My wife and I love this place food is next level good!
Very child friendly, friendly and courteous staff which attend to your every need. We have been back several times now and it's the same everytime! Not cheap but I don't mind paying for top quality food and service.
Highly recommended!

Approximate cost: $90

We've been going to VaTutto for the past 6 or 7 years, for catchups, birthdays, and even a couple of Christmas lunches. We just recently recommended VaTutto for one of our friends' partner's birthdays. The four of us had a great night, delicious food - good portion sizes for the money spent, great quality and flavour - lots of variety on the menu for meat eaters, sea food lovers, vegetarians, big and small dishes. There's something there to suit everybody! The only downfall was a couple of young new waitresses, who we had never seen before, seemed a bit rushed/rough - one nearly took the side of my face off when putting my plate down. She was clearly not thinking about what she was doing while she did it. Granted, they were friendly and smiled, but I think they must have been new.... they seemed way too rushed and abrupt when delivering food for the ambiance and type of restaurant VaTutto is. Other than that though - absolutely stellar and we'll be back again (as usual!) Recommended for sure!

You simply cannot fault this restaurant. I have dined everywhere, looking for the perfect place for my birthday in November. And I have found it at Va Tutto. I'd say the owners work darn hard to offer great ambience and excellent food, using quality ingredients. I have read the reviews and sometimes there is nothing you can do to keep the public happy. How do you want the staff to be? There will always be personality clashes where ever you go. Some people like the waiters to fuss over them, some want to be left alone, some love the 'stuck up service' places offer whilst others expect people to be laid back. Service aside (which I found to be nice), the ambience is great and the food is absolutely perfect. Pricey, but you get what you pay for and I as long as the food is superb, I am happy to pay good money for it. I'm so glad I have found the right place to celebrate my 40th and i'm really looking forward to visiting again in November.

I went here for dinner with some girlfriends and the experience was quite bizarre. It was recommended that we dine in the bistro area as it has a more relaxed atmosphere which was more suited to the occasion (lots of chit-chat, as I'm sure you can imagine when 6 ladies get together). Two of the ladies brought their infants along (5 months old and 8 months old), and I know what you're thinking "how can you bring babies to a restaurant?", but it's difficult to leave them at home when they're this young and breastfed, and the mums need to catch up from time to time (it was our first girls' night out for a year!) Plus the babies were perfectly behaved and we were in the bistro area, after all. Anyway, the point of the story is that the waiter we had (let's call him BabyHater) was making all these facial expressions and sighing and negative body language, as if these babies were *such* an inconvenience. It got to the point where one of my friends (not even one of the mums) almost had a verbal altercation with him because she was so insulted by his rude behaviour. And then on the other hand, we had another waiter (let's call him BabyLover) who would come over and coo at the babies and engage with them, making the mothers feel special. That's what we would expect from a top-dollar reputable restaurant such as this one. Only at the very end of the meal (I guess after the babies had proven to be angels) did BabyHater settle down and actually crack a smile - a little too late as he had already ruined the experience.
On the plus side, the food was excellent, although a little pricey.
