    It almost seems as though I have a mild case of déjà vu writing a similar review about a Mamasamba/Proud Mary owned restaurant. As per usual a new Joburg restaurant that is the perfect backdrop for your instagram picture and that is where it ends. The only positive thing about my dinner at Fugazzi was Bryane our waiter to ensured we were taken care of. He was attentive, friendly and kind. Now onto the food - I truly have nothing good to say. I understand that this isn't an authentic Italian restaurant but the basic shouldn't be that complicated. I had the carbonara, the pasta was beyond overcooked and truly had I been blindfolded I wouldn't have been able to tell you what sauce it was. I'm never one to add extra salt & pepper to my food as the assumption is that the chef making it will do so for me, however I needed every bit of extra flavour to try and revive the dish. My friend had the spicy diavola pizza which wasn't any better - the tomato sauce base had no flavour and tasted just like tomato paste straight out the can and the meat was under seasoned. All in all it was bland and not very exciting. A table next to us had a similar experience as we chatted about our meals. It is truly a shame that it seems bloggers and food writers have different experiences to the everyday crowd. Should the team want more information on my experience I'll be more than happy to share.

    Didn’t have stock of one of the vegetarian starter options and rocky road ice cream but otherwise everything else was good. Waiter should’ve informed us beforehand about the starter being out of stock.

    As a brand new restaurant, they’re still finding their feet. Service was not great and the extra veggies arrived when I’d finished my meal. I waited half an hour for my second drink to arrive. Pizzas were amazing. But the rest of our meals were average. Lovely decor.
