I've been here multiple times with my partner, and it's always been a treat! Apart from having delicious Portuguese dishes, what stands out the most is the warm and friendly welcome you'll receive from all their staff. Our go-to dishes are Garlic Prawns, Porco Alentejana, Pipis, Charcoal Pork Belly and Bacalhau a Tachinho. Don't forget to partner your delicious meal with their selection of wine, or grab a bottle of Cerveja Sagres and you're set!

There is no restaurant in Australia where I get this same feeling. Food, service and value all consistently delivered by this lovely family team. Many hospitality businesses have a lot to learn from Silvas. We have been to Madeira island recently and the apple does not fall far from the tree. Authentic, and great experience. This restaurant is also extremely family friendly. My favourite dishes include the Espetada beef, lamb, octopus & mussels.

If they had just served shoe string sized fries, I would choose this place over frangos every time. The food here is pretty much the same quality but I find that when filling the containers, they actually will fill it to the brim and give you quantity. It doesn’t feel like they’re trying to cut costs by going soft on the filling like other places.

Sub par chicken burger. Got their most expensive one the Silvas meal and got a burger with a tiny chicken fillet surrounded by white bread, cheap Mayo and lettuce tomato ..: and this whole portion of chips is old and inedible. Considering the restaurant is full…. Not even sure why their fries is this bad and not fresh. Literally had ogalo last night and that was $3 more for their jumbo meal (double chicken patty) and way better across the board. 0 stars

Portuguese chicken was juicy and delicious. Wow the rice that was served with it was so good and flavourful I can eat that rice on its own. Loved the polenta!Found the pork belly a bit dry and octopus slightly over cooked, but everything else was delicious. Lovely service as well. Recommend

WHY DOES IT TAKE SO DAMN LONG FOR FOOD TO COME OUT??If you can't wait an hour and a half upwards for your mains to come out and spend your whole night in this loud noisy restaurant, you're going to have a bad time.The staff are nice, the atmosphere is honestly not the best, the food is nice but watching six tables of 5+ people diners get served their mains before you feels terrible.Did they literally pull the meat out the freezer, thaw and cook it from frozen? Because it sure feels like it.There is no delivery option here, seems short staffed because it takes ages to wave down staff.I watched one of the waitresses spill half a bottle of Coca cola on two tables (original table + table behind them), she cleaned it up but didn't offer to replace the drink at the original table. Not saying they should be entitled, but I would be VERY unhappy had she spilled it on my phone like she did with the original table.The food overall can be broken down into meat, oil, salt, thyme/parsley + side of veg or carb per dish.Interesting choice to season the lamb cutlets with balsamic oil.I think this place is worth trying, but personally would not come back here. I would say my patience is at best 40min wait for the main after placing the order, then additional time allocated for dining.

I have been here multiple times and here are my experiences:Takeaway - loved the chips here, but the charcoal chicken suffered from uneven cooking, and I also found the lemon and herb sauce to be a bit too sweet for my liking.Dine-in - ordered some seafood dishes and were amazed by the flavours and the generous serving sizes, the highlight was the cod fish served with a tomato sauce topped with oven baked chipsOverall, I enjoyed the food here and shall return to sample more dishes from the menu.

Silvas ticks all the boxes: tasty and interesting food, excellent and speedy service, and a nice setting.We had a variety of types of meat and all tasted quite different. The restaurant was very full but it wasn’t too loud. Book ahead if you have a group.

Fantastic Portuguese food served here. The restaurant has changed owners recently and the space has had face lift. The food was pretty good. We had the Bacalhau à Lagareiro and Espetada de carne, both beautifully done and super tasty.Please give this place a try if you haven’t done so already. Service was pretty good, prices can be a little above average but the quality of the ingredients is noticeable, so very much worth it.

One of the most authentic Portuguese restaurant's in Sydney. Nestled in the heart of Little Portugal" in Petersham they offer the best Portuguese dishes to choose from. Everything is prepared fresh and brought to your table in no time. The portions are huge and the prices are reasonable. Been coming here for years and they have never let me down. Their attitude and customer service is second to none and Steven our waiter
