What a beautiful night out. On a previous trip to Melbourne with my family we had stumbled across Degraves Lane, so when my wife and I were back in town for mothers day we thought we would head back for another feed. When we got there we couldn't remember where we had previously eaten, so we thought we would give... More

We stumbled across this lane by accident but it had a lovely little selection of bars and cafes along it. We stopped for a drink and sat outdoors. The service was excellently - so much so that we stayed longer than planned! Good prices and atmosphere too.

This restaurant is in a busy little lane and was just lovely & what I love about Melbourne. The service was fantastic from the time we were seated outside till we left, our waitress also suggested what was really great on the menu. We had Chicken penne pasta with pumpkin sauce & Chilli Garlic prawns and both were delicious. The... More

The menu is not really very exciting, but the food is of a good standard and always reliable. The service here is also very good. The atmosphere in the restaurant makes me feel like I'm somewhere in Italy which is why I keep going back.

Stopped here purely by chance and had the wine and pasta special (plate of pasta with a glass of red or white for $20). Food was really good, very quick and a reasonable serve. The accompanying wine was also fine. We had the calamari risotto and the rigatoni with salami with a white and red wine. The Rigatoni sauce was... More

After a huge day at Albert Park and a few laps of the city, having alighted the tram at the wrong end of town, we almost fell into the chairs outside this restaurant. Dog tired and ravenously hungry, we would have eaten our own limbs rather than succumbed to the myriad of fast food joints we passed. On our return... More

Ate here with no idea what it was like. We were very pleasantly surprised. We had the salmon and zucchini bruschetta which was lovely. My companion had the duck risotto which was delicious - a real winner. I had the seafood pasta which also was lovely but the duck risotto was the standout dish. We finished off with tiramisu -...

This restaurant didn't put a foot wrong, great atmosphere, perfect food, exceptional service. The owner (who is is originally from Italy) even found time to come chat a few times and to make sure we were happy. The location is my favourite. Degraves street is a great lane way with a lovely atmosphere! The price is fairly reasonable too!

We were wandering around looking for a light late lunch and found this place. We shared the duck liver and mushroom bruschetta - it was absolutely delicious. Nice street ambience and very friendly staff who were genuinely intereseted in our impressions of the food. A real jewel.
