Here is some feedback from our happy customers:

" I wanted to say thanks you so much to you and all your staff for my birthday function..everything was just as I wanted it.The food was lovely - and many of the guests commented on the high standard...the canapes were fantastic...and all the mains were delicious, as were the desserts. What was even more notable was the great level of service received from Keiron and the other staff who looked after us with such great attention, professionalism and care. Thanks to everyone at Vicini for making it such a great night."

"Robert and I would like to thank you and the staff for our sons christening party on the 7th February. The food and service was great and thank you for going over and above by providing us with fans on what was a very hot weekend. I also heard afterwards how you accommodated for some of the guests painful requests! Thank you and we hope to be dining again soon when our bubs give us the chance."

""Thank you for facilitating such a pleasant day and christening celebration...The food was wonderful and the service faultless and ran so smoothly. You certainly took any stress away from it for us and I really appreciate all your help. I look forward to coming in again soon and I will definitely highly recommend your restaurant to others"

"Thanks so much for making our big day so great. For us it was ....about having a more intimate experience. the sharing of a meal with just the close friends and family, to celebrate our marriage. It was perfect.
From the great service and fantastic food enjoyed by all, to the little touches like the decorative menus,checking the nervous groom's glass was topped up. The clean and neat bathrooms. The split serving of guests with hungry children. The discreet disposing of a soiled nappy. And the well beaten path by George up the road to get more supplies. These to name a few. This all done with apparent ease despite commitments to a second sitting that evening and a function the following day. Well done and thank you!"
