They are open in lockdown. As well as pizza, there is real food. We had the fabulous lemon chicken and a rare steak mignon. Both travelled well and tasted perfect once we got home. Ordering the steak rare meant it didnt over cook while we got it home. Fresh vegetables. Best dinner in lockdown level 3.
We called into Da Sette Soldi on Friday night with no reservation even though the place was near capacity we were found a table and made most welcome . As we were in Auckland for an exhibition booking a time was hard . We managed to call the following 2 nights also and were accommodated with no booking (sorry ) would recomend you book as this is always busy and Food and service was superb !! 5 stars from us guys
Came here with family for dinner and we had a great experience. The staff were extremely friendly and helped us customize a pizza for our kids (they don’t like pineapple on pizza, the weirdos). The menu has a lot to choose from, which we all loved. Thanks for a wonderful evening!
Probably one of the best places I’ve had mussels at! I don’t order much seafood but this place definitely does it well. Was an excellent experience and I am definitely going again!!
The place was extremely busy and mostly booked out, but they still managed to get us a table. The food and service was excellent! The food was also served surprisingly fast. Best Carbonara in town, will definitely revisit!
Great service and great food. We had the cannelloni which my husband pronounced excellent. I had the terakihi - served with the right amount of vegetables -absolutely delicious. Will return again soon. Would give 4.5 stars if I could.
Fast service very attentive for you to get order in.
Entree - Garlic pizza bread, was absolutely yum, garlic cooked perfect, wasn't raw and that garlic breathe after.
Cheese pizza bread, that was beautiful, cheese wasn't fully melted to go everywhere but was so tasty!
Mains - spaghetti carbonara with chicken, absolutely delicious, pasta done perfectly and everything else was in proportion
Lasagne - easily done normally but mince wasn't too strong and pastry was not undercooked.
Overall a perfect meal and will go back to have Italian and know I will thoroughly enjoy it 😊
It is so good to be able to walk into an Italian restaurant without any reservation. This place has good friendly service, big portion for the price you pay. 1 main pasta and an appetizer can easily fill up two people. Me and my bf got a main pasta each and a small garlic bread. We took home my pasta and struggled to finish his. Will def come back next time
One of the best restaurants in town. My family has dined here may times and I have also taken business associates for meals here. Fast & friendly service, and the food is always fantastic!
Can't believe how busy this place is on a Monday night, this is a good sign! BF said the Garlic Prawns are great ... And I love the pasta and the pizza, both full of flavor ... Lovely neighborhood restaurant, we will be back!
Best Italian food I've ever had, so full of flavour! Dined in and had takeaways, portions are huge! Highly recommend the risottos. Yum yum yum!
Have been coming here for over 20 years. Best pizza in New Zealand. Cute and cosy restaurant with such friendly and helpful owners and wait staff. Highly recommend!

AMAZING! Haven't been back in almost 20 years but the owner Duli still the nicest guy out! The service was great and the food was as expected, divine! Humble, authentic Italian food served as it should. About to become the staple Italian night out again for sure.
This is by far the best restaurant we've been to since we've lived in NZ for the past 9 years. Food was absolutely amazing and reasonably priced. Large portion sizes. The service was great as well. Unlike the regular kiwi restaurants the food was not bland and had heaps of delicious sauce. Comfort food at its best. The place has a lovely cosy and relaxed ambience. We will definitely be going here on a regular basis, it's worth the drive from Orewa!
We turned up without a booking on a Friday as I figured a local Italian restaurant must have a table. WRONG! We went home and waited for them to call when a table came free. They did. We arrived and had a complimentary garlic bread on the table to say thanks for coming back. That in itself is service with a 10/10! The service was brilliant. Restaurant full to capacity. Food was great too. Local, quality Italian. Personally I prefer my pizzas with less cheese but I didn't choose the pizza so I was fine. Good wine list and byo too. What else do you need?! Thank you for a lovely evening
The food is fantastic dine-in or takeaway.
I eat there as much as possible. Great service and atmosphere. I Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys Italian food.☆☆☆☆☆
If your after good comfort food and a great ambience, this Epsom institution hits the spot - have frequented here off and on over the last 15 yrs and enjoyed every visit. Not the most exciting and authentic Italian food experience perhaps, however it delivers on a fun night out and I will continue to visit.
Been here on and off for ten years. Overall jolly good. Owners and waiting staff are friendly and efficient. Food is consistently good. I like the Chowder and the duck is excellent. The venison is slightly over flavored but that suits the partners taste. A place for two or four, Can be a bit loud at times.
I've been here few times now. I love the food, service is really good too.
Love the quiet atmosphere. But I do think food is bit pricey?!?
Great food,good service,fair prices.
I will go there again
Been coming here for about a year now. Great food, great service! Lovely and cosy setting, good for 2-4 people maybe a little crammed for groups.
a nice little gem that has got the service aspect of the restaurant biz spot on. Loved the friendly and efficient service. The prawn dish was not great but hey we didnt care as everything else was great and wrapped up in such great service that we can forgive it. Keep it up and dont go changing except for Maybe the prawn dish;-)
We have been going to Da sette Soldi for nearly 10 years and never once had a bad experience. The food is always wonderful , especially the Risotto and the Pollo Sette Soldi. My wife often asks for a prawn dish that came off the menu several years earlier and they make it for her. The waitresses are always friendly, as are the owners.
