We headed there early for pizza -and practically got the last table available - at 6.30pm. The red wine wasn't chilled (bonus points) and the margarita pizza the best since Italy. And I actually heard the young woman next to us moan with pleasure as she took her first bite of pasta. Hints: be patient with staff as Townsville people discover this gem. Book your table!
