Before I talk about the (absolutely amazing and incredible) food, I want to talk about the service.
Kindness is so very rare these days. But you’ll find it in abundance here. Staff and the owner are so accommodating for those of us with disabilities. The first time I came with my support worker, staff happily turned the music down for me, as I was getting very overstimulated. I’ve also ordered through uber eats multiple times. However, today the app did not put my order through as gluten free (possible glitch). Jackson and the owner went well and truly out of their way to rectify this, and get the right order to me.
To say I’m grateful isn’t enough. There are no words strong enough to convey how full my heart is, because no other restaurant would go as far as these beautiful souls did. As I am unable to cook for myself right now, the fact they looked after me like this, when it wasn’t even their mistake in the first place, is proof that there are people in Melbourne that truly are the soul and the beating heart of this city.
The food itself is beyond delicious. Finding gluten free fried chicken is hard….finding gluten free poutine is even harder! And the grilled zucchini is so delicious, I had to fight my support worker over it haha. The mash and gravy is so comforting with the chicken, it’s real soul food.
Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
We have been a couple of times and enjoyed the venue. The service 😀 and the cocktails 🍸were good, with some interesting or a twist from the original recipes. The food is good, well priced. The rice is well cooked and not a gluggy mess. A good range on the menu with gluten-free and vegetarian options. I think a little more spice could have been added. However, they are trying to cater for
all tastes. I would go back again.
Me and my girlfriends got the set menu and fiorini wine to pair. Great food, the lamb shoulder was amazing, the beef and pork ragu was my favourite, didn’t love the salad. They catered to our gluten free requirements. Staff were lovely. Place gives kind of rustic Italian vibes , homey and comfortable. Cute little place
We had a wonderful meal last night with our family. Chef Sibel and her staff were super accommodating with some gluten free options etc. Can’t wait to go back!
Had a wonderful night with my friends here. Our server was very attentive, and helpful. He was super knowledgeable and articulate when explaining the wine list and kept us very comfortable. They also have a very coeliac friendly menu. The decor is gorgeous and warm and I can’t wait to return.
We went for a family birthday dinner and got the set menu - all the food was absolutely delicious, huge portions and very good pricing. We had vegan and gluten free people and they catered to that too. The restaurant was busy but the service was prompt and friendly. Wine was also delicious. Great experience - yummy food and good vibes.
Overall, it is a good representation of Italian food. Pizzas are not extraordinary, but seafood pasta, which we ordered for my partner, was an excellent choice and taste exceptional. My wife is gluten tolerant, so pasta she chose was gluten free, she commented that one of the best gluten-free pasta meals she has eaten is so well done! BYO is not allowed 🚫 so that was one down part. There was only one sparkling option on the menu. We have ordered that bottle (prosecco). It tastes well and reasonably priced, so it's not big of a complaint point. We can recommend it if you are looking for an Italian restaurant in Melbourne.
Celiac friendly
