Nestled amongst riverside treetops on Southgate’s mid level, La Camera boasts two balconies with stunning views over The Yarra River and iconic Flinders Street Station. The interior is adorned with vintage black-and-white photographs depicting the history of the family that has owned and operated the restaurant since it opened in 2000. La Camera Southgate offers an array of authentic Italian dishes including unique Roman-style pizzas, authentic Pappardelle Ox Cheek from Trastevere-Rome and by far the most delectable Tiramisu in town. The emphasis is on quality ingredients, and fresh seasonal produce.

The food and atmosphere was great. We had a booking for 8.15 which was late for us but it was a warm night. We were told the kitchen will close at 9 so we had to rush our order. Why would you accept a booking that late and then we had to rush… A bit disappointing we couples and enjoy the atmosphere

Absolutely stunning food, wine and service. Just ever so slightly noisy but that’s the only knock we can give. Never ever walk away disappointed from La Camera. We will be back, again, for sure.

We made a booking for 8pm and although the kitchen was close to closing they were happy to accommodate our group of 6 with personal and friendly service. Food was tasty and there was a good wine list. Would happily return.

We went to La Camera for dinner and had a very delicious potato pizza. And then we ordered our "Ultimate heaven" dessert, and it was superb 👏. But most of all, we are always blown away by friendly service and breathtaking views from the restaurant. Well done, La Camera!
