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.

We visited this place for dinner during the ANZAC weekend. Between the group, we had 3 vegetarian items and one non-vegetarian item. The place was extremely busy. The pizza-making duo didn’t stop for a single minute during the time we were there; but they did...dish out authentic fresh pizzas. The arancini balls were very nice too, as was the burrata. The service was prompt and courteous. We will happily go back to dine here.More

Had a beautiful birthday dinner. The food was amazing as was the service. You have to try the Gnocchi! A beautiful touch was the owner came over after we’d finished and thanked us for dining and gave a little story on the restaurant. We’ll definitely...be back. Thank you for having us!More

Magnificent is not anywhere near good enough for the food at Trattoria in Byron Bay. Great friendly service, meals in good time and a surrounding that could see you seated in Puglia.

I was incredibly disappointed with the tasteless crab spaghetti I ordered at your restaurant on Sunday. I felt like I was eating nothing more than salty oil soup that fell apart on my plate. I have never been so disappointed with a pasta in my...life! The supposed homemade spaghetti was inexcusably cut in half, not full pasta. The sauce looked like an oily soup with no taste at all and there were no signs of crabmeat at all. It looked like something out of a free soup kitchen, and definitely not what I expected from an Italian place like this. I couldn’t eat even one spoon of it, and had to send it back. Never thought I would eat “soup noodles” at an Italian restaurant. So disappointed and as an half Italian, I feel offended! The most unfortunate thing is that they charged me $36 for the meal I didn’t even eat! Even though I explained that it was “inedible” and only tried one bite of it, I was still charged for it. This is certainly not how you treat your paying customers.More

What a fantastic meal, atmosphere and value for money, one of the best Italian meals we have experienced around the world. The Pizza's made by chef Lorenzo were just amazing, the best pizzas we have ever eaten, soft, light,fluffy but so tasty. He did this...whilst entraining our children on how to make the perfect pizza and asking the all about their trip through Australia. The service was fantastic, and the value for money out of this world. We would come back to Byron Bay just for this experience again.More

Our meal was very nice, we started with the Beef Carpaccio and Calamari, followed by the crispy skin Kingfish and a Pizza. Service was great, especially the bar service. Dessert topped off a very nice evening out.

Food was excellent! Service was amazing. I highly recommend the carpaccio to start. The most amazing pasta has to be the Ragu but don’t let that stop your ordering the crab, it’s also delicious. Pizza is authentic and utterly delicious

It's a real sheep in wolves clothing. Nothing to look at during the day when its shut and as soon as night time appears this place comes alive. Great service, great atmosphere and certainly great food. We were a party of four, huge big table...with plenty of space around us, very pleasant young Dutch waitress who was just so helpful, great( albeit small ) menu, which is terrific as it means freshness, great wines and super delicious food. Had a great night, thank you and see you next year. Bravo !More

My son requested Italian food so I did some research and booked this place. The restaurant was v. Busy even though it was Monday night. It had a great atmosphere, quick and friendly service and good food. My daughter had the venison Rague pasta and...my son and I chose pizzas. All the portions were huge. The pizzas were enormous. Basically the same as a family-sized one from our local pizzeria back home. I’d recommend one pizza is probably enough for two people. All in all a great experience. Highly recommended.More

Quite unimpressed with the food. We order polenta gnocchi which was not very good. Also the crab spaghetti was kind of lifeless didn’t have much taste too it. Tasted like not fresh ingredients. They kids ordered bolognaise which was also tasteless. And no we don’t...have covid.More

The pasta was hand made and the Venison Ragu was as good as it gets. The staff were very pleasant and attentive. The pricing was reasonable for the quality of food and wine.

Good morning Alan. The front dining area is, but unfortunately the toilets aren't. There are two steps to get there. The restaurant is in a old building.
