How we read reviews →Lygon Street's nostalgic 'nonna's house' trattoria - hand-made pasta, calamari, sing-alongs.
Warm, nostalgic 'nonna's house' decor down to the retro wallpaper and tablecloths - loud, busy and family-run in feel, with staff leading birthday sing-alongs.
Staff-led birthday singing and table-side dancing, retro 70s/80s Italian-family decor recreated in detail, and gluten-free catering reviewers say never feels like an afterthought.
Reviewers from Italian and Italian-Australian backgrounds repeatedly describe the food and decor as authentically reminiscent of their own nonna's or family home cooking.
Frequently called overpriced for portion size, especially meat mains and pizza, though pasta dishes are seen as reasonably portioned for the atmosphere.
