My friends took me here on my last day in Sydney, and it was the perfect farewell brunch!…read more There was a festive menu at the time that we dined, and it was great! 3 courses for $40AUD (or 2 courses for $35AUD), you know I had to get the 3 courses! For Starters, I got the Ora King Smoked Salmon Pate. For my Mains, I got Primavera Ravioli. For dessert, I got the Jamie's Black Forest Panna Cotta. Everything was soooo good! The ambiance was chic & cute, and the server was great! I honestly felt like I was back in the US for some reason!

I've been to Australia 3 times and 2 of those visits brought me to this establishment. My first…read morevisit was memorably bad. I couldn't recall the details but I remember not being a fan. My second and most recent visit helped extinguish that memory. Our waitress was very lively and sweet. She gave us plenty of time to look over our menus and made solid recommendations. I ordered the Spaghetti Alla Norma and it was pretty tasty. I also sampled some of the polenta chips which were surprisingly good. We opted to get dessert elsewhere but overall the food was pretty good. I'd like this place more if the prices were a little lower and they had more basic pastas available. I'm not a fan of seafood or mushrooms and can't handle spicy so I felt a little limited...although the pumpkin ravioli was tempting. Next time!

Vanto is in the Queen Victoria Building on level one and is open until 9pm (at the time I'm writing this). Cute little place with ample seating "outside" the actual small restaurant but inside the shopping area. We were greeted and seated right away and the server gave us a few moments to review the menu. We already knew we wanted a simple pizza so got the margherita and a couple Italian beers. Pizza arrived quickly and tasted great. The crust could have been a little crunchier for my tastes, but still was good. I would definitely eat here again.

But they tricked us when asking about water. And ended up getting bottled water instead of tap. So that cost extra. No biggie. Had a reservation so I recommend that.

Vapiano in Sydney's CBD is a popular, laid-back Italian spot known for its made-to-order fresh…read morepasta and hand-stretched pizzas. It's currently located in the historic Grace Hotel, and will apparently be moving to the Pitt Street area in just a few weeks. Gayle, Mark, Jennifer, and I recently met here for dinner. On couple went for the pizza, while the other did pasta, with a bottle of red wine all around. The portions were generous, the conversation sparkling, and the service friendly and fun. It was one of those evening where the total exceeded the sum of its parts, especially when meeting up with old friends after a too long absence.

Vapiano is one of my all-time favourites. No matter where I am -- London, America, or now Sydney --…read moreI will ALWAYS never not go to Vaps. Can't wait to be back in the UK and go again! My go-to order is the campanelle arrabbiata. The fresh pasta is amazing, the sauce is spicy and full of flavour, and the bread on the side is perfect. It's always made fresh and tastes so good every single time. The vibe is chill, the service is quick, and the food hits the spot. If you love pasta, you can't go wrong here.

This particular location was highly recommended. Order the Americana pizza. Loved the thin crust and the flavor was good. Looked a little overcooked and would have liked more spicy salami but, nonetheless it was tasty. The garlic bread was perfect. Glove don start to finish. Not an ounce of the bread didn't have the garlic butter which is how I like it. I would order from her again.

On Macquarie Street next door to the Land & Environment Court and across the road from the NSW Parliament. When you get to the Macquarie Street entrance walk down the stairs. You will be greeted by a friendly maître d and a similar layout to its Italian brother on Bridge Street. There is a bar and restaurant (Café Sopra) which offers delicious meals made with fresh ingredients. No fresh produce available at this Fratelli's. The restaurant was buzzing with suits. Which was to be expected due to its central business location! Loved the green chesterfield style seating and dim lighting. The service was great with our waiter being very attentive even with the a full restaurant. Could not fault our visit. Will be coming back here again and again.

Have heard many things about this place so finally got to visit last night. Service was a bit slow…read moreand it looked like they were low on staff! To start we got the zucchini fritters, burrata, and the cold meats plate. All very tasty. Then for mains i got the pork sausage pizza - i thought it was ok, hardly much pork on the pizza. I got to sample a few other pastas such as the lamb raguy and the polenta with mushrooms and gorgonzola - the polenta was very good! Lots of sauce and went really well with the polenta. For wine we tried the fratelli fresh pino grigio and it had more of a sharp after taste. Overall, I thought the food was good, I enjoyed all the entree's and the other mains except mine.
