The Old Macaroni Factory

This is the place to find atmosphere, great food, and the beautiful story of Italian migration to this country. This wonderful historic place could not be replicated anywhere and we felt fortunate and thankful that the descendants have made this experience possible.

Loved it! Highlight of our weekend. Must go!. Truly authentic italian restaurant. 3 of us tried the forbidden fruit dessert and loved it! My zuchinni and mushroom pasta was delicious. Impossible to stop eating the salami. Great experience; not just great food!!!

Lucini pasta bar absolutely terrible. Food was the worst Italian food I have ever eaten love the old building but does need a lot of work Service was bad

We first went there in 2013 and again tonight. It was awesome then and still is now. If you are after an Italian food expedition, this place is seriously the one to dine at. A family business, Maria and Matt do a fantastic job of making everyone feel welcome and at home like your Italian mother does The pasta is so awesome, you could honestly have a bowl of that and be good. Nonna's bolognaise and the pasta with the Lucini sausage in it make it a gastronomic journey. Seriously, do yourself a favour and get there. Words cannot do this awesome establishment justice! Just leave some room for dessert and a coffee afterwards 100/5 stars, will be back again

We had one of the most incredible nights out in a long time! The staff were outstanding. Midway through our meal, the owner came out to share some history about the restaurant and the family behind it, which made us feel like we were having dinner at their home—so warm and friendly. The food was fantastic! I've never tasted mushrooms like that before; they were bursting with flavor and truly impressive. You just can't find mushrooms like that in Melbourne. I would gladly make the two-hour drive from Melbourne every weekend to dine here. Amazing!
