Maccaroni Trattoria Italiana in the Melbourne CBD is serving rustic and authentic Italian food like its meant to be – flavoursome, simple and made with a healthy dose of Italian passion. The chefs behind this Manchester Lane restaurant are dedicated to following traditional recipes (just like Nonna used), using their knowledge from homeland Italy and adding just a touch of gourmet modernity. Freshly made pasta is undoubtedly the star of the show at Maccaroni Trattoria Italiana, ranging from gnocchi and tagliatelle to fettuccine and pappardelle. Yet the menu also offers rustic pizzas, traditional mains and homemade desserts that will satisfy any guest – especially when enjoyed alongside the Italian and Australian wines available. Better yet, the service and atmosphere of Maccaroni is both genuine and inviting. Located in the Melbourne CBD, this restaurant is understandably popular and making an advance booking is highly recommended.

• Mexican • Melbourne CBD
Booked 5 times today
Finding harmony between authenticity and originality is something that first ignited the flame at Mesa Verde back in 2013 and continues to feed it today. While it’s fairly evident that an affinity for Mexican food and agave spirits is at the helm of what we do, our city’s rank on the culinary frontier has brought with it a particular nose for experimentation. So, since we’re very literally in the heart of Melbourne up here on the sixth floor of Curtin House, high above the city’s jugular Swanston Street, we feel it’s our responsibility to highlight what Mexican dining (and drinking) looks like in the eyes of the modern Melburnian. $10 Margaritas 4pm - 6pm daily.

    What a little gem! Great service, delicious food and a cozy atmosphere. We had the $49 Saigon social deal. Amazing value for the amount of fantastic food we received. The spicy salmon was insanely delicious. Cocktails were beautiful and so refreshing. The spice girl packed a punch, definitely our favorite. Will definitely be visiting again soon. Thank you for having us Saigon Team!

    I've been here twice now in a year with 2 different friends groups. The recent visit was yesterday for an important and much awaited reunion with some old friends. Our reserved seat was in the corner in a cozy spot. where we could chat and catch up. Our Waiter Lachy was fabulous. He kept us entertained and was very polite and helpful. Already the food and atmosphere in this place are amazing but Lachy was the cherry on the cake. Excellent customer service and attention to detail.
