    Hidden down a cute laneway in an old motor garage is one of the very best Italian restaurants in the city ... actually, one of the best places to eat! Their Gnocco (atteptiser) is a fluffy savoury starter that never fails to get my guests to say "oh ... wow". Great sharing food (or don't share) and excellent wines (mostly Italian). Pastas are unique, the mains amazing. I visit regularly. Not cheap but certainly not over the top.

    I like how you can now book for an afternoon seat. The staff were friendly and helpful. Have always loved this venue/rooftop. The new seating and undercover area has made it more “Melbourne”. Definitely will be back yet again! Bravo
