Best Authentic Restaurants in Balwyn

We had authentic Italian food served by caring staff in a cute and cosy dining room. Very warm and friendly servers, lovely ambience and fairly priced. We thought the quality of the ingredients was high and want to return to try more of the menu.

Great atmosphere, outdoor seating has wonderful ambience, superb food, terrific and friendly staff. Looking forward to returning to Tesoro.

We had an early table at 5:45 upstairs. It’s a great room and we were sitting in the area between the kitchen and the bar which was quite narrow, but the staff were very attentive and watching always for anyone moving in that narrow section the restaurant had an amazing turnover of people. Which I would think was a testament to the good service and the good food lots of families having, a quick meal plus others who were grazing and enjoying the atmosphere. The fit out is really really wonderful. Everything was tiptop from the time we walked into the restaurant to the time we left. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was exemplary. we had oysters, fish and steak. The steak could’ve melted in my mouth like it was covered in butter, the oysters were incredible. The cheese platter was incredible. You know I have to say for a local restaurant. It’s a nine out of 10. We will be back at least 100 times thanks for looking after us Grazie.

Food was very good, service was also very good; A great place to dine.

Sommeliers who know what they are talking about. Food that is delicious. Vibe that is warm. Such a great place! Love it
