We came here for lunch on a busy Sunday afternoon and were pleasantly surprised with the food and service. The margarita pizza was absolutely delicious, lots of cheese and the crust was perfect. All the other dishes were also well presented, however smaller in portion.

Lovely family ambiance, exquisite food and conveniently located in the heart of Parramatta. We went to visit Restaurant 317 in a busy Sunday and were pleasantly surprised by the great seating space and lovely ambiance. Their menu is big and there’s probably something for every taste. We decided to go with some delicious al dente pastas, a meat platter and some antipasto! So so good 😋 The pearl cocktails and Coronaritas are also a must!

I’m lucky I live so close because this may well become my new favourite restaurant in Parramatta. Food was tasty and there was definitely enough seasoning on the meals. Unfortunately part of my order was forgotten but nonetheless service was exceptional and the manager was very receptive and welcoming.

My thanks to Restaurant 317 and CPM Online Marketing Agency for the invite.

A perfect modern place for authentic Italian food without the generic/ chain after taste like you get from other Italian joints. This place is perfect for group dinners or a date, what’s also amazing about this place is that they have live music on the weekend. Overall, had a lovely experience, staff were very friendly and attentive. Would come to visit again.

I stumbled across this spot one night when going out for dinner. The food was surprisingly so delicious. The mezza plate was my definite highlight. We sat in this little alley way with ambient lighting, perfect for a date night! Highly recommend.

Lovely live music on a Friday night with excellent food. Ordered the rump steak and entree sized scallops for a main. Both were lovely. Steak was cooked as requested - sometimes this can be difficult to be perfected! (Unpictured) we ordered a Mediterranean platter to share as entrees which consists of pita breads and 6 sides (olives, hummus, tatziki, feta cheese, sundries tomatoes). It was quite pricey for what it was. $23 for what we could’ve bought at woolies! Nonetheless, awesome dining experience.

First off just wanted to say that the service here was really good :) The staff were very attentive and approachable, but I did come at a pretty quiet time in the day (around 1 - 1:30 on a Sunday). My friends and I ordered a variety of dishes and overall they were flavourful and pretty decent portion sizes.

Restaurant 317 has been a fixture in the Parramatta dining scene for over a decade, well-known for its extensive Italian menu and spacious, contemporary setting spread across two buildings linked by a shared laneway, which makes it great for group gatherings. We dropped by for lunch recently and started off our meal with Garlic Prawns from their sizzling hotpot selection to share. The juicy prawns were sauteed with fresh garlic in a delicious napoletana tomato sauce and served with some toasted bread on the side which we used to mop up that addictive sauce.

This is my go to place for food.
I absolutely love it!
Their menu is pretty extensive so it's hard to make a choice but whatever I order I'm never disappointed.
Located more towards the end of Church Street but is still easy to walk to from the station.
They have a big selection of drinks and awesome dessert as well.
Should definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

With a modern take on rustic decor, friendly hospitality and generous portions of delicious food, Restaurant 317 brings a little bit of Italy to Parramatta's Eat Street. . For these reasons, it has become one of the precint's most popular dining spots. Since opening in 2005, Restaurant 317 has grown enormously, and it now spans into the adjoining building as well as the laneway joining the two spaces, yet it still manages to feel like an intimate dining space.

Amazing gluten free restaurant! I had the Salmon which was divine, the skin was perfectly crisp! My girlfriend had the calamari. Service was fabulous. Waiter was knowledgeable and friendly. A little cold sitting outside. Was a lovely lunch. Will go back to try other things on the menu.

Loved the pasta here. So tasty and bursting with flavour. Can’t fault it. Both of the pasta dishes we had were impressive. The pizza was ok not as good as the pasta but it was still tasty. The staff and service were great. Can’t wait to go back.

This place actually has it all.
The food is incredible. Clearly the staff have very high standards; you’d mistake some dishes for fine dining but everything is reasonably priced.
Smooth, delicious drinks. Generous portion sizes. Fast, friendly service.
The restaurant is well set out, clean and sheik. We have been here for casual lunches, work Christmas parties, birthdays and even a date or two ;) each time has been fantastic and the robust taste and quality of the food will keep us as loyal diners.

I always have a great dining experience at 317. I can't say I have ever had a meal that I haven't enjoyed. Service is always friendly, great selection of drinks. They seem to offer gluten free alternatives for almost all of their meals which is great if you have some celiacs in your friendship circle, or are celiac yourself!

