they are the real deal when it comes to old school Italian food. The entire menu rocks and the staff are friendly. You get served very quickly and the foodalways coMes out in a jiffy. This is because the menu is limited and the place is always busy. They serve wine in super cute old style glasses you’d expect a little bibite (softdrink) to come in. Go there and experience Italy on Melbourne
Ballarat St, Yarraville, VIC 3013, Australia
Awesome Cambodian / Vietnamese crossover food. A great place for communal dinning to enjoy delights such as hand made rice paper rolls, hot pumpkin wontons and spicy Vietnamese fishcakes. Or you can enjoy a beautiful Char Kroeung or Hokkien noodle dish. The veggies they serve with all the dishes with are sublime in freshness. You really can taste the difference here versus many other Asian resturants. I’m not a big Asian food fan, but I love this place. it also crosses the chasm where most Aussies or Westerners will enjoy the food.
The room is very cosy with long benches which are shared with little elbow room – however this can make a cool dining experience for meeting people and having a nice chat with other locals or even a stranger. They also have a nice wine list and beers from the south East Asian region. They also serve up a pretty reasonable coffee too & do takeout. Highly recommended.

A fine dinning restuarant tucked away in the uber groovy Yarraville Village. Expect nothing less than fine dinning. Age fine food guide style. My favourite dish is clearly the Peking Duck Risotto. They also have an extensive wine list and really nice deserts with a modern Australian feel. And have the madatory high end steak for the carnivorous types. There is no particular regional influence in the food but it has a nice variety of dishes. The room is very comfortable with nice bentwood chairs and relaxing atmosphere with soft lighting. Service is of a high standard. Prices reflect the fine dinning atmosphere.

Had a coffee there this morning and it was Ok. It is a real retro style cafe with some old style italian kitchen chairs and a late 1960’s feel. The coffee was pretty good – Hey it’s Melbourne, coffee is always good. But for me it looked a bit too grungy to eat at.
