Sugo Mi Bistro & Pizzeria - Bulimba

When my margherita came out, I immediately thought now that 's a pizza . The restaurant was full on a Thursday when the neighborhood as a whole was not crowded, which suggests that locals agree. Does their menu have a lot of vegetarian options? No. Is it cheap? No. Are the portions large? No. Is the ambience great? No. Do I want another one of those pizzas? Yes. It was fresh and nicely charred and despite its square shape tasted passably like a Neapolitan style pizza, albeit much saltier. I 'm okay with that. Fair warning: between the gelato offshoot the restaurant has and the chocolate place across the street, I don 't know how I escaped without dessert.

Stale Pane all olive is an Italian pizza bread w/rosemary, olive sea salt. It did not taste fresh. The Gnocchi, which is described as hand-rolled porcini gnocchi w/Oyster Portobello mushrooms were tough and almost inedible. We tried three pizzas: Palermo with sugo, leg ham, scamorza mozzarella, prosciutto, parsley and extra virgin olive oil; Piccante with sugo, sopressa, mozzarella and fresh chilli; the D.O.C.G. with sugo, buffalo mozzarella, prosciutto basil. We expected more from Sugo mi. We left gravely disappointed.

Was a really great night, an impromptu dining experience where we just happened to walk past on Saturday night and they accommodated us with a short wait at the bar before leading us to our table. Food was divine, quick service and not too expensive; a great gelato takeaway shop attached for a cheap dessert alternative too. The only thing was I was disappointed they had sold out on a number of their menu items by 6pm !?! And when we asked to come back instead of opting to wait at the bar, the waitress wouldn't allow advising they won't hold the table if your not physically present

We came here for the beef cheeks, which had sadly disappeared from the menu. Pizza and pasta were good, pork belly was great. 4 stars for the food; 3 stars for ambiance (next to busy road and sidewalk). Better to eat here at a time that it's not packed.

I recently wanted to eat some Thai food on Oxford St Bulimba with 3 girlfriends of mine but it was closed (Boooo! On a Saturday even! so we ended up across the road at Sugo Mi. There were a few people there, eating these pizza 's off these wooden boards and they looked nice... so we sat our nice butts down and ordered us some food. I got the Margharita pizza for my son (kids meal it said that came out the same size as the normal pizzas! It was nice, but although the pizza crust was gourmet freshly made yadda yadda yelpa... it wasn 't crispy... so it was droopy when I picked it up and there was hardly any topping... like I understand a margharita is a plain cheese pizza and you put basil on the menu, but 3 leaves of basil don 't really take over a pizza if you know what I mean. We ordered the bruschetta which was really nice actually... really wholesome yummy tomatoes all over it with olive oil buttery toasted bread... and the Palermo pizza (Sugo, leg ham, smoked mozzarella, prosciutto, parsley evo and the Salsicia (Mozzarella, pork and fennel sausage, caramelized onion rocket . Sugo meaning tomato sauce base. The Palermo was nice... not enough toppings for the $23.90 you pay... but the Salsicia was kind of tasteless. Between the 4 of us, the meal cost us $139. Which really... is a bit expensive. That did include a drink each and a kids meal but really? I think this is a classic example of a restaurant that has incredibly fresh tasting ingredients a brilliant idea, pizza crust and it 's a bit wrong. The pizza combinations are questionable... so is the 'sugo ' sauce. There aren 't enough toppings on the pizza and let 's face it, we never want to fill up on crust. On the flipside... there in the alleyway lies a deli which Sugo Mi sells all it 's italian stuff they use to make the pizzas and whatnot... they have super duper awesome gelati there...free tasting!
