    Booked Gradi for our anniversary dinner and was where we had our first date. Unfortunately Gradi has clearly changed since then. It was crazy busy and overwhelming loud, lots of families with young children who were crying and screaming. The food is good and arrived very quickly although slightly overpriced. We also booked our table in January for Mid April and were somehow given one of the worst tables. Overall it is fine restaurant for food wise, but the ambiance is not one to be sought out

    Was very disappointed in spending our special event at Gradi. We spent almost $500 in food and drinks and the service was terrible. Firstly our waiter was mute, just grunts and mmms no words. We had a large group taking orders and she didn't write anything down, we asked her if she wanted to write this down to remember and she said that's fine. Low and behold she messed up the order and forgot one of the dishes! To top it off they were angry when asked to hold the door open to push a pram throug

    Food was great service however was slow for food. When making payment had to wait for the man behind the desk to type forever on the screen before he took our payment. He could of attend to us and then typed for as long as he wanted.

    Gradi is a decent Italian restaurant. The food is good quality as you’d expect, but it’s overpriced for Italian food. You’re probably more paying for the location. The service was slow and we had to confirm our order with the waiter twice because he couldn’t remember it. The atmosphere is lively and noisy, so if you’re looking for something quiet and romantic I would avoid.
