    Great food and great wine list. We ordered a set menu where beautiful food just kept arriving. The lamb shoulder was scrumptious. The service was excellent too.

    Let's be very clear here. This place is what makes Melbourne, "Melbourne". A very unassuming doorway that leads to complete gastronomic pleasure. I did the mama's' option with a few beers. Awesome.

    I know it's a salumi bar, but the pizzas here are awesome. The three of us ended up ordering 7 pizzas over the few (7?) hours we spent here and they were all delicious.

    Sit outside in the sunshine and eat salumi. It can be very busy around 6pm but the food more than made up for it.

    Delicious Italian food at its best, the pasta just melted in my mouth! Amazing flavour combinations, excellent service and extensive wine menu.

    What a fantastic place. Highly recommend the magherita with some mortadella, sopressa and any another salumi. Mother of God is the nduja bruschetta is hot!

    The Toma, Ossau and Fior d'Arancio cheeses, the Pasticciotta dessert and wine were all brilliant. However, both the pizza and Buffalo stew were mediocre...

    Go for the cicchetti (tapas) menu - the oxtail croquettes in particular are great!

    $45 Mamma's 5 course is great value for money. Get a group together and enjoy wonderful hospitality.

    Start with the Grande Salumi plate and finish with salted caramel profiteroles (often available as a special).

    Не плохо. Хотя меню можно было бы увеличить, на мой взгляд...
