   Sadly very average service and average food! Have been for drinks before and loved it but the ambiance was very off and not very fluid service. The food was very expensive for what it was. Sad as potential to be such a nice spot!

   Went for the feed me and have to say it was one of the least enjoyable ones I have had in Melbourne. None of the dishes were particularly great, the signature fried pasta we received didn’t look like any of the pictures of similar dishes from the restaurant online, it tastes bland and heavily doused in oil. The dessert mousse similarly came with a pool of olive oil in the middle, which our waiter didn’t explain what we were meant to do with the oil. Low value for $89 feed me

   Inexperienced staff. Poor food presentation - looked unappetising Rejected dessert: chocolate mousse looked like poo smeared across place covered in salt with a pool of olive oil in the centre? What was that!

   Service was outstanding. Had the de-gustation menu which was fantastic, as we didn't really have to think too hard and the food was complimentary, yet contrasting in its tastes, textures and presentation. Really enjoyed the ambience and as the venue filled up (we got in early at 6pm), the service continued to maintain excellent standards.

   A wonderful Italian experience. The food and service were exceptional and the limoncello was the best i've ever had!

   The food and staff were lovely, however the wine list was not extensive enough and I believe the average bottle of red wine to be at least $250 is quite absurd. There was only one or two options under $100. Considering we live in the area with many amazing wine bars and restaurants that offer great affordable wines, we unfortunately won’t be coming back anytime soon.

   Gorgeous little place and the food was fabulous. With the plethora of Italian restaurants in Melbourne, it can be hard to stand out - this place is up there with the best!!

    Very small portions. No description of the dish on menu. Expensive for what it is.
