AJO' Dimonius - Brisbane

Fast friendly service but you better bring cash. No EFTPOS here. The gnocchi was tasty and plentiful with a thin creamy pesto sauce. The garlic focaccia, or should I say garlic cheese pizza was good but not quite 5⭐

Best pizza in Brisbane! I rate this place over julius pizza and it's also lots cheaper. The staff are all very good people. Also accomodate for my pet dog ????????

Stone Fired Pizza. So simple, so cheap. Surly waiters an entertaining extra. ******************************************************************

I've had AJO' Dimonius (good food) on my radar for several months as the four owners are from Sardinia, where half of my mother's family hails from. The first time I stopped in they had stopped serving pastas and were only making pizzas. The second time I tried they were out of several items on the menu - they are small and popular, so occasionally they run out of things. On this occasion they were open, were serving pasta and one of the two tables was free, so I placed my order and waited expectantly. I went with the Ragu' AJO, a spaghetti with a simple beef and pork ragu sauce. It was only after I had ordered that I spied the packages of dried pasta and confirmed that the pasta wasn't freshly made. No matter, I was raised mostly on dry pasta, so this wasn't a deal breaker. The pasta arrived, topped with grated Parmesan and garnished with thin pieces of Sardinian Flat Bread. The pasta was well cooked and the sauce had a good flavour, though it was a bit wet. The sauce was reminiscent of my grandmother's, though not as good, but something I would happily eat again. The Sardinian bread tasted stale and even dipped in sauce wasn't to my liking. The dish as a whole rated a 3.5. As I was about to leave the chef asked me if I would be willing to try a complimentary dessert that he was testing out for the new menu. I agreed and was served a generous portion of Meringa, plated beautifully with powdered sugar and chocolate sauce. The layers of meringue were quite nice and this dish rated a 3.5. Next time I will return to try the pizza and will share with them my connection to Sardinia (I did not mention that I would be reviewing them either).
