Food was excellent all round as was the service - our young lady was learning and only had the one small hickup. If i was local this would be one of my regular restaurants.

I started dropping in for coffees a few years ago as they make the best Affogato's. I then stopped in for lunch and loved the pasta. Carbonara was superb. I then took a crew of friends to dinner there and everyone loved it. Since then I've become a semi regular dinner diner there because the steaks are the best I've ever had. I just had to write this review now because the Rib Eye steak that they have at the moment is Astounding . I took two buddies from Belgium there on Thursday and they couldn't believe their eyes or their taste buds . Keep up the good cooking guys. We will be back real soon

Ordered a takeaway of an entree size norwest squid for lunch. Squid was tender and not overcooked or rubbery, it was well marinated and went well with the thai dressing. Possibly slightly overcharred though as some pieces tasted bitter

Came here with family for lunch. Shared bread and dips for entree, which was pretty average and small portion of dips to the bread serving. Main I had the garlic prawns (entree size), which was tasty.

Dined last night. Im a big fish and squid fan. I asked to deviate from the menu... combine the olive feta salad with some grilled fish and squid on top. They were extremely accomodating and to my amazement i was served a HUGE portion... Wow!!! It was one of the best seafood meals ive had... ever!. So tender, delicious and enough to feed 2-3!! They were very obliging to let me take home half. The passionfruit cocktail was also superb... plenty of fresh passionfruit... my other favourite! All in all... fabulous food and service - friendly and accomodating. Thank you chef for your flexibility and generosity. BIG TICKS!!!!

Have eaten here many many times - decent Italian food and, importantly, open late and serving coffee when I need it! Always have a good time and leave full and satisfied.

Cakes are decent too, I like the lemon meringue pie.

Was taken here for a work dinner and was pleasently surprised. I don't often go out for Italian but this was just an honest, good meal. Not many free tables on a Monday night but the service was still good. A surprising find in a quiet location, hopefully it lives up to this experience if I ever return. I had the scallopine alla panna.

But the respond That I get is.."we will try"
And the food came in 10m after.Which is quite amazing in the busy cafe.
The food is not bad either.
We will come back again
Thank you

Lunch with visiting Japanese exchange student and 3 other teenagers and a working mum. An opportunity to try pasta and seafood. Starting from the back with the dessert selection. Scrumptious baked risotto was delicious with tiny baby octopus at $32. Rice infused with all the seafood broth. The lasagne was not quite like how mum made it but with lots of fine mince meat and mushrooms at $25.

I've been here a fair few times and it's standard has never dropped. I'm quite happy with the service and food here - nothing too fancy, but they are consistent and friendly. Had the Spaghetti Beef Pesto and the Linguine alla Tiamo with a side order of sweet potato chips. The chips was crispy, self cut and well fried, nice aioli too. The beef pesto was flavoursome with strong parmesan and pesto, also held a smoked scent to it too. The linguine was quite light with a nice flavour to it - a healthier alternative to pasta. Lastly ordered their special dessert with is a churros nest with vanilla ice cream. Nice churro base which they made into a sort of bowl for the ice cream - interesting, not too sweet or heavy, which is nice. Overall, still quite happy with this place over the many years.

The waiter who served us when we went for dinner was very friendly. I ordered the Nor-West squid, which came out tender and had a nice charred flavour to it, and the dressing had a good balance of sweet and sour. My friend is allergic to egg and she really likes the egg-free pasta that they do here.

What strikes me about this restaurant is that they serve an Indonesian dish, Nasi Goreng! Pretty brave I must say! But in an Italian restaurant, why would I want to order an Asian dish?

I go to Tiamo for special lunches, and have always been served well. The staff members are friendly and prompt with their service. It has a nice, simple decor, and clean. The place gets filled up pretty quickly, too. The food isn't too expensive considering it's in a Western suburb. They're delicious, have a home cooking feeling/taste and plentiful. My favorite: Linguini alla Tiamo, love the chilli, garlic, onion, and olive oil combo! (The bacon enhances the flavour for sure!)

My Mum, sister and I went there for lunch today. I had never been here before and it was excellent. We had the duck cappelletti, pork scallopini and the chicken salad. The duck cappelletti was gorgeous and the portion size just right and my Mums pork was tender and the mushrooms on top were delicious too. Desert was salted caramel tart for me which was heavenly and Mum had the bread and butter pudding which was unlike other bread and butter puddings but still great. Would definitely recommend :)

Brunchfast. Went to tiamo for brunchfast.

