Huge meals and great service! We over-ordered for two people but both the lamb wrap and nachos were delicious. Much needed after a big hike!
I chose to take the fam to Raffael's for Mothers Day (4 of us) for lunch. It was really busy and buzzing (cool background music) so it felt good to be there. We had the most amazing food and the service was faultless (big thank you to Monica for making mum's day with her fun & friendliness). We shared the delicious Prawn skewers (wish I had ordered more serves coz they were awesome), Bruschetta and Dips for starters and then had Seafood Combo- (Fantastic!), & Fish of the day, Mushroom Risotto and Steak for mains- just brilliant! It was super busy but they attended to us and made us feel welcome. Finished off with sharing some lemon meringue pie and sticky date cake between 4 of us as they were such large serves. Would recommend this place definitely. Will be back!

I was in werribee today with my wife for an appointment and we stop to Raffael's cafe for a late breakfast. My wife order poached eggs on toast, eggs cooked to perfection, I order it ham and easy cheese omelette big size and really nice. Amazing coffee and great service. Sorry no photo taken.
I was here on a Friday night at 7pm. The restaurant was full so it was a good thing we made an advanced booking. I had the seafood pan which was a large seafood platter. Highly recommended. The service was prompt and and friendly despite the restaurant being full the food came out in good time. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked. A big eater will be satisfied with the seafood pan but sharing might be a good idea if you normally eat smaller meals. I enjoyed the dinner and will definitely be back.
I love Rafaels! I always suggest this place when I'm in the area and the outside seating is just lovely and chill. They have pretty good food options but the cakes are on another level!
Sometimes service is a bit slow and quite an average menu but there's some special things in there πππ
This place is perfect for that Sunday, 'catch up with the girls' kinda brunch. It is conveniently located just near Werribee station and has a fantastic vibe. I had the best French toast that I accidentally finished just a little too quickly after wanting it all in my tummy as quickly as possible because it was just that delish. Great service and great food !
We had my niece and daughters bday meal here last night with 12 people for dinner. Wait staff were very attentive and although food was a bit slow it was worth the wait. Great selection and generous sizes. Lovely surrounds and atmosphere. We were able to bring our own bday cakes without a ridiculous 'cakeage' fee. Highly recommend this restaurant.
Oh the old wagyu beef burger. It seems very popular at the moment. The burger was good but I really can't tell the difference between your regular burger!
Fantastic food. Service was ok. Price was not bad. Love the setting in the restaurant. There was a bit of a negitive atmosphere but got over that with the food. Lol
This is probably one of the best places to go for desserts and coffee with friends or family or even both. Big big servings of cake. The lemon meringue is sublime π
Great food, fast service. Food is excellent, and the atmosphere in the outside dining area is quite inviting, I'll definitely return to this neat little restaurant, and I'm sure if your going to eat here it won't disappoint

