L'Aperativo

Introduction: Situated at 340 Glenhuntly Rd Elsternwick the signage announces that this is a "Fine Italian Cafe" The last word is right.
Ambience: Crowded bustling and happy
Service: When the waitress asked if the Cabernet Savignon was red I suspected I might be dealing with an amateur!
Food: Quite tasty although totally lacking refinement. Good size serves. Fish and chips a nice peice of whiting in batter a small green salad and a mass of crisp thin chips was cheap at $13.50 and the Fettuccini Calabrese with chicken and mushroom in a white sauce reasonably satisfying
Wine: Licenced or BYO If you want something good
Price: About $45 for two courses for two
Comments: Open for breakfast lunch and dinner and serve 'till about 11.00pm probably best for Breakfast or supper
Score: 13/20
