So tasty with great service - Edit
There were a good number of vegan options for starters, pasta, pizza and dessert. There is even a vegan banquet option, and the wine list also marks which wines are vegan. The staff were super helpful in helping with finding menu options for allergies. It's a great place for vegans and non-vegans to enjoy a delicious meal.

Accidentally vegan SA Chenin Blanc 😍 - Edit
Pinnochios wine and pizza bar

Arancini
Presentation was simple but excecuted well, flavor was aBit bland, crunchy with a flavorful salsa beneath, however there needed some umami or more complexity, some vegan cheese to up the flavor I thought, a solid entree none the less
Pasta
Cashew vegetable plauce, Yea strange texture, beautiful flavors but the texture was a little polarized, like I was expecting soft and delicate like the flavor. Maybe more idkf the cashews to be blended into the rose sauce,But the nuts were definitely there.
Pizza verdure,
Notsarella, eggplant peppers, artichoke, olives, basil pesto.
Wow, fresh, wholesome and exactly what you are looking for in both a vegetable and even a meat based pizza, you will be satisfied.
To finish my server, the manager wouldn't let me leave without trying the doughnuts balls with vegan caramel.
I was not disappointed, though I intended to take them away as a dessert later after my drive back to Newcastle, they didn't make it out the door...
The Manager and my server displayed wonderful, familiar customer service even though I was a stranger her passion for the job really showed as well as her care for my experience.

Great Italian Vegan Flex - Edit
Pretty solid menu including a range of vegan or can-be-vegan entrees, pasta mains and pizza mains. Also provides options for gluten-free pasta and pizza bases. Food is good. Little pricey. Would probably give a 3.5/5 instead of a 4 from a Vegan perspective.

Pros: Numerous Vegan options, Gluten Free Friendly, Great Friendly Staff
Cons: Pricey for pizza and pasta

A promising start that needs more vegan options - Edit
As a restaurant on its own I would probably be giving Pinocchios incredibly high ratings, because what Pinocchios does right it does very, very right.
Read moreFirst, their pizza bases are [censored] near perfection: That beautiful crisp thin crust that you always want but so rarely get. The rossa sauce is to die for. And the atmosphere is warm and helped by a high ceiling that adds drama to the venue.
However, for vegetarian and vegan diners, we also have to accept that while they have gone out of their way to include options, vegans are still going to be limited.
Let's start positive: The Verdure pizza is absolutely incredible. It's a near perfect blend of veggies with just the right level of vegan cheese. (Notzarella blend.) I have not tried their other vegan pizza (the Siciliana) but do not doubt it would be just as good.
But there's only two of them, total. Vegetarian rather than vegan gets us up to six, which is quite good for most pizzerias. But there is only one vegetarian pasta (no vegan) and only one vegan dessert option.
In short, what they have is amazing. I want more of it, and hope that time will turn this from a good vegan eats place to a great one.
Pros: Absolutely stunning food quality, Good atmosphere, Friendly staff
Cons: Limited vegan selection, Cocktails could be better