Maz. Ate at this eatery on a Wednesday night, given the bleak weather and midweek , the place was buzzing. An impressive ambience, particularly the well positioned sofas in front of the fireplace, perfect for a glass of wine or a piece of cake, of which there are many. Tasty food , generous serves, at reasonable prices and very happy and attentive wait staff collectively made for a fabulous evening. When your kids are asking to return, you know you've hit a winner. Finding it hard to see reason as to why people couldn't be satisfied here but then again some people gain pleasure at just being miserable and constantly whinging and complaining about anything. Anyhow, will without doubt be returning. Loved it !!
Our experience tonight at Raffael's Cafe was nothing short of perfection! The wait staff were incredibly attentive and offered nothing but the best service and always with a smile. Food was so tasty and well seasoned, something which is usually hard to find! Ambience was great, place generated a really great vibe! Such an awesome array of choice on the menu too! As a picky coffee drinker, I had no issues with the coffee, actually thought standard was well above other joints nearby. Would drive hours for this place, I just wish it was closer to us! Will no doubts return!!!
10/10!!! GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE, WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!. Went out for a beautiful dinner on Tuesday night. The place was rather busy considering the night, but the service was impeccable! Staff very attentive, did not miss a detail! The food came, presented absolutely beautifully. I had the linguine, my partner had the parmigiana, both perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. Will definitely be returning. 10/10!
High Tea Yumminess. A bunch of us just had the most amazing scrumptious High Tea at Raffael's Thank you so much for the trouble you went to for us. The service was excellent and all for such a great price too! Thanks again :)
Nice Meal. Went for dinner, the starters of trip of dips, ample dip for the large amount of bread but sadly half the bread was burnt, couldn't eat it. Main of Paella was a huge serving, lovely tasting meal, ample calamari through it, a few prawns, mussels, scallops, really enjoyed the dish.
The Moroccan Eggs were killer, good selection to choose from and now they are doing breakfast until 3pm on weekends!
Ladies day out. Visited Rafs Sunday afternoon with some girlfriends to try out the high tea.
We absolutely loved it their home made pies and zucchini fritters were to die for, definitely enjoyed it.
The outside area was beautiful to sit and drink wine in the afternoon sun for hours.
Can't wait to do it again
Absolutely delicious, best arancini balls I have ever had, hubby loved his steak sandwich, everytime I come I am more and more impressed!
Birthday party dinner. As per usual Raffaels menu value for money, fresh, exceptional service. I will recommend having a dinner party or just a nice evening with your partner .. love this place ..
Mid week set menu. We visited Raffaels last night and took advantage of their mid week special . Great value for money $35 for a 3 course meal or $30 for two. We went for the three corse which came with a Complimentary glass of wine and coffee aswell. The roast pepper bruschetta for entree was a nice change from the traditional and for mains we had a Thai red curry, lamb shanks and a salt and pepper calamari all absolutely beautiful. Of course desert at Raffaels is always my favourite so naughty and tasty.
Lovely afternoon out on a public holiday, quite, calm and great service ( thank you Michael) .. A couple of cocktails and a shared Starters... Pleasant afternoon ... Thanks to all
Favourite place!. Attractive venue, lovely staff. Delicious food- My husband and I shared the tapas board, then for mains I had an eye fillet steak and he had the seafood pan. Would recommend and would go back!
Best eggs Benedict in town. Great service.
This cafe is conveniently located on a corner providing ample parking. When you walk into this place you feel a sense of warm, coziness and relaxing feel to the vibe. My partner and I ordered the Queen's Royale with smoked salmon, smashed avocado toastie with extra post eggs, potato wedges with sour cream and sweet chilli sauce and 2 hot chocolates. The Queen's Royal with smoked salmon was ok. The poached eggs were over cooked and there was too much extra virgin olive oil to my liking. The smashed avocado was good and the poached eggs were runny. hot chocolates were delicious and the potato wedges were cooked to perfection.
Overall a good experience with welcoming friendly staff. Just a note of reference if you have a good foods gift card you can also use it here as well.

Our waitress is amazing!!! Not only did she handle four customers with several dietary requirements (celiac, vegan, etc), but she also managed to cater to us with five dogs hanging around the table. She insisted that it was no problem, but having to walk outside 6+ times, I could imagine that it got frustrating. She bought us water, told us to take our time, let us wait for our friends to turn up, and cleared some of the table so that we had more space.
My friend, Emma, has celiac and the waitress informed us that the hollandaise has gluten in it. She offered to make fresh hollandaise for three of us as a result. It was delicious! (And we really appreciate the attention to detail.)
The food was so good! I was worried that I wouldn't be full from my Eggs Benedict (extra hollandaise, extra halloumi) but I was wrong!
EGGS BENEDICT - Really good! Bread was a little bit soft and the hollandaise was tart, but not in a bad way. It went down a treat.
HALLOUMI - Really squeaky and salty, it was great. Perfect halloumi!
EGGS ROYALE - The salmon was delicious. I snuck some while my friend was distracted. Emma was able to get gluten free toast with it. She really enjoyed it.
WARM ASIAN SALAD - My friend, Lizz, asked for a recommendation and the waitress picked this one for its stronger flavour. Lizz really enjoyed it, but she said she wishes the noodles were softer. I think they were crunchy for texture. Lizz also said that the tofu needed more maple syrup, but mostly cos it was really tasty and she wanted more.
Overall, this was a great experience! I'd never been here before but I would definitely consider going back. The coffee was good, the food was great, and the service was geuinely outstanding! (I left a $20 tip, they deserved it.)
Their food and coffee is very good, however they do get busy during show times.
We had a great time and the food was delicious! Will be back π
Fantastic, amazing, so so so good!
Best seafood I've ever had in Napoli sauce!
Food is always good and the cake range is great if you just want coffee and cake. Saw a very sweet act of kindness from the staff, two kids came in because it was to cold to wait outside for their parents, the waiter approached and instead of asking them to leave got them a bowl of chips for free even though he knew the kids had no money. Made my day to see it. Well done to the cafe.π
This place is surprisingly good!
Come here for the crunchie or caramel cake. Simply divine.
Service is swift and friendly.
Didn't have any food but saw that the portions were large.
Decent wine list and not overly expensive (bin 128 at $60).
They also have a fire so you can relax on the nice sofa and stay toasty warm.
