Great pasta, excellent house wine (both red & white), perfect desserts. Attentive service. Four of us totally enjoyed our dinner tonight. Keep up the good work! Do make reservation, as we saw a couple of walk-in customers got turned away. Will sure be back to this restaurant if I ever return to the area.
The menu is underrated.. this food is divine! And the service is First Class! See you next time I'm down here
Simply. Awesome. Italian food.
The service is outstanding - and my god the wine list is epic.
Amazing food, wide selection of wines and beers. Super friendly staff, it is your money's worth.
Service is Great! loved the beautiful foods especially the arancini 10/10
Best steak in Margaret River by a long shot!
Brilliant service, delicious deserts!
This is a must do!!
Lovely food and waitress was super friendly. Would recommend to anyone visiting Margret river.
Staff very attentive and friendly, the food arrived in timely manner and just the aroma had my stomach rumbling. The Ragu was so tasty and fresh pasta perfect. Thank you for a great night.
Lovely food and very friendly and attentive staff. A real gem in Margaret River. Prices are not outrageous either.
Amazing food and great service. Pasta is to die for, and the carpaccio is great as well.
Make sure you book! We almost didn't get a table.
Fantastic Italian restaurant, a little pricey, but worth it because the quality of the food was outstanding.
We came here our last night in Margaret River. Wish we'd found it sooner! Very hearty and tasty authentic Italian fare. Service was excellent. Prices very reasonable. We couldn't help but notice that we seemed to be surrounded by Italian diners, an excellent sign and testament to the quality here. Will be back next time!
Very authentic Italian food. Extremely tasty and fresh. I asked the waiter about the food coming out in a paper bag which he said was the traditional way of cooking it, letting the pasta steam in the bag and enhance the flavour. Must be true because it was sensational. Great service and good sized meals. Would come back again for sure.
Incredibly delicious Italian food with friendly service.
The pappadelle with oxtail was melting in the mouth and full of flavour. Highly recommended!
Very authentic food. The pasta is home made and tastes great. Outstanding atmosphere without the usual noise of a restaurant. Service is brilliant, attentive and friendly. Revommend this place to anyone.
I would safely say this is my favourite Italian restaurant in WA. Both food and service is above and beyond.
There was four of us. The staff was outstanding. They looked after us always. The food, oh the food, what can I say. It was the best Italian I've ever had. If I lived here I would definitely be here often. Thank you for a great meal and evening.
Food and house wine were beautiful but small portion in general.
Lovely staff and atmosphere very big portions. Pasta was nice but not outstanding quite bland.
Fully booked but still made room to fit me and my partner in and food and service was amazing.
Nice atmosphere, very authentic. Have to say our vegetarian main meals were very bland in taste and have tasted better.
Fantastic service, great food. We ordered the calamari Frutti bruschetta, papardelle coda alla vaccinara & tortellini so funghi. The tomatoes in the bruschetta would be nicer if they were chopped up smaller. They were a little too chunky. I recommend this place & would eat here again
Very nice. Very authentic. Very nice staff.
The food is very good.
The lemon meringue cocktail is a must. The comments of other diners was very positive.
Will visit again.
The atmosphere is something unique, starting from the waiters to the homemade pasta, everything seems to bring you right in Italy. The authentic cuisine is something you can t find in any other Italian restaurant in Margaret River and the customer service is exceptional. Highly recommend!
Angus beef was amazing, although a little rare, as were the potatoes. Spinach and feta ravioli was also great and both had delicious sauces.
Beautiful location, lovely inside and out, food was exceptional and service was amazing, absolutely yum!
My wife and I returned after a long time between holidays and found the staff to be really polite & helpful. Food was delicious and I couldn't help picking off from her Tagliatelle. Garlic bread was top notch.
We left with a nice reminder of how good Margaret River is. Pics of the food is after we started and put cheese on top.
Yum! Great authentic Italian food. Highly recommended. Thank you!!!
The most amazing homemade pasta! Extremely high quality food and dining experience.
Amazing food with beautiful and warm staff. It is our regular place to go in town.
Disappointed with the quality of food. Chose to ignore the poor reviews but wished we didn't. Food was just soggy and too salty. Very disappointing.
Huge menu, sensational food and brilliant service. Highly recommended
Unfortunately have to leave a poor review for La Scarpetta Trattoria after our experience this evening.
Upon being seated and the order being taken, a member of our party asked for a cocktail that was not on the menu, but was told it could not be provided (which was fine) so another option was selected off the menu.
One of the managers (Irish guy) then went ahead and strongly recommended another cocktail instead that was gin based. The member of our party said what if they didn't like it, to which the manager then said it could be changed if this was the case, so they went ahead with his recommendation.
The cocktail arrived and two sips later our party member didn't like it and asked for it to be changed, which it was. The rest of the evening proceeded and eventually it was time to pay.
