The theatre of food at Teatro is synonymous with a Italian marketplace. From delicious selection of Antipasti to Traditional Italian wood-fired pizza, and amazing Pasta dishes Teatro caters for all guests. Whether a quick dinner before a show at the arts centre, a wine or cocktail with the river view or a lunch before heading to the art gallery or the gardens of our beautiful city.
A fresh seasonal produce driven menu inspires our ever-changing Italian cuisine with plenty of vegetarian and Gluten Free options. The theatre itself remains constant, but the food and the menu are constantly evolving. Why not enjoy the stunning views of the Yarra River whilst indulging in some Chianti & dessert on Southbank Promenade.

    Great spot for a pre-theatre bite. We shared a charcuterie plate and some arancini balls and had enough to satisfy two older women.

    Food was of reasonable quality but greatly overpriced. The restaurant was particularly well located for attendance at a show at Gamer Hall.

    Nothing special for what we paid, small serves of pasta and very noisy. On the up side Staff were friendly and nice location if you get to sit in the right table otherwise you don’t see the river view.

    Lovely venue, great staff and service, good quality food. Only disappointing aspect was no pizzas available on the dinner menu. This was not stated on their website.

    The service was great but the food was a let down. We were sat at the corner of the bar next to a mess of personal staff belongings and the toilets.

    This is a great pre-theatre or concert place with speedy service and a lively location. The food was okay - would not write home about either the lasagne or the seafood linguine, and being almost $50 for the latter, value for money could be a bit better. That being said though we had a pleasant experience and the service was friendly.
