Bivacco

Went to celebrate friends graduation at Bivaccio for dinner. As we had 20 people we had the set menu for $110pp. The table wasn't ready at 8 pm, so we went to the bar for a drink but was ready in about 5 minutes. Unfortunately, there wasn't space for our number of people, so seating was three tables and the host ended up moving around tables throughout the night to make sure she spent time with everyone. The food started coming out just past 8:30 and from that point came out well timed, wrapping up with dessert by 10pm. All the dishes were delicious as well as the cocktails. I ordered the seasonal Fejoia and Lemoncello, and the Fejoia Fizz and then their Bermout Bliss. As I didn't have any dietary requirements I found it all enjoyable and was perfectly satisfied by the end of the meal, however the guest I was next to could only eat Halal and mentioned she may need to eat something else when she got home. The atmosphere is great at the restaurant with several views of the water. Bathrooms are immaculate, clean and comfortable. The wait staff could have been a little more attentive though as I ran out of water halfway through and never got another refill. They only seemed to come around when they had dishes to set out. This is not my first time at Bivacco but overall I would recommend this restaurant and will most likely be back.

#Italian restaurant# Perfect location in the harbour area. Beef carpaccio is really good，fresh meat with truffle sauce. Mushroom pizza is portion and not too bad，but I think beef tongues is a bit salty. Hot wine is a good choice in winter.

Celebrating my 60th birthday at Bivacco was very special! We had an “intimate” family lunch with 20 of my nearest and dearest and it was wonderful! Everything about Saturday was superb - from the pre planning that my partner Ron did with the events team, to the setting on the veranda looking out on the Viaduct, the stunning 5 course set menu (that everyone raved about!) and the absolutely exceptional service by the whole team. Every request was taken care of including special food needs, through to the extension of time. Thank you to everyone in the Bivacco team - it was a memorable and magnificent occasion! Sina

First time eating at Bivacco we had the Sunday feast buffet and it sure was a feast. You literally feel like your having a Sunday roast at home but with elevation of atmosphere and service. The food delicious , fav was the Brussel sprouts , the pork , the seafood , muscles prawns , chatecurie board man just all of it was mouth yummy. The service by our waiters just so friendly warm and kind. We went at 2pm probably would recommend doing an earlier session . But anytime is great really. Desserts are small but perfect to end the feed with light and simple. Highly recommend. Eat everything and you'll get your moneys worth I guarantee.

We had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant last Saturday! The food was absolutely delicious - especially the T-Bone steak, which was cooked to prefection and full of flavour. Every dish we tried was well-prepared and beautifully presented. The service was excellent! The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The ambiance was lovely too! Relaxed, cozy, and perfect for a weekend dinner out. Thank you for a wonderful evening. We’ll definitely be back and will be happily recommend your restaurant to friends and family! 🥳

The food was nice, we had a table outside which also had a heater 😍 I love that you can sign up to be a member and get discounts on food and drinks also credit to use in the restaurant. The feijoa and gin cocktail was so good I loved it 😍😍 also their vegetarian pizzas, the mushroom pizza I adore.

Awesome food, from appetisers to desserts. Must try their lamb and pasta with clams. Their beef tartare taste so great that I want to go back the next day. Love the vibe and great view of the bay, an enjoyable experience with my close friends!

Food was so good here, however for some things the portion size was a bit small. For the pizzas, the portion size is great, but some of the pastas a bit small. The staff here were also very fast and efficient, however they did not tell us sparkling water would have to be payed for, as they walked up to us and just started pouring it for us. The interior of the place is really nice, with such a beautiful view of viaduct harbour outside. I would strongly recommend coming here during sunset, and absolutely recommending to book a table before you come like we did to make sure you get a spot! Also to be noted there is also a seperate menu for the restaurant and bar.
