We ate here when visiting the rear courtyard where diners can choose from several local eateries and bars. The menu has lots of asian option and everything is fresh, steaming hot and perfect for sharing.

I came for dinner with my husband and mother in law. We were looking for a last minute place to…read morecelebrate Chinese New Year. We order a share platter, two types of dumplings and three mains. The food was fine but I wont bother going through the order because the service was so slow and disorganised its just not worth it. We waited over 30 minutes for drinks. I asked for a glass of wine three times after the 30 minutes before it showed up. At about the hour mark 2 out of the three mains showed up. The guy had only put in one of our two dumpling orders so the other came after the mains. We decided against refilling drinks or getting any dessert since we were already at the 90 minute mark and didnt want to spend another 45.

I found the food quite good. Service was good too. I ordered…read morethe pork in plumb sauce. The place is not that big so you may need to book

As mentioned in other reviews, don't expect this place to be a cheap food court priced meal, but they are comparable to others in the area and, indeed, to any holiday town. The food was really good, and freshly made, even if some ingredients look like they may come from frozen produce. Regardless, after a long day on the road this was exactly what I needed. They were also open later than most other places in the area.

Love this place. Food is lovely and staff are always friendly. Absolute favourite place of mine to…read moreeat in Geelong. Can get a little noisy if its at full capacity in there due to this being such a busy and popular place to go for great food but absolutely worth it! Haven't had a bad meal there to date.

Once at the counter the waitress told us that they can make to order which was good. I had the chargrilled chicken with chargrilled vegetables on sourdough bread. Was very filling and nice. Would recommend a visit if in the area

Stopped by without a reservation, which seemed to have been a problem. They let us eat here but…read morewith a time limitation. The cheese board was fantastic, the mains were also wonderful and delicious. The spaghetti with meatballs was a very salty but still enjoyable. The wine list had a great selection too. Waiters were polite and attentive, but it was a bit off putting to be greeted at opening time without a reservation we were rather unwelcome. Would go back without hesitation but would make a reservation in advance.

Start with the…read moreantipasto, choose from a wide range of pastas (recommend the ragu and the meatballs), but make sure you leave room for dessert - in fact for those thst have a sweet tooth just try them all. What I loved about Azzurra Trattoria is the family atmosphere...and I don't mean kids everywhere...I mean it felt like going home for a family dinner where Mum's cooking is better than you remember. Couple of things to know - this isn't a pizza restaurant, there is a fantastic wine list at reasonable prices and the bigger your group the better the atmosphere.

Restaurants receive ratings that discuss all the Yelp-suggested "few things to consider in [a]…read morereview: food, service, and ambiance," but there isn't a category suggested for what this restaurant encompasses. I know I can't even find one word. What makes my review particularly insightful is that I've never even been there. In fact, I live almost 9k miles away (over 14k km) on another continent. So here's the tale: My Texas daughter and Australian boyfriend (who both live in Brooklyn) just got engaged. Etiquette gives the BtoBe's family the opportunity to host the GtoBe's parents for dinner. Alas, with 16 hours and oceans separating us, I had to get creative. I set up a Zoom call for each of us, created fun games to break the ice and get to know each other, and sent each family champagne for a virtual toast. I sent dinner to my Brooklyners but had to find a way to send brunch to the Aussies so we could all have "dinner" together. I had to find locations close to their home that offered what I wanted--an elegant selection of menu items-- who could or would deliver. After approaching a dozen restaurants, only one responded ("We would be delighted to cater to (a small part) of your engagement zoom meeting on November 20th...Mimosas and all!"): Driftwood Cafe! On U.S. Nov. 19/Aussie Nov. 20, DWCafe sent our in-laws-to-be a lovely assortment of both sweets and savories, and I haven't even been invoiced yet!!! The food? Our new family couldn't have given more praise. Ambience ("the character and atmosphere of a place")? I've never experienced more character from a business, and the atmosphere they helped create was one of excitement, love, and new beginnings. Service? The definition of! Ty Simons (if my Googling has gotten his last name correct) is a jewel!
