Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I was a little sceptical when friends booked this as I thought they went out of business. Turns out on a Saturday night they are very much in business! The large space they now occupy was packed with happy diners.
Our group enjoyed plump fresh Tasmanian oysters, half a lobster (value at $49 for the whole or $29 for the half), lovely scallops cooked perfectly (not sure about the rhubarb chutney though), seafood linguini (large serves and full of quality seafood) and a steak. It was all very good and generous serves across the board.
Wine selection was good but a little pricy for some labels. Friendly staff and service was good but one of our group knows people there so you'd expect that. Others seemed to be very happy too so the service is clearly good.
Not cheap by any means but a good night out. The restaurant is a little dated and stark so could do with a facelift to justify the prices. Overall we enjoyed our night very much.

First visit to the new West Perth site having frequented the old brewery site on a number of occasions
The view is gone but the food is still outstanding. Without doubt the best meal we have enjoyed in Perth in the last 12 months
Carpaccio and mushroom Risotto to die for. The pink snapper and seafood linguine were also amazing
The prices are high but you don’t get food of this quality very often in Perth (unfortunately)
The waitress who served us (Brazilian lady ... sorry I forgot your name ) was outstanding. Knew the menu well, was very attentive and personable
Thank you Zafferanos we will be back again soon

Very disappointing and definitely not in the fine dining bracket. A lot of staff who didn't seem to know what they were doing (not their fault/training required) and the food was pretty ordinary. You don't expect to pay fine dining prices for meals that you could sadly cook better at home. Desserts appeared and tasted like they were buy ins, not made in house.

Pros
Venue is outstanding, no doubt about it. The views of the river and city skyline are outstanding.
Good wine list.
Good selection of seafood on the menu and generally attentive staff.
The venue was reasonably busy for a Saturday, about two thirds full.
Con
Wow. Prices are mining boom prices. Some main courses are priced at $60-70. For a piece of fresh fish? Beyond belief. $25 for a dessert? With cocktails, entrees, wine, main course and a single dessert, we averaged about $160 per person. This is the most expensive meal I’ve had in Perth.
Our waitress misunderstood the main course one of us ordered. So while they took back the incorrect order, the rest of the food sat on our table while we waited for the correct main course to be delivered. Could have been avoided by repeating the order back to us when it was ordered.
Verdict: some dishes were outstanding, like the seafood chowder, the main courses were just ok. The order mixup was a let down. The dessert passable, but that’s our opinion. I didn’t think the view, venue and service justifies the price and don’t think we will visit again.

We dined at Zafferano’s last Saturday evening. It’s a very elegant restaurant, classy and chic. The maitre’d is welcoming and very professional. The chef attended our table to greet us and welcome us back and the staff are attentive but unobtrusive. Service was slick although the restaurant was busy. The food was excellent. My husband had the seafood chowder to start which he thoroughly enjoyed and I ordered the scallops which were beautiful. We both ordered the duckling which was cooked well and beautifully presented. We shared a bottle of good red and a dark chocolate with honeycomb dessert, delicious! We love this restaurant and it’s always a pleasure to dine here. It’s a great place for a special occasion or just couples wanting great food, a nice atmosphere and an excellent overall dining experience. We will return again....and again....

We were thrilled with the service and the food that we had last night. It was my husbands birthday and we could not have been treated better. Our meals were absolutely mouth watering- My husband had a couple of the the lime salsa oysters and a bloody Mary shooter with the oyster for entree and I had the risotto- fantastic flavours - The crayfish thermidor that I had for my main was delicious and my husband had the snapper and asparagus he raved about it. Our desserts were wonderful and he was touched that they had given him a plate with a happy birthday message. We couldn't praise this restaurant enough.

Fabulous.
This would have to be right up the top of Perth restaurants.
Went there for lunch last Friday. All the food was above excellent. Beautifully cooked. Seafood is the hardest to cook . We all had the scampi which normally at a restaurant has rested in the deep freeze for a month or 2 before seeing the light of day but this was different , moist and very tasty, brilliant.
The main course was coral trout, again beautifully cooked with just a touch of excellent pasta. Then followed by a 10 out of 10 sticky date pudding.
We all agreed that it was the best meal we had had this year.

The food was very much over priced. The young girl that took care of us was lovely. Entree/bread was nice, although, we were told there was maybe a shortage of the oysters. Although we tried to book for the earlier sitting we were told they were fully booked, but upon arrival, the restaurant was almost empty. The mains were ordered, my meal, I asked for no spices or chilli. It was awful, and also hot. I sent it back to the kitchen. The girl apologised but nothing else was said by anyone. We had to ask for it to be removed from the bill. The desert was also nothing to write home about either. Not a place I would ever recommend.

Our second time here with family and was a top class experience in food and service.
The staff were so attentive and friendly.
Our food was next level in regard to flavour, portion size and timing.
My fillet of beef was one of the best I have had for some time.
The seafood pastas were tasty and full of flavour.
We all ordered a dessert and they were again amazing with flavours and portion size.
If you want an intimate fine dining experience you must try here.
Cannot wait to return.

Excellent food, services and decor.
The skilled chefs and personable wait staff make this a really nice place for a treat or just every day.
After many years at the old Swan Brewery, Outram Street may now be ‘the’ place.
Twice recently we have tried their lunch special, terrific. Highly recommended.

Firstly, Zafferano is now situated at 49 Outram Street, West Perth. It has taken over the space of a previous restaurant and as in the previous case the dining area and ambiance is first rate. Zafferano has an easy to follow menu which highlights some excellent dishes displaying great variety of flavours. The food was excellent; the chorizo risotto and duck were both delicious. I had tastes of a number of other dishes which were equally as good. The wine list has a good range of familiar wines complemented by plenty of interesting offerings from around the World. In a restaurant of this class a little more attention to improving the wine knowledge of the staff would benefit. On the main the staff were very attentive and most pleasant.
We had a most enjoyable fine dining experience.

Zafferano is an excellent restaurant on a number of levels. It exudes a quality atmosphere with space between the tables and a pleasing decor. It is not stuffy. The staff are helpful and friendly. The food menu is imaginative and the dishes we had were delicious.
This is an international class restaurant.

What can I say? Wow! Awesome food and impeccable service. We went for our Anniversary and was very impressed with everything. We started with Turkish Bread, oysters and entree scampi. Then for mains we had the sirloin with a side of their yummy potatoes and mains scampi. We shared the Brûlée for dessert. The scampi was to die for, it just melted in the mouth. We will definitely be back.

Absolutely faultless. The food and the service.
We had the carpaccio and chowder for entrees and the duck and beef fillet for mains and they were all perfect.
Flavours were amazing and good size portions.
Worth every cent and will be back.

We went out for lunch today after winning a voucher.OMG! Were we surprised. The restaurant gave us the most delicious lunch we have had for a long time!!
Service was excellent, food was stunning,and quietly quaffing on a Will's Domain sparkling Ro'se just set the mood for lunch.Could not fault the food it was Splendid!! Not being a dessert person I capitulated and succumbed to a Rose water Panna Cotta...It was Fabulous!!II am marking this restaurant as one of my FAVOURITE spots!! Definitely worth a re visit with family or friends..Thank you for a lunch to remember.
