I enjoyed the combo with schnitzel and spaghetti bolognese. The bolognese sauce was full of meat and flavor! We also enjoyed the special Spaghetti Marinara which was chocked full of fresh seafood. Yum! Even the garlic bread impressed us. If someone in your party can't decide on an item, the restaurant next door (Mongers) is owned by the same people. So you can order from either place and eat where you'd like! Both places are BYO wine & beer.

Tucked away down Bay Lane, the Lazy Italian sits right next door to its sister fish restaurant…read more Bay Lane can be a lot quieter than restaurants on the main strip and therefore if queues are long at the main hang outs you may well find space at The Lazy Italian. If you don't fancy Italian, you can sit at the Lazy Italian tables and order from the fish restaurant right next door as they are owned by the same company. You could go all out and have a mix of both fish and Italian. It is not a big place but my experience of it was quite good. The Lasagne had a very rich tomato sauce and the Mediterranean Salad that I ordered with Chicken was very well sized and priced. My only piece of feedback was that the chicken was super salty. You can buy non-alcoholic drinks with your meal or BYO preferred alcoholic meal matcher. Pleasantly surprised at this place when the queues for the other restaurants on the main roads were crazy (it was a lovely day inbetween Christmas and New Year so Byron Bay so it was high season and chocka full of visitors).

The garlic prawns were sensational, I'm glad I'm not breathing on anyone anytime soon! The ravioli with sage butter was a life changer, I couldn't finish my wine I didn't want the taste to be gone from my mouth. The chicken was our second main and perfectly moist and tasty. Finally we had the rhubarb dessert (a step down memory lane for my English Mum) and an incredible tiramisu martini. The cocktail menu is a delight to sample! The wine list covers all bases and left my wine snob companion delighted ;) Impeccable service tops off a perfect evening. Thanks Italian by the Pacific for a great start to a long weekend!

Amazing pizza. Equally, if not more amazing service. Our waitress (feeling guilty for not catching…read moreher name) was a lovely lady from England who has spent 18 years in Australia in beautiful Byron Bay. Her attentiveness, friendliness and seemingly genuine interest in my partner and I (we were on honeymoon) made it a pleasure to dine in. The pizza menu is varied with a few interesting options such as the prawn pizza with sliced banana. I wasn't feeling that adventurous but my Mullumbimby (vegetable) pizza hit the spot. Massive meat lovers for my partner which did not skimp on the meat. Both well topped with the best crust to filling ratio I've ever seen. We ordered a medium but a small each would have been better. We ended up taking the leftovers home; and by home I mean they made the road trip back the next day. My partner wasn't wasting them. The garlic bread appeared house made. Rustic... but what it lacked in appearance it made up for in flavour. A bit charred in spots but I Ioved that as well as the crispy sesame seeds. We were tossing up drinks. It was our last night with far too many drinks throughout our stay. Both were craving a coke but as seems to be the case in Byron, it's Pepsi or else! I suggested the homemade punch which turned out to be the nicest drink of the week. Pineapple and orange juice with passion fruit. Refreshing for the end of a warm day with no chance of hangover. Delicious!!

Ordered a large one-half Hawaiian and one-half #15. #15 side was good, but the Hawaiian side…read moreabsolutely amazing. The ham was crispy (almost like it was seared). Got them just before closing.

I came for lunch on a warm day so was happy to find indoor seating beyond the shaded seats outside that had been snapped up. The menu is standard pub food to which I chose the sirloin steak. I liked the option of picking two sides to add variety to the usual chips and salad. I loved the mushroom gravy however the steak wasn't amazing. Not overcooked to my medium request but tough and not all that flavoursome. My partner thought the beer was on the pricey side but I was relieved to find the only place so far that could accomodate a simple order of coke. Bottled not canned. We both liked the new order/payment system no doubt spurred on by the impacts of COVID. My partner ordered and paid online. Hassle free with a confirmation SMS that also let us know there would be a 30 minute wait.
