Borsari was selected because of its full tables and extensive posted menu. Ordering was a problem because there was nothing that did not look excellent and excite the taste buds.

We had a grilled octopus starter that while good, was not special. Mains included a chicken dish and a crumbed veal. The meats were both quite good, and the potatoes very good, but the vegies were a let down being overcooked and limp.

The wine selection was OK, but the bottle delivered was not the bottle on the menu - a menu shiraz was actually a cab shiraz. While vintages are often inaccurate, mis categorising on the menu should not be on.

While there were no serious issues and one would not be disappointed, there is nothing to set Borsari apart from the many other Italian restaurants on Lygon beyond the wonderfuly broad menu.
