The Age Cheap Eats 2010 Score: *** "Mama's cooking is as warm and nourishing as the Mediterranean sun"
The Age 21-07-2009 "This unpretentious and slightly daggy little cafe in the somewhat more fashionably pretentious setting of Greville Street has the feel of something you'd find in the back streets of one of the small towns on the island. It's a homely place of sideboards and table lamps, of pretty plates, prints and plaster casts of angel heads displayed on white walls above the band of pale olive-green paint that rings the two small rooms at below chest height. It's the perfect canvas on which to place Pina Lazzara's food. Much is made of the desirability of serving homely food and that ... is what you get at the Sicilian Orange, because Pina is Rino's mum and she, along with a couple of Sicilian lady-friends, cooks there."
The Age Cheap Eats 2009 "What's not to love about a place that fills their cannoli to order? Nonna's kitchen comes to Greville Street fragrant with sage, garlic and sweet service"
