Mizzica Mangiatoria

Mizzica Mangiatoria brings Sicilian-inspired Italian dining to 87 Camfield Drive in Burswood, Perth. The venue operates as a fully licensed café and deli, with food and drinks suited to breakfast, lunch, dinner or a casual stop before and after events. Its location is a short walk from Optus Stadium and Crown Casino, and the restaurant is also near the area’s mini golf and zip line, making it a practical option when you are already spending time in Burswood.

The menu focuses on familiar Italian cooking, including wood-fired pizzas, house-made pasta and a selection of Italian wines. The Margherita pizza keeps things classic with tomato sugo, mozzarella and fresh basil, while the ravioli is described as delicate pasta parcels served with a house-made sauce. For something designed to share, the Cannoli Tower combines crisp cannoli shells with ricotta cream and is presented as a centrepiece for celebrations. The broader menu also includes arancini, espresso, fresh juices, beer, prosecco and cocktails, with the drinks list covering Italian wines such as Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Chianti and Nero d’Avola.

The space takes inspiration from the colourful Carretto Siciliano tradition, creating a warm setting for family gatherings, dinners and catch-ups with friends. Mizzica also caters for functions and events, with custom menus promoted for birthdays, corporate occasions and Christmas parties. Its event-day service and proximity to Optus Stadium make it particularly relevant for a pre-game meal or post-event drink, while the café format gives it a more relaxed role outside major events. The venue’s own guest reviews also describe it as child-friendly and mention nearby open areas and a playground, although families should confirm current facilities when planning a visit.

Mizzica’s story centres on Raffaella and Anthony, two Italians who opened the venue to share the food and family traditions they grew up with. The restaurant says its recipes draw on the care of their nonni, with a focus on simple Italian flavours, fresh espresso and communal dining. The team includes Raffaella as owner, Alessandra as manager, Nicolò as head chef and Isabela as barista. That combination of café service, full meals, wine and event hosting makes Mizzica suitable for a casual coffee, a family meal, a date, a group gathering or a celebration in Burswood.
