Bellezza Restaurant Malvern

Malvern's 15-year Italian-leaning gem famous for scallop tagliolini, veal scallopini and BYO value.

Warm, cosy neighbourhood dining room with a loyal, multi-generational local crowd; relaxed enough for a weeknight family dinner yet dresses up well for birthdays, anniversaries and trivia nights.

BYO wine at a modest corkage charge (a repeated drawcard), house-made pasta including squid-ink tagliolini, regular trivia nights, and a kitchen that caters extensively for coeliac diners. one long-time regular estimates around 70% of the menu is gluten-free.

Described by reviewers as genuinely excellent Italian cooking, fronted by head chef Su, blended with broader Australian and Asian-influenced dishes rather than a strictly single-cuisine menu.

Seen as good value for the portion and quality, especially with BYO wine cutting the bill, though a couple of reviewers felt the veal or pork crackle didn't quite justify the price on an off night.
