Was craving for good pasta from a long time. Went to La Porchetta last week and it was awesome.
The chicken pasta was great value for money and tasted purely authentic and delicious .
Also tried the peri peri chicken pizza. It was also good.
The staff was friendly and as it was my first time trying food from their, the manager helped me to pick the right food according to my preferences.

If you like Italian food, La Porchetta Riccarton is the ideal place. Go alone, with friends or family, but be sure to go and enjoy delicious and very well prepared dishes.
The place is quite spacious, the staff who work there are very friendly and attentive and if you need suggestions they are readily available to help.
I ordered a rib steak with mushroom sauce, accompanied by Italian salad and fries. The sauces were divine, the meat seasoning was perfect and the cooking point of the meat was just the way I like it.
The only thing that I would suggest is having something to entertain the kids (paper and coloring pencils).
I will definitely go back there and recommend it to my friends.
We weren't sure about going to this restaurant after reading some of the reviews, but wanted to give it a try. The staff was friendly and we received our food relatively fast. Food was good.
But then it took a long time for them to clear the table and when we ordered dessert and coffee it took almost another 30 min to arrive. They mentioned they were understaffed at the end so not really the staff's fault.
This is our go to place for Italian cuisine. Lololong is amazing! He always has a smile on his face. Amazing service by Lolong!
Family dinner for my son's birthday Friday night, food was so good the service was great everyone was really friendly & polite I'll definitely be back again.
Great atmosphere. Tasty meal. Friendly staff. Tried their pizzas and pasta, which was yummy.
Nice and tidy place for having dinner. Excellent service, very friendly staff. Pizza was cooked to perfection and arrived in less than 10 minutes after ordering. Keep up the good work!
Wonderful authentic Italian restaurant, amazing service, very good portions, my wife and I got a pizza each and ended up taking half home in a takeaway box.
A massive menu with so many fantastic options it was hard to make a choice.
Must visit Italian restaurant in Riccarton. If you are trying to impress your date or just ticking out your foodie list, this restaurant will give you the best Italian dish ever. Coming from a country that full of spices and people who love sweet kind of spaghetti, their version of Carbonara in La Porchetta greatly suites my taste.
We order Italian salad with olives, Italian pizza, carbonara, tiramisu, arancini and panna cotta for experiencing the Italian kind of experience.
The restaurant gave us powdered cheese and some peppers if we like to add more taste upon our food.
It such a nice place to have a date
Absolute masterpiece of a place. One of my favourite restaurants in NZ, service and staff seem fantastic and the food is out of this world.
