Vibrante

Ran out of Special Barrundi and Oysters, no mention of shortage when order taken . Service slow, had to request dessert menu then chase up desserts. Also chase up bill .Disappointing experience.

Atmosphere was vibrant - restaurant was busy, but prompt service. I had the eggplant stack for entree and beef ragu for main. Generous size servings, and both meals were delicious. Very happy with my meal choices.

The food came way too fast and was not great. The calamari was really wide and oily, the eggplant chips dry and chewy. The dipping sauce tasted like bottled mayonnaise. The gnocchi was plentiful but left the diner with a very upset stomach.

Excellent overall. Not as noisy as many other Italian restaurants. Beautiful food. Good value. On this occasion the service was a little slow, however on previous occasions I have found the service to be excellent.

A splendid birthday lunch with my wife and a close friend, topped off with a sparkler on my beautiful Sticky Date Pudding with caramel sauce!

Pork belly fantastic. Staff and management friendly and service first class. Great restaurant. Sweets are delicious and coffee is excellent.. highly recommend for a quiet lunch or dinner

Friendly, courteous and efficient staff were the highlight of our visit. The meals were very good, all guests were served at the same time. Would highly recommend

Great food and service. The waiter was very friendly and the meals come out quickly. Good value for money. We will return again. A must tyy

Location allowed easy access with ample parking. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Great service. Good choice of menu and the food was immaculate. Well done Vibrante!

Wonderful food as usual. The portion sizes were bigger than expected and were good value. Service was prompt and friendly. Will go again, hopefully soon.

Asked staff how many prawns and how many scallops would I receive in the entrée dish. I was told 4 of each. When the dish arrived I received 2 prawns and 3 scallops. I mentioned this to the same staff who replied that the kitchen must have reduced the size of the servings. I asked them to mention my concern to the kitchen. I did not hear back from either the staff or kitchen.

Have been coming to Vibrante for years.Last night we had dips and arancini balls for entree,the seared Tuna and prawn salad ( special ) Veal and Lamb Shanks for mains.The food was fantastic, and the staff and service are excellent.Would highly recommended this place.

Good 'traditional' food - nothing cutting edge or new fad. Upstairs dining area lacks a bit of atmosphere, and the staff are efficient but lack 'personality'. Whilst you don't want them interrupting or carrying on long conversations, they do need to be able to look you in the eye and acknowledge your existence rather than looking around for the next table to attend while taking your order. But that aside I recommend the venue

The service was attentive and friendly but not intrusive . My meal of pork was well cooked juicy and flavoursome. My partner's dukar encrusted salmon was OK but the skin was tough and not chrisp. We both enjoyed our deserts and coffee. Accepts AMEX. Overall a great night.

Great food. Great service. Friendly staff. The atmosphere was great. Price of food was affortable too. Will definitely be going again. Thanks to the team on a great night

Service fell short on this occasion which was unexpected. Restaurant was busy and and this undoubtedly was contributing factor. However restaurant is good value with excellent food and reasonable prices.

There were 4 of us there for dinner, and while 3 of us had pleasant meals, the 4th meal was a major let down. ‘Fish and chips’, proved to be a huge disappointment. Small thin slithers of fish encased in large amounts of batter. Sorry, will be quite a while before we return.

We had a very pleasant Christmas break up at Vibrante. Everyone enjoyed the food and pleasant atmosphere. Service was quick, efficient and friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant to others.

The food was good. The service fair and the ambience non existent. It was far too noisy ,so as soon as we ate our meals we left and had coffee over the road. We couldn’t carry on any conversation with our friends I will not be going back

We only had coffee and cakes, but the service was friendly and quick. The cakes was amazing especially the Creme Brûlée! The ladies room was neat and clean .

Place looks amazing with beautiful art work, photos and deco. Food was amazing good and served quickly. Staff were polite, efficient and friendly. The selection of cakes were mouth-watering and so varied!

Excellent service. Beautiful fresh food. My risotto was immediately replaced when I expressed to the waiter that it had too much pepper for my liking.

disappointed with all our dishes that ordered the steak was too tuff and too much fat on it. not friendly stuff or the person that we paid our account.

Vibrante restaurant in Templestowe continues to be an exceptional restaurant in our area. Great service from both Management and staff. Food was great and brought out in time.

Great service and tasty food ! Antipasto sharing plate was a standout. Staff attentive and helpful in particular for one in our party who has allergies.

Great place for a family catchup. Good menu with lots of various options. Had the surf and turf which was ok but not great. The Moreton bay buggs were quite small and the garlic sauce a little bland for my liking. However meals generally good, good gluten free options and lovely desserts

One order came out wrong. Asked for salad and got steamed veggies And steak was chewie. Salmon, and oysters were good.overall good.would go again soon

Mostly a pleasant experience apart from being seated near an opening and closing door with a chilly blast blowing straight onto us . Being of the older generation it wasn't very pleasant. We also had a frozen chip in amongst our cooked chips so kitchen staff may need to take more care with plating up.

Nice restaurant. Food always lovely and consistent. The only criticism would be sitting near the door entrance, which was opened regularly. Not pleasant on a cold night.

it is a very good restaurant and the food is excellent and well presented. We were a table of 10 with 5 children and had to ask if there was a children's menu. It was given to us straight away.

The staff at Vibrante were friendly and attentive. When we asked to be moved from close to the entrance, they were very obliging and understanding. Our party of 5 enjoyed the main courses we had ordered, especially the Pork ribs which were tasty and delicious, the Potted Pie's pastry was flaky and the vegetables were cooked just right. The sticky date pudding was enjoyed by all. Will definitely return soon.

Great atmosphere and fabulous location. The service was efficient and all the staff were friendly. The food was excellent. Overall this was a very satisfying experience and good value for money

Consistently good service and generous,well presented meals.Enough variety to please everyone with the addition of weekly specials .BYO is always a plus particularly for regular patrons.A great local addition.

Excellent value for money very courteous staff would recommend to anyone have been for lunch and dinner can not fault it very central and parking is ok

Great food and atmosphere. Staff were all lovely and helpful. We were the last ones there and they didn't pressure us to leave. Nice night out.

The food was tasty and the waiter very attentive and pleasant. Not too noisy so a pleasant chat was possible. Will come back at late date.

Great restaurant in a really nice building.. Tremendous food and great service. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Perfect for couples, families, romantic nights and groups

We had ordered barramundi and gnocchi. The food was delicious and the service was great. We didnt have to wait long time from starter to main dish. We will come back again for sure.

Arranged a lunch for 6 for a pre Christmas "break up" and from the easy online booking service to the delicious main course and desserts, a great time was had by all. Highly recommended, Vibrante is great value in all aspects.

The service by the staff was excellent ,surroundings and table placement which we had asked for was great . The food and preparation was beyond excellent , just a great day and experience.

good service,only fault 2 medium rare steaks came out as medium otherwise a nice lunch was had by all 6 of us. we will come again

the service and the food was very good. a little noisy at times. we would look forward to dining there again. we have encouraged other to try this restaurant.

Had a lovely Father's Day lunch with family. Good menu variety. Attentive staff. Would definitely go back again. Recommend to others who haven't yet tried it

food was lovely, lots to choose from on the menu. Service was good. Was a little noisy & hard to hear at times but overall a lovely night
