scopa caffe cucina

you can’t beatscopafor their $8 margherita lunch deal. not the most wow magherita of all time, but for $8 it’s an actual steal. the chili oil is copious and it is dope

been toscopamultiple times for pizzas and mains, always great flavours with a busy atmosphere. i only just found out about their hot chocolates which are to die for! nice thick and velvet texture a real pleasure to drink.

i lovescopaand come here all the time for dinner. their pizzas are amazing, its great service and the vibe in the restaurant is great. the staff are always super helpful and friendly

looked on zomato and found scopa, looked at the menu on-line and knew what i was going to order. sat down in the restaurant and the menu was different which threw me plus i didn’t see a pizza oven, i love wood fired pizza :(

i was pleasantly surprised, the pizza is tasty and thin. base is crispy and it holds the toppings well, yummy.

the only down side toscopais their wine by the glass selection. the only sauvignon blanc on the menu was one of the worst i have tasted.

ate atscopaon the 2nd january, there wasn't many restaurants open but i'm glad this one was. it was very busy and we hadn't booked so had to wait for a little bit. they had a small bar area so enjoyed a drink as we waited.

we both had pizza and they were delicious. lots of toppings to choose from, great bases and a good size. very tasty.

had a good dinner ascopaa few weeks ago. we needed to wait for a while for a table but wasn't a bother and they look after you. food when we ordered came quickly and i really like how it's actually hot every time. special pizza had a lot of salsa verde on it quite rich but everything else we enjoyed. recommend scopa

sorry but i was very disappointed withscopathe front of house lady was very rude when we arrived and gave me attitude when i asked where it was ok to sit . would never visit again as was most under whelmed with the food

had an amazing experience atscopalast night, pre show drinks and dinner. us girls shared a bottle of wine, gluten free pizza and a salad. the wait staff were very attentive and helpful, food and drinks served quickly and all great value for money. i will definitely be returning.

we have enjoyed many meals atscopaover the years. 

it is an efficient operation - sometimes cursed with staff that are "too cool for school" but that seems to have improved.

the pizza is lovely - great crust and excellent flavours (have the potato pizza!).  main dishes are very satisfying too.

if you have room - have a legendary hot chocolate.

had a delicious pizza atscopathe other day. it was a simple pizza: tomato base, a few prawns, rocket, and i added a good dose of chilli oil and it was absolutely divine. i was one piece off finishing the entire thing. i like the atmosphere here, it’s great on a sunny day when the doors are open and the sun pours in. the service here isn’t very good which is a shame. i asked if the pork on one of the pizza’s was free range and the young man gave some big story about how they imported all their ingredients from italy so it must be. when i asked another waitress, she said “i’ll just find out” she promptly came back and reported that it was. however, neither staff members were very friendly and took their time to take our order. the service here is way too casual and the wait staff are inexperienced. overall though, i really recommend this place, the food and ambience are delightful.

i've always recommendedscopato anyone coming in from out of town but after my last visit on new years day it was less than satisfactory. once seated we waited 20 mins for our waitress to take our orders let alone given some water. we then waited 30 mins for a granola and buttermilk pancakes with a side of bacon. my granola i received was about 1/2 cup with some luke warm milk. considering it was a public holiday and i then had to pay surcharge on top of that left me feeling a little underwhelmed. from now on i would only come back for margherita tuesdays or pizza because that is still damn good.

went toscopathe other day with a few friends i ordered the ox tongue ravioli which i found delicious =) and the pizza we had was also yummy i enjoyed the atmosphere and the server was awesome

all though a lot may tend to disagree with me, (especially the local cafe snobs that lurk in wellington). i didn't find this place that special? thescopabro's are certainly doing some cool things around town hands down (what with tommy millions, gentleman's beans, the bresolin etc) but my singular outing there didn't impress me as much i would of thought. now i usually wouldn't write a review based on one event, the reason i'm writing it is because i don't think i'll be back anytime soon! not with the talent it's surrounded by.

perhaps take this with a grain salt, but i found my pasta lacked flavour, as did my girlfriend's. the service isn't exactly stellar, it wasn't unpleasant but it wasn't pleasant either. the coffee they did get right but doesn't do much else, i feel these guys have far more potential than they showed today. maybe i've just convinced myself to give them another shot - in the meantime this is my opinion of it. do what you wish with it 😂 sorry scopa. bresolin next.

we went toscopaon the for my wife's birthday on the assumption that we would be able to get a vegan meal (since we had spoken with them earlier and they confirmed they could accommodate us) and were disappointed to find our options limited to two choices, both of which were below-average at best. basically we were told that they we could subtract items from other dishes, though not replace with another veg item...and furthermore the gluten-free pasta was just store bought pasta, which we could have just made ourselves at home.  plus there was an additional wait since we ordered the gluten-free, which apparently is only available in penne.  on top of this the waitress did not seem to have a clue and got our order wrong...it just wasn't at all what we were expecting. i am not one to complain, but the food was bland, disappointing and when my wife requested some tomato sauce to flavour her meal, it did not arrive until the end, when we had basically finished with our meals. we understand as vegans that our options can be limited when going out, but that is why we ask beforehand whether an establishment can cater to our dietary requirements.  we were under the impression that they could, and said they could, however we were very let down by the whole experience.bad food, bad service, and when our issues were brought to their attention they did not even has the courtesy to respond.

ok so i must start with this...scopais a hot chocolate genius!! seriously it has some of the best hot chocolate that my tastebuds have ever had the glory of salivating over. it tastes like the cream gods made a baby with the chocolate gods. yes that good. i would go there just for the hot choc, even if the food was bad. luckily though, it isn't. their pizza and pasta are also pretty delectable, and their service usually very good (albeit a tad 'cold' at some points). with their weekly deals you kind of also can't go wrong. but seriously, that hot chocolate!
