How we read reviews →A tiny Toorak trattoria where owner Gabriele treats every table like family and the handmade pasta does the rest.
Small, cosy and intimate - reviewers compare it to eating at a nonna's house, with white tablecloths and only around ten tables creating a warm neighbourhood feel.
Owner Gabriele works the floor personally, remembering regulars' preferences and adding personal touches like a birthday candle or complimentary liqueurs; handmade pasta and a lunch set menu with wine included.
Reviewers consistently describe the food and hospitality as authentically Italian, crediting owner Gabriele's personal, old-world approach to service.
Widely called extremely reasonable for the quality - the lunch special (two to three courses plus wine from around $29-40) draws particular praise as exceptional value.
