Overall experience was pretty poor. We booked ahead but were given one of the worst seats in the house - even the walk ins were given better tables. We actually had our table dragged to a better spot while we were sitting there!! We were offered still or sparkling water (not tap) only to be charged $6 for still water. Would have been great to know that beforehand considering it wasn’t on the drinks menu and we weren’t made aware of that at all, otherwise we would have said tap. I ordered the spicy vodka burrata and nduja - it was okay but there was barely any spice (I couldn’t find any nduja, maybe they forgot to add it??). The handmade pasta was good but it feels pretty pointless when the sauce didn’t have a whole lot of flavour. My girlfriend ordered the ragu, once again it was meh. There was barely any meat and we both agreed we’ve had better ragu at local pubs for cheaper. Once again the pasta was good, but it feels like priority needs to be on upping the sauces. The overall experience was disappointing and we couldn’t wait to get out of there fast enough. The layout, food and service just isn’t conducive to an enjoyable dining experience, and I write reviews literally never so you know it wasn’t good if I’m writing one 😭😭 won’t be back.

If you’re looking for a lovely place to enjoy delicious handmade pasta, just like in Italy, this is the perfect spot! 🇮🇹❤️ We had the Ragù Napoletano, and OMG… I wanted to lick the plate at the end!!! 😂 Absolutely delicious! The service was so friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was fantastic, and we even ended up having a laugh with the lovely people at the table next to us! Thank you, Favola team! It was such a pleasure dining with you. You’ll definitely see us again soon! 🍝💕

My pasta was very mediocre and expensive for what was delivered. I had prawn and zucchini and was expecting some nice prawns… instead a couple of prawns cut into small pieces… not much zucchini either.. very bland sauce… all for around $40. Ridiculous. The vege salad was kinda sad too. Very disappointing.

We have been to La Favola many times and always LOVE the food and staff. Last night we brought our friends who had never been before to celebrate his 60th. Everyone loved the food and the wait staff were lovely. Thank you so much for another amazing night!

Best Italian food I have had for quite a while. Previous wow Italian experience was in the States back in 2011. Focaccia with truffle butter and the Fettuccine Dal Mare (seafood tomato sauce) were unbelievable delicious. Tiramisu to finish off is one of the best I have ever had. Highly recommend this place for Italian. Tip - take public transport or Uber. Parking is a nightmare to find on busy nights.
