Ok food and service good. Make sure you check bill as I did to see I was charged for a $35 bottle of wine that I didn’t order or get.
It was a nice evening. We booked for 6pm and got there before the crowds started arriving so we’re glad we did that. We had the barramundi and garlic prawns, and the garlic prawns on rice. Both were good. We thought the portion sizes have decreased a bit though. But otherwise a good night out.
Great local go to. Generous portions, something for all tastes, friendly service.
Had a great meal today, being a coeliac the menu had a good range of meals .
Was very good. Food and service was amazing as always 😊!
Prawn pasta and spaghetti marinara were both delicious and portion size was generous.
Loved it, food was great and service too. Would definitely go again
One of our go to local restaurants and we enjoyed dinner there Friday evening. My Chicken Florentine was tasty but I hadn't expected it to be soupy with the mashed potato being drowned in the sauce and the chicken fillets swimming in it. The steak was unavailable so my husband ordered the fish with olives and tomatoes which was also unavailable but replaced with a different but delicious fish minus the sauce. Overall the meals were nice but not as great as they have been at other times. Service was polite and atmosphere ambient.
Disappointed no pizzas at lunch. Rawness and scallop pasta very heavy on the cream. Too rich for my taste. Spaghetti bolognese too dry.
We met up with friends and had an amazing time. Staff lovely and friendly food great as always :)
This is my first time to come with my friends
Most impressed the food was absolutely delicious wanted a slight change to my dish no problem at all . Noise level fine able to have a conversation. Will be back.
Very happy with the whole dining experience. Good central location for catch up with friends from North and south of the river.
Enjoyed every time we go there, it has always been a good experience
Food was delicious but our main meals came out at different times….about 10-15 minutes apart….so a bit disappointing that we were eating at different times. (4 people dining)
I had the spaghetti marinara and it was amazing, my husband had the grilled fish, it was good without being great. The service was good but the restaurant lacked atmosphere. Overall an ok experience, the highlight was definitely the Marinara.
Food is great and portions are BIG. Pasta Mariana , Pasta Carborana, Mains Barumundi & Garlic prawns are amazing. Crowded on Sat. So we waited 45mins. But its understandable.
love this location, friendly staff and delicious food! this place never disappoints
Extremely quick and smiling service. Food was a very high quality and serving size.
Overall it was good however with the main meal there was a bit too much of a lapse between the first person getting their meal and the last person getting their meal. We ordered two entrees to share, we got the olives first and we had finished them before the garlic bread came out therefore the garlic bread should have come out a bit sooner. The waitress who served us was very good and friendly.
Nice ambience, friendly and courteous staff and delicious food. The food service was a little slow considering the restaurant was not overly busy on a Wednesday evening but overall we enjoyed our meal.
A very pleasant evening, food lovely and service was good
So happy with Sebastian's Italian Cafe. We keep returning after 25 years!
The creamy garlic prawns are consistently excellent. the staff are always friendly and do their very best. Supply issues after the busy Christmas period were evident.
Second time visit, was busy we waited 30mins for food & when it did finally arrive it came out staggered one plate wait another plate wait last plate .. pasta size portions were disappointing, so we ordered more food to cover hunger! Sorry guys you failed this time 🤨☹️
We found the Food was fantastic 😋 and the wait time was good 👍
love it. always packed. .always good food. will cme back.
Always great food, great service and great value. Well worth a visit!

good food, nice and quick service. lovely experience for us
We always enjoy going to Sebastians today with mums best friend. Friendly prompt service and great atmosphere. Thanks again
Staff were excellent wanted relaxing atmosphere which we got food very good
Very disappointed. Over priced, not all items available. Tardy service. Drinks one at a time, 6 meals 10 minutes apart no one could eat together. Won’t be returning
pasta was smaller portion than other meals we had. was expecting slightly bigger in portion. ordered spaghetti marinara. had 4 muscle shell but only 1 had a muscle in it but luckily was given more class. overall flavourful but just disappointed with dinner portion.
excellent food. wonderful place. lucky made booking. big portion for the price. will revisit again.
Delightful restaurant with friendly engaging staff. Will definitely go again
Excellent food and lovely Italian ambience. Friendly staff and great service.
Average meal..only 3 scollops and 3 prawns with the pasta for $31 so bit of a rip off, also have to pay for takeaway containers, problem won5 be back
Love the food! Would recommend to everyone. One of the best Italian food I’ve ever tried.
We dine regularly here, but today was terrible. Our kids only eat the pizzas here and they were not serving pizzas and we were not informed. It was too late to change restaurants as most would be closing up for lunch. Food took so long to be served and the restaurant was not even busy. Plates, cups and cutlery were just chucked on the table and we had to pass them down instead of them being placed on the table ready for us to use. The fish was terrible and pasta serving sizes just seem to get smaller and smaller. The drink jugs have also changed and smaller jugs are used that don’t even get 3 whole cups of drink out of them. The drink also tasted watered down with no fizz to it. Absolutely shocking dining experience today and sadly I have been a customer for over 15 years that will no longer dine here.
I have lived and dined in this area for many decades. The food tasted fine, although my portion was too small. The meal took one hour from our arrival to be served at the table. Wait staff service was friendly. One drink order arrived much later than the others.
A firm favourite of ours as you know exactly what to expect. Sebastian's are very consistent. My husband loves the lamb shanks and I love the creamy garlic prawns.
My partner and I visited the restaurant on 13/11/25 for dinner. I had the Creamy Prawns and Rice, which was very nice. My partner had Lasagna which was tasty but appeared to consist mainly of pasta with a smear of something unidentified between the layers. No meat was evident. However, on reviewing the bill, we noted that there was a $7.00 charge for "corkage"; since there were no corks to pull and we had our own wine, this charge seemed to cover the placement of two wine glasses on our table with no cooler provided. How can this exorbitant fee be charged for what is essentially no service? Perhaps next time, if we come again, we should bring our own wine glasses!
Good food and nice atmosphere. Service was a little slow but polite staff.
Excellent service and delicious food. We will definitely be back!
Food delicious Service was uh weird - random food plate delivery, had to ask for plates, cutlery. Clearing a table and asking about dessert when two out of four of us were still eating out mains. Wine bottle delivered with lid on and no glasses etc It was like there were no adults supervising the tentative and young staff. They were smiling and polite but didn’t know what they were doing. Sorry to be blunt as we thought the food was very delicious and well made
Great food and cocktails (as usual) and the staff are friendly and efficient .
Quite disorganised. Also I had finished my meal by the time my partner got his ( after x2 prompts). Prefer to eat at the same time when we go out to dinner. There was only two of us. We were told that there’d be some ‘compensation’ with the bill ( and it had been documented at the till) but this was not the case. Also some queries around the validity of my birthday voucher despite me producing the email voucher. We got the impression they weren’t that keen to honour it.
Delicious food and good portions. Service on the slow side even though not busy.
