Awesome food, amazing service and a lovely setting to dine in. Highly recommend the pollo avocado. Make sure you leave room for the gelato afterwards too!
Now I haven't been here in forever and it seems to have made some changes. Smiles when I walk in, a relaxed atmosphere. The cinos tasted terrific and the cakes were just yum. I'll be coming back for a meal.
Came for a late breakfast being quite hungry. Ordered a big breakfast with eggs, bacon and some really nice sides. Just a classic breakfast that tastes really good.
Called in there with the family one day, when passing, and had a lovely lunch. They obviously care about the food, which I thought was reasonably priced. Went again for dinner with just my partner and had a nice meal that hit the spot, just what I felt like.I then decided to book them for my partners 50th, 50 people for a simple get together. This is when they excelled. The party went off without a hitch, the food was great, and I didn't hear a bad word said. From the first time I mentioned the booking to the staff they were helpful and at no time did I feel like I was putting them out... even after I called them with a couple of questions/requests, then had to call them back in a few minutes because I forgot something. Great service.The food is simple, but well made with some real little gems hidden in the menu. The decor is the same, but the simple luxury of linen table cloths is so rare these days. Five stars tends to mean a certain type of restaurant with a large amount of pretense. Hence the 4 star rating with a genuinely welcoming atmosphere, and a true be of service attitude.
I've been here many times for lunch or dinner. My favourite lunch is the VB Eggs Benedict which is delicious. It is served with Barossa bacon & EVERYTHING is better with bacon. Breakfast is served until 2pm if I remember correctly. I also recommend the Grande VB beef burger. My sister enjoyed the club sandwich too. In winter my partner & I had the soup of the day (bacon & potato) with garlic bread & it was comfort food. You have to queue to order food & drinks. They have a loyalty card to collect points & redeem for free coffee & cake or pasta or pizza.
Friendly, clean and efficient cafe. I love the giant fresh salads they do and for the price you cannot go wrong. My son had the fish and chips which was crispy, light and fresh.
I was looking for somewhere local that did a late breakfast and 1. Wasn't going to cost an arm and a leg and 2. Had foods on the menu I could eat (food intolerances and what not) and I stumbled across this little gem. The staff were friendly and attentive, the food loomed and tastes amazing and the cafe had a great atmosphere. The only thing I can fault is that the people we were with got their meals and had almost finished them before ours came out. Will definitely be back though
Bellissimo. Comfortable setting with good service. Able to sit outside, with umbrella's for shade, if you wish.
My friend and I went there for dinner tonight and we both had the Penne Alla Panna ($18 a main meal) - Ham and mushrooms, in a rich, cream sauce. Also ordered a supreme pizza, which had the perfect crisp crust - not too thin or too thick: $20 for a 12". Only managed to eat 2 slices, as the pasta was a very generous serve!!
They were also happy to box up the leftovers for us to take home.
We finished the meal with a beautiful cup of coffee - Perfect!
All in all, a good night - Rate at 8/10. Would definitely return!
UPDATE: 7th February 2017 - One of my favourite places to go for Pizza now. Nice atmosphere and great food. Come here every couple of months with a friend and we're never disappointed! My friend just loves the Risotto and they happily mix and match the sauces and ingredient's, so that she gets the dish exactly as she wants it! I actually deviated away from pizza tonight and had the Buffalo wings, with chips and salad. Very nice indeed. They are open everyday for dine in or takeaway. They even have a function room you can book. Food prices are a bit higher but it's all good. We'll be back - again and again :)
Just dined here here for tea with my Fiancee and had a wonderful experience. Service was great from the moment we entered the door with all staff so energetic and attentive. It's a traditional Italian Cafe perfected. The Seafood pasta was to die for. My man also said his Pizza was the best he's had. He return soon
I came to va bene last night to see that they have a new menu. I was pretty excited to see what was on it, as when most places change the menu it's always bad, but I was so pleased with it! Such good variety of stuff. I had the vb burger. YUM! Was great. I'll definitely be coming back. And will definitely be telling everyone about their new menu. Soo pleased with it!