Restaurant 317 is actually so good food wise. That salad was composed so well with the correct amount of dressing. Pizza was above average - I would rather smaller chicken bits than one big slice and the creamy seafood pasta was delicious!!! Not the slightest bit sickening if shared with friends. I will definitely be back

Being a local of Parramatta I visit this place frequently mainly for their chicken & mushroom risotto which I love & would say one of the best I have tasted. Love that they do take away & even better do delivery to the local surrounding areas.

& when at work I have also ordered a risotto take away on the Biz lunch specials.

On a date with mother dearest she ordered the pork belly which came out exactly like the menu described with crispy skin YUM! Which she thoroughly enjoyed. Service was good, I wish I got the waiters name he deserved more than a $10 tip!

Restaurant 317 is a great option for some decent Italian Cuisine. At first, we ordered their garlic cheese starter pizza. The garlic was not too overpowering, and had a nice subtle flavour which was pleasant. The cheese was melted well, and the base of the pizza was enjoyable too - as it wasn't too thin or thick. 

For our main, we tried their spinach and ricotta ravioli Napoletana. The ravioli were really soft and flavoursome. It was quite a generous serving size, and was pretty filling too. The Napoletana sauce was rich, which went nicely with the spinach and ricotta inside the ravioli. 

We concluded our meal with a Nutella dessert pizza. It was presented beautifully, and had a fair amount of Nutella. The strawberries on top tasted fresh, and contrasted well against the sweet Nutella. They are priced fairly average in comparison to their competitors. 

Overall, the venue has a great atmosphere, the staff are friendly and they serve up some delicious food. We are looking forward to going back and trying more dishes.

Had a family dinner tonight. The service was great, the staff were really friendly, and the food good. The only negative was the crumbed veal was pretty small for the price and my son actually asked if I'd ordered him a kids meal by mistake!

We enjoyed the meat platter for 2 for dinner tonight. Great value at $79 and huge pprtions. There was so much food we only got through half so unfortunately no room for dessert. The staff were more than happy to pack us up a huge doggy bag of leftovers. All the items on our platter were cooked perfectly, no complaints. Very extensive menu with the most gluten free options I've seen in any restaurant. Service was attentive and friendly. The pastas we saw going out to other tables looked delicious and we're huge portions. Would definitely return to try more of the menu.

I stumbled across this place during a work trip to Parramatta. It was the perfect place to sit back and unwind from the day. The food was great, service exceptional and the ambiance was just perfect. Imagine sitting outside on church street listening to a live cover band on a warm summers evening enjoying what this place has to offer.

The place is cavernous with a laneway in between. It Italian. Nice thin crust pizzas, recommend their meaty 317 and pretty chicken satay. Coffee is great. Nice well meaning though inexperienced staff.

I went there tonight with my boyfriend - I had the seafood salad and he had the pork belly, both were delicious!!!
What really set this restaurant apart was the live music that was playing throughout dinner, gave 317 a great summer vibe.
I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a tasty, affordable dinner in a great atmosphere.

We went here for a friend's birthday dinner. The food was good, the service was a bit slow and overall, it was a bit too expensive for what we ended up getting. The restaurant was also cramped and we were all squished into two tables with very little room to move around. For a large group I probably wouldn't go back but for a small table it may be more comfortable.

An amazing night of food, atmosphere and service. 

I booked the private table inside for a friday night dinner with girlfriends. 
The night was a resounding success! We were celebrating a special occasion, and the waiters were so helpful with our BYO. The private booth was exactly what we needed, and since it was slightly elevated - we were separated from the main crowd of the restaurant. The interior of the restaurant is also lovely and updated. 

The food was fantastic! The portions are very generous, so we had to take some of it away. I had the prawn risotto which was divine. 

We ended up keeping the restaurant open a little longer as we finished dinner, and the staff never tried to rush us out like most places. All around, we had amazing service. 

Definitely recommend !

Had lunch here, the food was quite nice. We were greeted immediately, although the man that greeted us did look as though he'd rather be somewhere else. Although a little pricey, it wasn't too bad, would I recommend this place, based on our experience, probably but, there are better in Parramatta.

The range of gluten free foods is just amazing and it tastes absolutely wonderful - so full of flavour and everything cooked to perfection! Plus they are fully aware of non-contamination for coeliac which is awesome. The service is always the best - the staff are just awesome! 317 is now the only restaurant I trust when we go out!!

