godi La Vita is an experience you need to try to recommend to your friends. Other great dishes are the one kg Deep Pan Pizza which is thick and loaded with ingredients, perfect for sharing the pizza-love with your friends. House made gnocchi are the softest potato pillows that will melt in your mouth, but before you start your meal you have to try our famous cheesy garlic bread, and to finish home made desserts as tiramisu semifreddo or chocolate tortino.

We haven’t been for quite some time and we were looking forward to dinner but this time almost everything went wrong. Two of our meals got mixed up and given to the wrong people.. we even asked the waitress what each meal was and she told us they were correct. We also ordered a pizza and they made the wrong one which left us waiting even longer. We were unable to finish the pasta as it was too salty and one of them was undercooked. One waitress was really nice and tried to help but the overall experience was no way near what it was the last time we ate here unfortunately. Even though they made lots of mistakes and we had to wait longer for food due to this they didn’t even offer a discount. Disappointing experience.
