Enjoyed a 40th birthday dinner with my wife's family. The restaurant oozes class with exceptional service. Fine dining at its best. Food is top class and service with a smile. Would highly recommend Trevis for any occasion. Thank you for such a wonderful evening.

Having visited other restaurants nearby, last night was a night to try Trevi Lakeside.

We were greeted upon arrival by who seemed to be the senior staff, but it didn't feel like there was any welcome with the hello. The waiter looking after our section was fantastic and I couldn't fault his service, even if I tried. The restaurant decor is nice and modern. An attractive place to dine.

The entrees arrived. Oysters and garlic prawns, very pleasant, well presented and delicious. I was eagerly looking forward to try my main of crispy skin pork belly. What arrived was crispy skin pork fat. The skin was crispy, but the belly, well it was nothing but fat.

At this point our appetites were gone and we asked for the bill. The manager was kind enough to take 1 of the mains (we ordered a pork belly each) off the bill. Our waiter apologised and mentioned the chef said that's how pork belly is - sorry chef but it is not. We thanked the waiter for his service, paid the bill, and left.

Will we go back? With a lot of hesitation and we will definitely not order the pork belly.

I took my wife to Trevi for her birthday on Saturday night. We're disappointed. The noise of other patrons made it almost impossible to hear each other. Far from "romantic and intimate" as suggested on this site. The food was what you would expect for this price, but nothing special. I'll find somewhere else for her next birthday.

Just had lunch at Trevi today to celebrate a family occasion. Food was good but it took 30 minutes to be served. Worst part of our lunch was having to pay for a glass of coke that was never served. When I was paying I pointed this out to the gentleman but he dismissed this and insisted that he served it himself.

Sad fact is that he did not, I asked him to count the number of drinks served (there were leftovers in all glasses) but he was insistent and as it was a family occasion, I decided just to pay the $4.50 to avoid any more trouble. So not recommending this place to anyone.

Well what a fantastic restaurant. We had booked a table of six for a wednesday night and couldn't believe it was a full house. Not to our surprise after all the great reviews and recommendations to go dine at Trevis. The mix platter entree the waiter recommended was fantastic. It included salt and pepper calamari, seared scollops, BBQ octopus and grilled haloumi parmigiana.

We decided to go alacarte for mains and all decided to try different dishes so we can all get a taste of the different flavors of food. Every dish from the roast pork belly, Yamba stuffed prawns, lobster ravioli, rib eye steak, lamb loin and roast duck all were cooked surperbly and amazing presentation.

Unfortunately, we couldn't fit in dessert but we all finished our meals with their own roasted blend of coffee and chocolate truffles supplied to us complementary. Finally, the hills has a restaurant of high class and great service. Well done to the Trevi team.

Having read the excellent reviews submitted by others for this restaurant, I decided to take my wife there for our wedding anniversary.

We were greeted promptly and taken to our table. The ambience of the restaurant was very pleasant. We each ordered a glass of Merlot, which was excellent. We ordered a side of fresh bread, rather than go for a full starters. My wife enjoyed the bread, but I found it to be very plain. We were surprised to see that for an Italian restaurant, there were not a lot of pasta dishes on the menu. The menu was also tatty and stained with food, which was rather off-putting.

For mains, my wife ordered the Pork Belly and I ordered the Linguine Pescatora. The service was impersonal and brusque. When the meals arrived, we were surprised at the presentation of the pork. It was a large square hunk of pork surrounded by dried-out brown beans. My wife remarked that it would have been better to provide some fresh vegetables to complement the pork. The linguine looked okay, but also did not look like much effort had been put into the presentation. The scallops and prawns were tender and delicious, but the meal was spoilt by the rubbery calamari, the undercooked pasta and the overly spicy sauce.

We decided to cut our losses and went elsewhere for dessert. I would not recommend Trevi as overall I felt that it did not offer good value, the service lacked a personal touch, and the food was poor to average.

Food was lovely (we ordered seafood which is the most common item on the menue) and had fantastic service. The scene is upmarket but not smug and the choice of wine good. A great place for lunch (the time we visited) and I imagine a good place for dinner. Do take your time and do order sides (the vege's on the side really did make the meal).

Nice looking restaurant, the photos don't do it justice. Food was nice, had the beef wellington and the balmain bug crepe as entrees which were fantastic, had beef fillet (which was ok, but nothing special) and the mixed seafood linguine (that was delicious) as mains.

Dessert was the fig tart, not what I expected, but still ok. Only issue I really had with the place was that at the beginning of the night the staff were talking and joking around really loudly right behind us which was annoying, to be fair, we were the first ones in the restaurant and they stopped once they were busy. Overall it was nice and I would definitely go back.

Mouth watering food, wonderful service, enjoyable atmosphere. We have dined here twice this year for dinner and for lunch. Both times the food was fantastic and service was excellent.

Try the lunch special. I was a little hesitant as $20 for a meal and a beverage, I thought probably a small portion, I'll be hungry afterwards, I was wrong. I coudn't even finish my meal. The serving was generous for a lunch special. My only suggestion would be to include juice on the lunch special beverage list, my partner prefers juice and this wasn't included in the special. I would think wine is more expensive than a glass of juice. But, a wonderful experience nevertheless.
