Alfredo Authentic Italian Restaurant

Lovely restaurant Delicious food Nice atmosphere Helpful staff Many Thanks

Good in all regards tasty food. Good location. Enjoyed the evening

Cannot find a better authentic Italian restaurant in Sydney CBD.

It was late at night, around 8:30 PM, so I understand the staff may have been quite tired. The waiters were trying their best to provide good service, and I appreciate their efforts. However, we didn’t feel welcome when we arrived—the man who greeted us (and later processed our payment at the counter) came across as unwelcoming. Overall, the food was good, but the wine was served warm and was of poor quality. Unfortunately, I didn’t feel comfortable enough to return, and I wouldn’t feel confident recommending the place to others.

Overall the food and the service were good ... I went in with really high expectations, and the food wasn't as robust and flavorful as I expected.

Food was great, however the service was not that engaging. On arrival they doubted that we actually had a booking which made us feel less welcomed. Did enjoy the pianist selections. I was a regular at Alfredo’s over 30 years ago with their opera nights and this time felt a little deflated after this experience.

No smile from the old male waiter from second we walked in, also rubbed his lower body on guests when there was ample room. He never said ‘ pardon’ or ‘excuse me’, just shoved the lower half of his body between 2 women. Disgusting. The menu is written incorrectly for a few dishes- ‘hazelnut cream’ is not whole hazelnuts tossed into cream. The food is just basic, there no effort or flair to it. And the pheasant was closer to pate. There were 2 chefs eating with us last night, and each were disappointed in the meals and the service from this terrible old waiter. After spending nearly $1000 for a special Anniversary dinner

Pheasant ravioli was unbelievable. Wish we have time to go back again. Highly recommend it

Great food, wonderful staff, authentic indeed! Take your friends too.

Food was great, atmosphere very good, wait staff were excellent, location is perfect.

Made reservations for 4 adults using their website with no problems. We were seated promptly and given menus to look at and ordered drinks. Service between courses was a little slow but it didn’t bother us at all as the ambiance was quite relaxing and staff very friendly. There was live piano music played while dining. The noise level was a little loud when restaurant was filled to capacity but did not interfere with out table conversations. Their signature eggplant dinner was excellent and their profiteroles dessert was outstanding. Portion sizes were large so my only complaint was that we were unable to box up our leftovers as we were staying in hotel and flying out the next morning. Definitely would recommend this family restaurant!

The food & service were very good! The pianist playing during the night was wonderful & added to the enjoyment of the evening. Highly recommend this restaurant & will definitely visit again.

Authentic beautiful food , fantastic service and great vibe. Only down side is it’s not very intimate as you are seated next to others as tables are touching each other

A delicious meal with a great atmosphere will go again

We came back after 3 years (we live in Melbourne) and it was as amazing as we remembered. Service was excellent, the food was excellent, the atmosphere is like being in a living room, cosy and relaxed, background music by a talented pianist. It was fabulous!! Thank you very much!

Excellent ambience, good food at reasonable price ,give it a try , Mike from UK

We dined on the specials of the day, Osso Bucco and spinich ravioli, after starting with the bruschetta. All of the food was delicious and the wait staff were extremely accommodating, adding an extra bruschetta for our local friend who had joined us, making a party of three. Very authentic italian tastes. Dessert menu looks great, but we'll have to return to test those out, as we had no room left.

The staff were very welcoming and the pasta was delicious. I had the ravioli…highly recommend this. A very authentic italian restaurant. Molto bene

Great food and service and extra special a pianist playing beautiful music

Great food. Will definitely dine here again when we are back in Sydney

Food was well prepared and excellent.Service also was excellent never needed of anything and not rushed

Great service and super food. Staff very helpful and courteous. Highly recommended.

Alfredo's is always amazing! Tonight especially with the wonderful pianist keeping us entertained all night. Thank you (as always) for a wonderful dining (and birthday) experience (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ⁠)⁠♡

The food was wonderful. The service was indifferent. The noise level was painful. I’m sure the pianist was good, but her playing to an inattentive audience made the conversation level over the top. Nearly 90 db

The scampi linguini was outstanding and loved the pianist playing in the background, created a beautiful atmosphere

Great food, atmosphere and staff. Highly recommended. Will be back.

Great service and very delicious food. The four of us loved our meals. The live piano music was also very special.

They realy know cooking a good italian food. The best.

Food is always superb and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

This was a Google find, as needed a dinning experience near opera house for NYE celebrations and was close to station to walk too. All 4 of us were very happy with food, service and ambience. Thank you we will ne back.

The environment is comfortable and the location is great 👍 food was delicious too!

A diamond in the rough in the alley next to the JW Marriott in downtown Sydney. 40 years by the family in this location. Superb authentic Italian food with great service. At the end of the evening, the cost was much less than other good proximate restaurants. We’re glad we found this restaurant!!

Have been going to Alfredo’s for 20 years always good service and food.

Love this restaurant. So many good food options. The staff are lovely, friendly and helpful. I have visited many times and will continue to do so. Highly recommend 🥂

Lovely restaurant but seating arrangements a bit weird this time

We've been coming to Alfredo's for years, great food and service. However the recently updated menu and with it the increase in prices was a bit of a shock. Plus $40 for a pasta dish is a bit much so will likely be looking elsewhere for our pre-theatre dinner in 2025.

It was a Monday lunchtime. So not busy. But great food and service.

Just outstanding food and service in a relaxed environment. Simply brilliant

loved it food was the best if lived in Sydney would go there at lot

We've been here twice now. It is a lovely place with nice food and very professional staff. It isn't cheap but worthwhile!

Excellent service and food. Will be returning. Meals were beautifully cooked and prepared.

Great place to get together with friends. Nice location, nice food.

Food, service, ambience, location and total dining experience absolutely amazing 🤩

Lovely atmosphere with a nice food and service. Love the piano

Food was amazing but if you want value for money and a big bowl of pasta this is not your place . However taste 10/10

Lucianno welcome us at the door.. he make us feel more than welcome… food is amazing… ambiance and service and the quality of food for me it’s a 5 stars… real authentic italian dish… forget the chicken parm…. here it’s serious… they cook with passion… molto grazie Lucco

Great food. There was live music. Beautiful piano made the night better.

Although we booked through you they did not have our booking but made room for us. Especially liked the pianist.

The food was delicious. Menu had a great variety of dishes.

The food was really tasty and nicely presented. Wine selection was of quality! Amazing atmosphere with live music by a talented pianist!!!
