Last year while I was living out at Parramatta.. I often found myself lost in the ‘suburbs of the west’. As I settled in I got used to the location tried various cafes / restaurants along Church St, Parramatta and Sicilian was one of them.

I found myself in the West again and as usual we had no idea what to eat.. so we trekked back to the Sicilian as a refresher of what their food was like. Over all I’ve been here a couple of times and I’ve always found it to be pretty good for the area.

AMBIANCE
Can get loud as apparently this venue can hold up to 200 people.

SERVICE
Service here is pretty good at times. Sometimes takes them a while to grab the bill other times they’re on the ball. Can’t blame them at the end of the day as they have a huge coverage over the floor.

FOOD
Portions are huge and each time ive gone here i’ve never been able to finish anything and there is a bit of a wait if you haven’t made reservations.

Chicken al Funghi
Grilled tender breast of chicken topped with a creamy sauce made from onion and crushed garlic, all served on a bed of oven roasted sweet potatoes.

This dish is delicious! I’ve had it here a couple of times and i’m always satisfied. However its very very very bigggggg and extremely tasty as the mushrooms / bacon / crispy sweet potato and the creamy sauce that is combined together =P

Prime Rib Eye(350gms)
Tender and tasty organic aged grain fed beef, char grilled to your liking and basted in our secret served with Sicilian seasoned potato wedges topped with grilled king prawns.

Lamb Shank
Tender Lamb shanks marinated in olive oil,garlic, oregano, red wine jus, onion and sun dried tomato served on buttered desiree potato mash.

The boys always seem to order the shanks, apparently they claim its sooo nice… I’d try it but unfortunately i’m not a lamb eater. :(

Pollo Mandorlato
Boneless plump breast of chicken, crumbed in lemon zest and almonds, served with a generous serving of garden salad and chips.

First time ive ever tried this.. I didn’t think it would come out like a schnitzel but guess what? IT WAS SOO GOD DAMN NICE!! the almonds pieces mixed with the crumbed chicken was SOO GOOD! the sauceee was sweet made with rasins! Its been about 5 years since I last had a schnitzel so it was good to bring back the old skool tracks!

I shared by chicken cos i couldnt finish it and ppl wanted to try the crumbedness. I was super good that i didnt eat the chips as i had boot-camp the next day.

Miranda
Generous size grilled chicken breast topped with grilled king prawns placed on a bed of oven roasted seasonal vegetables finished with the chef’s secret avocado and red capsicum cream sauce.

Pasta Misto Mare
A traditional Italian spaghetti dish combining a selection of mussels, prawns, scallops, fish & calamari seasoned with mixed Italian herbs in a napolitana, garlic and basil blended sauce

I usually order this when i come here. I always tell them to add chilli + chilli flakes which always makes it a touch nicer with fire ^_^. Pasta can sometimes be over cooked sometimes aldente.. seafood in here is always packed with goodness.

Mykonos
Prawns, shallots and fetta

This pizza is super plain.. i ordered this at the time when I was a vegetarian =P

Fish of the Day (Gluten Free)
Grilled fresh fish of the day served with your choice of garden salad

Cannelloni Siciliana
Al dente cannelloni pasta filled with a delicious blend of spinach, pesto and ricotta cheese, smothered in a traditional napolitana sauce. Garnished with Penne Campagnia

I remember ordering this dish ages ago because I love cannelloni. However i remember being disappointed because they stuffed it with sooooo much ricotta cheese it made me feel sick from its richness which ended up taking over the flavours of the dish =(

Herb Pizza
This is usually an entree meal. Its sooo huge yet sooo niceee as they pack it with heaps of herbs under the cheese. ITS SOO GOODDD