Upon checking the bill the gin-based cocktail that was returned was still on there, so we mentioned this and another manager (Italian guy) came over to discuss.
We told him the situation of what was discussed with the Irish manager earlier regarding the cocktail, but instead of taking it onboard he said that the Irish manager had gone home and that he (Irish manager) would never have recommended a cocktail and allowed it be exchanged if the the customer didn't like it.
Sure enough despite repeated attempts to talk with him he flat out refused to discuss the situation or remove the cocktail from the bill. He acted like we were trying to get 50% off the whole bill instead of trying to get one item amended off our $250+ bill.
Never had this happen before in a restaurant but sure enough it left an impression that was not a positive one.
As a side note the dishes were fantastic and the service was even better from the wait staff, despite the aforementioned manager in dire need of interacting with customers training.
Yummy Italian cuisine..so so delicious and the service staff were fabulous and fantastic. A definite MUST if you are ever in Margaret River.
Hubby loved his steak while the kids and I enjoyed our pasta. For the quality of food served, it was reasonably priced. Good service too.
Had an amazing Valentine's day dinner here! Mouth watering food and great service with a romantic, laid-back atmosphere.
Very good Italian restaurant, with Italian kitchen staff. We had not booked and there was no more room, but the boss agreed to sit us in the hall near the wood fire. We ate well and the atmosphere was warm. The decor is very friendly. I recommend for lovers of Italian cuisine.
Fast and friendly service, delicious food, staff with a sense of humour, a short but quality wine list.
The service was great, the house red was fabulous but the ribs special was not good. I will still come back.
Fantastic food. Great friendly staff especially Jeff
Tortellini was an absolute taste explosion!! And the Angus Fillet is well recommended also. The atmosphere was homely and the service too. Will happily come back. Thank you.
We have been coming here for over 10years now. From Perth we always make sure we have at least one dinner here on our travels South. The food, service, atmosphere, and quality for price is fantastic. Congratulations on a place we know always lives up to great standards, where we can bring friends from overseas and know that it will not disappoint. Thanks again to management and staff for another lovely night
Absolutely beautiful home made pasta! Definitely come back here again:)
The food was almost plate licking good, it came out fast and the server's where amazing
Nice and friendly staff, nice and pricy food, cosy place. I ll go there again.
Service was good, food came out quickly. Staff were very friendly and gave us drinks on the house for our anniversary and food was really nice, not a huge menu but lots of pasta options.
Faultless service great atmosphere
And delicious meals
Recommend barramundi with llightly crumbed crispy skin , delish
Panacotta like silk
Awesome atmpsphere, pretty expensive, really romantic! Basically go to La Scarpetta if you want something special or for a date, not to wolf down some pasta!
From the decor to the service, superb, we ordered the salt and pepper squid, just delicious, then the main came, have never eaten a pasta dish like it. Truly delicious again. Didn't need a desert as the Lemon Meringue Pie cocktail was wonderful.
Worth the drive .
Friendly service, beautiful building, amazing food. Panna cotta and Lemon Meringue Pie cocktail were incredible.
Besutiful authentic food. Nice people and lovely atmosphere.
Great Italian food, amazing atmosphere and service also excellent!
Have been going for years and have never been disappointed. Recommend to anyone visiting town.
Very delicious restaurant, friendly service, Nice atmosphere.
Good, solid, Italian food and experience. A little bit pricy, but its definitely worth it.
Three times I visited La Scarpetta at Margaret River, and three times they fed me delicious Italian food. The trattoria has a warm atmosphere, and I always enjoyed my time there. It's a perfect spot to have a sip of wine and limoncello to finish your meal with.
The first time I visited La Scarpetta was when I had a girl trip with my best friend to Margaret River. The last time was this year. Somehow I always visited the restaurant in the winter time. I usually ordered a different dish to have at the restaurant. My goal is to try all of their pasta dishes that already sound so yum from the menu.
The owner of La Scarpetta works at Xanadu Winery on the weekend. The reason was simple: he loves wine, and he loves Xanadu range of wines. I was surprised when I met him during the wine tasting at Xanadu. The trattoria is one of the much-loved restaurants in Margaret River. A lot of locals visited this place as well.
I like La Scarpetta's Linguini al Cartoccio that is served in a paper bag. It's oven baked linquini with prawns, clams, zucchini, and white wine. The portion is huge, and you can take it away for the next day.
During my last visit to Margaret River, Sharon and I got to try their Zampone. Zampone is a traditional New Year's Eve dish of slow-boiled pigs trotter, stuffed with Italian sausage, pancetta, and vegetables. It was served on a bed of braised lentils and pancetta. We were told that lentils symbolise money or fortune, and pork trotters symbolise luck.
I think it's now a tradition to visit La Scarpetta whenever a trip to Margaret River comes up. La Scarpetta is located at the town of Margaret River, and there is plenty of street parking available. If you're not sure what wine to order with your meal, the staff are helpful and able to suggest some wines with a different price point.
