Lipari Cafe Bar Restaurant

Amazing pasta selection, never disappointed when we go here, the pasta platter is good value and will feed 4 people more than comfortably. Staff were attentive and friendly.

I hate it when someone organizes an event here. Food is average and over priced, decor underwhelming and you can't split the bill.

Needs a bit of TLC. No pizza on the menu at this Italian and the atmosphere was definitely lacking, but great service and prices.

One of the best restaurants ive been to.

The team there are so friendly and welcoming.

The food is absolutely sensational!

Always delicious pasta at Lipari. Staff are friendly & efficient. Would highly recommend this wonderful restaurant.

The atmosphere and the staff were very nice, but unfortunately the food did not meet our expectations.
You pay for the quantity, not the quality.
My pasta was supposed to have mushrooms and they were canned. I was hoping for fresh ingredients at a minimum. Flavours were ok but not great. There is definitely room for improvement.

Classic old school Italian, beautifully cooked food. Décor and furniture a little outdated, not modern by any imagination, but hey, I went there for the food! Freshly cooked, melt in your mouth pasta, sooo flavoursome, our choice for Italian in Geelong any day/night of the week.

The staff was very friendly however the food was very bland and tasteless and kind of over priced.

I've been here quite a few times. Best gnocchi ever. Portions are extremely generous. Can never finish it but love taking the rest home with me for my next meal
Absolute value for money.
One thing I would like to see, is more of a warm modern look of the place. Atmosphere very plain, casual and a little out of date. Nothing a good paint won't fix.

Large servings and tasty, classic Italian restaurant in Geelong. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Chilli oil was delicious!

Omg best pasta I've had in a long time. Can't believe I've lived in geelomg all my life and have never been here before. Thoroughly recommend checking this little slice of Italy out you won't be dissapointed.

The food and service was excellent as always and you can't get a better Italian food.

Wow! I just found my new favourite restaurant! Geelong you are so lucky to have this gem tucked away in a cool little laneway. Gnocchi to die for, fabulous friendly staff (shout out to star waiter Abby!) & such good value. Can’t wait to go back next time I’m in Geelong!

Very underwhelmed by the taste of the sauces and pasta served at this restaurant. Sauce had no wine taste, and lasagna had no bechamel sauce in between layers and just meat sauce slammed on top. Garlic bread was on slighty stale bread, and just underwhelming as well.
Service was pretty good I'll give them that.

My wife and I went into geelong for some dinner most places booked out we walked In after driving past looked empty but was packed to the brim little noisy but great atmosphere ordered entrie that was mistake as we got our meals (mine small) wife’s standard we both ended up having this quality and I mean quality pasta for lunch the next day it was huge and sensational. Will be back Infact will be going there tonight with our kids

It's just not the pasta is the service, the music and the vibe of the place. Amazing staff.

Highly recommended (Bolognese sauce top#1)

The absolute best service and the most delicious, freshly made pasta you can get. Your dinner is always sorted here - and don’t forget to order the garlic bread. Great work as always Lipari, you are number 1!

Absolutely awesome pasta, total credit to the team who were all flat out. You know when you’ve walked into a restaurant on a Tuesday night and every table is full and there’s also people lined up to pick up their called in take away meals that you’re going to get a good meal, and It certainly was

The carbonara i had was bland it was lacking something the long black wasn’t very good it was a little bit bitter I’m not going there anymore

Got my order completely wrong and forgot my utensils. Ruined my night as I'm working at a petrol station and do not have access to any utensils for another 3 hours so I can't even eat the food. Like seriously.its basic stuff!
