Osteria Riva - Bondi Junction

This is one of the best Italian restaurant I went in my life,and I am Italian so I know what I am talking about. The venue is perfect. Even though it was quite cold outside, inside was very comfortable to sit,very warm and cozy. The focaccia bread is the most authentic Italian focaccia bread I ever had in Sydney. It was the first time I tried Fiorentina and I was not disappointed. The steak was just finger-licking good, and the potatoes,oh my god...I wish I can cook them like that!The dessert was such a beautiful blend of flavours,it was the perfect cherry on top of an amazing dinner! They have an huge wine list and,most important thing,you can put truffle in any dish on the menu.It is like a dream come true. We celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary and I am looking forward to spend my birthday this coming Saturday. And to top it all off, all the staff was really helpful, patient and courteous. A really perfect package if you want to spend a good night,with good food in a really lovely place!

We went for our wedding anniversary on a recommendation from a friend and we weren’t disappointed, the ambiance of the place was incredible, the service was brilliant and the food was amazing!! The handmade pastas are delicious, the lamb Raghu was mouth watering. I cannot cannot wait to book again.

Molto bene!! We will be back again , and again, and again, and again!! Thank you for making my father-in-laws birthday dinner so memorable. The candle on the affogato was just delightful. You’re staff are too lovely. Can’t wait to have your pasta again

Fantastic little Italian restaurant Bondi Junction is lacking in good food. It’s so nice not to have such a great place near home.. finally

Such amazing and authentic food, I would fly to Sydney just for a meal here! Highly recommend