Service was good and fast.

Coffee was reasonable priced at $3.80.

My collegues had the big breakfast. Nothing special in that its standard eggs, toast, hash brown and bacon.
One of my other collegues had the omellete. Was impressed by the size (easily half the plate), and very heavily filled with ham % mushroom. It was also cheaper than the big breakfast.

Had the tiramasu cake ($9), was pretty sweet, but overall good.

My collegues had the big breakfast, which was just your standard, sausage, hash brown, eggs, sour dough bread, and grilled tomatos. Nothing speacial you wouldn't be able to make at home.

One of my other collegue had the omellete. Really recommend the omellete over the big breakfast, as the omellete look substantial, had mushroom, and ham inside it, and overall looked and tasted very good. It was also cheaper than the big breakfast.

I have never been a fan of Tiamo but called in yesterday for coffee and cake, most of the other cafes on Hamden Road were closed so it was Tiamo or Dome. Was surprised by how much it has changed. Great coffee and loved the salted caramel tart. I will be back...

Sunday breakfast review. Mr partner & I came here for breakfast on Sunday the 17th. We did not have a booking and so did not expect to be seated so promptly and treated with such respect. The hostess greated us with a huge smile and well manners. We were seated at a large table at the front of the restaurant next to the counter. The atmosphere was wonderful! The restaurant was well decorated with vibrant colours, bamboo sticks, a water feature, plants and bright lighting. It was definitely a fantastic setting and display for a Sunday morning breakfast. We were served promptly but the same wonderful waitress and our food was brought out to our table only 5 - 10 minutes later. The staff left us in peace only checking on the table once when they saw our water running low. The big breakfast was beautifully presented and was large, I got the berry pancakes which were bursting with flavour but still so fluffy and light!! The coffee tasted a slight bit burnt but overall the service, atmosphere and food was incredible! I highly recommend Tiamo.

Great for Breakfast. I've been to Tiamo's twice now for breakfast. The. First time with a group of 16 and this morning with a group of 6. Both times I have really enjoyed it! The food is great. The Bircher muesli is absolutely gorgeous! All the food came out together and all the coffees came out together when we were midway through our food-just perfect!! It's rare everyone gets served at the same time in Perth so this makes a great change! The atmosphere was good and the staff were quite helpful, refilling our water without us having to ask etc. We'll definitely recommend this place to friends.

Restaurant about 3/4 full. Good range of food available. I ordered spinach salad with chicken, no croutons and dressing on the side. My friend ordered Turkish bread and dips. Both well presented and my salad came as ordered. Water brought to table although room temperature not chilled. All good this far. From here service seems to get away from them. Another Waitress came to clear table and offered desert menu however does not return with it. Friend requests second serve of dip however waitress comes back with soiling. After 20 min original waitress comes back. This waitress, after telling her we had been offered desert menu however had not received. This waitress smokes and we have a joke. She not only brings the menu but notices my friend did not touch the aoili. After my friend tells waitress of mistake, she removes it from the bill. We order rhubarb and apple crumble with icecream. In the end, we leave fairly happy. Overall problems with some service but good food

Gnochi from heaven!. I recently had a meal with friends at Tiamo. I'd only ever had coffee there on my way between meetings in the past. But man! What an awesome surprise.
I chose the Gnochi, on recommendation from a friend. I come from a family of very good cooks, so I'm accustomed to good food. Saying that, this was sensational. Just perfect. Loved it.
Sooo, on top of what I think is equal pegging for the best coffee in town, the Gnochi is second to none. Loved it. I will keep being a regular customer, but now, for full sit down meals, not just coffee.

Great food, good value, rude staff. Myself and my partner had a quick bite to eat here today; I had the Seafood Basket w/ a chai, she had the Thai Prawn Salad with a skinny cap. Both meals and drinks were fantastic, and the servings were enormous for the money paid. Admittedly the crumbed fish in the Seafood Basket did slightly resemble shop-bought frozen crumbed fish, and the chips likewise to those bought from McDonalds (I prefer thick-cut chips, not skinny fries, thanks!), but it was still great-tasting nonetheless.

All in all, great food and good value for money, however the staff were very rude and abrupt.

Tasty Waiter, Tasty Food. We were served by a cute waiter who was the perfect combination of sexy and cute... I believe his name was Chris.

Our food was delicious (I had some form of potato and veal pasta deliciousness) with a generous glass of their smooth house red.

The sundae is perfect to share (and to lovingly feed your other half across the table and smear their face in cream).

