The Haig Italian Restaurant

I went here for dinner with my partner and it was absolutely delicious. Lots of choices on the menu, with a number of great cocktails to choose from if you love cocktails like me! Service was extremely kind and warm, always checking to see if we were OK or wanted anything. Its a great little place tucked away in the heart of Canberra. We loved every bite if our dinner with great starters and filling mains with a great desert list to finish off a great night. I would recommend The Haig for anyone who's looking for a great food and service and great value for money. Thank you to all the staff that made it a perfect night for us.

After reading various reviews, I was reticent about what to expect here. Needless to say, good service, and nice authentic food. I had fish and chips which was hot, tasty, and tender. It's decor is dated but its warm and intimate. Best to bring your own wine, their selection is OK. I would go again.

Staff were lovely but that's the only good thing. Food was extremely overpriced for what you get, and you could easily make better for less at home. Cheese balls were okay, but bland and nothing special. Sausage and pea fettuccine was frozen peas (still hard, starchy, bland), cheap sausages and really bland. Prawn spaghetti with lime and coriander tasted like a couple of prawns with tinned tomatoes and a tiny squeeze of lime. Overall very bland as well and uninspiring. Pasta was undercooked, which was surprising considering how long it took to come out. Ordered a side of veggies as well which never came - even though we were one of only three tables in the whole restaurant. Didn't end up paying for them. Restaurant looks and feels like an old 80s bistro in a club and really does not match the menu prices. Of which, the menu still looks and sounds like something from the 90s, printed from Word '95. Overall? Avoid completely, don't waist your time or money - there is so much better in Braddon, and more authentic.

First time here in 2.5 years of living in Canberra. Wish someone would have told me about this place sooner. Food was great, so much that my 4 year old ate almost an entire adult serve of Bolognese. Waitress was very friendly and its sad to see the end of it. 😟

Service was great, food was very tasty. Even the kids enjoyed. Was a little taken back by the older decor, though they made up for it with taste and service.

Pretty decent restaurant....the food is tasty and reasonable prices. The staff are very nice too

The pasta meals were delicious and the chef came out to check with me when i mentioned that I had allergies. Service was excellent, meals came out quickly and i thoroyghly enjoyed my fruit tingle cocktail. There was however a limited wine list but you could byo with a small corkage fee. Enjoy

Just had the best takeaway and fabulous service. We'll definitely go back to eat there.

Very quick service, great food. Will come again. Thank you for the great and attentive service.
