Renzo's bar is a little Italian bar in the heart of Docklands. It has been opened for 13 years now and the Docklands area is still a ghost town. The manager, Daniel said that they do get busy on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and mid week is very quiet.
It is right near the waters edge, so this is a nice place to have dinner outside in the summer evenings. It is also right behind Etihad stadium.
I had read many nice things about this place so when the Living Social Deal $25 for $50 credit came, I bought it and they delivered. I chose a mid week dinner as they were a lot quieter then. The service was very attentive and the portions were reasonable.
Moreover they had Italian customers. Now that is a plus sign in my books as it means good food. And they did deliver on that.
For starters the bread was meh but the pasta was good, albeit a little bit overcooked. It was a Spaghetti marinara. The garlic in there was like "WOW!". It was a very good kick. The pasta dish was a little bit salty from the seafood which was fresh. I also loved the cheese in there. The dish was $25.50
The pannacotta was good and the chocolate sauce was a good match for this dish. I loved that strawberry pannacotta. It was not too sweet.
The hot chocolate was also lovely and they used this lovely Italian hot chocolate powder
Rating: 14/20- good meal on a deal. To all the whingers on Zomato do visit them again as I had have a lovely experience. Its too bad that Docklands is such a ghost town. I really don't know what all the fuss is about.
