    My group was visiting Bondi Beach and this was our favorite place. We visited two different times and both experiences were amazing. The sweet potato gnocchi and Barada appetizer were amazing. Definitely recommend the margaritas they were out of this world. One of the more outrageous eating experiences I’ve had in years.

    Service was not great Had to ask for bread 3 times before asking the chefs to hand it over to us at the counter to mop up our finished Burrata juice off the plate Cocktails nice. Gnocchi was flavourless and could have done with some fragrant herbs infused into it A guy smoking outside with his smoke wafting into the restaurant where we were eating. He should have been moved on!

    We love Makaveli !! The $26 fresh Gnocci and wine was excellent and the service was amazing considering we took so long deciding what to order! I asked for no Parmesan cheese due to my allergy and the waiter noticed that the dish contained pesto (which has Parmesan) and kindly told the chef to remove, which I wouldn’t have realised otherwise! 10/10 experience

    Makaveli consistently delivers! Their $26 pasta and wine night is a steal, especially the vodka pasta paired with a chilled red. It's a must-try for a pasta lovers on a Tuesday night and is also dog friendly!
