Decided to try the breakfast option in La Vita. This cafe is located in Curtin University. The place has a very nice ambience, great for casual meetings with friends. The staff here are also very friendly, welcoming every customer. As for the foods, definitely well prepared, but it can be better for the price they set up.

Lavita has become one of our go-to family restaurants. The space is great for families with young kids, and there’s always plenty of food options to choose from, all of which have been tasty. The service is consistently good, and we’ve had nice interactions with Suzzie, who’s always been friendly and accommodating, especially with the little ones. It’s a comfortable spot for a relaxed family meal. Highly recommend!

La Vita is more than just a restaurant — it’s an experience, an emotion, where quality and quantity are never compromised. For nearly two years, I’ve been a regular visitor, and each time the food has been nothing short of exceptional. Every bite reflects a perfect balance of flavour, freshness, and passion. What truly sets La Vita apart is the warmth it radiates. It doesn’t feel like you’re dining out; it feels like you’re part of a family. The staff, both in the kitchen and at the front, are consistently professional, welcoming, and attentive. Even during the busiest times, the food never loses its signature taste and quality — a testament to their dedication and skill. Even on my birthday, they even surprised me with a cake — a gesture that made me feel genuinely special. In today’s world, where most places focus only on profit, La Vita focuses on creating memorable customer experiences. La Vita is not just a place to eat; it’s a place to belong. It’s an emotion that makes you feel valued, where every visit feels special, and where unforgettable moments are created. For me, La Vita will always be a blend of exceptional cuisine, heartfelt hospitality, and a feeling that stays with you long after you leave. La Vita isn’t just my favourite restaurant — it’s my happy place.

We heard about this little Italian restaurant tucked away inside the Curtin University campus through a friend and decided to give it a try. It was a very quiet Sunday evening and so the service was prompt. Our orders came out quickly. All of us had spaghetti of some sorts. The pasta was cooked to al dente, my marinara was pretty good. Aglio olio with chilli prawn and cherry tomatoes was not that great though. The taste was on a saltier side and the texture was more oily than creamy. My son absolutely loved the woodfire baked garlic bread though. Overall, we enjoyed our meals and a short stroll around the area.

This restaurant is near the curtin campus. We went on the weekend so there was free street parking nearby available. All three of us ordered the parmy with chips and salad and it was impressive. Nice meaty chicken breast with a delicious Napoli sauce and cheese. I really enjoyed the flavour and the chips and salad were great. This is one of the few side salads I have actually seen my dad finish. He really enjoyed the salad. The salad, chips and parmy were very fresh and tasty. The prices were reasonable. You can even get a pint of great northern super crisp for $10. Overall an enjoyable experience and we plan to return soon for more delicious food.

First time eating here, wasn't difficult to find. Food was great, friends enjoyed the food. Portion was good enough for the price paid. Especially enjoyed the pumpkin based pizza as it's not something I often see in menus. Lots of parking available. Placed a 4 star for service because drink (chai latte) took a long time (8-10 minutes) to arrive, for a service at 8pm. Food already arrived at 5 minutes after ordering, but drink was after, had to remind staff about it.
