About Ristorante Tartufo

Rich banquettes and vintage bistro charm set the stage for milestone celebrations and polished Italian dining in Fortitude Valley. Regulars make a beeline for the wood-fired pizzas steered by dedicated pizzaiolo Bruno, alongside regional specialties like braised rabbit mafalde in savory broth. Tableside visits from the chef bring a personal touch indoors, while pet owners dining outside find water bowls and complimentary treats ready for their dogs. Meals often finish on a crisp note with flaky, ricotta-stuffed sfogliatella paired with cherry sauce.

  • Wood-Fired Pizzas: Pizzaiolo Bruno turns out blistered crusts directly from the kitchen's wood-burning oven.
  • Braised Rabbit Mafalde: Bowls of braised rabbit with short curly pasta highlight a regional, traditional menu.
  • Dog-Friendly Dining: Outdoor sidewalk seating welcomes four-legged companions with dedicated hospitality and gourmet treats.

  • Regional Specialties and Handmade Pastas

    Handcrafted dishes feature traditional Italian recipes like slow-braised rabbit mafalde cooked in rich, savory broth.

    I really enjoyed the Mafalde al coniglio - curly short pasta, with braised rabbit cooked in a simple yet delicious broth.

  • Artisanal Wood-Fired Pizza Tradition

    Dedicated pizzaiolo Bruno uses a genuine wood-fired oven to deliver artisanal crusts with rich, wood-fired flavor.

    Having a real wood fire oven makes every difference to the best flavour. And Bruno the pizziolo here delicately tops the pizzas so you get so much flavor in every bite.

  • Engaging Multi-Generational Family Dining

    Families are welcomed with thoughtful hospitality, including kitchen visits to view pasta production and complimentary treats.

    Then Ash kindly took my kids to see the pasta machine. Before dessert, the chef from Napoli came to our table to greet us.

  • Thoughtfully Accommodating Dog-Friendly Patio

    Outdoor dining tables warmly accommodate four-legged companions with attentive table service and dedicated dog snacks.

    They have lovely outdoor tables, and the experience was just as perfect. Jefry at reception was incredibly warm and attentive, and even our dog was treated to a gourmet snack

  • Rigatoni

    I ordered the Rigatoni and it was honestly the best pasta I’ve ever had. The sauce was slightly acidic from the tomatoes and the meat had a nice Smokey flavour.

    Duck Risotto was amazing, as was the Rabbit Curly Pasta.
