My goodness, the best pasta in town (Maltagliati ragu) and the best chocolate dessert in town (the nemesis). Super quick, no fuss, professional, friendly and a good vibe too.

Cotto, an Italian restaurant, offers an interesting ambiance and a range of Italian dishes. However, it's important to note that my experience with the service was quite disappointing. During our dining experience, the kitchen staff seemed to stare at us, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere.The restaurant's interior still exudes a nice vibe, and the decor adds to its overall charm. The atmosphere remains inviting, and the restaurant has a pleasant ambiance that sets the stage for a potentially enjoyable dining experience.When it comes to the food, Cotto still serves a variety of classic Italian dishes. The menu features traditional pasta dishes, flavorful pizzas, and other Italian favorites. However, it's worth mentioning that while the food may be decent, the subpar service I experienced affected the overall enjoyment of the meal.Unfortunately, the service did not meet expectations during my visit. The kitchen staff's behavior, staring at us during our meal, was disconcerting and left a negative impression. Attentive and friendly service is a crucial aspect of any dining experience, and it's regrettable that this element fell short during my visit to Cotto.I understand that the behavior of the kitchen staff may have been an isolated incident, but it's important to address it in the review. Consistency in service is key to maintaining a positive reputation and ensuring that customers have a pleasant time at the restaurant.While the ambiance and the food at Cotto may have their merits, the service plays a crucial role in the overall dining experience. It's important for the management of Cotto to address any issues with their staff's behavior and strive to create an atmosphere where customers feel comfortable and valued.In conclusion, Cotto offers an interesting ambiance and a range of Italian dishes. However, based on my personal experience, I must highlight the disappointing service and the kitchen staff's inappropriate behavior. It is my hope that the management takes this feedback constructively and works towards improving the overall dining experience for their customers.

Great food, soothing ambience. We walked in on a Wednesday night, had tables available. We were seated outside and it was beautiful. Ordered dumplings, which was brilliant along with the pork belly. For mains, we had tortellini, gnocchi, the lamb ragu. The winner being the tortellini and the Lamb shank Raghu. Totally worth it. To top this all off, the service was on point. Thank you!

This place has a very nice ambience and seating outside! The service is super sweet and does everything to make you feel welcome. The place is very aesthetically pleasing too.The food that we ordered was alright and simple, nothing special. The food on the menu sounds very interesting and unique such as the fermented fries, so you expect something interesting to try. Once we got it, it tasted like simple fries. I definitely had better and cheaper italian food.The elderflower spritz was okay but tasted a bit watery, it would’ve been nice to have more flavor to it.Lastly, the bill had expensive drinks that we did not order. But it happens! The service was super kind, nothing to complain about.

A little slice of New York-Italian in Auckland. Best Italian food in Auckland I've ever had. Everything tasted delicious, and in a cosy little spot on K Road. Definitely recommend coming here if you are a lover of Italian food! Service is good, and left very satisfied meal wise and overall experience.

Authentic Italian cuisine with small, shareable plates. Although small in portion, each dish was quite rich in flavour so it didn't take much to fill up. Service was great. The restaurant was a bit too dimly lit so needed some flash cameras out to see what we were eating. The dishes were beautifully plated so a bit brighter lighting would've been ideal.
