Excellent Italian food and wonderful service, ideal for pre theatre lunch or dinner, fabulous water views, a thoroughly delightful experience, highly recommended, at any time.
Lovely Pier 8 water view, right by the water, great staff and service, lovely pizza, salads & rosé. We go there every month for lunch.
Great food, great wine, wonderful atmosphere, efficient and positive staff and fantastic views. Couldn't ask for better. Delizoso e auteentico; per secure ritiorniamo. Grazie mille!
By far the best italian restaurant I have been to! The staff were delightful and the food came out almost instantly. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend to anyone
Didn’t like the new seafood pasta dish, too bland, had to ask for tomato passata to be added. Restaurant noisy and crowded, although good service
Venuto is a lovely venue with fab food and ambiance and especially convenient for a pre show meal. The service was very friendly and prompt.
Friendly service, delicious food and fine wines. Walsh Bay is a special location and we enjoyed a memorable family celebration. Thanks to the team at Ventuno.
Great view, efficient and friendly service, good simple Italian food. I had the wood oven pizza which was outstanding. Good wine list with wide range of Italian wines.
Great lunch food was just right for a lunch or even a dinner it is a great venue with good service great food and excellent staff.
fabulous food, great service and lovely view. Only thing is that it's quite noisy because of the high ceiling, making it hard to hear conversation.
The service from all staff was just excellent - we were made to feel very welcome and special. Three of us varied the menu and the kitchen was happy to accommodate our requests. The fillet steak special was just excellent - perfectly cooked and delicious. Two opted for the tiramisu dessert and were very happy with their choice. The coffee could have been a bit stronger, but not enough to cause concern. We will definitely dine here again.
We always enjoy dinning at Ventuno pre theatre shows.. The staff are friendly and helpful and the menu full of good Italian dishes for sharing
Fabulous atmospheric setting outside at night; professional and attentive staff; delicious food and nice range of affordable Italian wines. Great option for a work function thouroughly enjoyed. Thanks Giuseppe and Ventuno team!
One of the best risottos I have ever eaten. Service great, we arrived at 6.15, but felt we had all the time in the world even though we had to be in our seats at the theatre at 7.30
Great food, fabulous service and very nice setting, The tables are spacious enough to fit the shared food, far enough apart you dont hear the next tables conversation Thoroughly recommend
Our second visit to enjoy delicious pizza and salad in a lovely, relaxed restaurant in a great location with friendly, helpful staff. Will go back ..... 😊
Lovely food and friendly service Good Sunday afternoon ambience Mixed entree with meatballs always really tasty . Good Italian wine selection Good venue for a family lunch
As always, fabulous food, fast service for pre-theatre dinner. Only minor criticism was getting the waiters attention to place our order or order another drink.
Delicious food, good service and lovely view. Would return here
Great Italian vibe, great food, great view. We sat outside on the first cool autumn night in April under the heaters and loved it. Theatregoers we’re gone so it was a peaceful meal!
Great food, great view and great service. It was terrific to find an efficient restaurant that was aware of theatre goers. I'll definitely be back. Thanks!
Very prompt and friendly service - perfect for a before theatre meal. The pizza crust was thin and crisp and the toppings oozed with flavour.
location was perfect. Starters per perfect. Service was perfect. The steak was terrible, over cooked even when asked for medium. Please improve your steaks urgently.
Dinner after a play at Roslyn Packer theatre - could only have one course and dessert which were both outstanding. Think this place could alter their hours to cater for post theatre dinners especially as our show finished at 8.45 Great location and service was good
Great food and beautiful setting Very popular. Make sure that you book.Excellent for pre theatre meal as it is very close to the Sydney Theatre Company.
With a lovely alfresco setting and excellent food, what more could you want? One of my favourites at restaurants - as well as at home - is spaghetti with some sort of seafood. Their spaghetti with seafood had an amazing flavour, which I am going to try to emulate at home tonight! A great restaurant overall.
Go there often for a pre theatre dinner, snack or drink. Friendly staff and wide selection of wines and food. Nice outlook over the water.
Good pre theatre dinner venue. Would recommend although the tables for bigger groups are too wide. It would be good to have some specials. That’s it.
