Il Solito Posto

Really enjoyed our dinner here with the family. Nice cozy atmosphere with a good hubbub of noise. Great meals with the pumpkin/pancetta risotto and the chicken liver parfait to start. Great to see the Rockford wines in the list as well, though sadly out of my price range. Though the Atlas shiraz we had instead was excellent. We’re looking forward to returning when we are next in Melbourne.

Amazing meat balls on polenta. School prawns are out of this world - pure poetry in the plate. Child friendly in style. Staff is amazing, friendly and helpful. Matt was amazing and helpful, his food suggestions were on the spot. If you want the place with great food, great environment and outstanding service, come to this Melbournes gem.

A fabulous authentic Italian restaurant with traditional dishes to satisfy all tastes. The specials are always a great choice and add to the usual choices of an Italian restaurant. The service is efficient and friendly when the serving calms down. I love the location and the decor and is typical Melbourne. Missed the food photos as we were all too quick to start. Definitely worth a visit.

This is our first time here. Alana was so friendly and extended a warm welcome. She guided us through each course beautifully. We started with School Prawns and chicken salad. We finished it up with Gnocchi filled with Ricotta cheese accompanied with Clare Valley Shiraz. Everything was so gooood. For me, Gnocchi took the prize. The Dolce menu too looked delicious, I’d have liked the Vanilla bean Pannacotta with fresh berries but we were so full. Finished dinner off with a nice flat white and a short black. The best coffee I’ve tasted. Strongly recommend the Gnocchi 👍 We are certainly coming here again to taste the desserts before we leave 🥳

Food was very good, although portion size might be slightly small for the price, but it is Melbourne! What is fantastic, or should I say who is fantastic are the staff. Service was quick, but most importantly friendly and made you feel welcomed. They are a credit to this establishment and would make you want to come back for a repeat visit.
