The Shiraz was served in a warm glass. I was happy to pay for my entire order, but the staff insisted I only pay for the wine which was appreciated. I'd give them another go as meals for surrounding diners looked on point.

DO NOT eat for three days if you plan on doing the feed me option because they will feed you and feed you well. Bring sweat pants, a towel to mop up the meat sweats you are sure to get and maybe a wheelchair so you can just roll on out of here after you have been to food heaven and back. The staff are so friendly, attentive and will go to any length to get that food into your belly but it is worth every bite.

For a takeaway Pizza place i was expecting the usual treatment, Friendly service with a slight wait…read morebeing a busy night. Well i was sadly proven wrong. First of all the young girl who served us at the counter obviously wasn't trained correctly, When my friend went to pay on card she said "I have no idea how this machine works" Follwed by " I have no idea how long your pizza will be". I also noticed while i was sitting and waiting that the manager and one of the dilivery drivers were speaking in a unprofessional manner about my friend who had parked out the front due to the positioning of his car. Onto the food. The pizza was bland and unappetizing accompanied by the overpowering taste of burnt ham which was generously placed on my pizza along with a severe lacking of pinapple. The crunch of the base was amplified by the freezer in which it was stored in, At one point i saw one of the employees drag out a stack of pizza bases from the freezer which was visiable from the waiting area i was seated in. Along with my pizza my partner and housemate had numerous issues with theirs aswell. No chilli, Cut unevenly, No bacon, Dry, Flavourless. The list continues. Rizzos will not be recieveing my service again.

We were on our way back to Melbourne via Ballarat and found ourselves hankerin' for some pizza…read more But where to go? I yelped it but got nowhere...not one pizza place yelped in Ballarat. So.....I sit here typing the very first one, quite proudly thank you very much. So I walked in and was promptly greeted and attended to. I placed my order and off they went to prepare it. I looked around and noted it was quite busy. Hmmm.....good sign. The smells were nice and when I watched the other pizzas go by they looked yum. Finally it was time to pay and go. It took around 20 minutes, 5 minutes longer than promised but hey, they were busy and it was close. We got in to the car and opened our pizza boxes to eat. We had the meat lovers, which my daughter describes as have chicken that tasted like charcoal chicken it was so flavoursome. I had the pepperoni which was nice and spicy with the hot salami. We also had a Super Special. My husband was okay with it, but would probably drop the rating to a 3 star because he just said it lacked pizzaz, the flavours just weren't there. He couldn't quite taste the different bits...the pineapple, etc. The crust, well, the crust should get a 5 star rating of its own because it was just right. Crispy on the outside but once you crunch your teeth just glide through the soft dough, which was not doughy but like soft bread. It's not too thick, but not dried out and super thin. For us it was spot on. If I lived nearby I'd try this place out for other dishes as well. After looking it up I found the website and this place has been around for almost 40 years! Come on Ballarat Yelpers...where's your reviews :-) OH...and there was free wi-fi as well! Very up with things. So that's my .02.

Gave us good choices of pizza - took a little while for pizzas to come out as we ordered the "all you can eat". We chose Vegetarian and "Chilli" Hot Pizza. They were both reasonable. Chips were above average. Salad choices were a little average. Presentation at the salad bar seemed a little average - maybe the lighting? Chocolate mousse was very packet tasting. Reasonably happy for mass produced food.

We tried a few places, but they had stopped serving lunch so late on a Friday afternoon. We almost walked straight past Sebastiaans, as it looked like a pretty average diner type place. Our stomaches however, would not let us pass up the opportunity to eat some food, no matter how dodgy it might have been. I'm pleased to say that i was very pleasantly surprised. We walked in and were very warmly greeted by the man working there. He was very welcoming and told us to grab a seat and that he's on his own so the only thing he's not doing is pizza. We were pleasantly surprised by how friendly and hospitable he was. After a quick perusal of the menu, we made our choices and scott went up to order. Very promptly, Scott got his milkshake served in a metal cup, old school style and he tells me it was delicious. I had the veggie focaccia served up not long afterwards. It was fresh, tasty, hot and full of flavour. It had obviously been freshly made and not left sitting in a warmer like many other places. The venue it self was pretty cosy and comfortable and as they are across the road from the movies, they have a board where customers can rate the movies they've seen, its pretty rad! Glad we didn't walk on by.

On arrival, my partner and I scrolled the Menu, even though our plan was to have the lasagna. At the last minute I changed my mind and had the Turkey Club sandwich. Not only was there Turkey, but also Avocado; Bacon; Lettuce; Cheese; and Dressing. I wasn't disappointed! It is one of the nicest sandwiches I have ever had! To come here, to write a review, based upon a sandwich, I know ..... odd ..... but thats just how good it was! The highlights of the sandwich: * The bread was light, fluffy and fresh as fresh could be. * The bacon was crispy. * The dressing that was on it but it was the perfect accompaniment. On another note, The Olive Grove is always clean! The only issue is that there isn't a lot of space between tables.
