Why it's worth checking out
Anchovy Bandit sits on Prospect Road at Prospect, in Adelaide's inner north. An acclaimed, much-loved restaurant, it's become a genuine local favourite — renowned for its quality wood-fired pizza and Italian-leaning cooking, a great drinks offering and a fun, characterful atmosphere, the kind of accomplished, sociable spot that's drawn a devoted following.
The appeal is that combination of quality, wood-fired pizza and Italian-style food, a good drinks-and-wine offering and a relaxed, characterful setting in a convenient Prospect location, ideal for a relaxed dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. Quality pizza done genuinely well, with a fun vibe, is a real crowd-pleaser, and Anchovy Bandit has clearly won over a big, loyal following.
With a 4.4 rating from more than 950 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time at Prospect.