I quite often bring overseas visitors (who are here in NZ on business) to this restaurant and they also agree that it has a unique warm friendly ambiance with good quality food and always at a very reasonable price.
The Da Sette Soldi will always be our favourite restaurant.
Had the prawn pasta special and was delicious! Simple ingredients, but perfect.
Service was good and atmosphere lovely.
Have been going to Da Sette for 30 years and have never had a bad experience. The staff know us by name now and we are always welcomed with smiles and great service. The prices, of course, have gone up and the restaurant is not now just a 'cheap and cheerful local place' but we keep going back as we always know that we will get good food and service. Must admit I wouldn't take a huge party there as it is pretty cramped for space, but for two - four people it is just great.
I have been dining at this restaurant for around 20 years, I was in nappies when we first went there. It has since been the setting to many family birthdays and celebrations. The food is excellent!! The service we have received over the year has also been fantastic. I agree the restaurant could do with being slightly larger but that aside I am sure it will see many more birthdays as the family grows.
Highly recommend
The food at this place is divine. We had the Seafood Risotto, which was really scrumptious, the lemon schnitzel was amazing too. The boy was so impressed he wanted to try their Pizzas too, may be next time :)
We've been coming here for about 15 years. A nice family restaurant with great food. Everyone we take here loves it. The menu never changes but who cares when you like what's on offer. I always have the pollo sette soldi - chicken in a marsala almond sauce. The takeaway menu is extensive. The decor is a little tired/basic.
We had the garlic bread, calamari, lasagna and risotto as entree size and it was enough for two adults. All the dishes were delicious and the staff were nice and very accommodating with us having a stroller. It is a small restaurant and very noisy so if you’re not a fan of loud noise, it could be hard to enjoy the food.
Upscale restaurants with cozy atmosphere and friendly staff.
Delicious food.
Very quick and prompt service.
Felt really welcomed though we went there at closing time.
Good options to choose from.
The only thing would make it best if the pasta were homemade.
Paid NZ$46.96 (including surcharge for paying by credit card) for 2 persons dinner. The Hawaiian pizza was nice - filled with a lot of ham and the crust was crunchy. The Fettuccine Sette Sodi was flavourful and the sauce was creamy. Service was friendly, attentive and efficient. They helped us to get a table although we didn’t make a reservation. They served water without us asking. The decor was nice but was quite noisy as there were a lot of customers.
An outstanding Italian restaurant!
We ordered the risotto, seafood pasta and vegetarian fettuccini, garlic bread, marinated olives, salad and tiramisu.
Each dish was cooked to perfection. We weee served very quickly and it genuinely felt like we were in an Italian family lounge at home.
Have been coming here for over 10 years and never once been disappointed. Even with new management, they really put the effort in to make food top notch. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our dinner here. We really liked the cheese bread as it had a nice charred cheese taste. The fettuccine sette soldi and primavera were really well seasoned and sauces were really flavourful. The Gamberi was good but just a bit under seasoned so we added
a decent amount of salt to it. Dishes also took a while longer than we would have liked to come out however they did seem kinda busy. Cocktails were nice and refreshing as it wasn’t overly sweet.
Always my favourite ♥️ Italian restaurant, Never disappointed. Nice cozy and authentic place to eat 😋
Best place for Italian food.went there last Friday with family.
Food was delicious and service was amazing. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We tried pepperoni pizza and seafood chowder.
I loved seafood chowder ( signature dish) definitely recommend)
We finished our dinner with the Dessert (Tiramisu )A delicious night cap.
My partner introduced me to this place, and anytime we visited, we had an excellent time.
Food, service, and the comfort they provide are outstanding.
The dining area has a cozy atmosphere.
Do yourself a favor and bring someone you care about for a delicious warm meal, wine, and meaningful time.
Excellent food. We had the Garlic King Prawns and Pesce Del Giorno Grilled Fish for mains, also ordered feta salad and garlic pizza base bread . We really enjoyed everything. Thank you 😊
Love coming to this place. Great food, lovely staff always give 100%. Must say I was afraid when the management was changed BUT every thing is as it, same flavour, portions are as good as always been.
Love keep coming back to this place.
Great place for dine in. Been here few times and never disappointed. Staff is always amazing even though they are busy.
Do yourself favour, always call them before you come as most of the time tables are not available.
Da Sette Soldi Italian restaurant in epson is one of the best Italian place around their meals a wonderful and delicious and prepared with care the family team who own this are friendly and happy and would highly recommend this place it also has a great atmosphere
Been to this place few times recently, never disappointed, lovely staff, great service and food is Amazing. Highly recommended.
Wow great place, absolutely loved everything about this place. Such a unique family run business. Great food, waitresses served you with great smile. Even on busy night at the weekend, food still came out pretty quick.
Must try with you family
What a fantastic place, only tough to get in if you do not booked a table. Make sense since it’s not overly big and always busy.
Amazing food, service and vibes around the whole place .
Highly recommended.
Best Pasta place !
Nice place as usual and never disappointed. Potions are pretty big compare to other places. I have been coming here from last five years and everything is still same even though the management has been changed from last 6 months.
