    One of the best Italian restaurants we've been to in Sydney. There are a number of gluten-free options available and the wagu beef pasta is very good. My friend highly recommends the focaccia as well. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday night and the staff were quite helpful.

    Food and service of food was second to none. Only thing I’d say is we had issues to get quick service for drinks, and drink menu. The food and flavours of the meats and sauces not to mention the side dishes made up for delay.

    We have an excellent dinner at Maiz. The margaritas were really good, all the dishes were authentic and tasted delicious. The standout dish was the pulpo, it was so tender and the dish had great flavour combinations. The dessert was the only dish we didn't rave about, it tasted like a granola bar with some strawberries and yogurt. Maybe it was an off night! maybe we didn't choose well? It wouldn't stop me from returning though. The customer service was great, and all in all, a lovely evening at reasonable prices.