The food on the brighter side was amazing!! We requested to have the chicken strips and pizza come out as entrees. And as soon as we were finished, our mains (unexpectedly) came out straight away!! Fast service right there I must say.

The kids menu is a decent size and it includes pizza, pasta, risotto, and calamari/fish/schnitzel with chips. You can substitute mash potato or seasonal vegetables for the chips if you want to be a bit healthier. All kids meals cost $10.90 and the price includes a kids size soft drink that is sensibly served in a disposable cup with a lid and straw (big tick). Our little dudes had a pizza each and they were huge, so if you have small eaters they may be able to share a pizza.

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE on valentines 2014. It may have been a few months ago but they really have made an everlasting impression on me and I want to go back whenever I can.
I made a last minute booking and they were happy to accept me just a day before Valentines because someone had previously cancelled!
The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. They came around lighting everyone's candles and they refilled our drinks often. For the service my boyfriend tipped them well.
The food was even better!
We were not as happy with the pizza but the risotto really was outstanding and it is one of my favorite risottos in Sydney!
The restaurant is a littlle noisy and crowded at times but the design as well as the atmosphere feels nice. It was great for a romantic date on a budget!

Portions are moderate sized.
Oh also they took a picture of me and my boyfriend and never posted it up online which creeps me out!

Great for a date. Went here with my partner yesterday and the staff were so polite. I don't often go to Parramatta and am largely unfamiliar with the place so I was looking all over the outdoor menus. Standing by the menu was a lovely woman who informed us that all the meals were gluten free and can be made vegetarian if needed. When we decided we would like to dine she had a lovely gentleman lead us to a table for two. Instantly we had menus delivered and a very patient waitress standing by our side waiting to take our order with a lovely smile.
To be frank, the ambiance in this place is fantastic. It has a lovely sort of vibe to it and the decor is fabulous. Also, the place is really pretty on the outside too and we would have loved to dine outside, but we preferred the air-conditioned interior to the 30+ weather.

The menu is huge! But not off putting. The selection is great I would say. We went for the Mezze platter and the vegetarian pizza and a glass of wine each. The meals were received at good times. They gave us enough time to enjoy the starter and let it settle before bringing in a very hot freshly made pizza. The pizza was amazing! We even ate the crusts! It was that good!
For those fussy eaters like me who must use a knife and fork, the pizza cuts nicely (also the cutlery is very light in the hand and easy to use) and it's not chewy or 'wet'. Needless to say, it made for a very romantic meal because we both ended up falling in love with the pizza...and each other of course!

Price wise, it is worth the cost, however I felt the starter was overpriced. $15 instead of $20 would be more justifiable for what was pita bread, dips, a few squares of feta, unpitted olives and balsamic vinegar, but the dips were delicious and fresh as was the pita bread.

When it came to finishing our meal, the waitress cleared our table and allowed us to sit and chat to let the food settle which I appreciated. Staff were always easy to get a hold of and were very friendly.

Definitely coming here again and looking forward to trying one of their pasta dishes and meat dishes.

Gluten free delight. Fantastic food. Each dish that came out was full of flavour and we had the option to go gluten free on every one of those dishes. To finish our dinner we had their mousse swirl and Tiramisu dessert which were both amazingl
The waiters were very prompt and helpful and we didn't have to wait very long for the food. It was a very enjoyable experience.

We opted for the famous Grilled Giant King Prawn Platter - one with a salad and another with chips. The prawns were beautifully cooked in a creamy garlic lemon sauce and it elevated the taste of the dish infinitely. We also went for the salt and pepper prawns for starters and it was equally delicious. I highly recommend 317 if you want to feast on seafood. I haven’t tried the other chicken or pasta dishes, but I can definitely vouch for the seafood fare here.

My favourite restaurant in Parramatta. The gnocchi was so soft, freshly made and the sauce was divine. Accompanied with a nice Pinot Grigio and some delicious Sky High cocktails, we had a fantastic time. Great service from Gerard and Christine, very attentive and friendly. If you’re after beautiful quality pastas, gnocchi, pizzas then you have to try 317. We will definitely be back.. the lamb shanks looked great, I need to try them next!

This was my first experience here and it was a fantastic one. The risotto (pesto) is really amazing, the creamy prawns with bread and the garlic bread were out of this world. The lamb shanks too were really amazing. This amazing food followed by the amazing ambience was the highlight of the day. It's an amazing place to have a meal with family, friends or even a date with that someone special. If you love Italian cuisine Restaurant 317 is definitely worth the try.
