This is a small no-frills Italian restaurant with decent food and serving sizes. The focaccia bread was a nice starter, and the penne alla cacciatora was pretty good. Didn't really enjoy the peach dessert because it tasted a bit artificial/processed. Service was good and the atmosphere was cosy.Food: 4/5
Portions are small and food is expensive, it wouldn't be a problem if it was a fine dining restaurant, but it's not. Quite tasteless.. Kids meals were full of black pepper, they couldn't eat it. I had to send back my wine glass as someone else's lipstick was on it. The Macedonian? lady is rude. Would not recommend this place at all.
We were looking for a place for dinner and was able to get a table here when we arrived around 2030. I think it did help that we called ahead and they let us know that the last order was going to be around 2030. We arrived and was seated and given a bit of time to look through the menu. They had quite a lot of Italian dishes and also had a few specials board scattered around the restaurant. I went with the duck livers followed by the lamb with balsamic. I quite liked the duck livers but didn't get a full hit of the marsala sauce. The bread soaked up the delicious sauce so which made it super tasty. I quite liked the lamb but the balasmic didn't have much rosemary or garlic flavour to it. The chips were what you'd expect at a fish and chip shop. I was able to try the bolognese and I wasn't a fan of the flavour. It was nice but different from what I expected. I really liked the saltimbocca. It was juicy, salty and really tasty. The special roast veggie ravioli in butter sage sauce was nice but I did find the pasta a bit on the firm side. The service was friendly, even though we were there quite late. The decor of the restaurant was also quite interesting with lots of interesting knick-knacks. There was also an area with walls covered in postcards. A nice restaurant in Turangi for food.
Had takeaway for my second experience. Really is wonderful. Had the Turangi favorite pasta,ribbon pasta with ham and a creamy sauce and steak and bacon with a creamy mushroom sauce, both delicious. Enough to take to work for dinner tomorrow night. Fantabulous Food: 5/5
Service was poor. We were the only ones there and no communication on food or menu. Expensive for what we got. Wife ordered the special and it was only the size of an entree. Didn't realise we should have ordered sides.. but no communication from staff that we should order. Won't be going back.Food: 1/5
We ate at Valentino's last night and had a great time. We had the large focaccia to start. Spaghetti alla Cabonara and Scaloppine con Funghi for the mains with an added side of vege. The steak was tender and the mushroom sauce was the most delicious I've ever had! Glad I saved some focaccia to mop it up!! Living in Auckland I forget how good portions are outside the city. For example, the fries that came with the steak were enough to share. We got the Valentino's Special for dessert. It's better than tiramisu as it isn't soggy. Definitely recommend and always great to support a local, family run establishment. Thanks for a great dinner!!
Last minute what to have for dinner, Valentino's it is. We really enjoyed the quint Italian restaurant setting of simplicity, just like in Italy Rome my comparison. Meals not take long at all. No reservation made, thankfully had available tables. We ordered the Steak wrapped with bacon and mushroom sauce, cooked perfect to our liking. The Lamb so tender was delicious. And the kids meal Spaghetti bolognese and side bowl of fries went a treat our daughter loved it, couldn't finish it all and was able to bring home for after snack. Starters Shrimp cocktails yummy, salad fresh and just the right amount of dressing for our likings. Dessert the Valentino Special, and Chocolate Fudge, enjoyed every little bit of it! And the recommendation of wine to compliment our meals was spot on. The service was excellent. Thank you for our enjoyable family dinner night out. Just what we needed xo
I HAVE NEVER BOTHERED TO REVUE BEFORE BUT LAST NIGHT'S EXPERIENCE HAS PROMPTED THESE COMMENTS DISAPPOINTED DOESN'T D0 IT JUSTICE ! OUR HOST / Waitress was unwelcoming and rude to members of our group on several occasions during our visit The mains were of entree size at best and food was average We addressed our disappointment politely and gave HOST opportunity to put things right That didn't happen so Thumbs down on Valentinos from us
We came here November 19th. We're not sure. However thoroughly enjoyed our meal ambience and service. Will return. Te mutunga kee mai o te pai e how maa!!!
A travelling family all over New Zealand chose a little restaurant on the main road of Turangi. A Family dine at a mini trattoria in Turangi great montepulciano Italian wine, entree mussels in a white wine lemon sauce, was the best I’ve had in quite sometime. the scaloppine con funghi in cream was divine. Tiramisu dessert to top it off. Service exquisite and food catered well for all the family. Served to perfection and fast. Thank you Ladies Front of house and the Chefs. Great value wonderful meal.
