julius pizzeria

dinner here was lovely so busy though so be prepared to wait especially on a weekend. couldn't wait to try out this italian have heard a lot about it. there wasn't a lot to choose from in the way of entrees and we asked the waitress about the sizing of the bruschetta she said it was tiny and only two pieces. would be better to be able to order entrees that catered more for sharing and had bigger portions as that is what italian food is bigger and better. i ordered the margherita pizza and it was tasty but i wasn't amazed. overall it didn't live up to the expectations, but was a better italian place than others in brisbane for sure

this was my 2nd visit to julius pizzeria and i ordered the same dishes back when the restaurant just opened : duck ragu pasta and the tartufo pizza.  the first time i had the duck ragu it was amazing. but unfortunately this time the pasta was gluggy and the tomato-based sauce had cream added to it, which made it heavy to eat. however the standard of the pizza was consistent, still as good as i remembered it. overall quite an enjoyable experience. i'll probably order a different pasta next time.

pizza, pasta need i say more....it was so good. the bartenders were entertaining as we walked in. even though busy food came out within good time and was awesome. hard to park so mybe take a bus or public transpor if you want to save on parking

came here on sat early evening. heads up, julius is very popular and there are no table reservations. therefore, it's best to go in and put yourself on the wait list before getting pre-drinks elsewhere. we arrived at 5:30pm and had a 40 min wait for a table of 6.
anyhow, it was well worth it! i tried the risotto of the day and crab-meat and chilli spaghetti; both well cooked perfectly and bursting with flavour. the pizzas looked amazing and my friends agreed they were delicious. all portions well reasonable and filling. service was excellent, with staff coming around regularly to top up your water glass.
a sure spot for those craving italian.

my favourite pizza joint in brisbane. they never fail to disappoint. each pizza has a thin crisp crust with delectable toppings. service is friendly but slow. must try is the tarfuti pizza - mozzarella, smoked bacon, portobello mushrooms,
stracchino and truffle paste. absolutely divine!

fantastic authentic italian food. great service. enjoyed dinner very much. pizza's were thin and delicious. pasta were perfectly seasoned and so tasty. nice fun atmosphere, cool decor

pretty damn good pizza. seriously recommend it! i'd love to see an option with eggplant though. pretty good wine list too, tried a chianti from tuscany for the first time and pretty tasty! must try the tartufo pizza, it has truffle oil, delicious. pizza's crust was a tiny bit burnt on the edge but still fine. perfect size, i can definitely eat one on my own. but also had no room left for dessert lol. their staff are super wonderful and attentive. very happy dining experience.

best pizza in brisbane? very likely. today i learnt what all the fuss was about at julius pizzeria. been hyping myself all week about coming here for valentine's day lunch and to celebrate my love for pizza. why get onlyone pizza to share when we can get two and that was exactly what we did. the first one, off the menu, was nduja (proper name for spicy spreadable salami) with sliced potato, rosemary, scamorza and more mozzarella. the other was their pizza special with pork and fennel sausage on it. they reminded us a lot of 11 inch pizza in melbourne. the base had great flavour and unbeatable texture. it was so thin yet it held together with slight crunch on the very bottom. their selections are traditional, yet different from what other brisbane pizzerias have to offer. have i mention that both pizzas were huge?

i felt like i couldn't eat anymore after the two pizzas. but how dare i miss almond and cherry semifreddo (italian frozen icecream) when it is one of my most favourite flavour combinations. the icecream was light in flavour and texture. i am not a dessert fan and rarely give praise to any. i would love a few more cherry chunks. but this is definitely what i like to eat as my last course.

i will have to come back to try their pasta and risotto when i get my next chance. for the moment, i think i might be full until tomorrow.

the tartufo truffle pizza is probably one of the best pizzas in australia and the tiramisu undoubtedly is the best in qld. great knowledgeable staff, excellent choice of wines and fantastic desserts. i wish this was my local.

no doubt about it, these guys make some fabulous pizza. we ended up here a bit by accident when we were hanging out in south brisbane and mrs kan do changed her mind about not being hungry, and i changed my mind about not having a second dinner!
thankfully, due to some strong recommendations from ms alison read and mr meatballs and beef cheeks there wasn't much doubt in my mind about where to go.
we ordered the tartufo and the salame e fontina. lovely, thin based pizzas full of salty goodness and flavour. and despite ordering two pizzas we felt full but not bloated.
recommended if you're in the area.

we were lucky to get a seat here, as this is usually a very busy place.

food wise: loved the pizza here! best pizza i have had so far in australia.

the crust was crispy and the flavours were bold and flavourful, wood fired pizza gets the lovely smoked and chared flovours that you cant replicate with an oven.

the store is set on the corner of fish lane, close to the cultral centre of brisbane. so enavitably there is a sophisticaed and cultural embrasing setting.

the atmosphere is inviting and sophicticated. we sat by the kitchens, so we had the views of the chef's at work, and they seamed to enjoy being there.

the smells coming from the kitchen and the true itallian waiters make yiu feel as if you are seated
in italy.

i would definitly recoment coming here, and embrase the atmosphere.

while the general quality of the food was awesome and fantastic, and the fit out is pretty good, the service was not overly spectacular. glasses were 'slammed' onto the table, staff were running around, and not a single smile in sight. maybe its unusually busy for a sunday but still.

the food here is ok. the service is great however this place is too hyped up. the calamari lacks flavour and and the duck ragu is imitation version of becafinos in new farm !

cool fit out down an alley opposite the science centre at south brisbane. sit at the bar and enjoy a drink or be shown straight to a table. we were offered water and handed the menus. entrees , pizzas, salads, pastas and desserts on offer. we both ordered pizzas and shared. proseco went well with the crispy smoky based pizzas. one was olives, anchovies and bocconcini the other was chilli prawn and rocket. delicious. nice to find a place that makes great thin based pizzas that don't go soggy before they make it into your mouth. unobtrusive service and good prices.

julius pizzeria serves up brisbane's best pizza!

we arrived at 6:05pm and we're lucky enough to get a seat right in the window. note - they take bookings before 6pm, but after 6pm it is first come, first served. julius is also bigger than it appears from the outside.

we tried the margherita pizza (tomato, fior di latte and basil) and melanzone pizza (eggplant, ham, basil and parmesan over a red sauce with mozzarella) - both were wonderful. good crust, good sauce, good cheese and quality toppings.

great service!

looking forward to our next visit to julius pizzeria.

p.s. they are closed until 4 january 2017, so you'll have to wait a week to try this for yourself.
