The greatest gnocchi Bolognese I have ever tasted. Garlic bread to die for. Friendly wait staff. We asked for no onion in a risotto, and the chef came to our table and discussed it with us. Large meals, both dine in or take away

Love Love this place.. Absolute fav!! the food is amazing and they are very flexible with changing the sauce and other stuff as per your liking. I always order the pasta which is actually in red sauce but when requested they do it with white creamy sauce which is absolutely delicious.

I have been once before to this restaurant and as the name suggests ... no suprise its italian cuisine.

I am fussy when it comes to italian food and found the meals to be very nice

It was a busy night, but we managed to get a table without too much of a problem.

We have been here several times now, and if you can get past the rather unimaginative business name, you will find a very good Italian family restaurant. This place pitches itself as being a more upmarket version of La Porchetta's down the road, and it does this extremely well. The pizza's are your standard fare, but done extremely well, with the bases always cooked to perfection, and generous quantities of toppings. This place always gets packed out on Friday and Saturday nights, and it gets extremely noisy, but in a good way! Not a pace to go for a quiet dinner, but the staff, although always having many tables to wait on, do a wonderfully professional job, and not once have they made even the slightest mistake with our order - even when we rocked up as a table of 16 (with 6 kids!) to celebrate our sons birthday.

Approximate cost: $15

The food at Greensborough Italian & Seafood has always been and remains fabulous with a small comment - bit light on the prawns, not sure 3 are adequate in a pasta dish where prawns are listed as a main ingredient. A couple of things let this place down these days - it was so cold inside my son was shivering and I had my coat on through the entire meal. It did get warmer after asking for the aircon to be adjusted however, not warm enough to take my coat off.
The service - removing plates before people had finished eating - don't they know it's rude to clear a table while people are still eating and especially clearing a plate from under someone - had food to her mouth and the plate was removed from under her.
Not listening to the customer, not making eye contact with the people at their tables to see if they need/want service, 'forgetting' requests. The service used to be as good as the food, can only hope they put that pride back and teach their staff the finer points again.
All said, the food is too good not to return...

The food is beautiful every time we have been either eat in or take away. Bit disappointed with the limited alcohol selection, only basics. The atmosphere isnt the best - but for a quick good meal I would highly recommened this place.

I have been here a fair few times and i love it. The staff are friendly and the food is great. I'd recommend the garlic steak with chips (the chips with the garlic sauce at the end are awesome lol, and it's actually a sauce rather than garlic butter like a lot of places use). Also, the garlic bread is the best I've ever had. Great place to go with the family or a date, very relaxed atmosphere (can get a little bit noisy at times but not too bad), only real down side is the couple of tables near the front door but that doesn't really matter.
Overall just a really good place. :) Definitely recommend it.

Approximate cost: $12 - $21

We have been here several times and each time a meal had been delivered incorrectly or undercooked. Room is far too small for the number of tables that are squeezed in. Very noisy and overcrowded. Pizza's are nice and meal sizes are generous but overall a little disappointing.

Have been once and certainly had a dinning experience. No atmosphere. Sub standard service. Appalling quality of food. Will not be going back.

If you want a great Italian meal, you really can't go past the Greensborough Italian. The chocolate mouse Steve makes is the best I have ever tasted, and being a chocoholic that's saying something. The values of meals are fantastic, and are suitable to take the whole family, or enjoy a romantic dinner for 2. The service is great. The price does not match the quality of food.....it's better! My favourite restaurant by far,

Approximate cost: $15-$20
