The service was overly attentive, we had 3 different people popping in every few minutes requesting drinks orders, bread orders etc.
Our party ordered 2 fillet steaks 1 was drowning in sauce, the other had almost none. The meat was cooked well. The chicken was also ok, but I had the Atlantic salmon according to the menu grilled medium rare. What arrived was a dry, thoroughly over cooked tail portion with soggy skin.
For a restaurant specialising in seafood it was a disappointment. I cook better at home.
The cheese platter was ok, with a selection of cheeses, crackers, muscatels, and quince

My wife and I have passed here regularly while driving past King's Park and had always promised each other we'd stop in sometime. We finally stopped in for our anniversary on May 4th for a sunset dinner.
The food, service and company were amazing! The dry-aged steak, gnocchi, drinks, desserts and even starting bread were all beautifully prepared. We were even surprised with a chocolate written Happy Anniversary platter with sparklers.
Thank you all for the amazing service and food. It helped make our night a memorable one.

We haven't eaten here in ages (at least 3 years) and our recent visit to this fine restaurant was a very welcomed experience.
We had a lovely and very attentive waitress for whom nothing was too much trouble. She was friendly, polite and knew how to have a bit of fun but was never intrusive.
The wine was lovely, the beer cold and a good choice of different types and the coffee at the end of the night lovely.
The meals were incredible. Considering this is not that expensive to the Old Swan Brewery next door, the difference is incomparable. I had the sirloin and it was perfect, my friends

The food is really nice here. We started with parmesan and garlic bread, seafood chowder that had actual fresh Prawns mussels fish and scallop. So so good. Then seafood spaghetini,for mains catch of the day was dhufish wings fried with a fennel salad and the same for my crispy skinned barramundi, sides were truffle potato mash, pear and pecan rocket salad. Everything was really nice carefully prepared, cook and served. All up with two beers and a cocktail was a little over $200 and that's with a discount from the entertainment app. The food is really nice but a bit pricey. Its not an every

We had a lovely lunch- the setting along the Swan River is one of the best and is visible from most of the restaurant. The menu is interesting and the food is excellent- great flavor - quality over quantity- don't expect your plate to be filled with fried chips
The service is friendly and efficient without being obtrusive or pompous.
Without any asking they organized a birthday plate for my mother-in-law's birthday which really made a nice end to the day. Highly recommend - a great place for the special occasion or overseas guest-we will definitely visit again

Came here for a date night early this year.
Food was okay. We had the seafood plate and lamb & vegetables with a nice bottle of red. All food was cooked nicely but there just wasn't very much of it to warrant the exuberant prices. Wine was lovely but for $45 a bottle so it should have been.
Service was okay, we were seated in a bit of an awkward spot near the bathroom with a high chair at our table for some odd reason. The waiter did seem a bit condescending to us when we asked what a few of the dishes were.
We both came to the realization that we are not a fine dining couple & would

Let me be clear, the wait staff here are very friendly. The food is above average. The service from management s completely awful.
I was here for a wedding and not only were accused of turning the speakers around and up resulting in a noise complant from residents at 930pm, but we were also refused to pour our own bottles.
That would have been fine had it not been for the attitude given when i asked the question. Instead of a polite no when i asked for a bottle of comlementary sparkling, i was sarcasticly given the answer of 'I can give it to you if you want to pay the $75,000 fine.&apos

My husband and I eloped and went here for dinner afterward. So happy with our choice, and I'm pretty sure it's not because we were loved up.
Right from ringing up to make our reservation, through to sorting out the bill at the end of the night, the service was friendly and impeccably good. We needed to have a late booking on account of our ceremony, and an 8.30pm was not a problem, nor did we feel rushed at all.
The food was lovely, I had oysters for entree. I've had oysters at a few other high end restaurants over the Christmas break and was a little wary as they have been small

Zafferano is fancy.....Super fancy. It's the place you go to for a special occasion.
Last time I was here I was treated to amazing seafood, wine, stunning view and an engagement ring.
Zafferano is a sometimes place, because of the price, but the service and food make it all worth while.
...and gents, ladies, if your boyfriend books a table for no reason at all you might be in for a surprise proposal too!!

You can't let summer pass by without dining out by the sea at least once, and I highly suggest you make that dining experience at Zafferano on Perth's Swan riverbank. Summer, sea and seafood go excellently together, and Zafferano rightly prides itself as one of Perth's finest providers of fresh fish dishes and crustacean.
A good 90% of this restaurant's menu is seafood, and the place really has cornered a niche market of patrons desiring a beautiful view, but never forgetting the food is of the utmost importance.
It takes some time to ponder the menu here. Firstly because
