Strozzi Ristorante

Italian cafe in a grand CBD banking chamber. stellar coffee and a proper Italian breakfast.

Housed inside the historic banking chamber of Melbourne's First Commercial Bank, Strozzi offers one of the CBD's most architecturally spectacular settings. grand dome, elegant stonework, and a corporate energy that suits both power breakfasts and unhurried working lunches.

Grand heritage interior inside a former banking chamber with a soaring dome ceiling. Weekday-only operation (Mon. Fri, 7am-4pm) catering primarily to Collins Street's office community. A recent chef change has noticeably lifted the food.

Genuinely Italian in approach. house-made pastas, risotto with considered ingredients (duck risotto singled out), Italian scrambled eggs prepared with real technique. The kitchen treats Italian cuisine seriously rather than using the setting as a crutch.

Pasta of the day described as pricey but very good. Coffee pricing reflects the premium CBD location. Overall seen as justified by food quality and the setting, though it is a step above a standard CBD cafe.
