For me, that was my first night out without my fiance and son since his birth, so it was a special time for me to be spending it with 6 other mums whom I am growing closer to each week. Going out with them, even though they are all older than me, made feel young again (I'm only 21 but feel like an old lady that stays home all day).
Sieana's sent a good vibe, a young hip vibe. It was very busy and everyones chatter filled the room. I absolutely loved the feeling, like you're in the "in" crowd, having lots of people around you.
Food
Being from a little town by the river and sea, I love seafood so therefore ordered the Spaghetti Marinara. When ordering it I had envisioned mussels in the shell, prawns, scallops and squid. But when it arrived there was only prawns and squid in there which was a bit disappointing. Every other marinara I've had at least had mussels in it. Anyway, I ate it. It was nothing spectacular, had no pizzaz, just a plain spaghetti marinara.
A couple of the other mums ordered pizza, which they seemed to enjoy. And the others had pasta as well which they also seemed to enjoy.
Service
The waitresses were definitely friendly, but seemed to be a bit daft at times. We asked what desserts they had (the menu said to see the cake fridge for a variety of cakes...but there was no cake fridge...), and she told us there was sticky date pudding, which they didn't have, and didn't tell us until we asked where was the one we ordered when everyone else had their desserts. Also she said they had mudcake, then when another waiter came and bought the desserts he's asking, "who ordered the brownie?" Huh? No-one said anything about a brownie. So he asked the lady who had originally ordered the sticky date pudding if she would prefer the "brownie". Apparently he was talking about the mudcake, but he was still insisting it's a brownie, when it obviously was a mud cake. So therefore, he had given the mud cake meant for one lady, to another. So he had to go back and get another mud cake.
I have no idea how any of the deserts tasted as I was super full...that day I had McDonalds for breakfast, and KFC for lunch (p.s KFC chicken in Perth is disgusting compared to NZ).
Overall
I liked the feeling of Sieana's Mt Lawley, but there was one thing I didn't like. I didn't like that the tables are too close to each other. I couldn't move my chair back as there was someone sitting smack bang behind me. I had to manoeuvre myself so I could get in and out of my chair.
So I give Sieana's Mt Lawley 3 1/2 stars.
