Your food is great! But, your young blonde waitress is rude. I witnessed her scoot our an elderly couple our of your restaurant, then heard her apologising to them. If she's so eager to go home, cause there's 10 minutes left before kitchen closes, there are better ways of communicating this to your customers.

We had a Sunday brunch at this popular cafe recently and ordered their specialty dishes i.e. Uovo Porcini baked eggs and Chefs Pasta. Both dishes were prepared with care and very yummy. We love both dishes and they're perfect for weekend brunch.
The place is not big and most tables are for outside dining, so not much to report for on ambience front. The service from staff members were average and we could imagine some problems when the business is very busy (like on Sunday when we visited). The prices on menu are reasonable value for money and competitive with other Italian cafes in the area.

A warm welcome from Rocco awaits you when you visit Cucina Espresso in Concord. Once he has your order he will hand off the ticket to Carlo in the kitchen, who will then apply technique and create flavourful and beautifully presented plates of food that draws on his Italian heritage. My tip is, your orders has to include the breakfast arancini. You will be surprised and delighted.

Cucina Espresso has racked up nearly eight years of operation. You’ll find the family-run café in Concord’s main shopping strip, which takes up the better part of three blocks of Majors Bay Road. Cafes and restaurants make up a good many of the businesses in this strip, so competition for the weekend breakfast spend is fierce. Cucina Espresso have risen to the challenge with an expanded menu of unique breakfast items, all while keeping a core menu for the bacon-and-eggs brigade.
Rather than employing fusion, chef Carlo Calautti’s menu innovations are unified by staying faithful to Italianate

Take note folks! This is what peeeerrrrrrrrfectly poached eggs look like! 🧐🤤
This is some of the best Cafe Food Sydney has to offer... Let me tell ya, if you're not familiar with Cucina Espresso you need to GET familiar! It's that simple 👊😤
Sunday classics with an authentic Italian spin - eggs Benedict with house made hollandaise (that speaks volumes itself considering it needs to be made fresh daily and requires a delicate touch), an epic selection of baked eggs dishes, various hotcake choices...
And the coffee... OHHH THE COFFEE! Though being Italian owned, that's kind of a given

Cucina espresso located in the leafy suburb of Concord and is only 20 minutes from the Sydney CBD. Although not a suburb you'd usually pass through unless you live in the area, Cucina Espresso is definitely worth making an effort to visit. The cafè is very popular with locals, we arrived mid morning on a Sunday and the cafe was thriving with customers. We initially sat inside and waited for a table outside, with the staff accomodating when it became available. A delightful place to sit and enjoy our breakfast. It was a rainy day, but luckily kept dry by the overhead awnings. The owners very hospitable
