Ferdinand

Stumbled across this place accidentally. Pizza was delicious and would definitely return. Friendly wait staff as well, and good vegan cheese options.

Love this place. Had the porcini gourmet pizza, a glass of chianti and the broccolini pizza. Absolutely delicious!

We were warmly welcomed and a table reserved where the fact that I use a wheelchair would not impose on other diners. Menu excellent, Service excellent!

My friend and I had the capriciosca and the porcini pizza with Italian sausage- absolutely delightful. The polenta chips were great, as was the chianti and the berry cheesecake

My favourite place in Melbourne! Delicious pizza, pasta, and polenta chips. And the chianti and tiramisu are a must 🥂

Great food, good ambience, and amazing chianti. I brought a friend for her first time dining here and she absolutely enjoyed it. Definitely going back here. Be sure to make it one of your regulars!

Always a wonderful experience when we eat here. great staff, food and atmosphere

Delectable, delightful, and delicious! The porcini pizza is always a must-have but this time I had company so our table also added on the polenta chips (with creamy cauliflower dipping sauce!) and the Nutella heaven (don't ask, just order! No regrets, guaranteed). Can't wait for the next outing at Ferdinand!

I had the porcini pizza- the combination of the mushrooms with gorgonzola cheese and truffle oil was a delectably melt in your mouth experience. I polished it off with a glass of chianti and a Ferdinand's signature tiramisu. Absolutely delightful! 🙂

Amazing food and even better service, couldn’t recommend Ferdinand enough!

Had a pre-lockdown dinner at Ferdinand for my last night of dining freedom! Had the porcini pizza, a glass of chianti, a glass of abruzzo, the polenta chips (entree), and Ferdinand's home-made tiramisu. All winners and all delicious. Can't wait until lockdown is over so that I can dine there again. I'll be getting takeaway in the meantime! 🙂

Always a good time at Northcote's finest Italian restaurant. Authentic, delectable, and great value for money

What can I say? It's always a delight dining at Ferdinand in Northcote. Definitely Melbourne's best and most authentic Italian cuisine time and time again. My friend and I shared the polenta chips (definitely a must-try), the porcini pizza (an absolute favourite!), and the sotto bosco, a delicious vegetarian pizza that was made even more delicious with Ferdinand's mouth-watering truffle oil! Finished the meal with their signature tiramisu all the while sipping on a fragrant and rich tasting chianti 🍷 Can't wait until my next visit!

Restaurant was more then happy to accomodate us, including our wheelchair-bound friend. Food was excellent and staff/owner were very friendly and helpful - and the Banter was a bonus!

The food was fantastic. Very authentic and the perfect touch of Italian cuisine right in the heart of Northcote. Definitely coming back soon!

Great food and very friendly staff! Would definitely recommend to others

Great food, great staff, would highly recommend to anyone wanting great pizza for dinner!

Wonderful service and always great food. Highly recommend. Thank you!

One of the best gluten free pizza bases in Melbourne and love the wine list. Will be back!

Amazing arancini - and delicious woodfire pizza. Consistently recommend this place to friends.

Always a great dining experience at Ferdinand. The porcini gourmet pizza is to die for; the limoncello martinis are a nice citrus touch; and you can't go past their rich and creamy tiramisu!

Always a great experience dining at Ferdinand. Was a last minute booking and they fit me in with less than an hour's notice as I dragged my friend from the other side of town over to Northcote to experience the best pizza this side of the Yarra has to offer. Siandor, Francesco and the team are always a delight 🙂

Nice food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. We weren’t pressured to leave after a certain time which I loved.

It'll be nice when in starts to get busier again as that impacts the atmosphere but it meant that the waiting time on food was non-existent! We love Ferdinand and will keep coming back

Very relaxing and enjoyable. Food was delishhh will certainly be back thanks

The food was delicious and very friendly service. Would be great to see a 4 cheese gnocchi on the menu as well :)

Excellent pizzas and great service. Will go again before long.

So good to be back here supporting a local business! Nothing's changed- the pizza is still delectable, the wine selection on point and the tiramisu the perfect end to cap off a memorable dining experience 🙂

Great service and beautiful food. They also have a lovely selection of quality wine to choose from.

The best joint going around in northcote for sure .

Great service. DELICIOUS food with decent portions. And a lovely atmosphere. Love going to Ferdinand :)

Delicious... And great service! Would definitely go back for a feed again!

Best pizza ever eaten. The porcini mushroom pizza is amazing

Great food, great service and great owner and staff - thanks.

Some of the best pizzas in Melbourne! And a lovely atmosphere.

Great atmosphere, great service, amazing food! Will definitely be coming back!

Although you could tell they use good quality ingredients, the pizzas were a little dry and the salad needed more dressing...good service by staff and ambiance quite good...

Amazing arancini, crisp chips, tasty pizza, lovely wine and a relaxed atmosphere all tied up in a bow by great service.

Ferdinands consistently provide great service and great food. It is still our favourite pizza place.

Great service, food, wine and dessert! Always a delectable dining experience at Ferdinand- the staple go-to restaurant for authentic Italian cuisine north of the Yarra

Ferdinand never fails to serve up the best Italian dining experience in Northcote. It doesn't matter if the restaurant is at capacity or if it's just opening for the evening, the service is always speedy and friendly. Scrumptious pizza and a great selection of wine too. And for dessert, the apple and rhubarb panna cotta is a must-try!

As initially placed in a bad Seating location but was allowed to relocate when I asked the staff. That was appreciated

Great food and great value for the price. Would recommend

Lovely food and service. A little bit of confusion with a new waiter, but the owner had a bit of fun with it and it was no issue! It was our second visit and we'll surely be back again.

Excellent all round! Delicious food and great atmosphere. My new favourite pizza place.

Fantastic kid friendliness service great food amaze would visit again anytime

Great Pizza, amazing dough, we’ll be back to try more

Nothing to complain about. It was a lovely dining experience.

Ferdinand is always consistently good, with a delicious range of pizza and pastas

Great pizzas, friendly staff, very relaxed. Highly recommend for family night out
