We booked for 6.45pm and were the first table there. Atmosphere was pleasant although the chairs weren't super comfortable and my husband got a sore neck as there were things on the wall behind our heads that he was trying to avoid hitting his head on.The waiter was a bit abrupt...seemed to almost look down his nose at us. When I was eating my mussels one by one (the way I like to eat them), he told me that it wasn't the correct way and that I should empty all the shells and put the mussels into the broth, then use one hand to spoon the mussels and the other to dip the bread. Makes sense but that's not how I like to do it! Call me ignorant but I think I should be allowed to eat the way I wan...
We had been here many years ago decided to come back and try. We didn't have a booking and were lucky enough there were plenty of spare tables. Drinks we had the Rochford Chardonnay. No entrees, mains were Veal Scallopini for me and the...lamb in pastry for my husband. The veal was tender and cam with some potato slices, asparagus a beautiful creamy mushroom sauce. The lamb was very tender and came with a red wine jus. Sides we ordered Broccoli Roasted Potatoes. Broccoli was steamed with slithered almonds the potatoes were with salt garlic they were very yummy. We had the Crème Brulee, one each. It came with raspberries on the side. The brulee was creamy light. I could not fault our meal or...
After we were in estivo 4 years ago, we returned. but there were few tables. I was suspicious. we had the special. the muddles were overboiled, shrunk and the sauce was very watery. not nice. the kalamari were crumbled, fritted and the mayo was very salty. no more crimped, only rocket. next came the net. the 12 hours boiled lamb had a very oily teig and the red victorious jus was more like salty gravure. the bark cakes were fat. the chocolate soufflé was more like flat chocolate sauce. no nice experience and now I know why it was only 3 tables occupied. Note, this place is now operated by various owners who use cooks that cannot cook.
expected good things from this restaurant, but was disappointed by service and eating. had the special tempura barramundi, which was a generous serving, but only greasy broken fish. mains had the Pork bell that was so dry that I wanted to chew it! hoping dessert. would turn our culinary experience around, but unfortunately the chocolate fond was burned and the taste went through the fondant. unfortunately an unpleasant and expensive culinary experience.

My husband and I dined at estivo for our first year wedding anniversary and I am so impressed with the service, the food and the staff. A small restaurant, cosy, the tables are decently spaced apart and just has a very relaxing atmosphere. Thank you...More
So different from the refined restaurant we went to years ago. Food was average. Not impressed. Restaurant was freezing cold. Food was all served with same sauce.
First impressions were good, the interior and table settings promised a great meal, Menus presented was tight with an interesting vaguely Italian theme.

I want to love this place so muchThe location is good, the intimate size of the restaurant is perfect, and the menu is promising.
Unfortunately I've had both one of my best and worst dining experiences at EstivoThey have quality food and a good wine list.
