Our 30th anniversary and we wanted something special - and on a Monday night when many restaurants close. Scusami was perfect - warmed olives as an appetiser with a glass of champers was a nice start to one of the best meals I have ever eaten - the prawn and saffron risotto. And service from a fabulously attentative (but not... More

“Great food and service - ambience not so much”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2012

I had six well travelled business men to take to dinner and Scusami was recommended to me by one of my colleagues. The service was friendly and attentive and the food was excellent. Pricing was close to $100 per head including drinks. It was nice to see that there were a few children in the restaurant, and I believe they... More

“Reasonable choice -Yarra River front”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 April 2012

We ate dinner here with a group of 5 in March. The meal was definitely good, and way above average, but nothing stands out. The prices are much higher than we pay in the US for much better food. However, I thought this about many of the restuarants in Melbourne. I think the weak dollar is one of the culprits,... More

“A little pricey, but enjoyable food and atmosphere”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

The food was quite good, but probably not worth the price that was paid for it. Could easily get similar quality food for cheaper somewhere else. Very friendly wait-staff and a lovely atmosphere. More

“Divine King Fish carpaccio”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I was fortunate enough to pick Scusami for my lunch on Monday in Melbourne. The ambiance is great, the people watching from the balcony is fabulous and the food - well the food is terrific. I started with half a dozen incredibly fresh Sydney Rock Oysers and folwed it by the most divine King Fish Sashimi I have ever tasted.... More
