Being in Altona right on lunchtime means we need somewhere to eat. The fish and chip shop appeared to be doing a thriving business but today, not for us. “Any time Italian” is my motto. Thinking about it “Anytime Greek” works also. But today Italian won over. Stumbling upon Mascalzone was the best thing which could happen to us on a sunny cool day in Altona near the water. Plenty to chose from on the menu and all looking extremely enticing.
Love my creamy pastas so that was my selection. Pricing is very reasonable and decor (though a little rundown) tends toward Italian but just. The food is why you would come here and if we lived in the area this would be our goto restaurant of choice. Servings are generous, quality is high and presentation is verges on fine dining. The meals were promptly prepared and served hot and well plated.
We could not pick a fault with the food in any way and left nothing except a dry plate. Coffee is good too and drinks keenly priced. Parking is just around the corner and a park across the road. Good location, excellent food, good service and good pricing make this spot a spot for all to go. Worth the drive if you are not a local and if you are a local and haven’t dined here, you should.
