Il Solito Posto is a cozy Italian restaurant that has continually impressed diners with its outstanding food and excellent service. The ambiance of the place perfectly complements the warm and attentive staff. While the wine list could have more Australian options, the traditional Italian fare shines with subtle finesse. Whether it's the calamari, linguine, or slow-cooked lamb, each dish is expertly prepared and full of flavor. The desserts, like the chocolate pudding and panna cotta, are also not to be missed. Although the prices may be a bit on the high side, the overall experience at this Melbourne institution is worth it. From the charming decor to the attentive service, Il Solito Posto is a must-visit spot for anyone looking for incredible Italian cuisine in a delightful setting.

My favourite Italian in Melbourne. Food and service are consistently great for more than 8+ years. Their linguine marinara is the best in Melbourne!!
