Provini - Canberra

A good meal to be had here. Came with a group. Beer came out quickly. Bruschetta was green tomatoes which three people. My grain fed steak was good but would have enjoyed more jus rather than the light drizzle. Nice find for mid-week work dinner

Provini could be so much better.  I've been here twice, both on quiet nights.  The staff seem to suffer from the modern malaise common in sub-standard restaurants, and clearly don't give a toss about their customers.  The booths to the left of the bar are the place to sit for a quiet dinner.  The pasta dishes are good, but the pizza totally misses the mark.  These guys think serving pizza with cold chunks of mozzarella and potato crisps instead of 'house jacket chips' is ok.  It's not ok Provini.  Try harder.  You could be a great restaurant.

I was here last night, and I really liked it.   I had the pig's head slider. the calamari and the tiramisu.   The food tasted quite nice, prob one of the better italian places in Canberra.   Bit disappointed with the tiramisu as it came out in a deconstructed form, with the biscuits half dunked in the cream mix, and coffee on the side.  I'll have to try this place again.

Tried Provini, were not huge fans though. The place was very noisy and the food wasn't anything remarkable. The highlight was probably the antipasti platter… and the wine. Wasn't keen on the Salsiccia pizza (topped with potato chips), although it seemed pretty popular with other tables.

Provini was closed (possibly closed not safe and open table did not know.
