Elio's Osteria - CARINA HEIGHTS

Booked for a Saturday evening 7pm table for 4. Seated immediately by friendly staff in outside area. Was a bit cramped for our liking and due to the shear amount of people it was rather noisy. Service was very good with friendly staff who were always willing to have a laugh with you. Food arrived in a very reasonable time (unsure of exact time to serve as we have good company so lost track of timing). Entrees were Arancini balls and the Cheesey Garlic Bread. All very hot and delicious. Mains all arrived at the same time (within a couple of mis of each other) which was great and a reasonable selection of drinks to choose from. Be warned, if you are not super hungry or are not a big eater order the entree size mains if you had a starter. Everyone was very happy with the way the meals presented, temperature and tasted. Can recommend the BBQ Ribs, and pizzas. We were all too full for dessert although the Italian Donuts looked pretty darn tempting. Cost was a reasonable $230, that was two alcoholic drinks each, three starters and four mains. Even the owner came out to great people and had a laugh with us. Will definitely be going back.

Fabulous service, staff are warm friendly and attentive! Pizza was good but pasta was average ! So much sauce and so little pasta . Was not enjoyable at all .

This place is the best, I come here far too often and I love bringing all the people I know with me, I cannot recommend it enough

We adore Elio’s. Without fail they manage to be both the most personal and the most professional restaurant. They are an impressive team who make us feel comfortable and bring us top quality food. I’ve always been impressed. I think it is 8 visits so far. Many more to come.

Always a pleasure to dine at Elio’s. Paul and his crew welcome you like family and ensure that diners have a wonderful and warm experience. Thank you for always making our family and friends feel welcome and when we leave we feel cared for well-fed. Xx
