The Stinking Bishops - Newtown

We had a very expensive, solid menu at dinner. eating is wonderful, but the kitchen is small, good for cheese tasting-size events. that meant that courses were coming slowly, which forced us to sit in uncomfortable wood furniture for three hours, plus the cost was over $100pp and the winematch cost an additional $50. the service was attentive, the waiter knew his weeping, but they were regional Italian weeping, not classic and not good. If you are available, you will avoid the Noi dinner and you will not have any wine they do not recognize and understand.

Upon entering, the restaurant has a strong cheese aroma which sets the perfect ambiance for enjoying a glass of wine and a cheeseboard. The mac and cheese dish was excellent, as was the bruschetta. The desserts were enjoyable, although the ricotta cheesecake lacked flavor and could have used something to enhance the taste. The service was fantastic, the food was delicious, and I would definitely return for another meal.

Over the years, we have frequented this restaurant for takeaway, especially now that the nearby food halls and delis are no longer around. This past Thursday, we arrived early and enjoyed a beautiful prosecco and glass of rose at an event on the bustling street in Enmore. The selection of meats was impressive, although prices seemed to have changed. Sadly, one of the cheeses was almost powdery. I inquired with the waiter about the origins of the cheese, hoping for some insight from someone familiar with it. The waiter assured me that it was fresh, but did not take any action to rectify the issue. Despite this, we focused on the other dishes and were never asked for feedback or if everything was to our liking. My wife even found a piece of plastic film in her meal. The service was lacking, as the staff did not seem overly attentive and appeared more interested in pushing drinks. The change in waitstaff also seemed noticeable.

Last night was my first visit to this restaurant, and the dinner was fantastic! The staff was very friendly and the food was delicious. The appetizers were sublime and the main course was amazing. The wines were perfectly paired and it was a pleasure to chat with the chef as he served us tableside. I absolutely loved it and will definitely be back soon!

Came here for my birthday, with two waiters in a full yet small restaurant didn’t seem enough. Service wasn’t as attentive as I had hoped. Cheese was magnificent so was the meat selection. Where they make their money is the wine. I would rate higher...if service wasn’t so sporadic. Cauliflower dish very yummy
