Toilet needs looking at, just one shared toilet for all…difficult to get to (2 flights of stairs) if your elderly person it doesn’t look good.

Great food as usual. Had the lamb shoulder and my wife had the beef brisket. Both were very tender and very good. Great service.

Lovely meal, lots of options/choices. Owner very welcoming! Some lovely background music would elevate the ambiance. The young waiter could do with some hospitality education: did not understand the process of clearing dishes whilst one person was still eating, attention was not paid to which meal/cutlery was for each of us. A very lovely local dinner was served. Thank you! We will return!

Food was nice, specials explained well. But really disappointing to sit down to a dirty table cloth. Looking at the splashes of the previous diners on the table cloth was really off putting.

First time at this restaurant. Was recommended by a friend. Absolutely loved the food taste and quality. Restaurant owner and waiters were very friendly and provided good service. Enjoyed our dinner. Note that this is a BYO restaurant so remember to bring your own bottle of wine to enjoy with the food.

Always delicious food made even more appealing by the warm hospitable environment of this little suburban restaurant. A place where the personal touch and going the extra mile to meet customers needs is the norm. Anthony and his father John genuinely enjoy what they do and this is palpable in both the food and restaurant ambience.

First time in this unpretentious family run Italian restaurant. The chef owner has trained in some of the better Melbourne restaurants and we were warmly welcome by his dad. The food is simple but very tasty. The pasta is homemade,. I loved the marinaded salmons, the parppadelle with olives and sausage and the Tiramisu The serves are generous and the prices lower than most restaurants. As a bonus it is a BYO restaurant. A great local for us. We’ll be back ❤️
