This restaurant is a bit of a gym in the area, wonderful views, and lots of options for ambience. We sat inside, it was bustling and friendly, efficient, service and very hearty meals. Their house wines also impressed.

Hi Joanna, thank-you for visiting our estate and sharing this lovely feedback. It really means the world to us that you enjoyed your visit. We appreciate the support.
Organized a business dinner in their function room. Stunning venue, and just a close hop from town. Lovely ambience. The service was excellent and the food sumptuous and delicious. Just like dining in Italy. The cocktails made from grappa from their distillery was delicious. Will...be back to try their other dishes...More
Thank-you so much for this fantastic feedback. We couldn't be happier that you enjoyed the experience.
Didn’t welcome us even though booked weeks prior for our international guests. The door “boy” couldn’t find our booking until we showed our email. Apparently related to owners ?More
Hi Robert, we apologies you felt unwelcome, that is not our intention as our customers are very important to us. The occurrence sounds quite out of the ordinary, our "wait staff" are trained to be welcoming and pleasant, none of which are related to the...More
An excellent restaurant in the magnificent countryside surrounded by paddocks, olive trees and grape vines. Even on a cold, wet day the expansive venue was light, warm and inviting. The food was excellent as was the service from Katlyn and Laura. Warm fresh bread with...Olive Oil was served as a Starter. We chose Quail and Octopus for Entree (the Quail was wrapped in prosciutto and separated while the Octopus was large and succulent). Main courses of Lamb Shanks and Barramundi were equal to many of the good city dining establishments. 2 different local beers on tap are available, a mid strength and a full strength, both of which were very good. The local wine on offer was an excellent lighter style Shiraz which complemented our food, nicely. A reasonably extensive wine list offers alternatives. A Cheese Plate to finish comprised 2 different varieties which were complemented by fruit and crispy bread. Be sure to book to avoid disappointment! This is a winner.More
Thank-you for sharing this feedback. It's fantastic you enjoyed your visit to the estate.
Like stepping out of Warrandyte into Tuscany, stunning views with menu and service to match. Looking forward to the next visit
Such awesome feedback, thank-you! This is exactly what we set out to achieve and it means so much to us that you got to experience it.
Lovely spot at the bottom of the lane overlooking some lovely olive gardens. Home made pasta dish - scialatielli was rustic and delightfully tasty, generous portion of potatoes and lovely fresh rocket salad all tasted great, the barramundi left us full though sauce was slightly...salty. Will definitely return on a nice summers day and try their pizza.More

An amazing experience in suburban Melbourne. This is not a cheap restaurant by any means but the food, drink and service are second to none. World class in every way. Start in the bar with a glass of their Brut followed by a bottle of...their Sauvignon Blanc with dinner. Highly recommend the Quail and Octopus entrees and the Barramundi main. The home baked bread with olive oil is an added touch. A must on a special occasion.More

We are so happy to continue to enjoy our offering! Your support means the world to us. Thank-you.
We recently booked a function at Olivigna and all my guests were blown away. The staff were fantastic and accommodated all dietary requirements, the venue was stunning and the food delicious. Highly recommend a visit!
We absolutely loved being apart of your special event! It is amazing to hear you and your guests enjoyed our food, service and grounds. Thank-you.
My partner and l went today for a nice casual lunch. We ordered the anti pesto plate for two $42. What came out was some pathetic excuse for an anti pesto we have ever been served up. What we once raved about this place now...has over the last two outings totally destroyed any thought of ever comibg out again. There was another couple we got chatting with next to us who agreed that what we got for the money was off the ricther scale. Their comment that it didn't even present nicely. Being a chef for 31 years and when you have access to such beautiful foods l find it nothing but lack of unskilled, no love, and extremely poor for any decent chef to produce that crap. Lost us for good!More
Absolutely amazing place. We went there last weekend with our family and cannot recommend it enough! The place felt like you were in Italy and the service was great. All of us enjoyed our food and there wasn’t one issue! Would definitely come back and...recommend this place to everyone!!More
Thank-you so much for sharing this fantastic feedback! We appreciate the support.
If you like Tuscany this is the place to go everything was fantastic .. food service ambience and staff
Thank-you so much for sharing this lovely review! We set out to create a 'great Italian escape' in Warrandyte VIC, so this feedback means the world to us.
Loved the food beyond words, delightful setting - would also make a great event / wedding destination
Thank-you so much.
We had visited Olivigna several years ago for dinner with our family and loved it. We were lucky to be given a $300 gift voucher for Olivigna recently, so some months ago my husband and I went for dinner, and had the sharing plate. We...were disappointed to find it was a set menu and we wouldn't have ordered some of the food on the menu if we had a choice. We visited again for lunch last week in a group of 6 (and only to use the remainder of our voucher) and it was again very disappointing. Very over priced, with disappointing portions. My husband and I both chose pork belly for $38. It was about 3" square in size with a small spoonful of some rhubarb jus. No sides as these were extra. We ordered semi freddo for dessert and it was so tiny for $16, that when it was brought out we thought it was a mistake as it just looked like a spoonful of sorbet. The waitress didn't know either as she had to check with the kitchen, and came back to confirm this pitiful dessert was in fact our $16 semifreddo. (FYI The tiramisu looked a much better size). Service was on the slow side. More than one of our group tried to find the lunch a la carte menu on their website but it seems to be missing or very hard to find. I wonder why?? When you book online it asks if it's a special occasion. Ours was an anniversary, but no fuss or congratulations was forthcoming. We won't be back.More
We have been going to this restaurant for years. We have had a pasta cooking class here as well. What a absolute disaster last night was. Gnocchi was disgusting, seafood pasta was awful. We have had several times here where things weren’t up to scratch...but this will be our last visit.More