Lovely Italian restaurant with a gorgeous water view of Miller’s Point/Walsh Bay. Relaxing as it’s away from the CBD’s hustle & bustle. Food and service was excellent. Lovely staff and lovely food. Highly recommend.
We were going to be late so phoned to let Ventuno know. They were extremely helpful and made sure that when we did arrive we were served promptly so had time to enjoy our meal before going to the theatre. The food is delicious!!
Great food, quick and professional service. Our favourite pre-theatre dining spot. Galosa pizza is a favourite. Makes a good lunch or dinner spot with friends.
nice restaurant, great location, food was lovely and with GF options
Great venue, good food, excellent friendly service will return. The menu allows for share plates and a tapas style or individual choices and servings. We visited for a pre theatre dinner and it was great.
Lovely location and excellent staff. This time tried quite different things on the menu. We shared antipasti and a pizza. All very scrumptious. Next time we do the whole antipasti thing. Saw others with those plates and got food envy.
My "medium rare" steak was quite thin, small and cooked through. Told the waiter that it wasnt medium rare and he said that it was and walked off. It also came with just some small potatoes and 5 pieces of pumpkin...no gravy/jus. Not a lot of value for $39.
Never disappoints.Friendly staff;many here from Italy enjoying our lifestyle.Food great and fresh.Pasta superb and value.Rosemary and garlic bread a winner.Knowledgeable wait staff on wines.We had the waitstaff recommended san giovese which was great.Will be back.
Excellent service and great food. The staff are always accommodating, polite and friendly. They go out of their way to ensure that dining at Ventuno is a quality experience. Range of dishes on the menu is varied and food is of the highest quality. We are frequent diners at Ventuno and will keep coming back.
Prompt service in a busy restaurant before the theatre. Extensive menu of mainly pasta & pizza dishes. Food well presented & tasty. Mainly Italian wine with a good selection
Nice view on the dock, very good service and a typical italian meal. We were 6, add antipasti and pizza for starter. Pasta and risotto for main. Everybody had an excellent time and at $350 all together including wine. Can’t ask for more.
Fabulous views, excellent service and good cocktails. You won't be disappointed - we were in a large-ish group and were very well looked after on a Friday evening. Place is tidy, clean and decor is great. Bar is well stocked and the food is not bad at all. An easy choice for dinner with a view.
Quick service good quality food but somewhat limited choice on pre theatre menu. Convenient restaurant for performances at Sydney Theatre. Able to park car nearby.
Staff excellent , Service good , Food less so....the Pizza,s were a 5 out of 10 !Wine list good but needs some wines from NSW ...as that is were we live and we should support local industry .
Beautiful location - looking out over Walsh Bag. Good food - antipasto fresh and tasty. Nice and quick before going to the theatre. Service always lovely.
We had a great lunch. Beautiful view, very friendly staff & great service. The food was delicious too (we had starters & mains). Definitely worth a visit.
Relaxed dining with classic Italian fare, well prepared and presented. Quick friendly service and the great location opposite the Roslyn Packer Theatre make Ventuno ideal for pre-theatre dining.
Good for pre-theatre meals when seeing a show at the Sydney Theatre Company as they are very efficient. Friendly service. Menu could be more inventive.
Very consistent food, service and great value. We usually book dinner here when we attend the theatre as it’s always reliable. We have tried other restaurants in the area and been let down. Now we just stick to Ventuno. There are not many better places in the world to enjoy dinner with a harbour view on a mild evening.
I was recommended this restaurant by a colleague along with a few more and I’m so happy I chose this restaurant for my partners birthday. The ambience of the restaurant was just what I was looking for, something small and private and by the water with the view of the bay. We ordered our food and didn’t wait long at all, it only took about 10 mins for the food to come out. We ordered the short pasta with eggplant and Napoletana sauce and the prosciutto pizza and it was absolutely amazing. The pasta and pizza were both full of flavour. Everything was simply amazing and would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone and will definitely be visiting again :)
Good enough. Worth a visit. The recommand is exellent before I actually order. To be mentioned also the cocktail is a must try and the fish is for real
Delicious food, great value, stunning location: a prefect pre theatre venue. Make the effort to get there early enough so you can sit and relax and enjoy the view before heading off to the show!
