Il Toscano means “The Tuscan”, and is a perfect representation of everything I am, and all that I love about my home land in Italy.

My name’s Matteo – head pasta maker, chef and owner of il Toscano. I was born and raised in the countryside of Tuscany, and although I’ve now lived in Australia for over 9 years, my passion for all things Italian has never been stronger.

Nor has my passion for sharing it with Australia and the Central Coast. I noticed that while there are a lot of outlets serving Italian food up here, they’re largely not hitting the mark when it comes to quality, authenticity and traditional local Tuscan food.

Our mission is to bring people together for an amazing Italian experience with good food, wine and good times and share with you my strong passion and our local traditional cuisine as if you were in Tuscany.

    We booked an early sitting at Il Toscano in Long Jetty so we could secure a table inside, out of the heat of the day. The staff were friendly, and the ambiance was great. It seemed like there was quite good noise dampening in the restaurant, as we could talk to each other easily without raising our voices, despite the radio playing some lovely music, and the other tables being full. It’s a restaurant experience we haven’t had in while, as we’re rather used to being drained or strained from attempting to be heard over the noise on the floor. The food was also superb. There was gluten-free pasta for me which was cooked to perfection, but everyone was raving about the regular pasta as well, and the fluffiness of the tiramisu (which is made in the restaurant). The cocktails were also quite nice, I very much enjoyed the Hugo Spritz.

    I have been recommended this restaurant and I must to say it was an incredible experience. Although the restaurant was very busy, the service was excellent with Italian staff very welcoming and informative. The food was delicious. We tried Arancini, Marinara and Tuscan Fettunta. Everything was so fresh with lots of flavor. I strongly recommend Il Toscano Long Jetty.

    I felt like I was transported to Italy as soon as I walked in the door. From the traditional decor to the welcoming staff and of course the deliciously authentic menu. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauces were full of flavour - you could tell the ingredients were good quality and they’d been cooked with love. But our favourite part was the service - all the staff were so passionate and seemed to truly care that we had a great experience. We’ll definitely be back :-)