Perennial favourite. 4 of us had dinner here on a stormy wednesday night.
Roomy restaurant, excellent service and the food was good, as has been the case for years.
It's always in the entertainment book and a 25% discount makes it quite reasonable with BYO wine.
Chilli mussels are always a favourite and the Linguine Tiamo had a nice chilli tweak.
A good place to catch up with friends.
Only ever been for dinner and it's always been nice.

Nice dinner. Went for dinner on a Tuesday night, welcomed with a big smile from the waiter and promptly poured water (though wasn't asked if still or sparkling and automatically served sparkling which I can't stand but never mind they brought a whole bottle with still straight away after we asked).
My diner and I both ordered the Spaghetti Marinara and it was delicious. A huge serving and full of seafood (even about 8 mussels), was very happy with it.
Really enjoy the ambiance of the place too.

A cafe with honest food. If you have been disappointed by the pretentious and expensive food served at many Perth eateries then read on.

Tiamo doesn't pretend to be something it's not - and that is said in a very positive way. If you are just looking for a cafe that serves honest food at a fair price then Tiamo hits the spot. This is food for normal, real people.

If, however, you are looking for trendy, faddish food, or a place "to be seen" then you best look elsewhere.

Well done Tiamo. I will be back again.

Yummy Pasta & Great Coffee. The Penne Tricolore (chicken, spinach and sundried tomatoes in a seeded mustard, white wine and cream sauce) was absolutely YUMMO!! Pasta cooked perfectly, sauce tasty and not too sickly creamy, could have done with a bit more spinach but overall a good, honest Italian pasta dish.
Coffee was absolutely spot on, cappucino not too bitter or strong but hot enough to last me a few minutes instead of being gulped down in a few seconds like some cafes make it. A great experience for my first time here.

Good, honest food.. We dine frequently at Tiamo. The word that best sums up this restaurant is reliable. When other places let us down by being unexpectledy closed, or overbooked, or stupidly expensive, or confusing food with sculpture, Tiamo is there.

It is always open, the prices are very reasonable, the service is generally prompt, and the food is for eating and enjoying, not photographing or analysing. The menu has a good range of familiar Italian-themed choices, and there are usually four or five specials that add variety.

The servings are generous and tasty. There's also a good number of dessert options! Tiamo isn't trying to win awards for innovation, so you won't be made to eat bizarre concoctions dreamed up by some bad-boy chef who is trying to get famous at your expense. It's a good, honest eatery.

Good on ya Tiamo. Everytime we go back to Perth for a holiday, we would venture to Tiamo. The price is good and reasonable for the size of the serving. It is a down to earth, corner cafe restaurant. Nothing flashy-great place to catch up with friends or get together dinner with families. We travel frequently (interstates and overseas), we would always go to Tiamo even for coffee (if time permits) when we drop into Perth.
Those who whinged that it is pricey, geez, you should venture out to some other shocking cafes/restaurants in Perth which serves you smaller portion, poorer service and quality of food.

My Hopeful Local. I LOVE this place!!!

It's a does-what-it-says-on-the-tin kind of place.... Delicious, home-cooking style food...always busy - I live around the corner and have never seen it empty...

A couple of reviews complaining about things like a lack of wine being poured for you....I find I have arms with these useful contraptions called hands on the end and am quite capable of pouring my own wine...

It's not a 'fine dining' experience, it's just good, honest food in mellow surroundings with cheerful (most of the time) staff. I have once had a waiter that had the personality of a fish-finger and seemed on the brink of mass murder but it wasn't enough to put me off my tasty food and pretty reasonable bill...I haven't seen him since and can only assume that he's serving serious time.

The chilli mussels are DELICIOUS...the Moroccan lamb another fave...in fact all of the lamb dishes are spot on. The gnocchi is great, as is the steak.

I ate the whole chocolate mud cake to myself whilst my boyfriend was in the toilet as I couldn't bear to share it, risking getting fat and being dumped in one heavenly, moist, gooey taste explosion.

YUM.

Great little corner away from the bustling pedestrians. The waitress was friendly and attentive. Ordered a soy latte but received an iced soy latte. Didn’t mind it as the coffee was light and made well. Hit the spot for a nice and quiet afternoon. The panacotta was nice but wasn’t as light as expected probably because it’s around 3pm. The flavour was good but the experience would have been far better if it was the morning…. After looking at the photos, I realised that it would have been perfect if the cup was wiped after filling it with panacotta.
