Got two pasta dishes. One tomato based, one olive oil tossed pasta. Both dishes were consistent. Undercooked and tasteless. No matter how much I added cheese and salt, it couldn't help salvage the taste. So I just left my dish aside. The waitress came over and asked how was everything and I told her how the pasta did not have any taste at all.
With no hesitation at all, she took the dish away and said she would get a new one made immediately. When the new dish came, it was like chalk and cheese. Pasta was Al dente and the sauce was flavourful.
Kudos to such polite and proactive staff! Second round of pasta was lovely. Would definitely come again the next time. Hoping the first experience was a once off incident!
Best La porchetta in Vic state. I ordered risotto and gnocchi for lunch and it tasted so nice
Highly recommend this restaurant!
I would definitely go again

Visited on Wednesday dinner, so it wasn’t busy. Clean restaurant. The Staff were polite and attentive. Loved eggplant chips. Fried calamari was also good. The side of seasonal vegetables was so fresh and crunchy to my liking. My husband said pizza was ok, could improve with the pizza base. I didn’t expect franchise restaurant to serve such high quality food. I find the prices were cheap with the quality and the big serve. Thank you and see you soon.
Great place to dine with family.... they have amazing pasta and pizza here.. we ordered vegetarian pizza , pasta and chicken parmigiana... highly recommend for Italian lovers
Loved it!Â
Staff super friendly and very attentive. The food was fresh and it was ready very fast. Pizzas are amazing here.
I'll definitely go back!
I went to La Porchetta Rowville to have dinner and it was a great experience, excellent service. Staff friendly and attentive
Lovely pizza!!!
Definitely I’ll come back.
Very nice atmosphere, very attentive staff always available to help. The food is great, super tasty.
I advise, I will go back with my group of friends.
I think La porchetta gets an overly negative review. This one had really nice service with wait staff who I realy felt cared about their customers and the carbonara I had which is an easybto do staple was nice and had all the flavour it should as well as being a large portion size. My partner had the gnocci and loved it. We got lemon mirangue cake for dessert and both thought it was nice. If you want a night out where you don't need to get dressed up or travel far I'd definitely say this would be your place to go if you live around melbourne
I wasn't expecting much from our visit here but I was pleasantly surprised. The service was excellent, particularly from Al who couldn't have been more friendlier or welcoming. My child spilt his drink and they cleaned it up straight away and even gave him a new one free of charge.
Good kids menu was a bonus. Meals were huge (including the kids ones) but they do ask if you'd like a doggy bag to take home the leftovers. Large range of desserts.
Great place to take the family with a menu that is sure to keep everyone happy. We will definitely visit again.
Some friends and I had lunch here yesterday. I was hesitant after reading the reviews.
The meals were bigger than I expected for the price and they were very nice with a lot of flavour. The staff seemed to be run off their feet but the service didn't lack and they stayed smiling the entire time.
We had a lot to eat and drink and still scraped in under $100! It was one of the better la Porcetta's that I have been to. We chose here as the half way point between the group of us, in future I will travel the extra distance to come to this one.
They had a good selection of meals and drinks and were helpful answering questions regarding their dishes.
The girl said they didn't do bread rolls here but I am glad they didn't as I could barely eat all my meal due to its size & they were helpful in packing up my left overs so I didn't have to cook dinner either! The ambience was also nice.
For a la Porcetta I will give it 5 stars.
Delicious meal and really lovely staff. Each time we’ve been to this restaurant the staff have always provided excellent customer service. Particular shoutout to our waitress Jacinta, whose name I overheard, and the hostess, who were nothing but friendly and accommodating. We’ll continue to visit this restaurant as long as our experiences remain this pleasant :)
Dinner at La Porchetta Rowville is a very relaxed occasion. The place is not very crowded so you get to social distance pretty easily. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We were given a middle table and we wished to swap to a booth which the staff were very helpful to help us move. Food is so so depending on what you ordered. The steak is good and for the price, is a big serving. The seafood pasta is also good. For three of us, we spent about $84 with three mains and a coffee.
In conclusion, I would recommend this place for steak, spaghetti and the great service. Enjoy.
We have a large Family and are spread out in the East to Sth East. So your location is perfect for us.
The Two time we have made bookings including This Mothers Day’22

Very clean venue with nice food. Pizza is a little on the small size when it's called a large. I'm not a big eater but I was still hungry. The service made up for the average pizza size.
A MASSIVE thank you to Katie and the team for making our twin boys christening celebration a day to remember! Nothing was a problem, a fantastic experience from start to finish!! Thank you again and see u for the next big event.