Fantastic food and service. The manager went above and beyond to accommodate us even though they were booked out. The food there was fantastic!
Excellent experience with fantastic ravioli. Be sure to book in advance!
Friendly staff, decently priced food and drink. The restaurant inside is very great. I found the menu a bit hard to read and understand but that was just me personally I think. The language and the lighting made it difficult for me. But overall a great experience ,would recommend and I I'll go back one day.
Delicious food, cute little place, and great service
Tom and Dani have created a fantastic, authentic Italian space. Definitely worth a visit...many visits!
Service was good and prompt.
Had the pig trotter and Angus steak excellent meal.
Nice atmosphere, relaxed.
All the reviews were very accurate.
Thankyou.
Absolute Foodgasm! Never have i eaten anything so delicious!!!!
I feel bad we didn't take any photos but it's because the food looked too good and we wanted to eat right away!!
Everything we had was amazing but hands down, we were most impressed by the best calamari we've ever had.
Would recommend the Gnocchi and Ravioli dishes!
The staff were also so wonderful and accommodating as we had our infant daughter with us and were worried it might be trouble. Nope everyone who came by our table was lovely.
Thank you all for being such a wonderful part of our holiday!
Amazingly good pizzas, great service and atmosphere, super kid friendly and accommodating
The best Italian food this side of Italy highly recommend.
This place is beautiful, with real charm. The food was incredible too, flavour, seasoned, and the home made pasta is delicious and was cooked perfectly. I can heartily recommend the calamari, a good portion and soft as butter with a beautiful crisp batter. The espresso martini was the best I've had and finished the meal perfectly.
Was a bit of a sad experience with no flexibility for us as customers. My girlfriend's mum can't have olive oil and is lactose intolerant. Unfortunately they couldn't offer her anything so she watched us eat. I was excited for oxtail ragu gnocchi. (More the oxtail then the gnochhi). Had two strands of oxtail which was annoying for the price. Gnocchi was superb itself, but wouldn't be back...
Big tick in every box!! We had the pappardelle and agnalotti which were good portion sizes, however the table next to us had massive portions for their gnocchi and Tagliatelle. Pasta was clearly handmade and cooked perfectly. Dessert was a winner, rum and raisin icecream with almond sponge was perfection. Great service and setting. We want to come back!
Cozy restaurant and great staffs.
Big portion of pasta and tasty.
Damn amazing food. Enough vegetarian options. The polenta chips and mushroom ravioli were amazing, and gnocchi also good. Service and drinks were good. Only 4 stars as there was a mix up with our original booking but they called and fit us in the same night.
Stone cold and literally spicey garlic bread from the overpowering quantity of garlic(oil?). And I love garlic.
Waitress was quite snide about us not ordering starters and generally more food and then messed up the sequence we asked our meals to come out when one of us (a 13yr old) ordered a kids meal and had already finished eating by the time we got ours. Pasta undercooked and wasn't drained so starchy on mine and the food was very expensive for generally just okish quality.
Great authentic Italian food, friendly staff and cozy setting. The classical house like setting gives extra warmth to the lovely night.
Lovely food, great dining experience, staff are very welcoming,
As an Italian I have to say this is one of the best places I have dined in Australia.
Thank you Daniele, The Food was delicious!!
Would definitely come back and I totally recommend it.
Booking is essential.
Grazie!
Best and most authentic Italian food I've ever had. Lovely, attentive staff, food comes out quick and the building is beautiful. Pricey but 100% worth it. Don't know what kind of olive oil they use but tastes like it's been made with unicorn tears. Would have licked the plate clean if I could have done so without oooking like a barbarian. Would rate /10
Impeccable service and food. Staff were amazing, and the food was even better!
Amazing atmosphere, great customer service and really good food!
Really great home made Pasta dishes. Food was excellent and service just great. Portion size was just spot on coupled with a starter will leave you full and not bloated. Good atmosphere, even though the Venue is small our seating did not
feel over crowded.
Went here whilst we were on holiday, with a group of 10.we all enjoyed the ambiance it is a quirky looking restaurant.The service was good with a great wine section.The food was fantastic good flavour combinations.The only let down was the Tiramisu it tasted like a pre mix mousse a bit of a let down at the end.Overall a great experience look forward to returning and trying other dishes.
Tagliatelle with mushrooms and strabuone sausage! I also recommend the caserecce. Excellent tiramisu
Awesome food, Fantastic staff, great atmosphere. Highly recommend !!
Make sure you book in advance, very popular spot and for good reason.
Nice place but small portions.. we did order vegetarian
A welcome change from the shocking service up the road at Swings. La Scarpetta is authentic - amazing home made pastas served with true Italian hospitality at its best. The steak and roast spuds also looked awesome.
