How we read reviews →Maria's Italian trattoria in Richmond. hearty pizza, pasta, and warm hospitality
Rustic, cosy Italian trattoria with warm lighting, Italian memorabilia and a distinctive Coca-Cola wall; a small private courtyard sits behind the dining room; intimate setting that feels closer to eating at a friend's home than a restaurant
Owner Maria personally cooks and circulates the dining room throughout service; $15 weekday lunch specials; small private courtyard; walking distance to the MCG; Coca-Cola wall décor
Authentic Italian family cooking. Maria brings genuine heritage to the menu; gnocchi, calamari and fettuccine fungi earn consistent praise for their soul-food quality over flavour-engineered polish
Generous portions at honest pricing. the $15 lunch specials are exceptional value; dinner is reasonably priced for the serving sizes, though a few reviewers found it pricey relative to consistency
